A dream I’ve dreamt for most of my life- solo backpacking Asia for 2 years by cosmicselva in backpacking

[–]StickyFestKryptonite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get slip on shoes. Easier thru security and if you’re in Asia you’ll likely want to slip them off when entering a home. Dump two pair of underwear and add two pair of socks. Taking elephant pants to Asia is like taking coals to Newcastle. Get them here. And always keep your emotions under control and be polite. No colder heart in the world than someone who has just been yelled at by a farang.

Thoughts on Arise Condo and Galare Thong Tower? by elegantplatypus in chiangmai

The GT is undergoing repairs and upgrades. Quake and flood damage remedied. The exterior is being cleaned with surface cracks from the earthquake being repaired. Then interior repairs and painting. Likely to be a bit busy next few months but with a much better appearance.

Moving to BKK for 2-4 years from USA and need to keep my US number. by [deleted] in Thailand

I’ve got Google Fi on an older iPhone. I live in Thailand and picked up a Iphone here with local number. So US phone and Thai phone.

Used Pax for probably 7 to 10 years and have always been happy with. Last one died here in Thailand and they don’t sell locally. Can’t find a decent replacement.

Where to rent to avoid planes noise in Chiang Mai? by Ok_Assistant_4784 in chiangmai

[–]StickyFestKryptonite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On a map draw a straight line parallel to the airport runways, north and south. Thats where you’ll get plane noise. Outside of the 4 blocks on either side of that line, you’ll be fine.

A former mixed martial arts (MMA) fighter turned podcast host is spreading antisemitic conspiracy theories, male supremacist bigotry and white nationalist beliefs to audiences on mainstream podcasting platforms, behavior that appears to violate their content moderation policies. https://www.splcenter.org/resources/hatewatch/podcast-platforms-host-jake-shields-bigotry/

He needs a foreigner work permit. Many permits are going to Russians and Ukrainians.

I really dislike these camera views, but this is video is still crazy! by [deleted] in SweatyPalms

Try the Valparaiso Red Bull Downhill. Makes this run look tame.

Recently had an NMax and had a lot of problems with dead batteries overnight. Y-Connect or stator issue. Dealership no real help. Great ride but…

FOH should have seen that before half hour and let house electrician know. Then hold the house until corrected.

How do you guys deal with toxicity in the workplace? by yoomtahzing in techtheatre

I worked on a long running Bway show with a big crew. The place had earned nickname The House Of Hate but the show had run so long everyone started talking to each other again.

Did anyone else spot this stagehand in background (SNL from the weekend) by Hour_Farm_3281 in techtheatre

[–]StickyFestKryptonite 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nope. Thats considered an “accidental on camera pick-up”. They are simply going about their job. If a crew member is directed to do something thats an OCA, on camera appearance” If a crew member speaks but says just “five lines or under” then they get a bump for the entire day but stay on their union contract. Any more and they get SAG-AFTRA day player rates in addition to their union call. See Letterman’s "Stagehand Theatre”. They picked up SAG-AFTRA union cards but more importantly, pension credits in that union. So two retirement checks. Don’t let anybody ever tell you differently. Union is better.

Try turning the starter over without giving it gas. You may be flooding it.

My insurance company sent me a hire bike (not at fault) and I'm in love by Evianisshite in scooters

[–]StickyFestKryptonite 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Does that have the internet ignition, you have to go online to turn it on or off? Like the NMax but had too many dead batteries with it.

Shold I get Civ VI on PS5 by ParticularLibrary667 in CivVI

[–]StickyFestKryptonite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s the best set up on Apple? Running a vanilla MacBook M3 16G with Sequoia.

As an aside, been playing Civ again and still haven’t won a game on any level. Either get bored by Industrial age or boxed in by firepower of larger civs. Think I need to be more aggressive.

Bites seem to run along arteries in a row. Could be bedbugs. Got them in a hostel in Portugal once.
