I haven't used it but asked an AI about the procedure and it seems it required USB booting into a special recovery OS in order to do the recovery. Are you in a situation where you've lost a disk and hence all the live date and replaced the computer with a new one?

I've been asked and it was the one time I had a one way flight into Thailand with no planned exit AND no valid visa. Coincidence, perhaps? I had a special letter with me from Thailand Elite explaining in English that I will be met at the arrival gate and taken to immigration where a 5 year visa would be inserted into my passport and I would be admitted into the country with a 1 year stamp. At the end of the day that's all they care about - that they don't have to transport you back without a booking as it becomes an issue for them.

Yes they do and if you don't have the right type of visa they may deny boarding so better to have some kind of onward travel ticket.

This is not correct, it does not matter what anyone else has written on this forum.

lol

Not really, I use Kraken in the US. Nothing Thai involved at all. I would however like to read this law which specifies that foreign purchased crypto assets are taxed using a cost basis of zero Baht instead of the actual cost.

You're not allowed to do that any more 🤣

I'm going to hazard a guess and suggest that it's something to do with the alcohol in the drinks How easy would it be to taint the entire tourist industry for someone or some group with a grudge?

Right, just like Boris, Liz and Rishi 🙄

When you paste something it brings fonts with it but you can get rid of them by clicking the 'Paste as plain text instead' thing that pops up at the bottom in the black line. This is on the website version - here's a sample screen shot - click the link at the end of the arrow :

I've been here since before 2010, easily doable.

So what? You don't need to mix with such people. Avoid the absolute dumps of places and you never see all the above.

What they're speaking of here is not what you think it is - an 'Enrolled Agent' for the IRS does not work for the IRS. It's an approval rating for a tax accountant granted by the IRS and must be maintained with some ongoing training, etc. Similar to a CPA but with more focus on taxation issues then general accounts - that is my understanding. They are not employees of the IRS.

Unless you want that stamp, some people like it to prove travel history in various contexts, including Thais.

Hold on a minute - didn't they legalise this in some way for small quantities which they didn't appear to actually have on them. If you can carry around small quantities of this stuff then how can it be illegal to have consumed it?

Well the initial policy was created by a memo back in the 1980s and then rescinded with another memo in 2023. I believe they attempted to go after someone going against the grain of the 1980s memo but failed in court - and that's what made it official. I'm still expecting someone to challenge this new memo / series of memos but that might take a very long time. You are completely correct though - they alter their interpretations of the laws by issuing memos here.

What do you mean? Some of these devices were placed in the wrong locations, the others would have been burned and melted. There were fires.

I've seen images of simple little devices found around raging forest fires which are designed to start them. They consist of 2 or 3 'twig' like branches of wood from trees stuck into the ground and have a magnifying glass held in place on them - they hold it in place perfectly to focus the sunlight when it comes the next day. These are found in many places where wildfires 'break out'. Some of them fail and they get found but I can not find the images on the internet anywhere these days - they have been 100% scrubbed from existence. Now I guess it's not a great idea to provide instructions to would be arsonists but this is the level they are operating at - for many many years.

It's a little nuts, but then again - in this show so is the John Brown character.

And that right there is why I spent only about 175 days in Thailand in 2024.

Something similar happened back in late 2023 just weeks before it went into administration. Seems a little odd.

Indeed, this guy went from a bit part actor to a major script writing machine including big hits like Sicario and it's sequel.

Have you watched 'Deadwood' and 'The Good Lord Bird'. This one reminded me of Deadwood in a way. One thing about this American Primeval is that it is largely based on real events with fictional details added of course to pad it out. Things sure were brutal back then!

There's a lot more to this than meets the eye. The BodyShop UK, the parent company that operates the international franchises went into administration back in February 2024. This entire company is in big trouble.

Oh you missed soething alright, you're mixing up twp different deaths. What I iwant to know is - whas a Thai national responsible for this 'tragic accident' or whatever it was and why they are not being made to pay? Always the foreigner being made to pay large amounts of money - and this guy has already been diagnosed as having suffered a 'fatal' incident - so he's dead but on machines.
