  1. I have a life and am good at minding my own business, curtain twitcher.
  2. How do you meet them? I don’t meet anyone ☺️ In fact if anyone asks to sit with me, I just say no.
  3. So just an opinion without any basis in fact. Got it.
  4. One word… fraud. Just reads, doesn’t fully understand, but expounds theories as if he does. Then will try to bluff his way through it. Unfortunately for him, someone called his bluff. Humility is a thing. He should try it.
  5. It’s not what you do, but the way that you do it…
  6. Sounds like one ‘loser’ in a bar talking to another. How would any onlookers tell the difference? You seem to have quite a few issues of your own. I avoid any places where I might meet the likes of you.
  7. How would you know? Do you diagnose each person?
  8. A ripoff then. 80 baht for a not particularly large chicken leg(drumstick + thigh). That’s at least double the price of my local. Are they frying in olive oil? My local place: So those four pieces together with the sticky rice would be a maximum of 90 baht.
  9. Sorry, but I’m not going to bother to read your GARBAGE ???? Your posts from the very beginning have been utter nonsense. You have no evidence of ‘thrashing’ of your SSD. It’s quite possible that you don’t even have an SSD fitted at all ☺️ You’ve also made pronouncements of Browsers crashing because of inadequate memory, but have gone strangely quiet about that, whilst banging on about the usage of the term thrashing, without any evidence that thrashing is taking place at all. Then have the gall to make condescending posts about what it takes to be a scientist. If honestly, you’ve just come off looking a total fraud and that’s putting it mildly. So please don’t try to insult me with your pretending that you know anything at all. You have deflected and/of ignored every single question of SUBSTANCE whilst devoting each and every reply to arguing about whether computer scientists have adopted the term ‘thrashing’ for other devices other than HDD. That was your TRIVIAL PURSUIT. How about we discuss the ACTUAL TECHNICAL ISSUES , rather than nonsensical semantics? You don’t because you cannot.
  10. Okay… let’s take what was written step by step. Mozilla turning into Firefox. WRONG. Firefox becoming Garbage. Most disagree. Your theory that Browser crashes are usually down to low memory. WRONG. So let’s not deflect with an obsession over literal term usage. There is no need for ‘SSD thrashing’ on a 16 GB RAM system utilising a Browser and some Google utilities. Then to the 16GB RAM PC… You will note that thrashing occurs in reference to devices with a relatively small amount of RAM. Your device has 16GB of RAM. There would not be excessive swaps when simply utilising a Browser, hence no ‘thrashing’ on the SSD. Do you even have an SSD fitted? Which model? Does it have DRAM? Try reducing the size of Virtual Memory. Clean your cache, reduce size of Virtual Memory, reboot and see if your 100 Tabs reload. I had few issues utilising 100 Tabs in Opera on a laptop with 4GB… so I’m going with PEBCAK on this one.
  11. I see that you are still somewhat obsessing about the term usage. As I’ve written a few times already, we understand the use of the term thrashing is related to virtual memory on a spinning disk drive and if you would like to utilise the term for SSD we can continue the discussion. You are suggesting that the SSD is the bottleneck in your system. Do you have any evidence of SSD ‘thrashing’ on your PC, subsequently slowing it down? What steps have you taken to mitigate the issue? The trouble here is that you read a lot but only have a superficial understanding of what you are reading. Because next, I’d like to discuss your understanding of creation of a RAMdisk to 64GB of RAM ???? and the benefits you imagine thereof.
