  1. By searching that name I stumbled on this https://www.wired.com/story/alphabay-desnake-dark-web-interview/
  2. Doesn't this do the same? https://apps.apple.com/ky/app/1-1-1-1-faster-internet/id1423538627
  3. I'll check them out, There are many urbans in Pattaya, is the one in soi 15 called just Urban? For now my preference goes to LK Legend because it is on a big plot, has ample covered parking, and is about 30.000m² cheaper than Centara Residence. Don't know how the prices are for the others you mention
  4. Another update; Applied for new passport on 25 January, today got email that the passport is ready. That is exactly 2 weeks, so I regret that due to the scaremongering by agents on this forum, i didn't wait another 2 weeks to apply.
  5. The 10K wallet will never materialize. The PM is just waiting for others to advise against it to pull the plug and claim it's beyond his control.
  6. I didn't say I knew everything, but did I ask in my OP for advice on what I should do with my money? Did I ask if I should rent or buy? I expected the never buy anything in Thailand brigade of course, and that includes you with your silly post. You didn't think for a moment you were funny, did you? My guess is, the money for 3 sausages is all you have to show for
  7. His net worth, that is what is known, is estimated at 70.000.000.000 baht. I have such a feeling that he not gonna worry if it declined by a few billion baht.
  8. In Thailand, in any government office or whatever other public company, the rules are made up on the spot by the person at the other side of the desk.
  9. At the age of 65, and after being retired 33 years ago, I feel I'm qualified to make my own financial decisions. I have lived here for 30 years, so I have a good clue on what has happened during that time. I also know that money in a bank account depreciates faster than a property.
  10. I didn't think about View talay 6, so will have a look. Certainly I'm not looking something too close to Buakhow, as I'm aware of the Airbnb, and I made that clear in the OP
  11. Can you stick some names to it please, so I can look up online Because rent is money thrown away. In my entire life I have rented only twice for 1 year. Once in my home country, and once when I arrived here. Money is in the bank anyway, earning an alms in interest.
  12. Wrong, the home is registered in my foreign name
  13. That is the whole purpose of this thread, and also the reason why I gave as many details a possible to make clear what I expect.
  14. Yes I maybe confused and thought it was the same. I assume grand avenue is then on the left side when coming from Buakhow, is that correct? Both are same developer I think, and my friend is suing the one on the left side
  15. Yes that i the one I mentioned in the OP, but at 80 > 100K m² a little too pricey, and yes I'm aware of the dodgy developer, since my friend is suing for 6 million for years already. The location is great, but 4 million buys you only about 43m², unless you go for the Thai quota, which I'm not interested in. For that price can get something around 60m² if you know where to look
  16. As the title says I'm looking to buy a 1 bedroom condo, or large studio +50 m², with easy reach to soi Buakhow. Not interested in soi buakhow itself, or ghetto's like Nirun, and neither the Base - Edge or other infamous Airbnb infested buildings. My budget is 3 - 4 million Furthest away from Buakow i would consider is pratumnak, but that is really the limit. I looked at Centara avenue residence, which would suit me as I think it is quiet enough there, but maybe a little pricey at +4 million for 43m² in foreign name. I only consider foreign name by the way. Also looked at LK Legend, which is more what I'm looking for, at +3 million for a 57m² studio. I'm not looking to stay there permanently, as I have my house 15 km outside Pattaya, or to rent out. The purpose is as a getaway place, where I can stay few weeks at the time when I want to go out. So car and bike parking will also be a requirement. I know I can stay in a hotel, but that is not of my interest either, as it would mean moving stuff with me each time, and can't leave a motorbike there all the time either. Any suggestions where I should look are welcomed
  17. Indeed there is no need to move your account, since you can do all administration at wherever branch
  18. Banks are starting to remove online banking, some banks did already, so soon you may have a need to use the Android app.
  19. Like I said it are only some channels, not that many either, so you are maybe lucky and not notice it. If you use the Iptvsmarters or XCIPTV app, which use EXO by default, you may not notice it either. I haven't tried Tox 3, and I actually suspect it may also be the OS that causes the issue, since most of those S905X4 boxes run official Android TV 11
  20. That is Bold indeed
  21. Yes I was also surprised, but I have tried several boxes with that processor and several iptv services/ That said it are only few channels so. It also depends on which app you use, since some use EXO player by default, which is the built in Android player. Some apps also use software decoding by default, and then you will not have the issue either. Which box and app are you using for your iptv?
  22. From the article Parra would allegedly send out a notice for specific models of phones he wanted, A "tech guy" would then allegedly hack the stolen phones, access banking and financial apps and drain the accounts, police said. If they ran dry or the owners placed a lock on their money, the stolen phones would then be sent around the country or to Colombia to be reprogrammed and sold. So nothing to do with the apps. He knew which phones he could hack and which not
  23. Yes that is the common way. Look up the definition of common. How about the article in the OP, you think that is a lie?
