I haven't disengaged, I was sleeping New issue today - can't even get internet on my TV! awesome, works on my PC and phones but not on TV Technician coming later hopefully he can fix it - and yes I see Netflix is for various options, I got the package with no ads and 2 devices connected at any time, it's 18 bucks a month

translated from pics - it's telling me "Android 37d" is available to cast to, from anything on my PC screen - That's my Smart TV so I click on that, 'Android 37d' - screens on both go black, I have to hit escape to start again been trying since Monday off and on, couple hours per day, good thing I'm retired I guess - giving up again today screw this - only 24 days left on a subscription, I won't watch it on a 3 inch Phone or even a 20-inch monitor so goodbye netflix

tried that many times, no luck - both screens just go totally black my brand new TV has Miracast, which "should" work, but check this - even though my desktop reads it lower right as a 'castable' screen, to Miracast, which also reads it lower right - I get nothing except black screens if I click that - no idea why these pics are rotated like that I am taking them straight on Beyond frustrating

no VPN, also disconnected days ago I have tried, I'd say, just about everything, including customer support at 3 places with no luck. wasted at least 9 or 10 hours on it. Oh well, YouTube it is

if it were only that easy lol unhooked the ethernet days ago TV, Wi-fi are the same - no cast image on Netflix A bit frustrating, as I say 100% of all "other" websites come through perfectly fine, the YouTube app I have been watching since I arrived in October no issues at all, I only got Netflix because I was bored with it I need to cast because the huge N icon on my smart TV doesn't do <deleted> when I click it except tell me I have no connectivity

the brand-new TV came with Netflix as a pre-loaded app - when I click it, I get a pop-up that says "no network connectivity" which is really odd considering I connect to literally every website and app known to man except theirs

I paid for a pass to Netflix to try it out for a month, but can't seem to get it to cast from either my phone or desktop PC to my Smart TV. Been trying for days, have tried every way possible and yes the Wi-Fi matches for all 3 - casting YouTube or any other site or even my Chrome browser is no issue, can do it in seconds; Netflix and only Netflix seems to be a problem. Can't do it from the browser either, it's like it's blocked Should be an easy fix but I said that days ago and customer support at Netflix says contact your ISP, the ISP says contact the manufacturer of the TV, etc.... just nonsense anyway, any tips or suggestions appreciated

when I was looking for a place in Pratamnak in October for a year a few of the listings I saw said "No Chinese, No Indians, No Russians" Good luck with that last part

it's pretty pathetic, have to wonder if he's paying this forum $$$ to promote his crappy book - wish I had the 5 mins it took to read that tripe back there are hundreds just like it at any book store, dozens right at the airport kiosks

this post said exactly nothing

That's wrong, Canada and Thailand and Uruguay are all legal

when I was looking for a place to live last October many of the ads for Pratumnak where I eventually settled said; No Indians, No Chinese, no Russians Good luck with that last one

been noticing it more than ever this year after not visiting The Kingdom for a decade; lack of patience, lack of the famous Thai smile, seeming resentment at everything we do, even those who don't cause issues. There's a very small 2-table restaurant across the street from where I live, pretty much seems to be take-away only, Grab and locals come get the Pad Thai and Fried Rice dinners, at 50b each a great deal - never once got a smile from that lady, not even eye-contact after 5 or 6 orders; there won't be a 7th.

A lady who was known to walk beach road told a similar story - 4 Indian guys offering 500 baht - combined - for some fun

these kinda fights remind me of why I will never have a 'girlfriend' what in hell good does it ever do

Jeeeezh, who could have seen this coming except everyone - so many palms greased by now they can't just put a cork in all this. OR - 'allowing for adaptation' is just code for giving the shops more time to grease the new palms. One gram per day, that's pretty funny - more like 1 gram per hour during waking hours, which, granted is often interrupted by naps. anyway, all stoners who live here have the number or Line of their favorite shops and can stay in touch even if the laws get stricter - could be disruptive for tourists though.

