  1. That's about it. Really low range spec, if taking it down to 20% / 80% usable, that 240 kms is now 192 kms, and surely tested on a flat road, perfect condition, with no load ... 😲 Now load that baby up, with a few adults ( "240-kilometre range and 1000kg payload" ), and by the time you get off road, and set up, what ever, maybe camping, you need a charging station. No prob:
  2. No mention of heart attack in news-blip ... ... but I'm confuses, was he wading or swimming. So did the ganga cause the coma, or simple exposure to the seawater at Patt's beach ...
  3. From link ... "Cheap and simple" New definition of cheap/affordable, low spec'd EV (range 240 kms) ... ... and only ... X2 if every imported to TH from 2 yr old news-blip:
  4. The BS was plucked from a Thai FB page ... nuff said
  5. Y'all grammar PoPo b up in that sh!t. Ain't no ting, if b understood, b nuff. Chill dog ... word ... peace out
  6. Fake news ... as when has a Thai doc, ever tested for any suspected infection ... ... here's your script for antibodies, if not cleared up in 2 weeks, come back.
  7. Whoa ... I guess more that a few Thais realize ... "you get what you pay for" Less than 400k and that's all they can sell
  8. Over 3 yrs of inflation, and prices might by higher ... ... who would have thought ... especially with the price of jet fuel compared to early 2020 ...
  9. Not until I arrive ...
  10. As are a bunch of other symptoms. Along with, a discharge could also be caused by many things.
  11. Have you considered an 11 yr old boy, on FB, stating he has an 18 yr old girl friend, might be a slight embellishment, if it happened at all, which I highly doubt. I await the next news-blip about the foreigner that has had enough of TH, and left, only to return, since his GF begged & cried so much, that the right thing to do was come back ...
  12. On what planet does anyone have the right to force a test or treatment on anyone. He refused a test, so what. You can't treat what hasn't been diagnosed. And no mention of parents or guardian, as how is an 11 yr old admitted to hospital or seen be a doc. FB pages are now the source of news-blips ... "As the Facebook page continues to share such narratives"
  13. Definitely agree with first part, as I'd only get my protein from eggs & seafood, if had to kill it myself. I've butchered deer, but my brother killed it, as no way could I do it. Although, if having a proper rifle, I think I'd get over killing a steer or a pig. As long as I didn't name it Chickens are too much hassle to pluck. Killed a goose, and gave up, someone else had to finish it. Ain't worth the hassle to me. Raising, organically, old style doesn't take much resources at all. But mass producing is a whole another industrial complex, for better profit margin. Hence the amount of resources needed. Home on the farm, they graze, they grow, but not to today's market standard. Fruits & veggies can be quite the trial & error to master. We get a few things right at the house, but other fail miserably. Definitely need a greenhouse, or chemicals, which we won't use, hence the greenhouse, and a large one at that.
  14. Longer ones, like today, (>50kms but <120kms) I figured we did 32 in 1 year, so about 1 every 10 days, as 33 days were away from the house/overnight somewhere. Most, instead of a barstool, is just sitting/strolling at the park or surfside, or short trip to a lake or through the hills. Coffee shops instead of bars. When I did sip a few out of the house, pretty much the same, unless having a veranda w/view, can't see sitting at a bar, in a bar. Actually the veranda at home is one of the best spots, aside from surfside. Besides, after the coffee shop, got to burn of 1 or 2 calories, and grab a little Vit D while the dog gets a few new sniffs and marks some turf
  15. Aside from from this (quote above for more boring reading), the first year having EV, short summary, 20k kms, almost half of those, away from the home, overnight, 33 nights, and 8 separate O&A (out & abouts), i think. Bored and play with numbers, knowing how little we drive locally, knocking around town, thought I peek and see how many of those 10k local kms, weren't exactly knocking around town. So over to Gmap Timeline, and yea, everyday for that year, and noted the days with short trips O&A (>50 but <125 kms, no overnight or CS (charging station) used) Kind of surprising, and more than half of, EV (car), and 5061 kms / 32 days, shy of 1 every 10 days for the first year owning our EV, were away from house, not simply knocking around town. Today, my short unnecessary daily park run with the dog was all of 8.8 kms. Double that almost, when we add cruising by the surf. Along that route, is Makro, our only mandatory use of car. So reality, could hit the park, on our shopping days, once or twice a week. As I can simply walk