That's not correct. The person transfers their google number to your google account. You don't need a mobile number for that. I did it last year. My sister transferred her google number to me. I got a notification from google and that was all that was required. The two stipulations are that each person can only have one google number and the person transferring the number can't apply for a new number for 90 days.

you can't set up google voice in Thailand but you can have someone transfer you a google voice number, if you can find someone in the US willing to do that.

I read that Skype will extend the service for people who have money in it but I don't know how long that will be for. I believe Microsoft Teams is more for organizations than individuals. And the organization has to have a callling plan. But I've never used it myself so I'm not sure of the details.

So what's the best alternative to Skype for making toll-fee calls to the U.S.? Any suggestions?

Bill Burr rips apart Elon Musk ("that laminated face c**t"). Is this the start of the resistance?

It gets glowing reviews. I think I'll try this next time I'm in Pattaya

Especially since Opey only 1000 baht a night on Agoda. So that's actually not a discount at all.

Read the views for Nova Park on Google Maps. Very entertaining for the reader, not so much for the people who stayed there!

Checked it out, only available rooms currently are 1440 baht. Jomtien must be rocking at this time of year.

Sorry, I many any idea about how much per month?

Thanks, Thanks for the useful reply.

They have monthly rates?

How's the noise level? How's the nojse level?

I have a friend coming, plans to stay a month or more, and would like to do it in a decent residence hotel rather than an AirBnB. I scanned Everything Pattya but the places I found there were mostly in the cheap category -- maybe not good in terms of safety and convenience? In any case, I was wondering if anyone might have a recommendation for a monthly hotel in a reasonable location with a budget in the 15000 to 25000 range? Or just someplace that they have had a good experience with.

There's also a voice over that some may find annoying. I learned to like it though. And Vince Vaughn isn't my favorite but he captured this character well. He's annoying but he's supposed to be.

Is anyone going to take one for the team and tackle The Brutalist to see if its worth watching?

I'm watching Bad Monkey, which is about a suspended/ex-detective in the Florida Keys who is trying to get his old job back by investigating a wife for the possible murder of her husband for the insurance money. Based on a novel by Carl Hiassen, it's got a little bit of everything: romance, murder, family troubles, and some great locations (and a beautiful Mexican actress). Oh, and also a bad monkey. I like it anyway. Starring Vince Vaughn.

Has anybody tried using authenticator apps for avoiding the need for SMS codes?

Reddit has a crowd sourced list of 2FA codes that work with Google Voice

Joe has completely lost the plot. He's entered Rush Limbaugh territory on his way to Alex Jones. His show is one conspiracy rant after another. The other day he was ranting about fluoride. "It's a MF neurotoxin!". Joe's a prime example of how a little knowledge can be a dangerous thing.

Immigration guidelines, not laws

The fee was charged in January and it's 200 baht

And who's in a better position to do it than the owner of Starlink.

Well, there was a new charge of 100 baht right after I updated the passbook. I don't know what else it could have been for. And it's the first time I've experienced it too but before there were always update machines with the ATMS. Not anymore.

Hey, Musk kept telling us that all voting should be done in person and by hand. You think maybe he knew something?
