Mine runs inline with my village water supply (which is supplemented by the city water) but the pump does run moat of the time when water is being used. The tank does work as a backup when the city water is out tho... but it's all automatic here

dont know about TV, but the fucking fan in my room turns on randomly sometimes... or changes from low to high.
The remote i have only works if its in the same room or very close to the door... so its something more powerful than the next door neighbors remote doing it.

That cop box is notorious for stopping every falang that stops there, or a goodly number of them anyway. When you dont go over the white line they will just take you anyway.
Do exactly what you did... take a photo. Most of the time they will tell you to have a nice day.
The vast majority of the falangs just pay up, so its a good business for them.

Go to http://kickass.to
Use their search engine instead of google, since google tends to block the vast majority of all torrent links. For me tho, kickass tends to return the best results. They also have a good comment system, so you can read the user comments before downloading. Tends to help weed out the garbage.

Damn Gabor, the girls must really dislike you.
I still get quoted 1.5k ST at babydolls and have for some time. And ive never heard larry say anything about ST fees, even if asked. 3-4k? Whoever told you that did not want to go with you, plain and simple.
Giving it a good think... I really can't fault the girl.

I had one for over a year... used the heck out of it, and never had a battery issue.
I think there is no issue... other than batteries in Thailand do seem to need replacing every year or 2. But thats on almost all bikes, not just the PCX

Best thai Dictionary ive ever had... its not a translator exactly, but it is the most handy tool I have when talking to Thai's. Translators are only about 20% accurate when translating from english to Thai... but if you look the words up one at a time, that accuracy approaches 100%, and this app, while not free, is very cheap and very accurate. Gives different examples of each word with intended meaning along with thai translations, and has a real voice (not computerized) to teach you how to speak the Thai equivalent.
It also has a thai script lookup for the reverse for when she wants to tell you something :)

She giving you this bill herself? lol
My GF has AIS as well, and she chats/sms's her friends all day... and I pay about b1700 a month. The package we are on is unlimited internet (b800), 600 SMS + 700 minutes calling.. and she usually goes over a bit. I think the package by itself is about b1500.
My package is b1200, with only 200 SMS and 200 minutes and unlimited internet, and I almost never go over, all of my stuff being on the internet. To be fair, a good deal of hers is too - Line/Viber.
5k baht means your either still using the cards and topping up her phone, or shes pocketing the difference. If your still on the cards... STOP IT lol. Get her to go to Telewiz and convert from 1-2-Call (AIS Pay as you go) to a AIS package that meets her needs... will save you a fortune every month.

The best online translator for actual content is www.Thai2English.com/Online
It takes a minute to read since it translates every "word" and gives you possibilities for each, and you have to sort of string the meaning together, but the end result is usually pretty close to what was said.

Tapatalk is awesome. You should give it a try at least. I think you will find that you like it a lot more than the mobile website forum.

If you ride a motorbike, at least bring a sweater.
It gets downright cold at night when your going 30+km/hr. Doing 80+ on sukhumvit is downright cold at times lol. First time since ive been here that I actually wear a coat when going places.
Its been like this for about 10 days now... very strange. But the daytime weather is awesome :)

Here is a link to my review last night of the place. Needless to say whats actually served (at least what was actually served to me) was just a little different than the photos given by the owner of the place. Sure hope this was some "accident" and that things get cleared up... Because the pics above look pretty good.

Agree with MM.
Am sure they have some meals that are less well prepared than others, but I have actually driven out to BC ONLY to eat at Beavers. I have had a good dozen or more of their meals (over dozens of visits - usually twice or so a month for the last 6 years), and with a couple minor cooking discrepancies they have all been awesome. I just can't say enough about Beavers food.

Lol short.
I would like to see that. Need a pretty big coin, and some really fucking small type to get it to fit :)

Short - Germany has declared that, but there is absolutely no way for them to even try to restrict, tax, monitor or even track bitcoin usage or ownership.
The whole point behind the Bitcoin was to remove the ability of any government to influence the value of it in any manner. Not sure if the architects thought about taxation or not, tho I would guess they did, and the design they came up with is a currency that cannot be tracked or traced in any manner by anybody.
As to the look of the "coin"... thats just a graphic. The bitcoin is a cryptographic currency. Think of it as a "file", tho that is not accurate. IN any case they are not "coins" as you know of them.
Cisco - Ya, that is correct. "no log" providers are a scam for the most part. Either they do keep logs and lie about it, or they are running their service on a network that is essentially worthless. Sucks, but with the amount of internet crime going on nowadays its not surprising that the governments are taking such a strong stand against those types of providers.

If you want to break the law... its best to know how the law works.
First, every VPN provider in the world that actually works well will log your activity and has to respond to copyright infringement or any other illegal activity. Sometimes you see new providers pop up and claim they do not keep logs etc, but without exception I have seen them shut down fairly quickly, either by legal action (if they are in a country that has VPN regulations), or by a mass banning of its IP addresses at major routers in countries that do, effectively shutting them down - a VPN that cannot route thru 1st world countries is worthless.
Second, even if you do not pay with a credit card (more on that in a minute), if the law(s) broken are significantly major, you CAN easily be found using those logs. Even if you use multiple VPNs routed one from another, there is a trail that can and will lead back to your ISP and then to you. Of course with copyright infringement that doesn't happen in most countries. Some places tho do go to extremes - a number of European countries now track and fine people using P2P, and VPNs will not always protect you.
So... the best you can hope for then is to make the VPN as anonymous as possible. The only way to do that nowadays is to pay for the VPN via an untraceable source. The best of these is a new internet currency called Bitcoins. Here is a article on the best VPN providers that accept Bitcoins:
http://www.bestvpn.com/blog/4646/best-vpn-for-bitcoin/
If your a computer guy and have an extra computer or 3 around the house, you can even get bitcoins "free" by tasking those computers to farm out data packets for bitcoins as "pay". Not a simple thing tho, so only people with good computer knowledge should try it. Its not "free" exactly as it will take computer time (and electricity), but it is doable. I am able to farm about 3-4 coins per month right now just by farming while I'm sleeping - each coin is worth around $110, give or take from day to day (its traded as a currency so it goes up and down like any other currency).
Anyway... hope this helps.

VPN in Pattaya. Which HMA node to use for UK? Will Chromecast work?
in Expat Issues
Posted
Hi Andy. Long time no see!
Answer 1: You are on the right track there. Connect to the UK node you normally use. The BKK node is worthless for your purposes.
Answer 2: This one I can't help with. It should work if it uses only the IP to determine location. You may try turning off location services on the tablet and see if that works. Or better yet, download a "fake GPS position" app and set the location to the UK as well and see if that helps. That will send a geodata ping to any requesting service saying you are physically in the UK.
That second option is how I get around the play store issues with not issuing certain apps to people over here.
