  1. What did you used to do if I may ask?
  2. 1 to 1.5% in the entire population of people getting cataract surgery. However I've got extreme myopia (over -10 diopter) and I've been told by ophthalmologists that I have tissue thin retinas. So, I am very concerned about retinal detachment.
  3. Save the Children Thailand has issued an urgent plea for action after revealing that one in three child deaths in Thailand are caused by road accidents. Over the past decade, more than 26,930 children have tragically died in road crashes, highlighting the severity of the problem. And ya'll have just figured that out now. The roads are a horror show primary because most Thais don't have any driving skills that you'd normally find in Western nations.
  4. Does anyone use a USB Webcam that they can recommend for use on a desktop system? You know, the type that clips onto your monitor so you can do things like Zoom calls and Skype.
  5. If you are a US Citizen voting In the Chiang Mai Region you can drop your ballot off at the Chiang Mai US Embassy (Consulate). The ballot drop-off box is outside the main door where the guard stands.
  6. Does anyone know what the price for a cataract surgery with a simple monofocal IOL at Chiang Mai Ram and Sripat?
  7. He looks like Pepe The Frog. Not a good look for the VP candidate. He looks like he's about to zap a fly out of the air with his tongue. Excellent meme material tho'! 🐸 🪰
  8. They should just give the three southern-most provinces to Malaysia and call it good.
  9. Same, so you make investment. But honestly, I don't even trust that the financial system will go bust and those investments will be around in the long-run. So...exactly.
  10. Well of course. And mRNA Covid shots will keep you from getting Covid, Unicorn really exist, and the Earth is actually flat.
  11. So, by his own admission Waltz is "friends with school shooters." Nice IMG_9319.MP4
  12. However, they should have laws that prosecute anyone who flees from a fatality accident if they were driving. Thai culture seems to inculcate that running and hiding is what you do after an accident. Cowards.
  13. I see they are going to throw the driver under the bus. They should do a detailed investigation of that bus' maintenance records. Careening into a guardrail shouldn't ignite a conflagration.
  14. Anything that adversely impacts the Thai alcohol monopoly will not be allowed.
  15. I've seen bald tires on these kinds of buses before. It will be interesting to hear what they find in forensics if they ever release that info to the public.
  16. It's not the end of the world. My pension isn't linked to inflation. I get the same amount as I got when I retired in 2007. You plan and make do.
  17. I find it interesting that it's crickets here on AN regarding the ballistic missile bombardment of Israel last night. Interesting. ICYMI video_2024-10-02_00-36-03.mp4 video_2024-10-02_00-32-25.mp4 video_2024-10-02_00-29-40.mp4
  18. What I find interesting is the price of gold isn't moving in synch with global prices, which tell me that the USD is actually very weak although the THB is definitely strengthening.
  19. How much do you want to bet that there was no fire extinguisher onboard? TIT.
  20. Yeah, we deal with cobras a few times each year. However we have the house pretty well sealed and a bunch of dogs around the perimeter. They usually alert us to snake presence. Then I break out the snake catcher and relocate them. Next door neighbor has had cobras in their house twice. Scary.
  21. Just buy a mult-B vitamin. I use Nat B which you can find in any pharmacy. It contains 50 mg of nicotinamide which is a form of vitamin B3 which doesn't cause flushing along with 50 mg of a bunch of other B vitamins.
  22. I don't know why you're taking high dosages of niacin. 50 mg is enough to make a person uncomfortably flushed. If you want B vitamins, just buy a good multi-B vitamin. You need less than 20 mg a day.
