I came across this video on youtube and sharing it for an insight of Bangkok in these Covid times... https://youtu.be/6SZatPIcnDM

Videos can be inserted into posts by clicking the "Insert Video" (second from right) and then entering the video url.

After a promising cover picture, the video quality is awful (despite resolution 720) and and the video is in Chinese with Chinese subtitles (so blurred that I cannot read them).

Thank you, Christian. I'm new here, so your kind advice regarding how to insert a video is very much appreciated; I shall now remember this for next time. I guess you're right that the video is rather shaky and, alas, I'm unable to read (or translate) Chinese. I suppose I was just grateful to see how the old stomping ground was faring.
To Siscu58: I too am rather missing the place.

Au contraire Christian, the video quality is good on my device and I can read the subtitles clearly. Perfect sound.
That tattooed topless guy is top. Good for Latin.

Yep, it's perfect on my iPad, too.

And I learnt how to write Covid in Chinese! FYI Christian, this is how they do it:

丘比得

On my mobile phone the video quality is good. Must be a problem that occurs only on my computer.

丘比得
That's qiu-bi-de, a transliteration variant of 丘比特 qiu-bi-te which is Cupid.

The Chinese official name for Covid is 新型冠状病毒.

The Chinese official name for Covid is 新型冠状病毒 literally translates as:
new - style - crown - shaped - disease - poison.

Ugly can be 难看 Trad. 難看 nán kàn literally: difficult to look at, or more elegant in English: unsightly.
Or better 丑陋 Trad. 醜陋 chǒu lòu (literally: ugly - ugly).

But some adjectives are that are formed by prefix un- im- in- in English are formed as "diffcult to + verb" in Chinese.
