Not a fan of the black shoes with any of their new colour uniforms. I would have thought a shade of brown would be more coordinated to the colours they have gone with. They seem to have matched the shoe colour to the hair colour. Odd.- Drunk driving monk: Altercation causes 8,000 baht damage to Thai teacher’s car

Just noticed a new option on the Youtube video quality settings for Premium users. 1080p Enhanced (Bitrate). They seem to be trying everything in the pursuit of $'s. $20 billion last year not enough?- Youtube
2 weeks ago I began to only get 2 videos per row on my Youtube account. Signing out it returned to 3 videos per row. My son's YT a/c was unchanged at 3 videos per row. Rescaling the PC I could get 3 videos per row. The problem was specific to only my a/c. I sent a feedback E-mail. to YT. Today, 2 weeks later, my a/c has returned to 3 videos per line, by default. Success, but still odd ( Were they testing some new format?) Interestingly I have ABP installed (PC) and I have not received any Youtube E-mails about removing it. It is working fine and the current score for Youtube ads that it has blocked so far is 1.529,148.

Soooooooooooo slow. If China, Russia or any enemy sailed a warship up the Chao Praya this experience has shown that the only way to confront them would be to get in the queue at the vodka, dim sum and knock shops when their on their R&R.

Thank-you so much for your reply. Luckily I didn't believe TCL Thailand Shopee chat who said "it's an import 240v; so 1400RPM is the correct spin speed." Buyer beware! That TCL machine is 1200RPM but you have to scroll down a fair way to find their 2nd advertised speed for the same machine. Deceptive. The Hisense I ordered is 1400RPM but the dryer capacity is 1KG less. Both very similar prices. The experience has put me off TCL now. Interesting to note that Big C online advertise it correctly at 1200RPM.- Washing Machine Spin Speed Vs Voltage in Thailand
So, I was going to buy a TCL washing machine/dryer (10Kg/7Kg) that was advertised as 1400RPM in Shopee Product Specifications but 1200RPM in their Product description. This confusion led me to a different (Hisense) brand /model (10Kg/6Kg). The Hisense is in transit. Pondering the discrepency has led me to voltage. I'm not an electrician so help is needed! Could it be that 1200RPM is at 220 volts but 1400RPM is at 240 volts? Puting my multimeter in my home socket it says 237 volts. Does this mean the spin speed of the TCL would be 1350+ RPM in my home? Thank-you in advance for any guidance.

They, and their families, must have been very grateful to have received assistance out of a war zone. I believe Cyprus has consulates, embassies and connecting transport links.- Thai Air Force Faces Challenges Repatriating Citizens from Conflict Zones in Israel
I haven't heard a whisper from Thai Airways. Nok Air and Air Asia are scheduled to help but not the national airline? The new government will be starting to get a complex about the lack of apparent urgency to help Thai nationals from both the military and the national airline.

Hungary managed 2 military flights last Sunday and a 3rd later that same day (3 flights/4 days ago). Reported here on AseanNow, yeserday.- Thai Air Force Faces Challenges Repatriating Citizens from Conflict Zones in Israel
I noted the news yesterday that Hungary managed 2 military flights last Sunday and a 3rd flight later that same day (3 flights/4 days ago). God forbid the Thai military ever need to participate in a conflict on the other side of the world. it would be over before they got there. Is this the "3rd way" of avoiding conflict?

The reports yesterday, and also spoken by the new Prime Minister of Thailand, were that Thai repatriation flights were not allowed access to Israeli airspace at that point in time. Perhaps things are different today? I still haven't read any reports though of any Thai airlifts of civilians or collection of dead bodies. Sadly, just reports of Israeli's coming on holiday to Thailand.- Tourist turmoil: Thailand grapples with 10,000 unexpected Israeli guests amid conflict aftermath
