The question is about broadcasting videos filmed in public. My opinion on this narrow issue is : 1- it should be legal to video anything happening in a place legally accessible to the public 2- if some people who are filmed during their private or covert time/activity become aware of it, they should have the right to request to be made unrecognizable in any broadcast 3- people shooting videos of other people while these are on their private or covert time should be required to provide ID on the request of any people they filmed private time means not "obviously" working, not wearing a uniform, not exercising any official or public office/duty/capacity at the moment the video is made. This means - plain clothes police officers openly wearing their badge at the belt or on their jacket's front pocket can be filmed and can't request to be made unrecognizable. - workers wearing a uniform outside of their workplace or not wearing a uniform but obviously working in a place visible from a public place can be filmed and can't request to be made unrecognizable. - other people can request to be made unrecognizable and can request the ID of the photographer/videographer this is not how laws are now, it's just my opinion on how things should be. of course, there are other legal interests playing into it as well, for example public interest or whistleblowing / crime reporting, public figures, etc.

not so fast, enforcing laws is not the only role of police. one important role of police is "maintaining the peace". so the police has to intervene when controversies come up. that's what they have been doing here.

the article is very misleading. indeed it's about "best retirement by country" but it pertains only to people who are already in that country's system (most require a residency permit and one won't benefit from the social welfare if an immigrant), and also it's more about low income retirement. the question answered by the article is "in which country can retirees of that country afford to live in a small apartment and be able to afford good healthcare and decent food on their low pension".

one has to wonder at the Republican's Party lineup of candidates. They provided no real alternatives for voters that share a good part of Trump's political beliefs but would prefer someone else to vote for.

yeah, he can stop talking now that he gave all the necessary explanations.

555 minecraft doesn't look like much, but is actually a huge resource hog for which near-top-of-the-line hardware is recommended, for example a decent mid-range i5 and a 3080 GPU.

obviously importing one is an option. and what's wrong with these ? https://www.lazada.co.th/products/2023-bmax-b6-series-mini-pc-windows11-cpu-gen10-intel-core-i3-i5-i7-gpu-iris-xe-plus-graphic-ram-16gb-ddr4-ssd-1tb-nvme-1-i4657102644.html?spm=a2o4m.searchlist.list.1.5e4f62b8YmdDD5 https://www.lazada.co.th/products/new-2024-bmax-b4-mini-pc-intel-12th-gen-n95-ram-16gb-ssd-512gb-windows-11-1-i3346863493.html?spm=a2o4m.searchlist.list.5.598562b83jGbx2 JIB also has them https://www.jib.co.th/web/product/product_list/2/1496

I second this. They fix any usual hardware defect within 24h for 3500 baht.

you assume your battery is fully charged. but disaster strikes unannounced. most people won't have a solar home to charge their EV without a grid. of course I can see the advantages of solar home + EV, I guess I would go that route myself. but EV without solar home, that's the question I was looking at. regarding the discussion about Kwh, 1 liter of diesel has 12.7 Kwh in theory, and the diesel engine is highly efficient at around 40-45%, so that would net about 5Kwh per liter. 5 Kwh x 60 (assuming full tank) = 300 Kwh, again, in theory, I'm unsure how much gets lost in the car's electric plant. one thing about diesel though, it's that it can be stocked.

I added the power outlet. Idling actually has surprisingly high fuel consumption compared to driving. My expectation for the 2.2 ctdi engine would be around 1 - 1.2 liters per hour, so it could idle for at least 50 hours on a full tank. But the engine will adapt its power output to the amount of power taken from the outlet, so the RPM will go up if more ampere are drawn. The most sensible thing to do would be to use the engine only when needed.

they won't last long as a power source. my 2005 Honda has a 230V power outlet.

indeed! now why didn't these turn up in my search ?

I'm bored with a headache. I attached the reason why I'm posting (first picture). And maybe yes, you can show me all offers below 1000 baht for WD BLUE 1TB SATA SSD on Lazada or Shopee. I did two searches already. On Laz, all these 1099 baht offers are for 250GB. 1TB is around 2000 baht. a normal price.

Only one for 999 THB and "no warranty" https://www.lazada.co.th/products/pc-accessories-500gb-1tb-ssd-sd-wd-blue-sata-wds500g2b0a-3d-nand-i4735693063-s19531283727.html? hahaha they mostly use the product options trick to display the price of smaller units when you search for 1TB, get the price for 500GB or 250GB. on shopee they all have normal prices, and the rest of lazada was in line with expectations as well.

the problem is, they can't rely on you to provide "evidence". they would have to read out the serial number themselves, they can't just accept screenshots or whatever customers would send them, otherwise any shop could be knocked off any platform by competitors submitting false reports. and regarding "usual prices", a platform can't be expected to know which price products should sell at. maybe the WD blue SSD has a SATA interface and the shop wants to get rid of its last 3 ? it's not the place of a platform to meddle in commercial offers of what could very well be 1 million different products.

so you mean every seller would have to send their RAM modules to the platform so the platform can read out the serial number from the chip and then check it against the brand's lists ? the problem lies in how the information can be reliably collected.

it's an open secret that many factories subcontracting for brand names produce more of the stuff than their customers will buy and will re-sell their production under a different name, but the product is the same. the quality is a crapshoot though, because these moonlight products won't have the same quality control, and might even contain rejects.

as far as RAM is concerned, once a memtest has been run without errors, it's pretty much safe to assume that the RAM won't have any problems in future, I only once had a case where a RAM module "became bad". there are several programs to test RAM, serious tests can run for several hours. it's not really relevant which chips are used, the important thing is if they perform at the required spec: frequency, voltage, bandwidth

neither you telling them nor customer reviews are evidence. it would take significant time and effort for these platforms to establish these claims. then they do what ? exclude one or a handful of sellers ? how many new sellers do you think could register on the platform in the meanwhile ? and how would the platform benefit from excluding these sellers ? it's just a non-starter. no, you won't find brand name RAM at a fraction of the price. just order from JIB or invadeit if you want brand name..

a nice demonstration of what I wrote earlier, that electric vehicles won't be operational in case of emergencies. but I should have added "abnormal conditions". EV work when everything is normal. normal weather, normal society, normal schedule.

BTW, you most probably didn't receive anything from "the usual suspects". You received the wares from merchants advertising their business on the usual suspects' platforms.

no

now if you would explain the danger ...

Considering risk and scale of damage to the Western world : Trump. Closely followed by Xi and Putin.

you will find that these modules are even cheaper when they are not used to counterfeit brand products. just the regular no-name ram modules. you say half the price, maybe you could have them for 30% of the brand name price. run a memtest for your specs and you are good to go.
