I just received PC RAM modules from the usual suspects online, and they are counterfeit. In fact, I knew before even ordering them that they were counterfeit, as I went through the reviews and found plenty of evidence. The only reason I ordered them is that I wanted to see with my own eyes how good copies they are, and then report the seller for counterfeit when I send them back. And yes they are real good copies these days, and most people don't know it, which is evidenced by the hundreds of 5 star reviews the listings get. The package is identical to original, and eyeballing them and comparing to the real thing, doesn't show any difference. Inserting them in the PC and running CPU-Z or other software, shows it is the real thing again. Correct specs, manufacturer correct, chip manufacturer correct. RAM tests give also positive results. I have looked at Youtubes about how to find the counterfeits, and what is shown there is a different quality of what I received. The only way I could detect it, other that there is no Synnex or other warranty provider sticker, is by scanning the QR code on the module. This results is a completely different RAM module from the same manufacturer. The QR code on the packaging label is completely different by the way, and takes you to Sh**ee and Laz**a. So that brings me to the question. Since they are these days capable of making near perfect counterfeits, who says that the chips are not of near same quality? So would you use them, knowing they are counterfeit, but at half the price

Thai Restaurant Operators Ask Government to Unlock Alcohol Sale Hours
BenStark replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Isn't it a bit ridiculous to suggest they ask to be allowed selling alcohol during hours they are permitted already? -
I thought political parties were disbanded if there was suspicion they were run by people banned from politics?

You can find a negative review about every device, even the best one on the market, if you search long enough. Congratulations, it took you long to find a thread to put your usual, I know it all better, stamp on it. BTW the review is written by someone who just became and adult and purchased his very first Android box. Sure he knows everything

Because you didn't pay yet doesn't mean it isn't owed. Land taxes are a law for several years already, but as with everything else in Thailand, the laws are not enforced. I think there is also a clause that if you are registered as living in the property, you're exempt.

BenStark replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
This is what you said, so obviously in your mind people wear jewellery to impress others. That you don't wear any is either because you're too cheap or too skint I mean, who do I seek to impress, and why? -

You conveniently forget to mention the bid-ask spread and the exchange fees you have to pay at both ends. And 2 baht fee for 3 million baht is just pure drivel from someone who didn't make a transaction -

The one and only real crypto expert on this forum, you find him in the crypto forum has been predicting that once the crypto ETF were approved, it would catapult BTC to 200K, The ETF's were approved by the SEC on Wednesday, and the red dot in the screenshot is when they started trading yesterday. My guess is that the elastic in the catapult broke
