  1. What? Your D finally came....unDone? Nothing is impossible on .... The Farang Pub. Shameful.....
  2. Back on Topic, if there is a Topic.... It's very unlikely that the use of a tiny screen on a phone might be of any use in doing any meaningful research into any topic of import. The smaller the screen.... The narrower the mind.... This is my thought for today.
  3. No worries...because.... I am sure that you will NEVER be on my "ignore" list.... Thank you, by the way....
  4. Sorry...but just to clarify a bit: Here, we are talking about storage on Google Drive in....REAL TIME. Therefore...is this info from the Google AI a bit BOGUS, in that.... While it is true that video data can be stored on Google Drive (obviously)... Is it, or is it NOT, actually possible to stream output from security cams, in REAL TIME, using an internet connection....??? Surely someone here knows the answer. I have never tried doing this. In the past, I stored all data on a Panasonic Digital Security Cam Recorder....one which was VERY expensive.... But that was way back in the Dark Ages..... Back in the day, when one wanted to buy a Panasonic (TAPE) recorder.... It cost a LOT more than this machine. Also, the Panasonic security cameras were fantastic....! I have always been extremely impressed by the Panasonic quality....coming out of Japan...back in the day. These days...maybe not the same....
  5. Every morning, I reach down.... And I am still very pleasantly surprised to find that.... I have a flagpole between.....
  6. Hi Folks, Just an update about this kind of camera...and the fact that I think it might be impossible to directly stream the output from my cameras to my Google Drive accounts. a. For one thing, I have several TBytes of storage on my Google Drive accounts. Therefore, I have plenty of space to store several years of video...IF I wanted to. b. But, it seems to me that it might NOT be possible to connect the streaming output from the Tapo cameras, for upload, real-time, to Google Drive. c. If this is the case, then...what is the point of having a security camera of this brand? Here is all that I have been able to find....thus far.... AND....can anyone here provide any enlightenment? Because, if there is actually no workaround...to directly upload from my Tapo cameras....to Google Drive...then.....these cameras will be of very little use to me. Still, these Tapo cameras are SUPER CHEAP in price....and super cheap in quality, too...IMHO. I am used to using Panasonic Security Cameras and Recording technology. So, this is a first for me...using this El Cheapo Solution. Here is what I found on the internet, using the Google AI: I purchased 3 Tapo cameras.... They are basically TOYs, to me...compared to Panasonic Quality Security Cameras. Still, IF I can get them to upload, on an ongoing basis, without interruption, to my Google Drive accounts...then.... I will be OK with this, for the time being. Therefore.... Any thoughts and suggestions? Or, I might just try to buy TWO very decent security cameras, then connect them to one of my computers, and then also ensure that the video stream gets uploaded, real-time..to my Google Drive. Or, am I thinking wrong about this? Tks for any thoughts from those who have much more experience with this new El Cheapo tech. OR, if you work as a security consultant for a bank, or Fort Knox, then ..... I would be doubly appreciative for any input you might provide. Grateful, in advance.....! Note: Also, just my opinion....I think the resolution on these cameras might not be up to snuff. (But, then, what can one expect at this price-point...anyway? You get what you pay for in this life.....as you may have noticed, by now.) ((Note: Although I prefer appearing on The Farang Pub...almost exclusively...... Still, I would say that this Topic may have morphed into the realm of.....DIY FORUM....or similar. I think this Topic might help others to think about how to (potentially) use Google Drive to store/upload/record output from Security Cams. (although I might be mistaken)))
  7. Drivel is as Dribble does..... Who is to say what is drivel, anyway? For example, could it actually be possible that my postings are far more profound than you are able to perceive? And, if for some reason, you are unable to glean the profundity of my Topics, then whose fault is that? Mine? I think not....in fact.
