  1. If that means in cash it's a generous finder's reward. The elderly lady can be found on the internet, studied music in Moscow etc. I wouldn't love to be in Ulaanbaatar at the time. Down to -30 C (-22 F).
  2. It's possible. I did it in 2022 to cancel my Non O-A visa status and restart with a regular Non-O. Did this with a border run to Nong Khai/Vientiane. Completely smooth and no issues. The "visa" from immigration office is somewhat special as it is "used" on same day as it is issued and you are given 90 days permission to stay as if entered with a Non-O. There is an under consideration period after applying for the visa. So in total three visits to immigration to finally get the one year stamp.
  3. That was "officially" in the news even here. Too lazy to look up but quite sure from some tourism official. And exactly not up country but as a circus to attract tourists. Will they arrange water splashing/techno jumping events for tourists in the usual hotspots
  4. What do you use for internet phone calls? Skype? Or what?
  5. My very first idea when I read the OP. The confusion of the era. 5G mobile and 5 GHz WiFi frequency. Same with the "bars". Could be indicator for mobile/cellular signal strength or indicator for WiFi signal strength. To me the problem sounds much like selecting one of the two WiFi frequencies. As most devices nowadays my router does 2.4 GHz and 5 Ghz WiFi. Most always I connect the mobile phone to 2.4 GHz. Fast enough for everything on the phone. The 5 GHz signal suffers from just a window and a wall in between.
  6. Yes and particularly sponsor Diesel and make bulky heavy Diesel pickups cheaper than a midsize eco car. Just continue with the the large army of huge sugar cane trucks (trailers) which throw big black smoke, make terrible noise. For some I am not sure: pre or post WWII? Still allow a joke of a vehicle inspection. Many vehicles would be rejected after 5 min of visual inspection in strict countries. And of course still do not sanction/penalize sugar cane burning. Might have been reduced but still. (only one day with black snow this year). Burning trash is a national custom. Some mornings I go out and the air is foggy and stinks from all the fires.
  7. At KK you won't make it to the desk of the IO before passing the document check at the entrance. One to two officers and two interns just do that. Only after that you will receive a queue number.
  8. What is seen in the article is not a hammer but a full blown pick-axe.
  9. The nonsense proposal has been buried quickly. That's what I know. The official three day holiday (13, 14, 15) starts on a Saturday this year. Wouldn't be surprised if there is more than the announced April 16th (Tuesday) substitute. Local rules / festivals and bank vs government holidays is a science of its own. Well known Pattaya late party on 19(?). Bangkok exodus and traffic night mare at least from 12 to 17.
  10. Guess the victim had some money on him.
  11. What a luck for me that only the thread is in Isaan (forum) and not the mentioned provinces
  12. Books have become rare. There are some in English but unlikely on Lazada. What were you using before? There is a multitude of online videos/tutorials about changing to W11. Also lengthy videos for complete newbies. Search for: "Windows 11 tutorial", "...for beginners", "...for seniors" etc. pp.
  13. A regular/habitual drinker, alcohol addict, can still walk to the car and drive away. Think you haven't read too many of these stories. The current and only legal limit for bicycle(!) riders in Germany is 0.16. Only from there considered completely incapable.
  14. Yes, brilliant weather. Nothing to complain. And the forecast from misc weather centers show this amount of precipitation for our region:
  15. No idea what you refer too
  16. Picture from 3rd of July 2022 taken within 4 minutes (roads empty ). Damini 6 Satang better than TT for EUR to THB. Currency market (middle) rate on the day about 37.08.
  17. Can't tell about the Baht to Euro change but for the usual Euro to Baht change the differences are very marginal. Damini like 3 to 5 Satang (0.03/0.04) better than TT.
  18. Mysterious things happen in the forum. Two decade old threads woken up, Non posters from 2015 request name change Next stop 2032.
  19. Those sidecars are highly dangerous. Made in backyard workshops. Sidecar no break, no lights and 95% not even some reflector/luminous strips. Very hard to detect in the dark. Should neither be allowed in the dark nor on major roads and of course not for kids. Some chance it was a "hit and run" thing. Car saw them too late, honked or passed very close.
  20. Better call Annalena, green head of German foreign office. She will add him to the 1 million+ Ukrainians in Germany. 65% of the main state welfare scheme beneficiaries are Ukrainian. Some went for Christmas holiday in their country. Poland was not amused and blocked their entry.
  21. Have you tried Brave browser? Still worked fine. Try before yt cracks them.
  22. Out of curiosity: does someone have a can at hand and can check the label. I guess it is produced in Selangor/Malaysia. The fairly cheap prices at the online stores let me think so.
  23. Good point. Now I remember the case where my wife was not able to do calls. So they follow the rule NOT to cash in the credit.
