  1. Yea, that's scary, as they consider low to be 90/60 ... ... what's your O2 level when BP that low ?
  2. That's fine ... IF, you prefer noise & vibration over actual performance
  3. And another EV thread ruined by EV trolls ... ... well done 😎
  4. A couple generations changed things. 50s & 60s, divorce was still embarrassing vs today, where it's almost expected Lots of broken homes in the 80s and beyond. Along with living together is accepted in MSM.
  5. Nah ... there's rarely more than a couple 100 thousand baht on hand. More than 200, and it's a pain to carry in my little bag, w/PP/license/wallet & such. Since at the bank the other day, for Imm, made a withdrawal, and now have about 200k COH. Won't need to make another withdrawal for 3 or 4 months, and that will go directly into the play account, as wife has that account at BBL also. I tend not to lose things, so not much of an issue, security wise.
  6. Agree, and they offer a nice online service for PP renewal, as too easy, abet, a bit pricey. Just the DHL thing, and why fix what isn't broken, and will cost more.
  7. I'm thinking 'RV', camper top, maybe bed or just cooking area & makeshift shower. Tire of searching for 'pet friendly' accommodations. We're off the beaten track most of the time, and comfy beds don't seem to be a priority at many hotels. I like the promo in the one vid, actually 2, as the seats almost lay flat in the cab. One vid having campers on the truck bed already. May not even need a bed in the back truck bed. Something about the truck beds here in TH, so damn small / short. Actually hard to find one 2 meters. I'd much rather not have the SUV ish cab, and a longer, more practical work bed, since just the 2 of us. Although, If I can sleep in the cab, that could be major plus also. See what's on offer next year. Sleeping in the MG ZS doesn't work for me. Just a wee bit too big, and plus we'd need to put a roof rack the car, and no desire fore that, packing & unpacking.
  8. WOW ... Xiaomi to the rescue ... Don't think I've ever seen -0- across the board before 👍👍
  9. I'm cash guy at 7-11, as best way to break 1000 baht note. Needed for smaller vendors, as don't want to use up all the small notes paying with 1000 baht notes. One less transaction in my bank account makes things easier at visa extension time. My bank passbook usually has 12 or so deposits, and about 4 withdrawals for the whole year. Keeps the paperwork down ... save a tree ...
  10. Not sure it's all about men rejecting marriage. May be more about women being self sufficient, and realizing, they don't need men as past generations thought they did. I found independent, self sufficient woman putting off marriage, family life & kids till much later, if at all. Unskilled, unmotivated woman seem to look forward to being married ... until they realize ... oops, and want out. Then that 50/50 piece of paper comes in real handy. 75/25 if they popped out a few rug rats RUN FORREST RUN
  11. Shh ... you'll expose the facts. 4-6 months of unhealthy air vs the ... ... 'not a problem' ... 'I see blue skies' ... 'only a couple months a year' It's only a couple months a year where I live. Any further north, and it's horrendous, almost 6 months a year, if not more in some spots. This is still Sept, and burning season is sometimes till the end of May, when the later then normal rainy season kick in. Late Sept, Nov Dec Jan Feb Mar Apr early May Even here, slight break in rainy season, so folks are taking advantage and burning what they couldn't the past weeks ... This part isn't too much of an issue ... But this is, and we turn the air purifiers on for ... Locally, we're a bit better ...
  12. They already have one ... fire blankets. Simply need to train & utilize them, along with adding to the fire fighting budgets.
  13. If you say so ... 🙄
  14. Or when called out for your falsehood ... ... ever think about a career in politics
  15. Don't know or have a desire to walk down the street naked, though have been out on our almost dead end soi naked, at present house. Also the reason for walls and lack of immediate neighbors, as not a big fan of wearing clothes, nor is the wife. The first house even had 2 outdoor showers, although one I had to not use during school rush hour, as the students on top the buses could actually see over the front wall. Until I raise it from 2 to 3 meters Along with rainy season filling in the trees & brush along the lower side of the wall.
  16. 18+ years ... I think it's working. But I do have to disagree with you, as my philosophy, is, the wife has to keep me happy also, it mutual. The first 3 failed miserably. Nothing worse than not being appreciated ... bye bye bi-atches .... NEXT
  17. Suspect legacy auto / pick up truck makers here in TH, are going to get hit hard 2025 & 2026, as BEV trucks hit the market. Sales declines way beyond a simple downward economy slump. Those looking to replace or buy new will enjoy the savings & performance, of the feature packed BEVs hitting the market soon. Auto shows end of 2024 & early 2025 will give a better picture of their future. If they can keep the price at ฿1M mark or less, then it's going to take a big chunk of their (ICEV) pick up truck market share the next 2 years. That's a huge % of market/profits for the legacy pick up truck makers. Thais love their trucks ... I'm even thinking about one
  18. liking the reference ... Michael Doughs & Stevie 👍
  19. No surprise, and how many politicians become millionaires, if not billionaires. Rules for us, simply don't apply to them. Another way they do it, after in office and catering to who ever needs bailing out, then getting speaking fees after out of office. Clintons & Obamas are a clear example of that. Bail out Wall St, then they pay you to talk ... not a bad gig
  20. Just meat seems to work ...
  21. Geez ... just changing the 'delivery vendor' just jacked up the price of anything. DHL vs Thai Post ... Tax dollars at work. Thankfully don't need them for anything till Oct 2032, for new PP.
  22. Don't know where that tidbit is from, but I disagree. Mine has moved down with adjusted diet, weight loss, the past decade, more so last 5 yrs, and just past year, with major adjustment. Highs of about 145/95 at rest, in the past. Now quite normal at rest 120/80 or lower (both #s) and knocking on 70 yrs old. HR fairly constant 60+/- at rest, over the decades past & now.
  23. Paradise would look something like this .... ... I'm healthy ... dog is healthy ... daughter is healthy ... wife is healthy ... living in custom built house, without immediate neighbors ... have toys to play with ... independent of govt ... house solar ESS topped up ... BEV car topped up ... E-MC topped up ... Ebike topped up ... live a few minutes from the surf ... live a few minutes from the hills ... retired, don't have a schedule, and don't need to be anywhere at anytime OH WAIT ... i'm in paradise already