  12. One IT guy ???? Dear GG Once again, here, you referred to HDD and SSD and that the problem with your system when running a Browser was the disk thrashing. I replied incredulous that someone was having such a problem running a Browser with 16 GB of RAM. There is no way that you can view 100 Tabs at the same time. Anyone can deliberately overload a system. Again the thrashing likely isn’t because of the “lousy system” or a slow SSD…but possibly from too many processes running at the same time. Which might have little to do with the SSD at all. Not unlike your assumption that Browsers crash only because of low memory. It’s a bit more complicated than your simplistic suggestions. You are getting sidetracked by the very thing of which you accused me. You have become obsessed with the usage of a term instead of the ACTION. I am not bothered if you utilise the term, but the term derived from ‘disk thrashing’. We understand where it came from and why we use it. But back to the point. What evidence do you have of it being SSD ‘thrashing’ and what steps, if any, have you taken to mitigate the issue?
  13. There is no misunderstanding and I don’t need to run around cutting and pasting in the hope that I will change my mind. Thrashing referred to the action of the HDD; thrashing about wildly. But let’s leave that for a moment, ironically because you accused me of being too literal ???? Because firstly, for ‘thrashing’ to occur when utilising an SSD, especially when mainly just running a Browser indicates to me that there is a bigger problem. Which is what I meant in the first place and have referred to throughout. Talk about taking things too literally… The bigger problem is you. Which is why I also mentioned you cleaning up at least once in a while. A bad workman always blames his tools… I am correct when I state the term came from the action of a spinning hard disk. You are using it in an arcane manner. There is no ‘thrashing’ with an SSD. ‘Thrashing’ is short for ‘Disk Thrashing’. With an SSD, you might get away with calling it ‘Virtual Memory Thrashing’ if you like. But again, the problem is you, thrashing the system, alongside poor maintenance. Literal or not, I was alluding to the problem being you somewhere along the line.
  14. I could see that it wasn’t plain rice, but how much is the rice? I estimated 40 baht. How much do you think it should be? Up here I’ll get chicken with ‘yellow rice’ for 50 baht. But it’s just the rice on this occasion. So how much? 50 baht? I’m just trying to make sense of the pricing. My estimate seems a likely breakdown of the prices. There are also queues at my local. It’s very popular and also good value.
  15. Even the ‘corrected’ price of 380 seems a bit much. My local chicken shop( ไก่ทอดแหลก ) your charges around 30 baht for a chicken leg(drumstick + thigh). 15 to 20 baht for individual drumsticks/thighs/wings etc I don’t know how much a ‘box of rice’ costs, but let’s say 40 baht. That leaves six pieces of chicken at 50 baht apiece.
  16. Does your ‘cell phone’ have a Browser? Have you tried that?
  17. This is how it is done: https://www.ais.th/en/consumers/package/exclusive-plan/youtube-premium There is no mobile banking involved ????????‍♂️ Payment is added to your bill if Postpaid or from your credit if Prepaid. First month is free if you have a Gmail account that hasn’t claimed a free month of YouTube Premium before. So open a new Gmail account if you have.
  18. Nothing you write makes any sense. You claim to have signed up for a month. But now the month is over, you still expect to have a working subscription. You ‘went’ to your mobile banking. Does that mean that you actually paid? But you see that you haven’t paid. So you haven’t paid for anything. You then write that you cannot get YouTube on your Cell phone ????????‍♂️ No mention of signing into a YouTube Premium account, but that you cannot get YouTube…
  19. Are you still feeding it?
  20. Perhaps a week ago, a Thai family insisted that I go in front of them because I had a few things in my hands. I declined, thanking them anyway. Also a friendly wave when they left. When riding my bike, locals and I are often acknowledging each other for little passes etc. Of course niceness is an act; practice makes perfect.
  21. It wasn’t a theory; it was a Troll…
  22. Why don’t you offer details of your place before you have the gall to attempt to denigrate others.
  23. What a silly question. I make it my concern. Just like replying to a post. I have the choice to ignore it or reply. If I see someone fall down, I have the choice to help them or walk away. How is their falling down my concern? Humanity. … plus it’s stinky and pointless.
  24. Like yourself? None of the places in which you have stayed have even approached that size. Strange that you would interject, knowing that you fit into the same category.
  25. I don’t do selfies nor social media. Though my mum likes to know what I’m eating ????
