  1. Most of us have either a work permit or Thai driver's license.
  2. ...if I was aware I was getting in a lift with a bunch of covid infected people... I'd get off the lift.
  3. Because, ya know... prohibition of stuff you don't like has worked so well in the past.
  4. I think you mean that the Thai government is only consistent in being inconsistent.
  5. Check your spam folder if you have not already. Last year I used an agent and then the online service successfully this time. It does seem to be hit and miss.
  6. BINGO! Since when before this crazy virus did any sane person wake up and say, "Hey, self... I feel pretty good today, I think I'll go get tested to see if I have the flu."? Before you get your panties all in a bunch, I understand that you may want to test yourself if you've been exposed and don't want to get granny who is living with you sick but this continual cry for more and more and more testing just to increase case numbers is lunacy. Fewer people are dying and fewer are in hospital relative to the number of actual cases. Those are the only important numbers now.
  7. So...IF I had a million dollars... would the best place to invest it really be in a visa so I can work? Why would I work if I had a million dollars? Please point me to anyone who falls for this. I have great deal on a bridge I can sell.
  8. Hello? Freaking New Zealand about stopped all travel in or out and still had a ton of cases. Political hacks.
  9. No one in Thai Immigration understands what a digital nomad really is and no one has any idea what is really needed and no one will ever take the time to find out.
  10. You really have to protect your local network from the wider internet as well.
  11. Sadly, few businesses or organizations of any size in Thailand take cyber security seriously.
  12. Shushssss... don't tell anyone that more than 20 of the worlds richest tech billionaires never graduated college let alone have masters degrees.
  13. Certainly the death of any child is a horror that no parent should endure and no caring parent would ever willing put their child at risk but 9 deaths out of about 10 million is very low.
  14. Don't worry boys this is only the first float. It'll all be different by the weekend.
  15. My wife and I had COVID back in June. I know because we had the test for the antibodies and they were positive. We just stayed home until we got better. We were not counted in the statistics. We are not the only ones. Thousands who had mild symptoms never got tested or counted. Many, maybe even the majority of those don't even realize they had COVID. Everyone is screaming for "more testing". How often should you test healthy people? Every day? Deaths, specifically excess deaths, numbers over and above the norm is the only useful metric. Positive test numbers are useless.
  16. Maybe if they wrote their ideas down first and read it back to themselves slowly. Nah... they'd still say it out loud.
