I want get back to you on that, because it does concern me a little. You asked a question 'have you have ever seen a computer hacked in person', and you are laughing out so loud if you get the answer. Watching too many movies. Only a small corporate with 1000 workstations compromised, is already 1000 hacked computers, bigger companies with 40k workstations, servers, private computers, half of them compromised and hacked, and how to get them up and running again, with backups and images, within 2, 3 days, that's a usual day for an IT Sec guy. I didn't count the exact numbers of hacked computers I've seen, but yeah, they are in the thousands. But that's business life ... behind me. We are here in Thailand, all far away from home, relying a lot on online banking, credit card purchases for plane tickets etc. I give you one example, maybe you might be able to relate to it. Kasikorn Bank Internet banking has only a username/pwd to log on to your account online. No 2 factor authentication. If that pwd is stored in your browser .... and your angry Thai girl gives this laptop to someone else and he get's has access to it. What about that? Is that a too paranoid thought? How many of you have 400k or 800k in an account here? Yeah, for a transfer you need SMS, so you better watch your phone. Simple things like that and a hundred other ones ... it's not fiction JaiLai.

I think there's one blogger/vlogger that was inspired to 'educate' others after his own personal matrimonial trainwreck... or maybe it was his alleged friend's misfortune? Either way, they're out there. I look at it this way. There's probably a handful of foreigners that have lost the house, shop, apartments, farm or whatever 'shared' landholding they had through marriage to a local. When they come up empty handed, they tend to slink off back home rather than stick around and draw the criticism and ridicule of fellow, holier-than-thou farangs who have cleverly avoided such happenstance through proxy ownership and other legally questionable constructs... and keeping their cock in their pants. It wasn't my house... I was renting it. I don't like to stay in one place for too long so I always rent. The rent was in her name and so the police didn't even allow me inside to get my things when it came to that stage the first time around, she had to go in and get them for me. We were not married, we were just BF and GF for 4 years, and the relationship turned sour over the last year, we grew apart and when I tried to end it this happened. I have most of my stuff back, living in a new place with a new girl, moved on and so it's all good. Although the baaaa ex is still trying to contact me, I feel she is holding onto my camera as a means to make me come back to her in some weird logic. I don't know. I did not pay for everything, in out relationship, I am not like that and I feel it's both disgusting and wrong. I'm 31, I paid for the rent, she paid for the some bills, sometimes food, gifts, blablabla. It was a pretty normal relationship.

Since you have writed before you paid for the rent and fire bill and she paid for the water bill it was a pretty normal classic unbalanced relationship thai\farang The urban legend stating young blokes do not pay, in a way or another, for ''love'' is definitively a joke. Anyway it's your business and the most important is you are comfortable with it.

Sometimes I think I just have to dumb myself down to a level where I just enjoy the coconut trees around me ???? I really need to start doing better about backing all of my content up. I lost some pics and vids of my mom the last ill ever have of her because i wasnt careful to make sure my files were backed. My mom passed away so its impossible to ever get any pics or vids with her again. I have started back up everything on both my notebook and external hdd but lately been lazy about it. On the back up aspect i also think its good to have files that are important and dont want to lose backed up on a few different places. That wat if something happes to one of 2 back ups you still have at keast 1 or 2 more back up locations to access your files from. I botnally back up to 2 different email accounts as well as at least 1 external hdd. Backing up is not just important for hacking or stolen but also good incase of a crash or corruption in the current storage location. As that alone could destroy all your saved data. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
