Facebook minimum age?
I was thinking that Facebook had a minimum age to be allowed to post. Apparently not. https://www.facebook.com/groups/696675895069666 -

Honest Question: How is Trump a 'threat to Democracy'?
Who wants rubles, yuan and rupees? The real store of value IMO is gold and silver. -

Thai Khmer - is it alive anywhere in South Isaan?
Yeah, but I will still call them cities, as only you and maybe one more opposed that. Means you are in minority. Do you know what you do with minority? You squeeze it like a bug. -

No phone app and no computer access allowed with Kasikorn Bank?
Hmm, I know this is a thread from Jan 2023 but if anyone sees this it might help. The issue with Kasikorn and BKK Bank apps (and other Thai apps that are "missing") is that for some reason they directly do not allow Google accounts set outside of Thailand to download the app. There is of course a way around that, you COULD change your region to Thailand but that might prevent you from using apps back home and it can only be changed once a year Other one, very easy with an Android phone. You can download the .apk (installer file) from a third party website and just install it directly (sideload). I am sure this is somehow possible with Apple phones but I don't use them so .. The first time I was at BKK bank she asked me directly if my phone account was outside Thailand, I said yes and she said "oh then can not!" and continued the paperwork nonsense. Within about 3-4 minutes, I had went on Google and found their app on apkmirror (I think it was, was 13 years ago), downloaded it and sideloaded it. Showed it to her saying "This app?" and she was very surprised. Works perfectly fine, usually does not update by itself. K Plus was the same (and PEA Smart Plus also) Might be worth saying that if you have a two sim cards in your phone, you must be connected to the internet on mobile on the sim card that is with your phone number registered with the bank. I have my old number from a decade and a half ago that I use for incoming calls (but nothing else) and had to get a 2nd SIM for some promotion from DTAC/3BB that gives me 20GB a month of mobile data and it will not activate for Kasikorn OR Bangkok Bank with that one. So every time I change phone, factory reset or reinstall the app I must put some money on my prepaid number just so i can get a package to use internet on it.. and it's only for the first "activation" which is stupid since they use SMS 2FA anyways. Sometimes I even have to remove the other sim card completely just to complete their stupid verification. -

Cheapo Funeral......where, and how much.
Thanks for your interest, but your interpretation of the circumstances is so completely off base as to be highly amusing! Sherlock Holmes you are not! -

Parents Protest Govt's Move to Legalise Gambling, Save Youth File photo for reference only In a bold move today, a coalition of concerned parents and young people submitted a protest letter to Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra, opposing the government's recent policies aimed at legitimising the informal economy and legalising gambling. The policies include the construction of a multi-billion baht entertainment complex, which has triggered significant public outcry.

Kamala Harris Expresses Openness to Exploring Reparations for Slavery
Yet another word salad pander by Kamala. Manages to say nothing, but takes two minutes to say it. She wants to shore up her slipping support among black voters, especially male blacks. The actual subject of reparations itelf deserves a whole new discussion, but the point here is that there is a bit of desperation showing in the Democratic ticket. -

Tourist Police Ensure Safety for Full Moon Party on Koh Phangan
Why do you suppose I have to go out to get that? Must be lonely in your world, to always have to pay for what you so desperately need. Again, there was nothing in my post that makes me unhappy. As I already posted to you before, there are only happiness in my world. Tell me now what was unhappy in the post? I just referred to how it is. If that is unhappy to you, then the world must suck in your eyes. -

Bangkok Bank Donates Over 70 Million Baht to Siriraj Hospital
Tax deductible is not the same as free! However, making charitable donations can be seen as virtue signalling by the more cynical amongst us.- 1
