Thailand likely detects a new, more dangerous mpox variant
Marsupienemi replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Thanks! I hope that this time the vaccine will be in suppository form, so that we can insert it directly into the right place! π€π€π·β°οΈπ€ -
oh well and why that? oh yes of course, you are the fanboy who can't stand that anyone can say anything negative about Thailand or its people. Who is still in his golden dream: everyone is beautiful, everyone is nice! It's paradise: no crimes, drugs, rapes etc. And then, it's the land of smiles, how rude could they be!! Come on, take your xanax and go to sleep (make no mistake: pink is xanax, blue is viagra). And yes, non-constructive criticism leads to this type of response. Finally, if you are not able to evaluate the quality of the service or the welcome of a place, avoid making comments, especially if they are insulting, well hidden behind your computer. The specialty of this site, although basically, it is just about sharing points of view and experiences. You may learn one day that there is not 1 Thailand, but 1000+ Thailand and depending on where you live (north, south, east, west), the people you meet, the fact of speaking the language etc. you can have completely opposite experiences.

No one. I'm talking about rude attitude. About the manager I became friend with, it's just because we were living in the same building at the same floor.

The super classical troll from this website! The post is interesting because, yes the Thais became more rude, and at the 7/11 it's the worst of the worst! I even had one who closed her cashier as soon as I arrived to pay. I did nothing wrong, just pure racism. I saw the day coming when I was going to throw the entire content of my basket in her face and to avoid any incident, I walked 200 meters more to go to another one. And don't make any mistake, at my previous address, I had made friends with a Manager and they perfectly know the customers, especially those who spend more than the average! Fortunately, this 7/11 has changed ownership and the whole team has changed. Now they're just perfectly unpleasant, like almost all of 7/11. No need to tell me that in your 7, the girls are nice, I met them too, 10+ years ago. The Thais have changed a lot over the last 10 years: the cell phone, the economic recession and the Covid having been there, I don't blame them, it's understandable. On the other hand, whether in my country or here, I have the habit of not giving my money to frankly unsympathetic shops! I studied business, I worked for chain stores as an assistant then manager, and - in my country - it is inconceivable not to answer "hello", not to say "thank you" and "goodbye!" I live in a Thai Thai area, I know perfectly well that people are less rich and more rude, but I educate them with a "Bye-Bye" and a big smile and if at first they laugh, after a while, they do the same. Finally, I avoid chain stores as much as possible. I prefer mini-marts, the covered market and small family restaurants. It's to be preferred, especially since the prices are almost the same. And that has nothing to do with thinking you're someone else. And, if you live in central Bangkok, Pattaya or Phuket, with the flux of customers, I understand that they prefer to work faster than to be polite, but 1/ they are none of them and 2/ not everybody live in these places. If you don't understand my point of view, before answering, ask yourself if your not also considered as rude with others.

What he said is a warning about the situation in GB and in general in Europe. Sweden who was the most peaceful country with the highest standard of living in Europe is on fire since these fluxes of "refugees". I recently saw a report in England with demonstrations by Afghans with known terrorist leaders, who each time provoke the police a little more in order to trigger clashes. Germany, France, the Netherlands, Denmark etc. are in the same situation. This remark is a way of sounding the alarm.

Have you ever heard about the BRICS? Have you realized that each and every time a country who talked about the need of using a different currency than the USD for international trading and especially petrol, this country received a visit of the US army ? Zelinski and Macron are USA pawns and yes they sacrificed Ukraine to slow down Russia and the BRICS+ in their desire of creating a new currency for international trading, based on gold and not owned by any country. And it's just a matter of time before they succeed. Just have a look on recent big purchases of gold by the USA and the EU central bank to understand they don't believe they will be able to stop them... A question remains, how far the USA are ready to go to save the USD ? WWIII ?

Are You Reading AI-created Fake News?
Marsupienemi replied to Lee65's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
In reality, I think you are mixing 2 notions: plagiarism and texts generated by AI. Regarding plagiarism, there are indeed tools that allow you to tell whether a text is original or copied. In any case, it is integrated into the Google engine and a plagiarized text will not be referenced or very poorly. Concerning AI, there are detection tools to know if a text was generated by AI or by a human. However, it is entirely possible to circumvent them. AI is a no-code tool (more than real Artificial Intelligence as we imagine it: a robot that thinks). Used well, it's fantastic. The problem is that everyone has their opinion on AI, but few know how to use it optimally and, above all, know everything that can be asked of it. Finally, human beings have this constant habit of always wanting to divert things and we all pay the consequences. This is also why the internet has become a real trash can. -
A guy who lives in Thailand who comes to make a cold-blooded comment about morality... I definitely would have seen, read and heard everything here!! You should go live in Iran or Afghanistan, that seems to suit your morals more. By the way, anyone familiar with people who have lived on this island knows exactly who the culprit is and exactly what happened. This has been described in other comments. Let's stop this charade. 2 innocent people in prison for 10 years, this story makes me vomit.

