  1. My money will always be on Will B Good as the culprit from now on no matter who was being stalked.
  2. I am aware of that Berkshire's timeline. I quoted the first post and the graph started at 2014. That is what I referred to.
  3. Not discrediting Charlie Munger or Warren Buffett, but anyone who entered into an ETF for the S&P in 2014 would have had a similar result, no? Berkshire Do create wealth, but it can be a might sight easier to do so with a serious bankroll. A big bankroll creates its own financial gravity that people tend to flock to.
  4. Sounds like Berkshire and the likes saw you coming from a mile away. Have you ever spotted the sucker in the room?
  5. Hi Sheryl, Would a hospital like Nonthavej Hospital in Nonthaburi be able to conduct the stress test and calcium test? If not, do you have any recommendations, please? What would you estimate the costs of these tests to be?
  6. Were the shots Virorab?
  7. AC joint, rotator cuff injury, median, ulnar and / or radial nerves are all around that part of the body. Have a read on them and see if any of the symptoms match.
  8. Wouldn't it just be easier to create a bank account in a new branch or Bank? Unless your money was illegally gained from Viami Mice.
  9. Agree. And as someone else mentioned, maybe she just wants some company for the occasion. You can just it clear that you are friends only as you would in the west. Just let her down gently. I find Thai woman still do little sweet gestured things when they like a guy. I always find that touching knees with you or upper thighs or lower leg a very sweet gesture that even adult mature Thai women use as a cue to tell you that they like you.
  10. Have you read the terms? But, I'm not going to make a song and dance out of it. I've made people away. That is the extent of my duty of care.
  11. I chose not to use a confused anonymous emoji to attempt to gain some understanding on why you felt the need for your second post. You state that the post is "obviously" about reactions to posts. Yet you went ahead made a redundant post outlining why your post was not even necessary. I vote or an additional emoji. One to deal with irony such as this.
  12. I just read about a few of the VPNs that have been mentioned. People aren't using these VPN for banking, are they? Two of the VPN state that they have the right to collect all data from the browser. That would include passwords. They are free for a reason. If yoy are just streaming, there might no be too much issue. But if you store passwords in your browser, the VPN has access to that too.
  13. I've been a guy who used to wake every last HP out of my bikes. Ducks and the Suzuki twins and aprillias are the few that make a decent note to my ears. But I gave that up because the extra few hp just isnt worth itritating others or myself or the diminishing returns. My current GSX-R track bike has kept its stock can and I can't notice the difference on B grade track days. My exhaust I take growl is a much better sound and massively overpowers the exhaust note. You can't get that intake growl without getting the bike moving swiftly as is is air rammed. You can choose to do what you like. I'm not having a go at individuals. I just gave my opinion on loud exhausts not really being the safety deterent most claim. At least you admit you have termis for the sound and look factor. Neither of which do much for me personally these days. I much prefer super sharp handling and well suspended bikes rather than looks. Enjoy the Duck.
  14. You can buy genuine from a Techspot affiliate. https://www.techspot.com/news/100373-microsoft-office-deal-gets-you-lifetime-license-33.html it is Office 2019 pro and fully legit. As others have mentioned, you have plenty of free options with Google Apps, Microsoft Office online, Open Office and Libre Office. Unless you are using VBA in your word docs or Excel sheets, you won't need Office installed on your computer. If you don't know what VBA is then you definitely don't. But it is Maybe out look desktop version you miss and that is understandable. The licenses you buy on Ebay and the like are corporate license keys. They can have a bit of messing around. You can also run a powershell script to install the license rather than use a phone. But there is always a possibility that they will one day just stop working. Microsoft is continuing to change their Microsoft licensing.
  15. Jury is out on loud pipes but anecdotally I tend to thin that they do zero to the power of bugger all in the scheme of things. What loud pipes do do is alienate all riders in the eyes of many in society. Having ridden bikes and cars on the road since I was able to get a license has demonstrated a few things to me at least. 1. Modern cars' sound deadening and radio on even low volumes defeats all but the most obnoxious of loud pipes. 2. Modern cars' periphery sensors and warning lights on mirrors have been a massive saviour for bike riders in traffic. 3. With loud pipes in traffic, a driver might know a bike is around. Many loud pipes in traffic suddenly make drivers familiar with the irritating noise and the loud pipes lose their alert value. If you don't agree, remember when car alarms first came out. Initially when people heard them, they were alarmed and concerned. But eventually people just learned to ignore car alarms. That is basic psychology. It is the same with load pipes. I personally think that people with loud pipes are the type of people who will happily talk loudly on a phone in a lift or the MRT and have little awareness and respect for others around them. One of the low level stressors in Thailand is noise pollution. Government could do a lot worse than giving a 6 month moratorium on loud bikes and cars. After that if you get caught, you get a fine equal to the replacement cost of a standard muffler. If you show up within 28 days of the fine and have a legit muffler, the fine is cancelled. However, if caught again with a non standard exhaust, the vehicle gets confiscated. Shops selling loud pipes have a month to stop selling their illegal exhausts. Same should be for red and blue lights flashing lights.