weed smells better than sewers and exhaust fumes walk around Pattaya and certain parts of Bangkok near the Klangs, would you really rather smell human waste or ganja

exactly - go to Soi Bukhao any day, monday or Sunday or Friday, doesn't matter, there are expats and tourists getting absolutely blotted at 11am straight through until 3am - stoners lol, what's the issue, they take naps I smoke weed myself and heard a while back to never walk down the street with it, so I do it discreetly and quietly or in my apartment. This genie is out of the bottle, some Thai's may want it put back in but that's impossible now, too many palms have been properly greased - medical licenses not much different than similar scams in the states, pay some pop-up Doc shop X amount of dollars, get the license

Calling there today, will keep you posted; I also need to secure a ride or rent a car to go up to BKK - Thank you

That's less than .001% of what he has made JUST THIS YEAR Why not donate a billion?? He has it, why not spend it on Americans lol because he hates his loser base, they are trash and he knows it

OK, just back from BKK-Pattaya, spoke to my Doc there, here's the official deal from him; I need 3 procedures - the ESWL is up to me, 'elective' at whenever I want it. Each side is 220-250K baht He says I need Holium Laser treatment to break up the largest stone, as he's concerned it will block the urethra soon. That procedure is also in the 220-250K range and he says he can NOT do the lithotripsy for that side at the same time - totally different procedure. He says the largest one *needs* to come out, but that's assuming I am in pain - I am not, if it had dropped into the urinary tract it seems the URSL is necessary. Attached description of the first procedure. Renting a car and heading to Siriraj next week, see what they say. Thanks a lot for your advice - it's crazy to think the price in Pattaya would be around 140% more for the same procedure. Billing told me when I had the ESWL in 2012 it cost me 90K baht - I get inflation, but 240K from 90k? Nothing else around here has risen so dramatically in 13 years. They want a 190K deposit before starting.

why so much stone formation, who knows - 20 certainly isn't normal. Only around 9% of people from both sexes get Kidney stones, could be because not enough water but that seems crazy; I work out several times a week and drink copious amounts of water all day, have for years. No booze at all, no beer, some salt, soda and energy drinks but no more than the average human does. I could go to BKK, you mentioned Siriraj and I used to live not far from there - but you also sent a link to another hospital with the 99K lithotripsy, which one would you think could treat this better. Thankfully no pain at all, but waiting too long would change that of course

I agree 100%, although as I said earlier this is THEIR country and for me to not know Thai is my issue, not theirs. With that said, I swear I asked the nurses that work with Dr. Jimmy, is this for all three operations? 'yes' - do I need 2 or 3 procedures? 'Yes' - is this the total cost for all 3? 'yes' - essentially, nowhere. The billing office wasn't much better. The Doc spoke great english, but he just shook his head like he couldn't believe it when I said there was no pain, and that I needed the procedures done right away. Thankfully still no pain, but I have a dutch friend who has one large stone slip into his urethra and said the pain was beyond belief

was in a sports chat room from Boston on Friday, the Maga's were talking about the coming protests a day later - the chuds were saying they were all excited because in Floriduhh you could actually run them down in your car, wooo-hoooo!!! Take someone's life away, alllll righhttt!!! 'Merica! First amendment rights? Freedom to Assemble? Naaaa, Cletus needs to get his damn pickup-truck down to the Dollar General for some jerky and Dew!

the dude flies to a foreign country, craps on half of his OWN country, fellates daddy Putin on live TV for all the world to see, quits early and gets the hell out of there before Zelenskyy comes in tomorrow - because he's scared of him, and doesn't wanna piss off daddy. He hates better men then he, and let's face it - that's the vast majority of men, and almost 100% of world leaders. Boss Vlad, Xi and Kim, that's it - maybe Orban, that's all he will ever like because they have compliant slaves and no press or speech freedoms. Hates our allies because, again, they are better people than he is and they actually get respect - he gets zero. Even the despots hate him, check out the social media post from Xi today - they don't need America, he's saying take your 55% BS taxes and shove 'em up yer arse.
