My bad. Thank you for straightening me out Liverpool Lou.

Note that they imply they are referring to the BTS system with a picture but no mention of BTS in the article.

I was happy with my TCL and would have bought another if this one can't be fixed. However, I am discovering it is seemingly impossible to schedule a service call with TCL and the Google review for TCL service are amazingly bad. tcl electronics (thailand) co.,ltd reviews https://g.co/kgs/kApchnQ I wonder what their story is with the terrible after sales service. All they can say to me when I call is that somone will call me back, but no one does.

Bah. Humbug! It sits mockingly 60% up the page on the right, day in day out, on my PC.

Will the 199 baht get rid of that annoying fixed arrow on the right side of the screen?

Hope your recovery has continued and you are enjoying that quality LG TV. I am definitely a budget TV guy, for better or worse.

My 8 year old TCL has a far better picture then my 2 year old Samsung (not a QLED though) which required a new screen just out of warranty. TCL are highly rated for picture quality, anyway.

My 8 year old TCL TV has a horizontal line across the top of the screen and none of the online suggested fixes has helped it. Unfortunately, the TCL service center is extremely low rated on Google and I think I may be better off using an independent service center. I will try calling TCL again though next week. I was stuck on hold yesterday until I gave up. Any recommendations for a good company in Bangkok. Thanks.

Trump Starts Global Tariff Wall, Thailand Hit with 36% Tax
ricklev replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
The next step: Trump announces that the billions and trillions of dollars flowing into the treasury will be used to fund tax cuts for the wealthy, with a bone thrown to the poor and middle class. -
The left wants to destroy the Greatest country on Earth.
ricklev replied to riclag's topic in Political Soapbox
Just for giggles and morons. The left wants to include the poor and middle class in the wealth of the USA by creating a living wage, rationalizing health care, taxing the extremely wealthy, etc. You may certainly disagree with those policies and make good arguments against them. Why not give that a try instead of demonizing their motives. -
For Thais, most beans are a desert food. It's only in the last few years that red kidney beans started showing up in salads, I think. I might be wrong but I have been here 25 years now and it seemed that one day red kidney beans made the jump from sweet to savory.

Having lived in Texas for many years I am an avid eater of pinto beans. I tried this brand, linked below, yesterday and I am here to tell you they are both the best and the cheapest. I had been buying my pintos from Villa in Bangkok but they just keep raising the price and it is clear the beans are a bit old. I finally went looking on Lazada and this brand claims to be both organic and grown in Thailand, I don't know if that is true but they cooked up real nice at half the price of Villa! https://shorturl.at/9LgNs I have to say the many clearly bogus reviews of the beans on Lazada did give me pause, but the proof was in the beans.

Thailand Legalises Alcohol Advertising After House Approval

Microbreweries and good beer? Nope! -
Do you consider yourself smarter than the average Thai?
ricklev replied to Robert_Smith's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
I consider myself smarter than everybody! -
Not to hijack your thread, but I had been sort of reading about Dubai Chocolate for a few months now and was in 7-11 buying a chocolate bar and noticed that along with the other candy bars they were selling something labeled as Dubai Chocolate that was about the same size as a normal candy bar for 95 baht. I had to wonder who their market was. Anyway, back to dark chocolate. I still buy the Lindt because it is readily available. Never paid that much attention to the price, but I will now.

Apply for SocSec Benefits Online?
ricklev replied to NoDisplayName's topic in US & Canada Topics and Events
I did it recently. No documents were required. It was a few months wait for the phone interview appointment with Manilla. The interview was only a few minutes of confirmation of what I submitted and future work plans. A few weeks after the interview I got my first direct deposit to my USA bank for 5 months back benefits, as that is how long had passed since I submitted my start date in the online application. -
I I agree completely about the banner and the up arrow. Why? Are there people who like that floating distraction? Maybe it is just my problem and the developers know better than me. It is their investment and their money so....

Dee Money-Anybody Lose Money?
ricklev replied to ricklev's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
No, I just recalled reading lots of complaints about delayed transfers, followed by the service being unavailable so I assumed so. -
Personally, I prefer not have any fixed stuff on my screen, but maybe that is just me. So the up arrow on the left and the bar at the bottom (now) are just annoying distractions to me. However, what do I know?
-
Please reconsider your decision to put a banner in the bottom third of the screen. Thanks.

Which is the best air conditioning brand out there?
ricklev replied to up2you2's topic in The Electrical Forum
I suggested to the owner of my condo that they install a TCL 24,000 BTU inverter that was around 18,000 baht but they said that their AC technician found TCL unreliable and they installed a Central Air inverter that they said cost 25,000 baht. I assume that that the AC installer had a bigger profit on the Central Air unit, but I am curious if Central Air has a good reputation. It replaced an absurdly big and noisy floor unit mounted on the ceiling that was also a Central Air unit. (Looked like the front end of a 62 Chevy!) -
I replaced an old AC in a condo I rent and it left a few large marks on the ceiling and revealed about a meter of peeling paint that had been hidden by the old AC. Is there anywhere in Bangkok I can take a large piece of the peeled paint and have them match the color so the whole room and ceiling does not need to be repainted? I am assuming I need a serious paint store, not Homepro, although I have not checked. Thanks.
