Cost me 2000 thb when i did it in May. Bit white knuckle at times though on the way back...

Does your underwear hold any sentimental value ?

Welcome to how the new owners plan on monetizing the site even more.....

i'm getting a test popup in chrome on every page i visit on Thaivisa. I DO hope this is not the start of in your face ads....

Also pre-ordered a 6s plus Saturday - passed my employee ID across to get that guaranteed for the 25th as i know they are having display manufacturing problems and numbers will be lower

I can confirm that beta testers were not offered iOS 9 final following the keynote, as was earlier rumoured would be the case.

You're right. I got offered (and installed) IOS 9.1

Send her a brolly.

For HDD space, move less frequently accesed files like photos and movies/music to an external drive, and when travelling only copy the stuff you'll actually watch/listen to.

I've got away with a 32GB SSD on /System, and a secondary 500GB mounted as /Users - that old workhorse is now 9 years old and still being used...

I've seen a lot of mistakes in my time. Databases and other backend servers given an Internet Accessible IP - WITHOUT any form of firewall (This is a large VoIP provider here in the UK too!). The last two enviroments i've worked on have been a bit more security focused, with limited network access and totally locked down firewalls. It's pleasing, but hackers have a habit of exposing even the smallest exploit.

Nothing is safe. After I saw a demonstration of a completely disconnected laptop get infected by another (using the mic and speaker to deploy a payload untrasonically from it's BIOS address space!)

If you're an administrator or a webmaster with a VPS somewhere, just please keep on top of your updates, and review logs frequently....

Just bumping this thread. Today DJI dropped the price of the Phantom 3 Standard. As a gesture to those who have recently purchased one, they have emailed a coupon for a free Intelligent Flight Battery (Worth about 6000 odd baht). Apparently if you bought from a local supplier, you should speak to them......I don't think I can link the DJI forums, but there is a discussion there.....

I guess this means i'll have to shower with the wife more and drink beer in preference to water.

Just doing my part..... <Starship Troopers> ARE YOU!</starship Troopers>

My second idea would to be to develop a taste for small barbecued birds - I mean, sparrow is lovely! Consider them "cocktail chickens"

Fashion Island is on the other end of Nawamin (practically) and closer than BKP Mall.

I used iLikeHD for the first time today, and was somewhat impressed at its performance, based on the wishy-washy performance of the condo building WiFi that I have to use.

There is an online channel guide of sorts. For about half of the channels there was no info, but for the rest it was useful. I forget just where I found the channel guide and right now I'm out of credits to check.

Probably the biggest downside of iLikeHD is that most of the channels I watch are only 480p, which is really not a great picture. I get better picture quality on regular non-HD broadcast channels. However, I'm sure that having a relatively low resolution helps greatly in reducing buffering/stuttering.

Will put more money on my account tomorrow and do some more exploring.

Would the 480p problem be because the player is downscaling based on your wifi performance when you initially start ? IT sounds like you DO get some 720p/1080p channels though, so i could be talking s**t.

Get a stuffed owl or falcon and tie it up in the branches or something ? I dont know, without knowing the species, would be touch exploiting their predators.......just an idea,,,

Yeah +1 - I got one whilst working in the UK, although there was extra faffing around involved.

It's normally on new product launch, so 9th. Saying that, i've been running a few months, quite nice.

What work can be done by a foreigner and not a Thai in the restaurant trade ?

If we came from monkeys, why do we still have monkeys ??

I'm waiting for member "KenDiddsMOMinLaw" to sign up - the posts will be far more entertaining;

"Day 4 - the idle ferrang has still not offered to feed me. God knows why my dear little girl chose this oaf. I've had to survive on toothpaste alone. I decided to sweep the floors because his toe rot is starting to blemish the tiles."

"Day 5 - I started smoking, in a hope he'll get up off his ass to go to the shops for more, and maybe some noodle packets...Decided to invent some Colgate based deserts. Colgate and rice was not cutting it..."

"Day 6 - Found a cobra under a bucket in the garden. Do these go well with colgate ?"

"Day 7 - I've started smiling at him. He smiles back. If a smile can say a thousand words, mine say only four. "Are you still here?""

Ahem......receiving "oral relief" just after the givee had eaten a rather potent Somtam.......

I've seen this one before, poor bloke was completely off his tree dancing with a street sign.

Guessing here the husband came home.....

Get Wifi Analyzer on your phone and see if you have congested channels - you're most likely on channel 6 - which is a default.

if thats the case, use the channel chooser on the app and then change channel on your router - you should experience an improvement.

I find the local drivers extremely undisciplined when it comes to roundabout etiquette. In my home town we have the "Magic Roundabout" - Something like that in Thailand would be carnage!

Could have been worse. He could have headed to Thermae...
