Is certainly not a factor in (more expensive) phones with more RAM. These days I wouldn't recommend anything less than 32gb.
I think you mean ROM....

I think I recall reading that Samsung blocks using the sd card as internal memory, as is possible with a less skinned version of Marshmallow. Also, no apps on the card. Only photos and videos can go on the card..
I know someone with this phone. IMHO the phone is just barely usable because of the inability to delete Samsung bloatware.
Having it rooted is an option, but selling it would be a better option...

Who does the Porsche belong to? The owner of the Ducati shop?

I'm pretty sure it will be using GBoard, which gets great reviews online.

I don't think the above post is entirely accurate. Xiaomi has released the list of devices scheduled to receive MIUI 9. It is based on Nougat or Android 7, not Android 6.

I have read sometime in August ( a year after Android 7 was first released). It will be Miui 9.
This is for the Redmi Note 4X...

Yet, he seems to be carving out a living doing exactly that...
Not a fan myself, but I do get a kick out of all the pensioners who hate the guy and don't really know why. They think it's because he's an opinionated, entitled, no talent twerp. But that's not it.
Yes, it's fun to imagine the looks of outrage on their faces..
Years ago, too many years ago, expats who landed in Thailand would have been life on the edge kinda guys....

So what's next? Legalize homicide?
Because 'enlightened' citizens believe a law/s should be repealed isn't grounds for so doing.
I say that using drugs is a medical problem, but trafficking drugs is a serious crime, and should be deal with as such. The problem you encounter is that so many users do a little dealing (or a lot) on the side, so determining which is which becomes somewhat blurred.
When governments declare war, homicide becomes legal.
When enough "enlightened" citizens believe a law should be repealed, it is repealed. We call that Democracy.
Using and trafficking of drugs are 2 sides of the same coin.. Can't have one without the other in an environment where the product is currently proscribed but the demand continues unabated.

Unlike many here, but certainly not all, I do not and have never supported the War on Drugs. It was always a Civil War, with governments attacking their own citizens..
Unlike most governments though, the US government has aggressively pursued the citizens of other countries and detained them in American prisons. In that respect, not unlike their general Geo-political strategy.
I am not anti American, but I reserve the right to be critical of a failed policy that has been ridiculously expensive and harmful to countless of their own people and those of other countries.
In fact, the American people themselves have had enough of this doomed to be endless war and through bottom-up referendums are rolling back this policy.
Soon, my own country of Canada will take it's place on the right side of history with a top-down Government-led reversal of this failed policy.

Funny that you are using the bike for touring so much. Basically, it's a boulevard cruiser...
Having said that, I did ride an old-style Honda 150 CBR from Pattaya to Chiang Mai and back. Riding in the company of much larger bikes, so many hours well up the rev counter. Never missed a beat.

That's drastic behavior...
But..faced with many years in a cage and no parole (if Federal), not entirely insane.
Better to die on your feet than live on your knees.
You are, by definition, off your feet when you are hanging, but you get my drift I'm sure...

I have to correct my earlier post. It is Krung Sri Bank (yellow) that does the counter withdrawals without ATM fees, not Krung Thai.
-
Ok....I had the same problem with a Canadian Debit card earlier this year. At first it would work in some ATM machines but not in others. I called Customer Services in Canada and was told no problems with my account.
I went to Krung Thai bank as they allow counter withdrawals with a Debit card and a Passport. I had never done this before but was curious about the process because you avoid the 220 Baht ATM fee. As my Debit card did not show my name, they declined to do the transaction.
At this point I was unable to get any money because it did not work in any ATM. Not a complete disaster as I have money in a Thai account but usually I withdraw money with the Debit card. Kasikorn said the problem was a scratch on the magnetic strip. It was a very small scratch and the card had a chip as well.
I called Customer Services for my bank again and explained the problem. The rep said that it was current practice not to show the name on a debit card for security purposes. Also said that the bank systems in developing countries were less than robust. They replaced the card, with my name on it, and sent it to Thailand by DHL/FedEx at no cost to me. They said it would take 5 working days but I received it in 3 working days. Great service and I now have no problems.

Let them smoke outside, problem solved.
Now that's just mean!
Mind you, we Canadians have to go outside to smoke in -40C. A few of us might give it a go... They are Northern people too, so might also give it a try.
A canister of oxygen/with mask, a parka, a means of tethering to the aircraft...
The combination of oxygen and smoking adding that frisson of fear. And no, a Bic is not going to work. So I guess you would use a vaporizer. Hey, that solves the oxygen/flame problem...
But if it were me, after going to all that trouble, I would have 2 vaporizers. One would have the "special" Stuff.

Your earlier links show it to be a discontinued model..
-
I used it Friday.

To add..
The same thing happened to me here in Thailand. My BMW 520i burst a coolant hose at highway speed.. The vapour cloud alerted me and I pulled over. Towed to a local repair shop. The next day hose was replaced, coolant replaced, and I drove it home. No apparent long term damage (cylinder head) and I drove the car for another 2 years.
But I'll never forget that it happened.
-
It's good that Ford handled the problem to your satisfaction, but that would be called a "catastrophic failure". The engine had to be replaced. And saying that Ford doesn't even make the hoses would have given me no comfort at all. Those hoses are on every Everest...

Complain to the store manager. It's a family operation and there is a younger manager who obviously was schooled in the United States.
If you have a good-sized bruise to show, I'm pretty sure that they don't want the parking guards to injure their customers...

Considering the usual Thai approach of violent retribution, I think she is acting in a rather grown-up way.
Exactly. Instead of cackling like a bunch of fishwives, how about a little empathy. Whatever her reason for hanging onto the car a little too long, it added physical injury to her injured pride.
So she has taken a legal remedy, available to her in Thailand.
This is what we hope for, after reading every news report of a violent domestic situation...

In US weed is still cheaper in the street
In the American states which have legalized already, prices have dropped almost 50%. Increased production. This is a huge business opportunity. Imagine getting in on the ground floor of the alcohol industry. There will be branding...

Didn't really see much about what visitors or tourists to Canada could do. Will they be able to buy it legally, or will only Canadians be allowed to do so? If only Canadians, I am sure there will be lots of dealing on the street as a Canuck sells to a casual American visiting, and the numbers could get large.
Legal means legal. It will be different from the Uruguay model, which apparently is restricted to Uruguayan citizens. The American states which have legalized have no restrictions on non-residents.

That news story is 3 months old...
Last I heard the legislation is due to be announced in early July. Soon now, but...
I don't know if I can hold my breath that long!

HomePro used to have webbing that might be suitable though perhaps bright green or red (could be dyed). Otherwise might look thru Lazada and see if there's a strap in the right width you could cut: http://www.lazada.co.th/catalog/?itemperpage=120&q=strap.
Not sure who could sew it but find the recent thread on bag repair and try a shop mentioned therein.
Don't encourage him...
It's a motorcycle helmet, not a handbag!
