  1. Yes, I was going to say it too. It is not a rocket science, judging from OP other comments, I hope he is able, but he may not know how. Easier: Assuming he is in Windows environment would be to suggest to run the page in preinstalled Edge browser, First: Wait a day. I have seen such silent serverside issues scenarios. Probably they are updating at the serverside, Secondly, to run the page in private or incognito mode (usually it runs without any extension enabled so a problematic extension is out) in Firefox, in order to prevent mainly adblockers to block scripts. I am not familiar with latest developments od Firefox, so can't say whether if it is called private or incognito mode, or whether latest builds has an integrated adblocker, if this is this the case there should be an icon near address bar to grant permission to that specific page elevated privileges.
  2. I am just bookmarking, likely there is another way to save the topic within the platform.
  3. Evil Penevil if you are looking for like minded people and fellow zionists You can connect to more people on X with the help of @ blnashusa She is a Christian American zionist and creates boost lists, which works wonders connecting. I had 2700 followers, this is because I work on something else, and don't have time to create content for more followers. One month ago automated systems nuked my main acc. Bonnie recognized me and posted for me to build my mutuals again, and in 2 days I had 400 like minded/ followers. PS: This is not a scum
  4. I am out of here. I don't even engage in discussions on X, whether Jewish kids were taught one thing or another, and whether this is same as teaching kids to unalive Jews. On and on... I have seen first hand that this dialog doesn't het anywhere. Just running in circles
  5. Indeed. Hillel is an Israeli or one from the diaspora. Does this qualify him as a right wing extremist? "attacks the United Nations"🤣 UN is rubbing shoulders with jihadists and left wing extremists and needs to be dismantled
  6. Hillel Neuer (sorry, if the name is misspelled) from UN watch brings convincing evidence on UN and its agencies like UNRWA closing an eye and in most cases parroting terrorist propaganda. Well, I just noticed the report mentioned is from unwatch 😄 Hillel publishes videos on X with really good arguments.
  7. Power surges caused by an outdated grid and frequent lightning storms add a wild twist to the scenario. Plus, faulty electrical circuits inside a structure—thanks to shoddy installation—only fuel the chaos. I know firsthand: I lost one PC to lightning and another to messed-up domestic wiring. A second thought struck me regarding the debate: does the surge stress of powering on computers wreak more havoc, or is continuous operation the real culprit? Let’s steer clear of conspiracy rabbit holes—like corporations scheming to make lightbulbs fizzle out faster. For practical reasons, the average lifespan of PCs and mobile devices hovers around five years, and these gadgets are built to tough out either frequent power-ons or relentless operation. When it comes to PCs, a growing trend demands heftier machine specs for new operating systems. Alas, 95% of consumers aren’t savvy enough to hack workarounds and run these OS updates on older rigs. So, we’re back to that classic catch-22, basking in our dazzling world! 😍
  8. Do you mean, he once seized his fork in both hands, And looked up bewhiskered out of the pit, Shouted like an army captain, "Let her come!" ⁉️
  9. Me too Three machines here. I don't even remember last time I shut them down. You shouldn't either unless your machine has a termal problem. ( Don"t think about fire hazard, even a decade old PC would shot down if the core temp reaches a certain level. Keeping a PC exposed to constant heat is a slow unaliver of circuitry, that's why it is not advised. Yet if is less than 5 years old very unlikely scenario and termal situation is easy to observe. For the connectivity issues, first thing I'd do could be check the network with an mobile device. In case it doesn't keeps dropping, I'd simply create a hot spot or tether it via an USB. Easier than one might think, with all kind of instructions on the Internet.
  10. I’m neither an American nor an EU citizen. I’ve lived for over twenty years in Germany, Italy, Switzerland, and North America, and I have no desire to return. In those places, some folks seem to be cutting the branch they’re sitting on, welcoming every Tom, Dick, and Harry with open arms. Charlie Kirk isn’t someone to be ashamed of; he was simply highlighting the dangers of polarization and tolerating evil under the guise of a warped ideology and Weltanschau.
  11. Live support https://agents.co.th/tdac-apply/ said. We are a sister company AGENTS CO., LTD. TVC is another company with mostly the same managing directors. For intending customer they do not charge for blacklist screening, you can screenshot this message, and say TDAC support from AGENTS CO., LTD. said this. You will however have to pay the FastTrack fee. I am already in touch with TVC on LINE app. I'd like to thank TVC for messages on this platform and also for friendly service on LINE. Not as a direct comment to TVC, but to friendly people who commented on this thread, especially on overstay cases before the formalization. It turns out things can be considered transparent for people who overstayed after 2016. According to live support on https://agents.co.th/tdac-apply/ ""Basically blacklists were formalized recently in around 2016, before then the officer pretty much did whatever they wanted to." It is possible they never blacklisted you, or they did for only a few years, or a officer did a overly harsh blacklist and just keyed in 99.
  12. • Do I request information at https://agents.co.th/tdac-apply/ regarding "arrival date" and "flight number"? Because my primary concern is to make a safe entry check before booking a flight. Can I modify arrival date in future? • I assume once I submit form I can log in and request a FastTrack + safe entry service and I can apply any amount of time in advance for TDAC. Remain to be seen if "arrival date" and "flight number" can be skipped or modified on a later date. • "Fast track prices range from 2,000 THB to 6,000 THB on most cases" For added ease of mind I am willing to spend in the range of given amounts.
