  1. My hole in one history is rather crazy. I have been playing for over 35 years. I shot TWO hole in one during the same year in 2007, 2 months apart, on 2 different par 3 of the same course, both during a competitive event.
  2. I have bad news for you: https://www.express.co.uk/life-style/health/211721/Cures-we-discovered-by-chance And there is also off label use: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Off-label_use
  3. judging by what the 5 first countries are, I would guess the other countries are: South Korea, Japan, Taiwan, Switzerland, France, Italy, Canada, Australia, and maybe Sweden. That's 5. Well, the prime minister says it's 5 under the emergency decree.
  4. "low risk" countries... what is meant with "low risk" ? apparently, the list includes the UK, Singapore, USA... the UK has a number of 40k new cases a day and rising the USA about 90k Singapore is in the middle of its worst outbreak with 3000 cases a day which is a lot considering the size of the country so what is meant with "low risk" ??
  5. test the charger to see if it delivers the necessary voltage. if not, there are repair shops which can fix the laptop.
  6. yes, I do the same: half a tablet in the evening and I sleep easily for 7 hours. the short half time makes it the best sleeping pill for me, I didn't experience such side effects as the other posters.
  7. I wonder if anyone took the time to analyze if some people or some companies were missing in these papers... could be a hint as to who leaked it.
  8. I had a couple of Dell PowerEdge blades, they didn't have any kind of fan control.
  9. I planned something similar in the past. The fans are loud because of heat, especially here in Thailand. A couple of 1U or 2U rackservers will never be quiet enough to be put into a room with people, because of the noise small fans make. With a closed cabinet, the next problem is heat - so aircon is needed. I know there are cabinets with integrated aircon, but what about redundancy? Also, will there be service available in Thailand? My best resolution for my needs was to put the servers into a small soundproof room with 2 dedicated standard wall-mounted aircons.
  10. it would be interesting to read a translation of the court's ruling
  11. I'm looking for a new office chair. There are quite a few offers on Lazada, some look incredibly cheap for the features offered, but as it looks too good to be true, I'd like to ask the forum if anyone has experience with these cheapish office chairs for 1000 - 2500 baht. Some examples: https://www.lazada.co.th/products/hz-shop-y-type-i676790474-s7388658859.html https://www.lazada.co.th/products/hz-shop-y-type-i676790474-s7388658859.html https://www.lazada.co.th/products/furinbox-i1123344654-s2585072319.html https://www.lazada.co.th/products/erland-modern-style-chair-i2489697602-s8782839414.html features I am looking for include: - tiltable back rest with lock - tiltable seat with lock - adjustable height (of course) - armrests made from plastic - all chair covers made from mesh/fabric (I don't care about head rest or leg rest) Index Living Mall: https://www.indexlivingmall.com/110032248.html not in stock in Pattaya, so no way to try it first, but I'd be happy to read your comments if you have this chair still Index Living Mall: https://www.indexlivingmall.com/370000001.html this one is "Furinbox Cooper", but seems to be available at other places too eager to read about your experiences with cheap office chair - can any be recommended?
  12. Although I manage internet marketing campaigns in Europe, I have never done that in Thailand. I'd like to ask for information about common prices for clicks on Google Ads and Facebook/Instagram ads in Thailand. Can some members provide some information based on their experience please?
  13. Many golfers in Thailand face high per-round costs at their usual courses, while courses with flat yearly membership fees and no additional compulsory cost per round are very rare. Let's put legal aspects aside and think about how many of us would be ready to acquire a membership in such a golf course and for how much. Project cornerstones: - conveniently located at a similar distance from the city as other nearest courses (for Pattaya this would mean within the arc between Burapha/Laem Chabang and Cheechan, following route 331 - other locations in Thailand use your imagination) - minimum 18 holes championship course, not a cheap setup, a good course with good maintenance - optional carts and optional caddies, no per-round fee for members - memberships are perpetual, meaning they don't expire. when the membership holder dies, the membership is inherited - club policies/management priorities/investments set yearly by the member's general assembly Proposed main fee structure for members (theoretically the course should be able to run on minimal maintenance with these fees): - initial memberships fee for fund setup - yearly maintenance fee for members So the question here is not about project costs or feasibility, the question is about how much would a resident golfer in Thailand be ready to pay for a membership ? As an additional question, if you have knowledge about golf course economics in Thailand, could you please comment on costs of building an 18-hole course (without cutting corners), land costs and maintenance costs in Thailand ? Yes, I realize the land cost is very location dependent, but a few ballpark figures would be useful to put things in perspective.
  14. because of Covid I have run out of Zolpidem (Brand name Stilnox / Ambien), which is a fast-acting and very short duration sleeping pill. I have a prescription for Zolpidem, but I can't find a place that dispenses it - does anyone know where in the Pattaya area I could go? Would the newish government hospital on soi Buakhow be worth a try?
