12 years in Phrae , until late 2019 we had to go to NAN immigration and no home visits . Now 3+ years Phrae immigration office with one home visit last year (or the year before , I forget). Nice folks . No changes at my renewal in sept 22 . Did he have to send the pictures to I.O. ? Or show them on his phone or camera ?

And I did find woke Bill Gates' only contribution to w11:

I've recently downgraded from WinXP to a new computer with W11, it is terrible and ugly. W11 is like a renovation of an old house , adding "new" things , that aren't new at all. A window is now a piece of white "paper" with some lines on and some text. Productivity is bad for me. It is a bloaded OS . I come from an 5400 rpm HD with 2GB of 667 Mhz DDR2 and a dual core CPU maxed out at 2,16 Ghz to an fast SSD , 16 GB 4800 Mhz DDR5 and 14 cores , and XP feels snappier than W11. At least it doesn't look as childish as W10 with those tiles. 12 years without updates in XP went great , now I have to keep an eye open for all the sh_tty updates. Privacy is terrible , so many settings to keep some privacy , and still a lot goes to microsoft .

So that is for recycling , not a sort of fixed deposit to turn them in so they get re-used by the beer company ? Like in europe you turn them in , get your money back or a token that you can use at the checkout of the supermarket . The place I stay at gives Singha water bottles and the empties go back and are re-used. You can clearly see that on the bottles , they are not new. If it is only to be recycled , what a waste and pretty expensive. Beer itself is already so expensive . In Aluminium cans even more expensive. Maybe switch to 1,5 liter plastic bottles like softdrinks .

These are heavy glass bottles from Singha , Leo and others. I never seen people with empties giving them back at the supermarket. So that is for a 600ml beer around 53 B , 10 B for the beer , 10 B for the glass to throw away ? And the rest is tax , transport and profit ? Thanks.

I do wonder about the cheap vitamins I buy on lazada . A good review means nothing . How can you review something without a lab test . Names on those hard/thick plastic bottles are easy to fake. How do you know your D3 , B12 , .... are working ?