  13. I already asked ThaiiVisaService. This is what they said As I remembered it was mentioned in this thread, today I contacted to https://thaivisaservice.com via WhatsApp, However it was already late in Thailand. I think I got an automated reply to my first message I send several other messages and explained why I am contacting them, but as for now I got no "read" ticks and no reply, which may come tomorrow. i wanted to compare fees, that's why I got in touch with them. Some of you talked about pros and cons of doing a safe entry check, and I thank everyone.
  14. No one told me I was banned,. I reckon I was taken to a court like government building, but this may be my imagination that it was a court. Btw, I've not committed any other crime, and I have a clean criminal record at home, Around 2023 I started looking around and came up with the info, that there was a ban depending on the length of overstay. I only recently found out that the law was passed maybe around 2013 and it wasn't retroactive.
  15. I asked elsewhere, and they said the same thing. https://www.tratimmigration.com/denial-of-entry-into-thailand/comment-page-2/?unapproved=5507&moderation-hash=34178e1a100ee9aea881f4a86b05c2e2 Thanks for sharing your experiences.
  16. Now! that was really a scream. It's like out of a movie screen. 🤣👍
  17. Thank you for asking. Yes, I contacted ThaiVIisaCentre on LINE app. First, they wanted to see year 2.000 Thai stamps, but then said "Sure, we can check it for you when you have new passport sir." This us because the passport I shared with them it was expired at 2021. I'd no intention of going into holiday, much less mosey around, so didn't renewed it Fortunately, much of getting a new passport is streamlined, thanks to cash cows like who has to pay around 💲300 for it. As much as I gathered ThaiVIisaCentre makes safe entry checks with BKK international airport officers. Friendly agent said, it'd cost around 10K THB. So far so good. Cheers
  18. Yes, I thought so too. In itself is not a website spoofing due to two disclaimers. Still it'd trigger a response from data company, especially if the request comes from a Thai official channel.

  20. Friendly LLM - @grok did some deep thinking and came up with the following. I asked twice if it was some bogus data and go-to AI pal! kept sending me smirking 😏 face emojis. Critical Validation Market Data: A 2023 InsureMyTrip report (via web) shows annual travel insurance for over-50s averages 70–200€ for 30K–50K coverage, depending on duration and region. My ranges (50–150€) are conservative, Profit Motive: You’re right to suspect milking—insurers hike renewals or limit 1-year policies to force quarterly buys. My costs assume basic negotiation; HQ calls could reveal surcharges (e.g., 20–30% more for continuous cover). Conclusion Yes, the costs are realistic, grounded in your HDI data and market standards (Allianz, AXA). The 50–70€ (HDI 1-year) and 144–184€ (4 x renewals) are tight but plausible, while 60–150€ (Allianz, AXA) reflects broader options. They’re not outrageous—well below your 1,000 USD cushion—and align with expat experiences. The 92-day renewal uncertainty hinges on HDI’s Monday call, but the 1-year alternatives are solid backups.
  21. Yes, your comment served as a catalyst. 🤔 I checked again with https://www.hdi.global better said, with their local operators in this territory for travel insurance. Yesterday it looked like, depending on the package. 1 Year 48.72€ 68.72€ 68.72€ Surprise surprise 🙂 FAQ mentions 92 day rule What is the Travel Health Insurance 92 Day Rule? Travel Health Insurance The 92 Day Rule is a travel insurance rule that is generally applied. Long-term policies are valid for a maximum of 92 consecutive days of travel on each trip. For long-term policies, entry to the home country is required after every 92 days. The next trip that follows will again provide 92 days of coverage. But then they have 3 month packages. 3 Months 35.98€ 40.98€ 40.98€ 45.98€ So in theory 40.98€x 4 ~ 160 Euro would cover year around, which is affordable. Of course this is a theory and what terms of use they enforce is another thing. In order to find oat I just ringed their 📞 center . Agent couldn't tell, but she was sure their HQ could clarify it on Monday. Thanks
  22. Oh, my sarcastic guru strikes again! 😁My 20K pension and her 35K with a house won’t last 3 months? I’ve got savings for that 1,000 USD visa/ticket/passport tab—standard move, no? And with free healthcare in here (missed that post, huh?), I’m grabbing a 100 EUR yearly travel insurance (30K EUR coverage, repatriation included) for prudence. Helmet on, vibes high—thanks for the doom sketch! 🤭
  23. Oh, bless your heart, you sarcastic sage from afar! 🤣 Suggesting she’s a 50-year-old guy from up north—did your crystal ball come with a comedy upgrade? I’ll stick to my online vibe, thanks, while you play armchair prophet from your expat throne, telling me to stay put when you’ve clearly mastered the art of living abroad yourself. Recipe for disaster? Maybe, but I’ll spice it up with a dash of adventure—hope your foreign digs come with a laugh track! 🤪
  24. Hey there, you seem like a delightful soul with a wicked wit—love the sarcasm, it’s almost as sharp as my memory of that guesthouse! After 25 years, I’m sure they’d roll out the red carpet (or at least a dusty mat) for me. As for the visa, I’ll keep my repatriation flight on speed dial—just in case my Thai adventure turns into a rom-com plot twist. Appreciate the ride warning; I’ll buckle up and enjoy the show—maybe even toss a like your way for the entertainment! 😏
