I'm on this page "Alcoholics with co-exisiting sex addiction" Didn't know or care it's a sub forum of "I drink too much" as don't read the fine print up top of the page when replying to threads of.

We used these, ratings of 37 & 38 from HomePro and can also find online. Rolled out on top of ceiling. Make sure it has the higher rating, as a few different ones available.

I didn't get pass ep1, almost did, but looks to be a teen soap opera. Think it was 5.6 on IMDB, and that's being kind.

@Nip do you not think you or your kids are contributing to the problem, by paying. If all avoided such vendors, and refused to pay, they might stop the practice. I refuse to step foot in anyplace that does dual pricing. As much for the policy, and also most aren't worth the Thai price. Since the tourist are so ignorant, I doubt if the practice will ever end. Never ending supply of suckers.

Are you sure you, and the shrinks, aren't confusing the 'feeling of failure' to have sex, or anything you desire or want to do, contributing to all those silly symptoms of unstable mental health, rather than the act of sex itself. Feeling and realizing you are a failing in the social sexual scene, added to an unstable person already, could be problem, but has nothing to do with SA. I want, I need (for whatever reason), I have ... isn't harmful to anyone, especially if it's sex. I want, I think I need, but I'm a failure, and can't seem to succeed at it ... yea, that problem is with the person, not what they think they need. AA ... if your body drinks a liter of whiskey ever day, when it wakes up, it needs to start on that bottle of whiskey as soon as possible ... that's addiction, that's harmful. Physically, and probably socially. You have sex everyday, maybe a few times a day for a month ... wake up and don't have for a week, that's not harmful to you body, or probably socially. It hurts nobody.

'freight' train derailment ... ???? Report 7 carriages at Bang Saphan, Prachuap Khiri Khan province, apparently today. Funny looking freighter ... wouldn't want to scare any tourist away from SRT.

I think the take away from this thread will be, IF having low usage for PEA or MEA, don't be surprised if you get visit to ask IF you have solar, along with a new digital meter. When they gave us our new meter, for new house build, they asked, 'do you have solar' and you can not see the panels from the soi or anywhere approaching the house, as roof has very little pitch to it. Whether that's the new standard question to ask with new meter install, or they guessed, or simply knew from the neighborhood chit chat, unknown. 300-400-500kWh bills dropping to <100kWh bills, doesn't take rocket scientist to figure out what's going on. Wife asked about TOU meter and was told also at that time, all new meters would be digital. 11 new constructions in last 6 months, in the neighborhood, an they all have digital meters. Anyone thinking about solar, whether having old spin back meter or not, should expect a new digital in the future. Hopefully later than sooner, but spring for the bit of extra money, and get a hybrid inverter. May want for future upgrade.

Really does depend on need & usage. If not home during the day, and want to be 'off' grid at night, then that's going to require ESSs, at about 100k for 10kWh and more than enough. Although, that's on top of the cost of inverter & panels for on grid/tie in system. That's where is starts getting expensive. But if home during the day and running ACs a lot, than that usage, no ESSs for night, the system would be inexpensive, using grid overnight. Maybe 15kWh during day, 5 or 6 overnight, which is about our usage now, without the EV. That's abusing the AC. You don't seem to use much electric, relative to us, with your low bills. If mostly daytime, then your ROI would be quick, and 5kWh system aren't expensive. If both out during the day, and most of your usage is a night, then that raises the cost of the system, and length of time for ROI.

Depends on the system. Ours cost 445k installed, and if DIY, could knock 50 or 75k off, maybe. Our PEA bills were 3-3500k a month, for 600-700kWh, at our rental, and petrol about 3k a month, so if they were to hold steady, about 6 yr ROI Due to new house build, having a hard time using 450-500kWh a month now. Today is a buffer day, as O&A yesterday, so car is still charging. A wee bit yesterday just before sunset, took ESSs down to 60% overnight, and charging EV since 0630, still got couple hours, and should be done. Just the ESSs & EV will be 40kWh, if car finishes today. If that was daily use, ROI would be real quick. At present, since midnight; produced 35kWh consumed 30kWh Doubt if EV will finish, or shall I say, I'll allow it to finish, as cloudy westward, and was even a chance of rain today. So think production will drop now. We'll need 6kWh for overnight, which actually starts soon if cloudy enough, production vs consumption goes in the negative.

If you say, think so. I'm of a different opinion. Just have to agree to disagree. I easily enjoy both, with no issues: 1 moderately 1 as much I wish Others who have no will power, need to concentrate on themselves. Let the rest of us enjoy what we enjoy.