Cat adoption Bangkok (Suk preferred)
Marsupienemi replied to HermosaBeachGuy's topic in Plants, Pets & Vets in Thailand
For anyone who wants to adopt a cat or dog, I highly recommend you search on Facebook: Patricia Peksa. she takes care of taking in animals that have been abandoned. They are all cared for when necessary. It's free but you can make a donation. I thus recovered 2 cats (brothers & sisters) who had been abandoned by their master because they had a virus. They were treated and then entrusted to a temporary foster family. They were 3 months old when I got them, they are currently 3 years old...and I can't do without them anymore, even if at first it was a bit hell π. I previously had 2 females and this is what I recommend. They are more βtogetherβ. The ones I had never left each other's side, slept together, washed each other. Boys and girls, it's a bit like humans π...they ignore each other a little. They chase each other from time to time but not much more. The male sleeps with me very often and was jealous for a very long time, he chased his sister out of my bed whenever she came. With the cold coming back for a few days, it's the first time they've both slept with me π -
First thing you should do : =>Google maps "guitar store Pattaya" then "guitar store bangkok". I've made a quick look and it's true that there is not a lot of shops in Pattaya. But in Bangkok you have a lot of shops (with pictures & reviews). Don't forget to look at the second hand market on Facebook and Kaidee. Last but not least, a look on Lazada and shopee. Many of the shops in bkk also have shops on these market places (search by brands might be better). Careful, there are a lot of counterfeit. Here are the 2 tips to keep in mind: 1. They usually never sell a copy at the price of an original (like on Amazon) 2. Scroll to the specs, if you have: Eg. Brand : no name (or oem)=fake Or brand: Fender (or whatever the brand)=original π

Do you use ChatGPT on your computer ?
Marsupienemi replied to observer90210's topic in IT and Computers
ChatGPT isn't really a tool for having fun asking him questions. In fact, in the early days, GPT3 on the open AI playground was more designed for this purpose, and it was possible to create really engaging discussions with sometimes bluffing answers. ChatGPT can be seen as an intelligent tool, or more as a series of tools. These tools are mainly designed to save precious time for people working alone on the Internet from home, and for certain companies by performing certain tasks more efficiently. And if you look at it objectively, it's a frontal attack on everything Google has put in place over the last 5-6 years under the name of "quality", which has had exactly the opposite effect. The number of skills required to exist on the Internet has become simply mind-boggling, and for several years I'd been thinking that the only way to survive would be to create teams where everyone brought a different skill to the table. ChatGPT is the answer to this problem, offering you the chance to have assistants working for you. And as with all assistants, the more precise your instructions, the higher the quality of the result. To visualize, the best thing to do is visit sites that store examples of prompts according to theme. There's prompt Genius on Reddit, for example, or a site like datafit, as well as numerous Facebook groups. -
Mr. "Justice of the Peace" has arrived. Bow down before him. Lick his feet or beware his wrath! You'll suffer his nasty jibes and lose your face! He and he alone knows which subjects are interesting and which are not! Hey man, just because your life is limited to the number of beers you drink every day and the younger and younger girls you look at, or because you don't have any perspective on life, that you don't ask yourself any questions, because your brain is more like mush than anything else, doesn't mean that at any moment you have to think you can allow yourself this kind of comment on a forum. It's the difference between saying "it's good / It's not good" and "I like / I don't like" Do you get it ? #dondiegodelavega π When I think that this continues while there was a message about the "new" moderation of the forum...nothing has changed and nothing will ever change, forums are in fact where jerks finally have the right to express themselves. And they don't hold back, to say the least. And the guy is an "advance member" with 5.6k messages sent...OMG

It's a subject that comes up from time to time when you reach a certain age. And the richer and more exciting your life, the duller things can seem. I don't have the answer to the question, but it brings to mind an artist I discovered recently. I must be living in a cave not to have discovered him sooner, or the YouTube algorithm must have judged that we weren't compatible (sic). - I invite you to watch the video and analyze your reaction. - Read the comments (many will feel less alone). - Watch videos of comments on the video (these are people who film themselves watching a video for the first time on the advice of their subscribers). I avoid these channels in general, but especially for this artist, it's worth it. I particularly agree with what one person wrote in a comment: Through reactions, we try to re-experience what we ourselves felt the first time. - Finally, I invite you to learn more about this artist and what he's going through. DISCLAIMER : the subject and the way it is treated may seem shocking. It's not a slap in the face, it's a Mike Tyson left hook. For the record, this video made over 10 million hits in less than a year. The artist's name is Ren and the song is "Hi Ren". Enjoy. This would certainly deserve a dedicated topic.

It's funny how nothing changes on this forum. Everyone is always inclined to mock the slightest person who expresses a sentiment that doesn't go along with the leaders of this forum. If that isn't a form of intellectual dictatorship... A forum is made for expressing different points of view, and if you disagree, all you have to do is put forward opposing arguments, which creates a constructive and interesting discussion. It's amusing to note the extent to which you felt targeted by the word "grumpy". Where I come from, we say "only the truth hurts"... Even your sense of humor is out of date, and it smelt the finish line for many. Here's to you old farts! (go on, do yourself a favor, I'm unlikely to read you, I only come here very rarely to see if the same morons are still alive or if there's a glimmer of hope)
