  1. So many options for a proper word processor which can open rtf files...
  2. Belarus? Is that in another report?
  3. No. With a >legit< Kazakhstan passport they could even enter visa exempt for 60 days. Visa for Afghans very difficult. Has to go through Thai foreign department and can take up to two months (according to website). Even when going through transit their passports will be checked, don't you think so?
  4. Cars driving by? What time did this happen? Early evening?
  5. I am happy they don't have that facial scan. At Bangkok Bank that's a damned mess. Often had to give up in frustration. I can use both SCB and Kbank without doing grimaces. For bigger transactions at Bangkok Bank I have to use web site and OTP.
  6. I would rather ruin tire and rim before stopping on the right lane of an overpass (where there is no space to get off the road).
  7. No one ever stated that a TEMPORARY license ends on your birthday. Two years and that's it. December >2026<? And why didn't you get a regular 5 year license as is usual after the temporary? That's the real topic. What's your visa/extension status?
  8. 1 AM is the time these "after show" clubs start. They are frequented by young Thais and from hearsay the working girls from the gogos start the real fun with their Thai boyfriends. One club off 3rd with open front stopped after sunrise. I could watch it from the hotel balcony. Terrible noise covering the neighbour hood. How mighty must the operators be that nothing is done? Driving along Khopai Rd off South Pattaya Rd I repeatedly watch a club operating after 8 AM.
  9. Good insight. Most servers can't and won't deliver unlimited speeds. You are not alone on the net so load balancing limits. The fastest ever seen was about 800 Mbit/s for an installation media download from Microsoft. Obviously mirrored/cached in Thailand. Fast Downloads that I see are about 300 Mbit/s. For most interactive use like streaming/video watching speeds above 50 are irrelevant anyway.
  10. Written like it's an all new motorway. Guess it's an extension/branch? of the existing M9 ringroad. If construction is as slow as the notorious M6 then I will not live long enough to experience.
  11. The stairs shine in the sun. Looks bloody slippery. As so often appearance before security. In our house the stairs are also quite slippery/shiny surface. I bought some antislip tape and of course have wooden handrails.
  12. I should start a logbook and stopwatch the minutes I spent waiting for the dimwits to get their payment organized. Sometimes giving up and look for another checkout
  13. Khon Kaen province is quite big. Any details or reference to original report where that happened?
  14. EVA to LHR and BA to GLW not too bad and even a bit cheaper than Emirates in Economy. Total travel time 16:45 and 16:00. Terminal change at LHR but layover is more than 2 hours. I did a search on arbitrary dates (May 7 to June 4). Not used Skyscanner but Matrix Airfare search. https://matrix.itasoftware.com/search
  15. Derek still alive? 😖
  16. Spent minutes to find out about this new place 🫣
  17. Offices in Bangkok and surrounding areas: https://consular.mfa.go.th/th/page/21037-สถานที่ให้บริการหนังสือเดินทาง?menu=5f34ed0fd68bca0d54302fe5
  18. Link times out.... Leave out the www: https://www.qpassport.in.th/#/landing This is a site for online appointment. You can even switch to English Give this to your partner to read: https://consular.mfa.go.th/th/page/21037-สถานที่ให้บริการหนังสือเดินทาง?menu=5f34ed0fd68bca0d54302fe5 As far as I know (quite sure) Thai people are free to choose which office they want to visit.
  19. Just tried an arbitrary US VPN address provided by NordVPN. No reports. You hesitate to name your VPN provider? For serious stuff from my last/home country I spent the extra money for a dedicated IP address (my address for two years). No reports.
  20. I have some doubt about the relevance of this abuse website. My dynamic 3BB fixed line address has two entries from 2022 and 2021. Both based on reports by some website/forum operator. For a VPN it is crystal clear that you will get an IP address that is/has been shared by many. I tried some other blacklist check (https://whatismyipaddress.com/blacklist-check ). This lists the results of 60(!) blacklist checking sites and I get 60 green marks.
  21. Which will collapse first? Pattaya or Phuket
  22. Another thread on this (new) trend? Oh no! Some simply call it the worlds oldest business!
  23. At our Makro since years after they had the smaller size before. But for us too big. Takes long to use up. There have been some discounts at other shops for the smaller size. Hope it's not a clearance sale. Makro offers 500gr of Kellogs Corn Flakes for 76 Baht! Price skyrocketed to 145 at other shops. Nice but suspicious. Bet it will be gone.