Unlike alcoholism (damage to your body), SA, if there is such a thing, isn't a problem, unless it becomes a problem. Don't think too much sex, if a thing, has ever harmed anyone, as long as consenting adults. For me, on the alcoholism issue, I think I've had about 3 beers (490ml) since mid Oct. 5 at the most, if there was 2 in the frig before I bought the last slab, as there's only 3 missing from it. And I never keep more than 2 in the frig at any time. Why I only buy a slab (12 cans) when they are fresh, as may take me 6 months to finish. Seems I sip less in the new house. Was good for about 2 beers a month prior. Going out on a limb here, and thinking 3 or 5 beers in that many months, isn't a problem.

25+ visits to, and never asked for either. Should always have both with you, DL at least. Can't really remember ever being asked for PP in TH.

So much for separation of sports & politics. They have become a bit of a joke anyway, with the doping, the pros competing against amateurs, it's all meaningless. Tourist attraction for the country held at and advertising revenue, that's about it, nothing but a business.

Rent or buy a condo I've never understood why anyone would do the leasehold thing. As long as you don't expect any return on a leasehold ... UP2U 6 houses later and a few rentals and I really never lived anywheres for more than a few years. So a 30-year anything, that's way too long, and unpredictable for me.

If they don't want them to ever get out, and there's no mandatory long sentence, then they do the consecutive thingy. Try to tack on as many years as possible. Depends how many of those firearms were illegal, and legality of probable cause to search. Worse case scenario would be just the 2 semi autos & mags were illegal, with iffy search. Then prosecution might take the easy win, and drop it to a misdemeanor, and he'd get 1 yr ... ???? That would suck: "Some individuals who illegally possess a firearm in California may be subject to misdemeanor charges. These charges can include up to $1,000 in fines and no more than a year spent in county jail." https://www.simmrinlawgroup.com/faqs/how-much-jail-time-do-you-get-for-possession-of-a-gun-in-california/#:~:text=Some individuals who illegally possess,year spent in county jail. We'll never know, as never follow up news-blips, especially if gets a lite sentence.

Because he made threats to staff, per news-blip, and that's enough for probable cause, especially if he said he'd shoot someone. Problem is, when they sentence people, it's usually concurrent. Best one could hope for, is he also gets a federal charge, since carries higher penalty. But California likes being anti-Fed. You know, that sanctuary city / state BS. Anything less than a minimum 10 yr stretch is a joke. Be nice if they gave him 3 yrs for each firearm, and not concurrent sentence. If all were illegal firearms, that would be 21 yrs (7 firearms).

How soon before he's out of jail ? Possession of illegal firearm should be life in jail, no parole. When the time fits the crime (potential to kill) ... maybe they'll think before violating the law. Possession of illegal firearm ... doubt he'll do much more than 1-3 yrs ... IF that. Googling ... and yea, California's revolving door prison system. What a joke: "Unlawful firearm possession can result in up to $10,000 in fines and up to 3 years in jail " https://www.tarmanlaw.com/criminal-defense/gun-possession/#:~:text=Unlawful firearm possession can result,you need a good defense.

If concerned, just wear a N95/99 mask, and one with a vent, for a bit more comfort. Holiday in the south, or get some indoor hobbies with some air purifier use. Works for me, but our AQI is usually around 75+/- ... when higher, I stay indoors and keep myself occupied.

Pretty obvious, if you DO NOT live here, opening a bank account would imply, you're doing something illegal. Who flies to another country they don't live in, to open bank accounts ... criminals hiding money. Amazing that people that follow the rules & requirements have no problems. Join the rest of us, and get a proper visa, out of country, put some roots down, simply a lease, in country, then extend in country. Doesn't get any easier.

It's only more complicated for the OP ... since not meeting the requirements.

Along with the rest of SEA, India, China ... 1 giant inversion. You can't really imply, it's the cooler air keeping the smoke from burning season closer to ground level vs the burning season itself. Burning season is the problem, not the cooler air. There's cooler air all across USA & EU, and they don't have our krappy AQI #s.

Apparently there's an all inclusive weather / AQI station just up the road from me. Does agree with my AQI meter more than IQair, which is usually higher than my meter. Still 'poor', but better than IQair readings, which I think come from Hua Hin, as doesn't state location of meter, but would make sense. I like that right after the poor AQI report, there's and advert to "Retied in TH" ????
