  1. I've owned lots of speakers. None of them except subwoofers required them to be plugged into the mains. You need an amplifier to take the output from your computer, up the output, and feed the speakers. Or just use headphones.
  2. VPNs have a pool of IP addresses at each server from which they supply addresses to users. The service providers (BBC,banks,etc) figure out the addresses in the pool and block them all. Changing servers can sometimes alleviate this as the new IP may be in a pool that is not yet blocked. I had this issue when I signed up with torguard. When I went to cancel, they provided me a fixed IP, not in the pools, that is only mine. No blocking, and never will. This is normally an extra service with additional fees, but they waived the fees. Not bad for $60 for 3 years all in, with guaranteed renewal at the same price in 3 years. Unlike Nord, which I previously had where the renewal is at full price.
  3. Like they are in Canada and the US at least? Check recent news about Chinese police stations there...
  4. What could go wrong? https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa/rcmp-chinese-police-stations-1.6862336 The RCMP says it has "shut down illegal police activity in Ontario, Quebec and British Columbia" connected to so-called Chinese "police stations" — but it hasn't said whether it has made any arrests. In April, Public Safety Minister Marco Mendicino told a parliamentary committee the federal police service had taken decisive action to close down the alleged stations.
  5. No. Banning incompetent pedestrians.
  6. I don't have kids anywhere. Why would you want one? But that's a whole different topic, so back to this one... It's called survival of the fittest. If you're not smart enough to cross the road on your own, you shouldn't be allowed to procreate. If you did have offspring and they died like that, it's on you for not teaching them better.
  7. Thailand: yes Philippines: yes Cambodia: yes Laos: yes Myanmar: yes Indonesia: yes Malaysia: yes It's pretty simple. You feel the symptoms coming on, then treat yourself to the current treatment. HIV is difficult for a male to catch in a heterosexual interaction. I do get myself tested every 6 months or so. I do know a few who caught it. They were sharing needles.
  8. People that can't cross the road without lights shouldn't be allowed out in public, in Thailand at least. If you want that level of enforcement then go back to your home country.
  9. Does he speak Russian? If so, then according to Czar Putin, he is, by definition, Russian.
  10. New sci-fi drama mystery series Beacon 23 has dropped the first 2 of 8 episodes from season 1. Season 2 is already scheduled. Lena Headey from GOT and Sarah Connor Chronicles. Production quality is high. Watched episode 1 and it looks promising. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt9174724
  11. Come on, tell us the whole story. What is your neighbor doing that you don't want to hear?
  12. Same with Alexa or Siri. Everything heard by the microphone is sent to the servers for “processing“...
  13. Sorry. I don't have that much time...
  14. You imply there is only one. My count has it around 6.
  15. That's not British food. It's Indian. Just because it's now very popular in Britain doesn't mean it's now British. The popularity of Indian food there is due to the low quality local cuisine offered. I postulate that if the Thais had been in Britain before the Indians, Thai food would be the #1 food there.
  16. Good for you. You found one.
  17. Go to Kampot. Check out the local pepper. Best in the world. They used to have a suicide assistance guest house there too in case you're interested. Snooky is a waste of time since the Chinese took the place over.
  18. You want that stuff? Then go watch it on channel 32. No need to see it here.
  19. Better to say Prick...
  20. Kind of hard to vote for recommended candidates, especially since I have blocked many of them due to the useless drivel in their posts.
  21. Can I do negative votes?
  22. If the tourist was British the tourist police would have gotten the phone back by now... https://aseannow.com/topic/1311731-pattaya-tourist-police-help-retrieve-british-tourist’s-lost-phone/?do=getNewComment
  23. The 650mb 480p repack is available and flawless.
