  1. A mate used to swear by yoga retreats in chiang mai. Worth a try ?

    Baht bus prices

    I have not been on these buses in years. If I get on in jomtien and get off at say Central. How much do I pay ? I've heard 10 baht or is it 20 ?
  4. Water here in pattaya is cold in the mornings. Going from ambient temperatures of about 28c to that is a shock.
  5. Question - is it true that the funds to buy a condo ( as a foreigner ) must come from abroad ?
  6. Someone above said wise, useful because its possible to have multiple currency accounts.
  7. Im also using my Samsung galaxy and a hotspot for Internet access at the moment. What do you mean by carrier aggregation and channels ?
  8. Even the big breakfast with coffee included ?
  9. The first step is to admit there is a problem and want to change. Maybe give up the booze for a while and start an exercise regime.
  10. I was paying 10k / month at Arcadia. Now reduced to 8k.
  11. The best pools that I have found for Lane swimming in pattaya are at the arcadia continental. One is 40m and another is approx 80m .
  12. Grab / bolt / uber .. why use a taxi. I prefer a fixed price, I specify the route and I can provide feed back. Much better for the consumer.
  13. OK went to the shop call SUN I think its on the second floor at tukcom. Bought a USB caddy and retrieved my data. Phew.
  14. I'm in pattaya, I've got a laptop that just died. I want to extract the hdd and try to connect it via USB to another machine for data recovery. I wondered whether anyone can suggest where I can purchase such a cable in pattaya ?
  15. Avoid processed foods and exercise regularly. Plenty of fruit and yogurt in the diet. Try to add garlic and herbs to each meal. Keep mentally active and challenged. And finally try to avoid damaged women.
  16. I have just looked around tucom at the battered second hand laptops on offer. I have to agree, the used machines look pricey and they also look as though they suffered through a tornado. ????
  17. But selected carefully they can suit my needs
  18. Not yet, I will go and take a look
  19. I wondered whether the expat community could suggest good places to buy a secondhand laptop in pattaya. I just want to have a cheap Linux machine to supplement my existing laptop. I don't want to pay new prices. I just wondered where they stock them ? Any experience out there ?
  20. Does this mean that the value of imports exceeds exports ? I assume so.
  21. Yes , this might be an option. I will look into it ????
  22. The power has gone out at Arcadia condo and will apparently be out for a couple of hours. I thought that they would have a stand by generator. I was thinking of changing condo anyway so I guess it is time to look.
  23. I think that because central bank digital currencies are coming independent digital currencies will have a future. I hate the idea of a centrally controlled digital currency with associated social policies. I think it will herald a distopian future. But I do think that independent currencies like BTC are open to manipulation and therefore will be volatile.
  24. I was reacting to the statement Sorry, but I call BS. A distributed database (like the blockchain) will always be less efficient than a centralized one. And thinking about high volume/ high storage distributed systems in the peta byte range. No single node would achieve this hence the network. I understand that this discussion refers to the block chain so this is a bit off topic.
