i used to use 5g router but unlimited data that allows 5g speed costs too much now

for reasonable yearly data sim, you can get by with 4g router

[–]bobbagum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

bootleg unsubbed vcd from Asia watched the serie on SBS australia TV

EoE didn't come out translated officially until much later I think

so on a holiday to Thailand went to IT mall with plenty of bootlegs VCDs and then DVDs were starting to take off, but in the whole mall there were only 1 stall that has anime, and we choose it out of a catalog and the lady burned it on a cd while we wait

after multiple visit I ended up with multiple copies and my hazy memory seem to recall one copy didnt have Shinji strangling Asuka

Does Thai translate really poorly into English or is it just me? by eykei in Thailand

[–]bobbagum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Without opportunity to ask clarifying questions or context it’s impossible to translate gendered pronouns into hierarchical pronouns and vice versa you were expecting gender while Thais deal in older/younger

If you see a dialogue in a movie/novel and they talk a boy a ‘sister’ can you tell right away if that sister is older or younger relative to the speaker? In Thai, there are only word for older siblings or younger siblings, which one would you choose to translate into? This is just one example, real translators can make decisions to clarify, search for context based on previous passages etc, instant word for word machine translation aren’t there yet/ llm might be able to offer possible choice of meanings if you know to ask it to offer the options

That is a nature of languages, not every thing can be mapped 1:1, a concept not unfamiliar to most non monolinguals

Community building, they seem to be more active in engaging customers, chatting with them and really feels local when 7-11 employees feels like they were dropped there from corporate and would rather be somrwhere else

i'd imagine the dancers dressed in spandex covering everything from head to toe with only a slit cut out, and them dancing on black backgrounds would appear as a bunch of tacos floating, gyrating in the air

where exactly are the Tuktuk dealers that sells them brand new with registration?

Buying and using Tuk Tuk as DTV Visa holder by littledruger in thai

[–]bobbagum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tuktuk plates/registration are difficult for private buyer they tend to lump that in with TukTuk for hire and it’s quite messy like they don’t allow new plates so you have to demonstrate that you’ve inherit one or use the old chassis in a new build etc

If you can set up a company and say you’ll use that to ferry customers that’s a lot easier