  8. Dear Friends, Ever wonder why kids today can’t think straight? I will tell you. Kids today spend most of their useless days staring at miniscule screens, all the FING livelong day. What do you imagine this might get one? ZERO…. That’s what! Just a moment ago, I tried to research some unimportant topic. But, I tried to do it on a miniscule phone, an A55 5G phone. Where did that get me? NOWHERE, that’s where. I am only saying that…when I was a lad…. And when I wanted to do a bit of research… I would head to the nearest library… I would search for about 10 or 20 pertinent research books…. Then, I would spread out all these books on a very large library table… And go to work. Even today, I use a minimum of FOUR FING Computer screens, not one less than about 27 inches, diagonally measured. And then…I just go to town on researching whatever it is that I am trying to uncover. So…I am just saying that I FINALLY have found out why kids today are so FING …. STUPID. The reason is that they spend most of their time staring at miniscule screens which….ONLY… Provides them with just ONE FING PERSPECTIVE….for FING SAKE!!!!! Really bugs me just how FING asinine this type of “research” is…. No FING….WAY….anybody…no matter how intelligent….could POSSIBLY research ANYTHING….on a FING tiny screen…. Simply IMPOSSIBLE….!!!!!!!! Am I RIGHT? Or, am I RIGHT???? Do you agree with me??? For FING Sake? Someday… A Real Rain is Going to Come…. And clean away all this MAGICAL THINKING…… Best regards, But…perturbed, just a bit by all this nonsense…. Gamma Note4: EVEN using an Apple laptop is NO WAY to do any meaningful research ... .there is just not enough screen space on one lousy screen to open all the books you need to make comparisons in real time…… Doing research this way is a complete FING JOKE….in fact. Go to the library, and spread out a dozen books in front of you…. Or, at the very least: Buy a minimum of FOUR FING 29-inch screens….and a super-computer, such as I have…and then….. GO TO TOWN!!!!! (And, don't let the pimps from Apple...get in your way.)
  9. I fear there is really the slight chance that you could be correct. YES. There actually IS the chance. See you tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow...until... There is no tomorrow.
  10. Dental pain has always been the bane of my existence. If life were not such a pleasure for me, then....I might... Just choose to off myself, due to the dental pain I have experienced in my life.... (this is a joke). Still, I can't think of anything worse than acute dental pain for reaching the pinnacle of pain, in value, on a scale of one to ten. Really nothing like it. I feel for you, Man! I pray that you get relief FIRST THING,,,,,tomorrow morning. Meanwhile, I also hope you are able to make it through the night. IF the pain gets too bad...then just head on out to Ram Hospital... And ask for an injection of morphine.... YES...I have actually had to do this once before during the past years. They are very understanding at this hospital...by the way.
  11. By the way: What is your vote for the most EARTH-SHAKING flight of the day, once every 24 hours? My vote goes to the aircraft heading out from CM to Korea....around.... 11:30PM to 12:30AM, every day. You can check on FlightRadar https://www.flightradar24.com/ In order to identify these aircraft. Of course, they are still not as noisy as a fully loaded Boeing 777....which have not been flying around these parts for some time. They rattle the windows. Such a true pleasure because.... At least, when one's windows get rattled, then... One realizes that one is still alive. So, thank you for this.....by golly.
  12. Or, put a different way...using... Geek-Speak: Just two BOZOs... Nothing to see here....
  13. But was it even a fight?
  14. It is A policy. Whether or not one considers it a GOOD policy depends upon what one is trying to accomplish.
  15. It looks like rain now in CM. When it looks like rain... Then... The power will fail. But, this is not a cause and effect relationship.
  16. I think this new policy is complete idiocy. Also, I think this new policy was slipped by due to having a senile person at the helm. If this escalates the war, then we will have only GERIATRICS to thank for the cause. We need somebody, anybody, even Trump, one who is not cognitively impaired...restored to the WH... ASAP. Or, Boom Goes London. Boom, Paris.... More room for you, and more room for me....
  17. It might make even more sense if they were regarded as MAYLAY....or Maylays....
  18. In all honesty....(and since I am always honestly candid).... I would definitely opt for Samsung refrigerators and washing machines...in the future...IF in Thailand. I think the price cannot be beat. And, the not-bad quality has really surprised me. I will say that I would not use a Samsung (or any) coin-operated machine in these parts...ever again. And, I really do not like ACs unless they are absolutely premium brands. I had a few bad experiences with Samsung ACs a long time ago. Very cheap in price, sure, but I just need PREMIUM brands for ACs, and nothing else. I like Top Loaders...as do most girls in Thailand. I load from the TOP....always...
  19. Is that Bt.10,000.00 cash, per week, every week, until their demise?
  20. This is a real thing. Some girls will stand and watch for hours. Fortunately, the newer models have an alarm to wake up hypnotized women in time for dinner.
  21. It's just a cost-cutting measure, more than anything else.
  22. Who even has one.... These days? We are not barbarians... Are we?
