Smart Home automations - anybody using?
Yes, I saw this on YouTube. its pretty cool, the sensor is still quite expensive from what I remember. You don't need to own a 3D printer to use esphome, but I'm sure you would find it useful. I have a broken down ender 3, it does the job well now. I use it all the time, for instance, I want to put my construction laser level on a light stand as I'm putting up shelving all over the place - I need a 1/4" to 5/8" - I could order one from amazon, maybe take 10 days, an a few $, the shipping probably costs more than the item or print one https://www.printables.com/model/171219-tripod-adapter-14-20-fm-to-58-11-stud in an hour. -

Lol, post evidence for your lies, why don't you? I have not once in my life posted "sleazy allegations about alleged sex acts" by Kamala Harris. You're obviously prone to mistake posters' identity. I am intrigued now though, what did she do? -

Commerce minister plea: Time to cut the baht and boost the rates
Commerce Minister Pichai Naripthaphan called on the Bank of Thailand (BoT) to slash interest rates and stabilise the baht in a bid to boost exports and prop up GDP. In a policy statement issued today, Pichai slammed the current strength of the baht, which he claims is hitting exports hard. With export growth expected to be sluggish this year, he’s calling on the central bank to step in and tackle the currency’s soaring value. Today, the baht hit 33 per US dollar, its highest level in more than 18 months. In the past month alone, it has surged by 5-6%. This stronger baht is squeezing exporters, particularly those dealing in agricultural goods and eating into their profit margins. Pichai also emphasised the urgent need for the central bank to reduce interest rates to improve liquidity and make funding more accessible. “Monetary policy is more crucial than fiscal policy as the Bank of Thailand sets interest rate policy and influences the exchange rate, which impacts exports—currently making up 60% of GDP. “Beyond its regulatory role, the Bank of Thailand should also support the continuity of economic activities during crises.” The Commerce Ministry intends to further deliberate on this issue shortly. Last year’s economic expansion was 1.9%, a period during which wealth and income became more concentrated among the wealthy, while the poorer segments faced increased financial distress, resulting in higher household debt. The ministry has promised to introduce new stimulus measures to revive the economy. Pichai is expected to continue the policies of his predecessor, Phumtham Wechayachai. These policies include reducing expenses, increasing income, expanding opportunities, and balancing the needs of citizens, consumers, agricultural producers, and business operators to ensure collective benefit. These policies aim to proactively integrate efforts between provincial commerce offices and trade ambassadors to enhance the competitiveness of Thai products in the global market. They also involve amending laws and regulations to adapt to the evolving global trade landscape, driving grassroots economic policy, accelerating export growth by restructuring the export sector to respond to new S-curve industries, promoting the use of free trade agreements, and supporting both inbound and outbound investment, reported Bangkok Post. by Bob Scott Picture courtesy of the Bank of Thailand Source: The Thaiger -- 2024-09-17 -

Has nothing to do with the government or new government, it has everything to do with the board members of narcotic control and Anutin. No good news or changes happened so far at all, it is just that they stopped the plan so far to criminalize it again. Regulation yet has to follow too and likely just cancels out most small SME owners to then have the elite own 90% of it. -

What is the best way to watch old movies at home in Thailand?
Yes, that's what I do mostly until now. But like I said, I would be willing to pay, if there is a good service available which makes it easy to just click and watch. -

Anyone taking Mounjaro?
Any BM's taking this medication? Last night I was talking to my daughter back in the UK. She is a Urology Dr. in a hospital there. She was telling me that a consultant she works with has been taking Mounjaro weigh loss drug for six months. Apparently it has almost miraculous benefits. He was BMI over 30, onset diabetes, high blood pressure and high cholesterol. Six months later and all resolved - life-changing in fact....... She reckons huge numbers of people will soon be taking it. Apparently the drug itself is cheap (like GBP5.00 for a month's supply) but the injector pens are costly to make, pushing the price (in UK) to well over GBP100.00 for a month. I don't need this medication at the moment because my BMI is just about in normal range and I am not diabetic or HBP, but nice to know its available.