  16. The CB500x had been neglected for a while.. it wasn't revving as freely. It was bogging badly at wide open throttle under 4k. Air filter and plugs were recent.. I checked that nothing has made a home in the intake. So a bit of injector cleaner at double prescribed volume and bounced between 7000 to redline for 100km or so got her running sweet again. I even got a front end lift in first without a bounce up on a backroad! These engines really do need to be run above 6k regularly.
  17. Just wondering out loud. The note on Add Files area states " Max total size: 1.43 GB" I'm wondering if there is a a variable for totalax size and individual upload max size. Could it be that 1429 individual 1mb files could be loaded before the 1.430gb max size of combined files is breached?
  18. I remember once a guy on a scooter had his girl on the back and tried to split between two taxis as three lanes merged into two. I say tried, but he actually made it. Trouble was that his girls knees must have been hanging out just a bit further than the scooters handlebars. He knees hit the sides of both taxis and tumbled off the back onto the busy road. I'd braked early thinking the bike wouldn't make it so I didn't clean her up. But the rider's brake light didn't come on well after the incident. When the pillion was finally on her feet, she went ballistic at him for 30 seconds with kicks and elbows. Then she just got back on the bike and away they went.
  19. Slightly over 1mb has just failed. It was a simple jpg. Under a mb still loading. Used the attach method and drag method.
  20. Was reading today that the mono rail lines are at about 11-13 baht per passenger break even costs. Why are the other lines so much more expensive to run? Let's do some back of an envelope math: According to Wiki here a Thai news article put 2019 Purple Line figures at 70,000 people per day. Now, the Purple line has only got busier - much busier since 2019. Cheaper fare will increase that number, too. 14 baht was the previous cost for a single station trip. But let's stay at 70,000 rides. Let's assume 18 baht per passenger and we have 70,000 * 18 = 1,260,000 per day which is very close to the total figure of revenue per day for red and purple lines combined. 1,260,000/16 hours per day mean = 78,750. Even if there was a 50% jump in patronage due to the 20 baht price, you are still short. (8,700,000 baht / 16 hours of usage per day)/2 lines = 271,875 baht per hour per line. with revenue at 271,875 / 18 baht = 15,104 passengers and hour. To get a break even according to the report with 2019's patronage you are looking at 271,875/(70,000/16) = 62.15 baht average trip cost break even. At 105,000 pax per day you are looking at 41.43 baht average per passenger. Get more of the old red buses off the roads helps with pollution and better welfare for all citizens. Invest in less higher spec buses and get more people onto the mass transit systems. More capital expenditure for more rolling stock and meet in the middle at capped 30 baht. Let the MRT run with 16% margins and cap it. Win win. I would like to understand the total gate numbers and the timing of them as well as total runs per day in each direction of each line.
  21. Just did a quick test and it looks like there is a 1MB / 1024KB limit currently on uploads. It will be one of many things that admin will need to slowly work through. Nice work on the new forum software. Even though things are still a bit sluggish at the moment, the GUI itself seems much more responsive. And was after you came back on line from the update about a week ago, too. Thanks to everyone behind the scenes who no doubt have been putting in some serious time to get things relocated. My login was still current when I came to the site today! Kudos.
  22. Just saw this. Glad you are on the mend. Did you choose to get a plate in your collarbone or are you going to just let nature take its course? If you are having trouble sleeping with the cracked ribs, sleeping in an armchair might bring s bit more relief. All the best with the recovery and mopping up the aftermath of the person that hit you.
  23. I have a 3m x 2m rug that I would like to have cleaned. Is there a service in Nonthaburi or north side BKK that cleans rugs and picks up from a condo?
  24. New front hoop and HH scintered pads installed on the V Strom. Also, gave the brakes and ABS system a good bleed.
  25. Yes, a set up on a true horizontal plane and a skim is nothing for a well kitted engineering shop. I'd guess 1k wouldn't be far off the mark.
