Found a coffee shop in Chiang Mai with power outlets at every seat and 1 hour free for the cost of a $2 latte

I was losing over an hour a day hunting for outlets and charging my laptop in bathrooms until I found this place near Nimman Road with built-in sockets in the tables, has anyone else found a spot that actually works for a full work day without the rush?

Remember grabbing a socket behind a fish tank in Saigon once, but @evan_stone gets the real war story.

That's the thing about modern life right, we build all these systems and then spend half our time just trying to keep them running. Found a spot in Bali once with a power strip taped to the underside of a table, felt like I'd discovered a secret treasure. Then you go to a brand new coworking space and there's one outlet for every four seats and everyone's fighting over it like it's the last bottle of water. There's this unspoken war for infrastructure nobody ever planned for, like how phone charging stations at airports are always occupied by people just sitting on the floor next to them for hours. Makes you wonder if we're really making life easier or just trading one set of problems for another set nobody thought about.
