  1. I use the 3BB router. I will not need WIFI, except for phone, after I install my LAN network. Also, I do not use laptops, as you already know by now. Hate laptops.
  2. Yes. Re Bedding, I found that out, just today. I guess beds are not important in Thailand, since most people just sleep on the wooden floors. And cover themselves with grass mats, presumably.
  3. Thank you. I did mention in an earlier comment that I have used UGREEN products I buy from the UGREEN store on Lazada. I think the quality is OK. But, I just need the cable. And then, I will crimp on the connectors AFTER stringing the cable. This is an older house, and there is not much space in existing conduits. I might need to drill new holes, but hope I will not need to do so. Either way, I want to buy cable and connectors separately.
  4. Lower latency. Also, as I mentioned, there are many repeated problems with the WIFI from my router, at least here in this area. 3BB replaced router twice already. It's just not stable. And, my motherboard offers WIFI 6E, so it is not the computer. Also, for networking.... I want higher transfer speeds, up to 2Gbps..... So, LAN network is better when faster.
  5. Today, I tried to buy a King Size (SERTA) mattress protector/cover from Amazon. Really nice price. And, I would be happy to pay for the freight cost, too. I need a good one to protect from dust mites. But, the TAX to deliver here in Thailand was 120 percent. So, tax/duty on this was more than the total cost of the product and tax, in fact. What are they thinking? I am prepared to buy EVERYTHING from Amazon, in the future, simply due to relative lack of customer service from most retailers here. I like to buy from TOPS and LOTUS, because I think that they give me good customer service, and after-sales service. But, without naming names, some other stores are not up to this level. Of course, now that JIB, at least at the JIB I frequent, has begun giving me great service, then I will have no qualms, in the future, about continuing to buy from JIB. JIB has really upped their game, at least at the shop I go to. I just wish that Amazon could think of a way to take over 80 percent of retailing here in Thailand. Because, I think this would be a real help to local consumers. Also, I bet Amazon could do very well here. Of course, AMAZON was a total fail in China, even though it seems they tried hard. Maybe their problem was that they chose the wrong guys with whom to cooperate....there in China. Whoever was running the operation in China did not give it the old College TRY!
  6. Just an update: I bought this model a month ago: https://www.samsung.com/th/washers-and-dryers/washing-machines/wa6000c-top-load-ecobubble-digital-inverter-technology-super-speed-16kg-dark-gray-wa16cg6745bdst/ I am extremely pleased with it. Very quiet. I would buy again. Super Good price for the value. I am happy I chose this over a front/side-loading machine... The only thing is: The control panel lights are mostly RED. I don't like red lights. Red reminds me too much of the Chinese Communist Party flag, and also Christmas. I hate Christmas lights. One color I like is the sort of PLUM color on the Meridian Gate of the Forbidden City. Such a beautiful color. But, of course, this color was not chosen by The Gang of Four, and their ilk. Truly one of my favorite colors... But all the red lights on the washing machine sort of cheapens the look of it... And I can only assume that the display panel was designed for some low-class housewives in Burma, or some place. I do like the color of the steel casing and lid, however. Why, OH WHY, would Samsung choose RED for the lights on this machine? This is my only suggestion to Samsung...for future consideration. WHITE LED lights would have been better. This machine has a very nice inverter, too, which seems to regulate power to the motor quite well. Now, if ONLY I had 10-times more clothes to wash, then I would be happier, even...maybe...
  7. Here, just in, is the GEEK's perspective on the sinking of Mike. Or, had Mike sunk himself, even before the disaster? The GEEK always does his homework. And, the GEEK is always full of irony. Enjoy...
  8. Go Trump GO! If Harris, then I will not be able to leave the USA. I have already left. So, If Harris, then I will move to Mars or Neptune. No matter what, nothing could be worse than Harris. Even RFK JR can sense this.
  9. Why can't I find beer like this in Thailand? But, would the EIS go well with beer in Germany? And, why is real German beer so expensive here? I will not pay more than they pay in Germany. Anyway, after 24 hours, no pain...so....beer not required (urgently).
  10. Good point. Then, if Cat6... What is the best cable? Once it goes in, and installed, it would be very difficult to replace and re-install.
  11. I prefer to reduce latency using Ethernet. Also, WIFI suffers from signal interference from other local WIFI users. Also, Ethernet is more secure. And, faster transmission speeds than WIFI, even if I had a router/modem that is faster than 1Gbps, which I do not. Also, I love the LOOKS of these colored cables hooked into my machines.
  12. So what happened with the dry socket? And, don't you think it might have been the hot pizza pie and not the cold Chang that caused this in the first place? Or, it might have been that you ate hot (high temp) food on the following days, like hot soup, etc.
  13. Wouldn't you say that these dogs are far less dangerous than humans? Yet, nobody talks about banning people, or disallowing homo sapiens to breed. Aren't we trying to create a more equitable society with the likes of Harris? So, you cannot have it both ways. ALSO: Eating people is wrong, although widespread and sacred in some cultures... https://aeon.co/ideas/eating-people-is-wrong-but-its-also-widespread-and-sacred And, then you got your Jeff Dahmer types... So probably the dog in question didn't even eat Daintree.... Or, more likely, didn't have the time to do so.
  14. A fool and his dog are soon parted. Funny, though, how dog and master often look alike. https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/article/2024/aug/21/police-investigate-as-man-killed-by-his-xl-bully-dog
  15. Some guys love long ones. Mike had the 2nd LONGEST mast in the world. He probably wanted a LONGER one. How much did Lynch really know about sailing? As much as Ted? Mike should have competed in the 1979 Fastnet if he wanted a thrill. Nice analysis of what is known about the Salute (renamed Bayesian), so far. Just because you can buy a Superyacht doesn't mean you are man enough to sail one. Ted Turner could sail, though. https://yachtracing.life/fastnet-race-not-too-long-to-wait/ https://www.yachtcharterfleet.com/luxury-charter-yacht-22774/bayesian.htm This Superyacht.....NOT for charter?
  16. What is your special strategy for reaching your decisions? Joss Sticks? OR.... IIAOBEI.... ((No worries, Folks....because....very soon I will be removing all these NITWIT watermarks, before I post any images....Please be patient until I do. Thank you.
  17. Bald, Fat, Sweaty, and more.... Marlon would become all these things, in due time. But, why do we not remember him for what he once was....before... His Last Tango in Paris....?
  18. Yes. I agree. Trump is our last Great White Hope !!!!
  19. What about Warm Beer, or WARMBIER? My heart goes out to Warm Beer! Poor Otto. Such a dastardly travesty. Some day, Trump will provide them with .... Payback.... BIG TIME! Vote TRUMP !!!!
  20. At least, Trump has a heart. Harris has...... What? Nothing. Someday soon, she will be seen for what she is....... Like the Emperor with no clothes, and no ideas. Speaking of Harris with no clothes...... Ewwwwww!!!!!!!
  21. I love tools. I once had a crimping tool. But, I will not again buy one. You are correct. I will get the installer to do the crimping. I just need the most reliable cable.....
  22. In the past, I bought cable from UGREEN (in China), but this is just a trading company....as far as I know...but could be mistaken, of course.
