Many times it is SLOW drivers who cause accidents. Does your driving at 30 kph reduce the pain level when a Lambo hits you at 177 kph? PML
even a lambo cant make it to 177 km/h on the small sois i voluntarily restrict
my driving to, and from my experience the accidents happen during lane cutting,
i am not the cause of someone else cutting my lane
regardless of my speed

You do understand that Thailand has one of the highest, if not the highest, death tolls on the road, so the colour blindness test (very few countries have this) and reaction tests are meaningless in terms of making better drivers.
i believe every single nation has color test, or else the roads would constantly
have incidents because none can see the brakes light on the car in front,
leading to rear ramming, people would be violating traffic lights at crossings,
luckily we see none of that.
a bigger issue is people, including tvf members, think signaling and proceeding with caution
gives right of way to cut and cross lanes, i believe there is no cure for this level of illogical
line of thought, because at its heart its a lack of analytical skill and rationality

since my accidents are invariably inflicted by another trafficant, i dont have to worry,
its their insurance company that has to pay.
that said its painful like hell and unavoidable too, so i dont drive much
and when i do i drive slow to reduce pain level that is coming without fail

Has very little with how you drive on the road, Thailand is proof of that.
there is no understanding of the concept of right of way,
but i think there is no hope for that part, on the contrary
i see a conversion from understanding to clueless among tvf members
on this very forum, it seem to be as infectious as corona

a) if you still have warranty
b) if you don't need the data of that dead disk
i thought it was lost money when i went to computer repair yesterday,
the repair guy informed me its a 3 year warranty, the laptop is 2.5 years.
now if i can only remember which shop i bought it at.
i have no hope on the data, but its ok

Do you think passing a colour and reaction test is enough to ensure you are a good driver?
since they already qualified for driving license, i say yes.
the two main relevant things that will deteriorate with time, as in retirement age,
is reaction and eyes, these two tests will filter out nearly all unfit to drive on public roads

Driving education and testing is a joke. Enforcing the rules even more.
i disagree on theory, i think its adequate

a somewhat easier method i will apply shortly is to take the warranty's word for it

The global pandemic has taken a particularly heavy toll on the United States, where it has killed more than 160,000 people and thrown tens of millions out of work.
just to be clear, the virus didnt threw tens of millions out of work,
elected governments around the world did that part

you are wrong abut that.
two doctors had analyzed covid risk and qestioned lockdown policies,
that video was on youtube but was taken down, silenced,
for not adhering to politician narrative

How, the borders are closed to farangs, only thais allowed in. So its more likely a thai would have the virus.
its racism pure and simple.
i still wish my country would make a complete copy of this policy and implement it forcefully

And now back to the op: what did Trump say and is that true?
He said children are almost immune, which is not true,hence the post got pulled.
Your post is a nice attempt at deflection.
swedens statistics show trump is correct and you wrong

no, it has become a tool for political leaders to silence opposing views,
and tech companies should certainly not dictate what is politically correct to say either

at over 8000 mAh battery, that is one of iphones best phones,
but it has only 3 GB RAM which is budget phone stats
and frankly too low, i use more then that and i barely use the phone.
Doogee BL9000 has 9000 mAh battery and 6 GB RAM,
if she care more about performance then brand then its going to make her happier

If Trump loses in November, will the world's view of the US change? Or will the US continue to be seen as people now see it?
It seems like Covid shuts down economies regardless of the actions taken. Shut everything down to protect the health of your people and the economy will suffer. Refuse to shut down to keep things open and the economy will still suffer and you'll have millions sick, hundreds of thousands dead, hospitals overwhelmed, schools closed....
And which is the knee jerk reaction in this case? Shutting down based on what the science is saying about a virus, or insisting that nothing is wrong based on... well, nothing actually?
sweden is fully operational and in fact gdp went up a bit
at covid outbreak. its going to contract due to rest of the world knee jerk reaction and sweden being an exporter will be affected as the rest of the world suffer economic famine
from the lunacy that has taken hold.
you could say an almost world wide self inflicted economic trauma,
and an immoral one at that since the
bill is sent to future generations

There seems to be 2 opposite opinions re your situation. Some very experienced guys say that your on amnesty and hence can obtain your annual extension anytime. I'm in the other camp that thinks you need to do it as per usual. Meaning prior to your permission of stay in your passport.
Personally I would attend your imm now and ask about your situation. Also explaining the situation with your expiring pp. It has been difficult to renew passports in recent times.
Good luck
the agent took the passport to immigration in due time, it was immigration that noted that it was going to expire within a year.
worst thing is i new it was going to expire within a year, i just thought i need to get a new passport by then and transfer the visa, but alas i fessed up.
to complicate things i also couldnt just make half a year visa in the mean time because my driving license has also expired and need a one year visa to get a 5 year extension,
it sucks to not be home

i am in a similar predicament.
my retirement extension expired a few days ago,
i gave passport to agent to renew it,
but got informed the passport was about to expire.
i have applied for a new passport and its going to come
in another 2 weeks.
is there any complications to pick up where i left off
when i finally get my passport back ?

I think that the word "moot" has been misunderstood (or perhaps misused.). To moot means to cancel. In other words, he is rejecting the proposal to end dual pricing.
yes, it was only in the following sentences that i knew what he meant.

he understand that international tourism is down
for the foreseeable future, bar those that already made
part time in thailand tradition,
its only residents that can pick up the slacks a bit.
even if double pricing were to end today,
its not going to make a difference,
certainly not for the majority who are thais,
and not for us long stayers either cause we
already dismissed two tier places
and are now set in our ways

New laptop computer needed
in Pattaya
Posted
i usually buy my laptops at tuk com since i cant order from lazada without a computer,
but now with lazada phone app i believe i could get it cheaper on lazada,
its just that there might be a time constraint, such as in need of a computer to transfer my pension in a timely manner, in which case i would still go to tuk com
