Don't chase happiness
Movie watching has been linked to dopamine release, which is associated with pleasure and reward mechanisms in the brain. Research suggests that the repeated attraction to movie watching may be tied to the mesolimbic "reward" system, with dopamine playing a key role in the pleasure derived from movies. Additionally, certain movies are described by users as providing a "dopamine hit," often due to their engaging, entertaining, or emotionally stimulating content. (Maybe that's it) -

Was just about to post that S-timer he's a busy today. I'm surprised he has time to think of a thread when he is flying all around Thailand. -

Here's a new one
Yeah, seems to be impossible to get a bankaccount now, unless non immigrant B with workpermit (the WP only having been mentioned a few times, but the non B is an absolute requirement). Will have a go tomorrow in Buriram, but not much hope as all the banks seem to refer to guidelines recently received from their respective head offices. At the moment for longer stays in my case I seem to be limited to non O, followed by 60 day extension on visiting wife, and then a new non O visa. Rather costly with the needed travels and just the non O also coming in at 80€. Along with uncertainty and having to rely on the missus bank account for living expenses, rent payments and whatnot. So basically prospective longstayers either married or retired who do not yet have local bankaccount are <deleted> out of luck. Retirees do have the option of the non OA visa, but after will get stuck if wanting an in-country extension... -

KPlus is now almost useless to me after 4 years without issues they impose this on me
I just talked to Kbank. A bit reluctantly, she said: These are new government regulations, if and when the other banks follow through, she doesn't know. They mostly affect Thais, as well. Kbank reduces all those limits first for new customers, and for customers who for example change their phone number, or similar situations. Old customers, who don't change anything, no change for the time being. The endgame is: ATM daily limit 20,000. Transfers daily limit 49,999. Face scan or not. Pay by QR code, no limit. I am glad I have very little money in Thai banks. And I will reduce it even more. -

Don't chase happiness
Self reported happiness is very unreliable. Maybe he is maybe he isn't. Grow up in a very dysfunctional family and just the absence of pain produces it's own happiness. I know from experience. Very low sex drive also reduces the need for status. Blessed with good dopamine production and without any effort life is quite happiness inducing. Put in the effort to remove suffering in oneself and live in beingness and often the default is a kind of contentment often know as happiness. -

Don't chase happiness
Online stalkers often experience heightened levels of dopamine, a brain chemical associated with pleasure and reward, which can contribute to addictive behaviors. This dopamine release is similar to the brain's response to other rewarding activities, such as eating or social interaction, and can lead to a cycle of seeking more stimulation through stalking. The pursuit of attention from a particular individual can trigger a significant dopamine release, making the behavior more compelling for the stalker. This dopamine-driven behavior can be difficult to resist, as the brain seeks the continued reward of the attention received.- 1
