https://aseannow.com/rss/44-thailand-news.xml/National and regional news from all around ThailandenAlthough the local media likes to publicize mostly petty crimes like this that happen in Pattaya, Bangkok, and Phuket, the reality is that these Thai tourist cities are actually safer than most western tourist places--and not just for petty crimes but for violent crimes, as well. Per Google: No, Bangkok, Phuket, and Pattaya do not have more petty crime than other major tourist cities across the globe. In fact, these Thai hubs consistently track much lower for violent crime, physical muggings, and aggressive theft than major urban destinations in Western Europe, the Americas, or parts of Africa.Fri, 26 Jun 2026 00:55:01 +0000There's hope for me yet then.....................

By using the recover storage option I now have only 3.7GB of photos. And as I don't add any new ones it will not increase." I haven't done, a bit side tracked on other things. I am trying to understand what is going on. I noticed looking at the Apps Gallery is only 678 MB. I find that very hard to believe. Photos is 3.85 GB. I therefore assume that each back up is cumulative and doesn't overwrite previous back ups. Photos is the Google App so assume it is that app being backed up. I am still trying to understand why have switched off the back ups that I could find, back ups are still taking place. Having cleared a load out is grew to 15 GB again. I have done a complete back up of pictures to the computer. Thinking of doing another clean back up then deleting the Gallery and Photo apps and re-installing. I can't quite get my head round the recover function? Is the back up a single back up with previous back ups deleted or cumulative. If I recover does it recover the most recent or all of them. Does recovering empty the Google back up? Just trying to avoid making the situation worse. I am also thinking of just ditching the gmail email account and migrating to an outlook account if Google are going to threaten to block sending and receiving emails. Of course that means changing every registration I have to OutlookFri, 26 Jun 2026 00:42:42 +0000Yeah, sorry it's weird. If people keep going back to Pattaya, we know why they're there. But continually coming back to Thailand every year and exploring every corner of the country is weird. There are so many other countries to travel to.Fri, 26 Jun 2026 00:42:11 +0000I think the reason why public holidays might affect the speed of payments is because they could impede on the inflow of funds into the local agencies. Wise is a 2 way street. They pay us remitters out of funds received from business's sending payments the other way for goods and services. Slow input results in slow output.Fri, 26 Jun 2026 00:40:30 +0000We need more cross breeding to breed out the bad genes.

Leading me to wonder whether they are being paid to endorse the clinic. Kardashian was one of the names. I'd bet on paid influencing... Or maybe they can get treatments that are illegal in Hollywood? Edit: BTW, my initial suspicion was that the Demis clinic was named after Demi Moore. But that doesn't seem to be the case... At least, I didn't find any indication of that. But I didn't go very far down the rabbit hole.Fri, 26 Jun 2026 00:37:42 +0000Never seen Biden on a poop protector.Fri, 26 Jun 2026 00:37:07 +0000HAMAS needs to be destroyed, they are a bunch of crack heads.Fri, 26 Jun 2026 00:36:51 +0000No. I have a 40,000 baht deductible. I haven't had any serious illnesses. I have read comments from others that PC did pay their claims. My experience reading comments about insurance company recommendations is that you will always find people who love or hate a particular company.Fri, 26 Jun 2026 00:36:10 +0000Thailand must be the global capital for falling from high floors.....!Fri, 26 Jun 2026 00:36:03 +0000Stick mostly to ground beef. Otherwise, you need to fork out $$ for good cuts of beef. OR ... stew cheap cuts for hours if you have the patience. Chicken is fine. Not sure about pork, don't eat much pork.Fri, 26 Jun 2026 00:34:34 +0000I admit, I do find the discussion confusing and hard to follow at times .Fri, 26 Jun 2026 00:34:08 +0000My right hand.....my left.Fri, 26 Jun 2026 00:33:22 +0000Any of you installed a dashcam like below in the SL7 since the SL7 does not come with a dashcam from the factory although the SL7 does contain factory dashcam wiring.. I realize the installation is pretty easy from several youtubes I've watched. Any recommendations on dashcams?

Why don't Hamas do that then ?" We all know how that ended.Fri, 26 Jun 2026 00:29:59 +0000Fri, 26 Jun 2026 00:29:52 +0000
