Thai tax tangle: Expats warned of new rules on overseas income
This thread? True, I shouldn't have limited my comment to this thread. The same problem occurs on many AN threads and most other internet forums also.

Thai tax tangle: Expats warned of new rules on overseas income
I think mostly this. There are a lot of trolls on this thread making intentionally illogical arguments just to get attention and prompt responses.

Visa extension
As I said earlier, they weren't requiring a passport photo when I last extended there. They also made the passport copies for us free of charge. The location is very convenient, in a popular, central mall. They usually have an English speaking person out front greeting people. The OP could stop by and double check current requirements if he wants to be certain.

Did We Really Land on the Moon?
Nobody here actually believes that. The people here saying they don't believe it are just the usual trolls who contradict everything to get attention and argumentative responses. Everyone needs to learn to ignore the trolls.

Visa extension
Yes. Or alternately book a cheap hotel for a night or two if you find that too difficult.

Visa extension
No photo or TM30 was required at blue port Hua Hin the last couple of times I extended there. I don't know what they did about the photo the TM7 asks for, but they didn't require it. All they asked for was passport, copy of hotel booking, and 1900 baht.

Visa extension
The immigration office in blue port mall in Hua Hin does extensions. As of about 5 months ago when I extended there, they just required a copy of local hotel booking, passport, and 1900 baht fee. No Tm30 copy required. There is a copy center in the mall if you need to print your hotel booking.

Holiday in the Phil's, where?
Puerta Galera has really good scuba diving. You are missing the highlight if you don't dive there. Port Barton is very quiet. Completely the opposite of Boracay. Not much to do but sit on the beach or go island hopping. It's a great place if that's what you like.

Apple laptop
I just got a new macbook pro last year and I love it. I had a couple of different airs previously, and I much prefer the pro. One thing that is better with the pro is the cooling. If you do any intensive work with an air, it will get hot. The pro stays cool no matter what I do. Battery life is also better with the pro. I can work all day long without charging.

Trump Goes After Apple and Others Dodging Taxes in Ireland
You are forgetting about the software that runs the device. The software is by far the most valuable part of an iphone and without it all those chinese parts would be worthless.

Trump Goes After Apple and Others Dodging Taxes in Ireland
I did read it. It doesn't contradict what I stated. You might want to read it yourself. Again. All of apple's income from sales in the US are taxed in the US. International sales are taxed through it's subsidiary in Ireland.

Trump Goes After Apple and Others Dodging Taxes in Ireland
Apple's income from the US is already taxed in the USA. Only its income from outside the US is taxed in Ireland.

Did We Really Land on the Moon?
99% of those people just like making ridiculous answers to polls to mess with the pollsters. Same as many of the trolls here who obviously don't believe the conspiracy theories they espouse, but do it to mess with other posters.

It's better to fly to Cebu. There are direct flights from Bangkok and many other destinations. Cebu is a nice airport with connections to most tourist destinations in Phils. Manlia is one of the worst airports in the world. Avoid it unless you are going to angels, subic, or Puerta galera which can all be reached by taxi from there. Whatever you do avoid domestic flights from Manila terminal 4--I still literally have nightmares about that place.

Holiday in the Phil's, where?
Overcrowded and packed with hordes of filipinos. My personal least favorite place in Phils except for manila.

ChatGPT agrees that more COVID vaccination --> more cases
ChatGPT is wrong about almost everything. If you are trying to convince people covid vaccines are bad, you would have been better off just keeping this a secret.

Did We Really Land on the Moon?
How are you saying astronomers from all over the world were watching it? On TV? The moon lander is too small to be seen with earth based telescopes.

More PCness - or should it be Woke-ness?
That's just what your political news feeds have trained you to believe. They have taught you to keep repeating woke over and over like a mindless robot, and now you think it means anything you disagree with.

More PCness - or should it be Woke-ness?
I got it straight from wikidepia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woke

More PCness - or should it be Woke-ness?
Woke is all about awareness of racial injustice, sexism, and LGBTQ rights. It has nothing whatsoever to do with being notified about the basic responsibilities of owning a dog.
-
More PCness - or should it be Woke-ness?
It sounds like a simple document that explains what owning a dog entails. What's the point of complaining about that? You need to look up the definition of woke. Some of you guys have been trained to just keep repeating the word "woke" without even knowing what It means.

Why is trump so orange looking?
It's just another intentional distraction on his part. It gets people talking about how ridiculous he looks, so they have less time to focus on his crimes and his hatred of our constitution.

Let me guess...Virginia? North Carolina? Somewhere in the Appalachians for sure. I can tell that based on your limited english.

What country are you from? Since the inception of my country its always been one flag that “all can take pride in”. I don’t pledge allegiance to any other! What country are you from? It must not be the USA. In many states such as Texas, I see the state flag more often than the American flag.

*Inauguration Day *- January 20, 2025
And you think without that executive order someone would be flying a rainbow flag at the white house while trump is president? They would obviously immediately be fire if they did. That EO is a complete ridiculous waste of time.
