  1. Just google eSIMs. It is really easy. There are articles and videos to show you how to activate them on your phone. It is easier now than when I first started with them.
  2. Public Wi-Fi users are prime targets for MITM attacks because the information they send is often not encrypted, meaning it's easy for hackers to access your data. Once they're in, they can grab your emails, usernames, passwords, and more. They might even lock you out of your own accounts by resetting your passwords.Feb 12, 2024 9 Possible Ways Hackers Can Use Public Wi-Fi to Steal Your ...
  3. I just use eSIMs now. Started with Airalo, but now mostly use Nomad. Prices are good and it works on arrival. It does not come with a local phone number though. I use WhatsApp or whatever for verbal communication.
  4. This was a common scam in Europe. It may still be. The people who would approach you would say they’re with the tourist police. They would say that they want to inspect the money in your wallet to make sure there are no counterfeits. Just walk away. I think it would be a little difficult for an Iranian National to convince anybody in Bangkok that he is a police officer.
  5. I wonder how many of the deaths were due to positional asphyxia given the way they have them on their abdomens and somewhat stacked on each other.
  6. This is so funny. I have never heard this term, SIDE. I have always viewed myself has a Top that was not really into it for the most part. I primarily topped because my partner wanted that. Never bottomed and no desire to. Under the right circumstances, I might really want to top, but for the most part, I enjoy all the rest of the activities. When it comes to hiring someone, I would think that it would be easier for the person being hired if there was no anal expectations. I like the caressing, intimacy and kissing. So, maybe from the perspective of guy being hired, I would be more demanding than the straightforward top because of the kissing. But that is why it is important to know what is included in the fee.
  7. I know that this was not what you wanted and I understand the frustration. But honestly, I am a little jealous of your adventures.
  8. I got to finally try out the Timeshifter app. It was extremely effective on my trip from the West Coast of the United States to France and Ireland. I just followed the instructions for a couple of days before hand and a couple of days after you arrive. I had almost no jet lag at all. It does take a little bit of discipline. For example, it told me to sleep on the plane and I wasn’t able to completely do that. However, I simply put on an eye mask and rested in complete darkness when I could not sleep. It worked. I really had almost no jet lag at all and I am going to use this for all of my future international trips. I highly recommend it. I was fine on arrival in Europe as well as on return home.
  9. Does this affect the VIP service that various companies offer to expedite arrival?
  10. JD is no Linda Carter!
  11. I had never heard that Prime had a tablet with pictures of the masseurs that you could choose. I have never had a bad massage at Prime and the massages have always been professional without any int of extras. So I just go there for quality massage.
  12. There is fatigue and tiredness. And then there’s Jetlag. One can be fatigued and tired from traveling as well as a lack of sleep. That can resolve with one nights sleep. But the jet lag is actually a different thing. Jetlag can take one day for every hour of time difference to make the adjustment. Jet lag is mostly related to our internal clock, and that is most affected by light exposure, whether we are able to sleep or not. There has been a lot of research and science done on the subject. The way to avoid jet lag is proper exposure or lack of exposure to light at the correct times to prevent jet lag. This needs to begin a couple of days before the trip. Being exposed to light at the wrong times can actually make Jet lag worse.
  13. I am going to be using the Timeshifter app for a trip to Europe in August. I did a fair amount of research on this and I have high hopes for this. The reviews are quite positive if you follow their instructions. The idea of being able to arrive in Europe or Asia and come off the plane without jet lag is extremely enticing to me.
  14. The AP is reporting that the victims were foaming at the mouth. If true, that would make carbon monoxide less likely. Poisonings that would lead to foaming of the mouth raise the question of murder being the manner of death.
  15. Usually this sort of thing is due to carbon monoxide. Usually due to heating which would not be used in Thailand. But cooking and water heating might use natural gas or propane.
  16. Framing someone for this type of crime would be very dangerous, because one would have to have possession of the material to plant it or transmit it. The risk of having it backfire in their face is high enough that I think that very few people would be foolish enough to try to pull that off.
  17. I think that you misunderstood my post. The video is of a 10 year old boy be sexually abused by someone other than Austin Wolf. Austin Wolf had possession of a copy of this video (a very serious felony in itself) and also transmitted this video to others (a very serious felony in itself). The government is not claiming that Austin Wolf made this video or participated in the sexual assault. In the USA, simply possessing this material, even if you had nothing to do with the sexual assault or production of the video, is a very serious crime with potentially very long prison sentences. Austin Wolf is learning that lesson the hard way.
  18. I don’t think that he has been charged with raping the 10 year old in the video. My reading of the charges was that someone other than Austin Wolf created that video. He is charged with possession of that video and sending it to the FBI agent and/or the initial person whose arrest led the FBI to Austin Wolf. His charges are serious enough, but they would be worse if the FBI could prove that he actually sexually abused a child.
  19. I think that his best likelihood of reducing sentence is to plead guilty. That spares the expense and work of trial and is worth something to the prosecution. The better tool is to have something useful to the prosecution. Time will tell on that. Juries aren’t sympathetic in general. It is also not just the content that he dowloaded which could be a combination of illegal and technically legal material. He was in contact with the FBI via Telegram and the content of those exchanges could easily undermine any attempt to argue that he thought that the content was simulated. Also, we have not seen (and only a jury will be shown) the video of the 10 year old being brutally victimized. There may very well be no plausible way to argue that he thought that the video was “simulated”.
  20. The political party mentioned is a far right Flemish nationalist party. Its predecessor party was disbanded due to racism. That is interesting, given this guy is in Thailand with the Thai girlfriend. I wonder if there is a far right expat group in Hua Hin that the victim and the German assailant are both part of. I also find it interesting that a party comrade came to Thailand to take care of him rather than a family member or some other close friend. He must have been pretty heavily involved with this political party.
  21. Thank you very much Vinapu. Those are very much my kind of places and they don’t look to be very expensive!
  22. Perhaps they should call it Club Shower. This is assuming that there is a shower somewhere. Oh well, in a pinch, a hose hooked up to a spigot in a corner will do.
  23. I like apartment hotels. These split the difference. What I really like is having a kitchenette. I do not need a full apartment. I have stayed in a few of these, most recently in Singapore and really like this. So, my partner looks for airbnb’s while I look for hotels and aparthotels. I also think that they are more professionally run.
