  1. If you stay more than 180 days, you should register for a tax number. Monthly income tax would be only about 1717 Baht on 1500$. Peanuts.
  2. Black Mirror Netflix Yellowstone Season 1-3 Netflix, Season 4 Amazon DVD. Narcos Mexico / Narcos Netflix
  3. One should create a copy of Pattaya a bit closer to Bangkok for Chinese tourists, as Pattaya is simply overcrowded. The Chinese love such replicas, as seen with Jackson Hole, Thames Town, Venice Water Town, Shanghai Oktoberfest, Beijing Oktoberfest and other copies in China.
  4. The free Grok account has limitations. X Premium+ and SuperGrok are pricier than ChatGPT-4o. When it comes to coding, multiple languages, and broad knowledge, ChatGPT outperforms Grok.
  5. Only applies to those not using their own phone number.
  6. they suck you and later want money.
  7. Was'nt it the result of the car accident, a few days before?
  8. Does the thai insurance pay for accidents in cambodia?
  9. Only regulated companies (bitkub, skrill, ...) are legal in th. Best if you go on the offensive and clear it up with the authorities. If you’re in Pattaya, I can recommend Magna Carta as a law firm.
  10. normally it takes 1-2 week days --- if rejected or not.
  11. Mix Yoghurt with some spoons of Inulin. Ready.
  12. Is Gerard Depardieu actually in Phuket?
  13. Yeah, that was back when you only had to show up an hour before your flight. 9/11 changed all.
  14. Snagged a coffee machine (2k), a grinder (1.5k), and some beans off NocNoc – saved a bunch over the usual prices. Freshly ground coffee? Absolute game-changer!
  15. Instead of giving the successful course provider an opportunity to generate tax revenue and teach interested people Thai, they will likely imprison and deport her, despite her having a work permit. The stubborn adherence to outdated rules from grandma's era shows that time has stood still in Thailand. Outside Thailand, she will offer exactly the same courses and earn a lot of money, which she will then pay taxes on in a potentially more appreciative country.
  16. Police droids can be reprogrammed...
  17. Some people feel also offended by loud prayer towers. I’m with the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster. If our preacher blasted ‘Tomato Sauce Hardcore’—our sacred speed metal anthem—from the prayer towers, people wouldn’t dig that either.
  18. Terrible, right, that amputation has to happen immediately. Every hospital (especially public ones) is obligated to provide assistance in life-threatening emergencies – even without immediate payment.
  19. Sad. I hope he recovers. But afterward, they should give him the medication first – before handing him the hospital bill.
  20. A legal copy ist already 1200 Baht. Sounds like the shop did a full reinstall instead of just cloning your old drive, and they may not have set up the SSD properly. A few things to check: Check boot order in BIOS/UEFI: Maybe it’s trying to boot from the wrong device first. Enter BIOS (usually by pressing Del, F2, or Esc during startup) and make sure the SSD is the first boot device. Fast Startup / Hibernate issues: Windows Fast Startup can cause boot problems on fresh installs. Try disabling it: Control Panel > Power Options > Choose what the power buttons do > Change settings that are currently unavailable > Uncheck “Turn on fast startup” Drivers or firmware If the SSD firmware or chipset drivers are missing or outdated, the system might hang. Go to the SSD manufacturer's site and get the latest firmware/drivers. Windows installation mode (AHCI vs RAID): If the SSD was installed with incorrect BIOS settings (like using RAID mode instead of AHCI), it can cause weird startup behavior. Changing this after installation requires care though, or Windows might fail to boot. As a temporary workaround: If you always have to hard-restart to make it boot, try doing a full shutdown (Shift + Shutdown) and see if that helps. Also test whether it behaves the same after sleep or hibernate.
