Smoke signal: Suvarnabhumi sparks smoking rooms outrage
KhunLA replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
I peeked in one of those smoking rooms once out of curiosity. Ventilated is a stretch, if it was. Making a bad day at Chiang Mai looking like a breath of fresh air. Literally a fog in there I couldn't stomach someone coming out of that room after a cig or 2, and getting stuck sitting next to their smelly selves on a plane for a few hours, or even a 1 hour hop in country. Would be like staying in a smoker's hotel room, or a car owned by a smoker, even when nobody smoking in it. They really don't know how bad they stink up the place. Nothing is more of a turn off, than when out on the prowl, and a cutie in the bar,, club or a park lights up. -
Best Place to Buy a Used MB in Pattaya Area
KhunLA replied to Thailaw's topic in Motorcycles in Thailand
How many did you contact ? Just peeked and changed my marketplace location to Patts (20 kms) and more than a few to choose from. Since for your daughter, have you considered electric, no maintenance worries. Also can buy new, as Deco make has a few models, with 1000w motors, LFP battery, starting price ฿28,640 - ฿30,640 https://decogreenenergy.com/index.php/th/ Would definitely be my choice. Take a peek outside the box, may surprise you. -
Thank you President Trump & Elon Musk. Without having the 'books' opened up, and once again, 'free speech' allowed, the masses would still be in 'Ignorant Bliss', though surely half are still in denial, and don't believe any of it. I'm only surprised about some of the info coming out. Directly subsidizing news venues, and have to admit, didn't see that one coming ... Certain explains the BS and the intense investigative journalism during the biden years ... ... "what kind of ice cream is that ? "

People do have choices ... and your choice is ? We chose BEVs and most electrons from solar, unless O&A and overnighting somewhere. Which case, most energy from natural gas in TH. Not perfect, but a work in progress, away from using more polluting materials. Not that the planet needs saving. Just my hard earned money saved. OK, that's a stretch, as nothing hard about that. Choices ... ... give away to conglomerates ... spend on yourself

Solar panels fail after 3 years!
KhunLA replied to BritManToo's topic in Alternative/Renewable Energy Forum
That's not going to help their sales -
Obviously it's location dependent, from reading other threads. I only need yellow book Ior Cert. of Residence, if not having), and my Passport to get ID, along with address changes to it. I got mine at 60+ yrs old, so would expect same paperwork to renew. Why not just pop into local office and ask ? Would have been answered by now, especially since 'location dependent'. Really can't answer what your amphur office might require.

FB Marketplace should have some with low prices. Probably by my first source for MB shopping -

Note to self ... stay clear of BlueTech if future plans for more solar THANKS -
Anywhere in TH would work for me, if single, and or looking for a relationship. Avoiding smog is a priority for myself, so it would be probably be Chumphon or lower. Happy where we are, North of Chumphon, but South of Hua Hin, and close enough to Bangkok, to visit daughter. Only real considerations are, if you're a fan of P4P, then that limits your choices, on a convenience level. Or if having a lot of western food options is a priority, especially if you don't cook at home. You want metro, urban or rural living, no prob. You want hills or surf, no prob. TH has it all. Didn't you leave already ???

With our purifiers on, we keep the PM2.5 <5 most of the time. Sometimes need the ACs to assist with that, sometimes not. Only have 2 Xiaomi purifiers, and they handle 105m² with no problem. House is fairly new build and pretty airtight. Have a PM2.5 stand alone meter, and fairly accurate. The air purifiers will auto cycle up & down at times, when happy with PM2.5.

Trump 2.0 -- Exponentially more damaging than Trump 1.0
KhunLA replied to Jingthing's topic in Political Soapbox

Since most (ethanol, hydrogen, propane, LPG, and methano) have been around for decades, and not progressed much, except for hydrogen, and that is just a Toyota distraction tactic, as impractical for personal vehicles. Been pushed for a bout 20+ yrs and gotten nowhere. Where as BEV are being mass produced and taking over the market, with improvements every year.

Smoke signal: Suvarnabhumi sparks smoking rooms outrage
KhunLA replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
I prefer my tax dollars / baht, not to be used to support unhealthy activity, that may eventually lead to health problems, which again, will cost tax money to treat. I know making people sick and the making profit treating them is big business, but prefer my dollars / baht is spent doing both. You want to kill yourself, do it away from me, and on you one dime, sip baht. -
Sunlight will affect the color, dulling, bleaching as it does to most plastics. Where we live, it hits 40C and up often, so prefer aluminum, and not a cheap build or installation. Like things to work hassle free.

Here's a link / site that may help you find out how healthy or not, your diet is. You can track all your intake, or like me, just input some foods now and then, to see how healthy, or if fitting in or reaching my desired intake, more proportional, of fats / protein / carbs, which I prefer to be F-75 / P-20 / C-5 % of my diet. More features to the site, than my occasional inputs: https://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=m Which I kind of fail at, as seems always a bit more carbs than I want. Here's a sample, as I put in today's food. My usual coffee @ 0600, first meal around 1200 noon, had a burger around 1530, then dinner at 1700. If I eat anything else before 2000 hrs, probably be blueberries w/whip cream. The fat from the heavy cream should offset the sugar in the blueberries a bit, slowing digestion. Then next meal won't be till about 12 noon tomorrow. Out the door now, for my evening walk with the dog. Didn't really weigh anything, but this should be ball park enough. Wish everyday was this good:

As long as not exposed to the sun, this is the tropic, and why I don't use UPVC. And 'cheap' anything, will eventually need to be replaced.

If you can't make the financials for an 0 non immigrant visa, then one should think hard, if it's a good decision to live overseas without the safety nets of home country. 400k & 800k is the minimum for a reason, so 'you' have enough to live on, even in case of an oops. When a single person can live on 20k a month, or 40k comfortably, that leaves quite a bit every year to save for an oops, if not having an oops fund already, or health insurance. Married person has the advantage of universal healthcare for the wife & kids, so again 40k should be enough.

RFK Jr.’s Confirmation Hearings Prove He’s Unfit to Lead HHS
KhunLA replied to Social Media's topic in World News
yea ... sometimes they work, sometimes not. Haven't figure out how to tell the difference. Sometimes, after you enter the link, and hit enter/return, then it sets as a clickable link. Happens a lot with YT or FB shorts, sometimes opens, or not. -
