  1. Good ideas on proper education. I guess you've never taught here. It's a wasteland of chancers.
  2. Whatever is on your phone will remain on your phone. Without the Google account you will not be able to access the Play store. You will not be able to receive updates via the Play store. Delete old accounts. That also deletes your personal data. Don't just abandon.
  3. Is it now possible to make an appointment for O visa renewal / extension at Chaeng Wattana? *Since I'm asking - has anything changed? How many days prior can I do the extension? I recall something like 45 (40?) ? ------------ 90 day is 15 before and 7 after? Or is it two weeks (14)? Sorry, I can never keep this straight. Does CW do residence certificates now? What would I need for that? Thank you
  4. Unless he's a ticking time bomb blood pressure absolutely nothing that would prevent an ultra wealthy person to go about their daily, soft life. Now, of course he's supposed to be in jail which might add stress. Nevertheless, ridiculous to think that 21c medicine cannot manage billionaire hypertension
  5. Well, what did you expect? You're on SUKHUMVIT! Especially if you are lower than Ekamai. I'm guessing you are on the very low side. It's all hell. I've never lived on sukhumvhit and doubt I ever would. The only beggar I ever see is a lepar that is sometimes strategically placed outside my MRT. Other than that it's local, residential and quiet-bustling. That area while it can be fun on an oft moon is absolutely dire. What did you expect?
  6. God and religion were the basis of our humanity's artistic and cultural expression. This had not changed in thousands of years. Modern art is basically a way to store and launder wealth. As a society, we value little modern art because it's of little value.
  7. The world outside southern Africa will be populated by their nation states. The upper caste will be a mix of in utero and wholly artificial wombs. CRISPR, eugenics, bionics. It is simply not worth the blood, toil and treasure to have a child. That is a very, very sad truth The hoi palloi will be anything from mistakenly pregnant upper middle class fallen thru the cracks to outright peasants. The two groups will not mix. That is the freeborn with the highborn. Expect a scrum that will mirror every well made dystopian book and movie.* if populations dwindle too far it is possible that the elite might pull from the best of this bottom lot. I'm no soothsayer... Between the incomes vs expense and what a disaster (legal and otherwise) marriage has become no one will willingly have children. Look at what a ghost nation Japan has become. Much of the USA, rural Europe. Look at issarn. Case study... bring in the machines.
  8. Don't prepay. That's not going to end well. Thailand is a country of show me the goods - I give you the money. If some reason the costs are up they will ask for more this is absolutely guaranteed. So you're trusting someone with a down payment for years to make good on it and not stress out your loved ones. Naw... A stack of 100,000 notes will do just fine.
  9. Massive parallels between US and Thailand over last 20+ years. Not in a good way for either.
  10. My wife has been tested a few times and not by my choice. Thus far she (we) soldier on together. Happily. Simple, comfortable urban life for now and we explore the future. My wife is absolutely unique even for the best nature of lovely Thai women. In fifteen years she is always genuinely happy and living in the moment, impossible to anger, full of love and kindness and endlessly forgiving of my many faults. An absolute gem of a human being. She was pretty cute when I met her as well and not unattractive at 48. Only gained about 3kg in that time as well. I'd absolutely sworn off marriage. Met her at 49 and never dated another woman. We were inseparable.
  11. If she went to good Bangkok school she would have received it a decade ago. Believe me, I know
  12. Because issarn constituency is crying out for digital wallets and money. Not debt relief, education, jobs, training, wellness.
  13. I don't believe you can. I think there are issues with both being over 50 as well as being a foreigner. In fact I had read this sometime in the past on this forum
  14. You can't. You can get a soft version of VPN free with 1111.
  15. Does anyone know of a third party repair monkey that can replace ipod classic clickwheel and ipod touch earphone jack? Krap khun
  16. Would love to read the legal decision. Poor kids.
  17. Ironic, given that government protestors were languishing in jails with COVID. I think 1-2 may have even died but a good many seriously ill. Not to mention the hunger strikes. It really makes one question living here
  18. I am not in this boat. My wife has proven herself, devotion, dedication to me countless times over a decade and a half.
  19. You've already acknowledged you're an ATM. Time to go. Get yourself financially situated so that you can access your finances away from her. Fake some problem such as you've lost all your money in the market. Tell her she'll have to cover at least her expenses. She will leave you.
  20. There's no news article. What is this lazy post? Appears to have nothing to do with Thailand?
  21. Ten days in hospital and then sent home for recovery. All going according to plan ????????