the dog in the neighborhood, as I do at sunset. Boring, twice in same day. So our actually local driving, without playing tourist, is only about 5000 kms with the car, and I think, 2500 on the scooter, and average of 20 kms a day for the year, most, unnecessary. Advantage of all that, especially playing local tourist, it doesn't cost anything, and gets us 'the hell out of the house'. As I state many times, one of best things about the EV & solar, getting O&A locally, where we probably wouldn't do it in an ICEV, or at least not a special trip like today. We'd probably just wait until we were in the neighborhood, coming back from a real O&A, and pop in. 101 kms, today, if using petrol, would have cost ฿274, almost the same as the coffee & sweets for 2, at ฿300. Kind of silly when transport cost the same as a sweet tooth fix. Of course, we could of had similar, (not really) riding the pedal bikes to 7-11, for <฿120, two ฿20 coffees & two ฿39 cheesecakes. Along with being healthier, but just not interesting, and still 'at the house' Food for thought, when thinking about your next vehicle, if any of it rings a bell. HAPPY MOTORING
  16. Leaving the barstool, or the hood, doesn't require an overnight or very long drive. Just something different. Sample of one of ours, usually to a coffee shop and or restaurant, sometimes with a view, though not today. Nice setting though, even though next to the road, with plenty foliage, to block view of roadway. Total was 101 kms roundtrip, to check off another, almost local coffee shop w/pretty pictures of sweets. Then while in the neighborhood, cruise by town & then the surf, see if new is interesting. Hit the fresh market for some very nice mangos. Had a nice coffee & cake, as they no longer do food.
  17. Is there a link for this news-blip, or simply a AN created one ?

  19. Her local friends live on RTAF Wing 5, and always a good day out. Why we get waved through, instead of playing tourist sign in. A little bit familiar with the guards. Or it's a somtam party on our veranda. Her family isn't an issue (vs 1st Thai wife's a-holes). She has eight siblings, (1 in USA), scattered all over TH, along with a few cousins, that we pop in and visit sometimes while O&A. Latest down at Hat Yai, and cousin met his wife at Uni and ended up there, though born in Nong Bua LamPhu. Even got one aunt & cousin, living on Ko Phangan, too logistical to visit.
  20. Cooking for 3 of us, wife, dog & myself, got to make sure there's enough. Think we only had leftovers, since only had 4 tortillas, and a big serving of tater tots as a side dish. Even had leftover ribs (6 bones), and thinking, sandwich after pulled off the bone & nuked with remaining drippings we saved. If I had some ham & cheese, would make a nice Cuban ... Haven't made one of then in a while.
  21. With the higher temps, better AQI & PM2.5 numbers this past couple weeks, since the pollution can dissipate to higher altitudes, I guess it's a safer time to finally burn our trash. Just waiting for a non windy day, so not to disturb any distant neighbors, closest being 140m away This represents about 5 months of trash for us, November to March, inclusive. As I stated, we don't generate much that isn't recycled or put in the compost piles. Mostly plastic bags or non all paper containers/packaging. That egg carton will probably get put in the compost pile. That use to be a weeks worth of trash, when we were renting in suburbia Udon Thani.
  22. Too funny ... I was thinking the vendor didn't want customer parking blocked, but he wasn't open for business. Think something a little deeper going on between the 2. Agree with the above, lack of respect for an official, unless of course, the official (PoPo) instigated the confrontation. This part isn't making any sense ... "discovered a pickup truck with flat tyres from gunfire", assuming that was the vehicle in question, asked to be moved.
  23. Don't buy much in the ฿1000 range, so have to go with hotels. Just came back from an 11 day O&A, and most expensive room was ฿1000, the rest were ฿5-700, as stay rural, or just outside of main part of any town. Aside from that, only food item, would be frozen ocean salmon, from Makro, now about ฿800 for 900gr or less, as package weight is ever shrinking as price goes steadily up.
  24. As is most food consumption, veggies, fruits, grains. We kill, or abort to survive. Try surviving without killing or aborting something. Had ribs yesterday ... damn tasty ... with a side salad that someone killed the ingredients for me to have ... Have blueberries in my cereal or yogurt daily. Aborted fruit that will never grow and live a full life. Going to have aborted (murdered) chickens for brekkie, and possibly dinner. Kill, pay someone to kill .... or die ... UP2U
  25. Does the left hand not know what the right hand is posting:
