    EV in Indonesia

    People in the far Northern Hemisphere will have their lights for 6 months and then live in the dark for the other 6. Imagine the batteries needed to live in Alaska or Northern Canada?

    VPN

    I would have a very hard time thinking that such an organization would protect your data since they are basically government controlled and the government does not like VPNs. Kind of like handing a lion a chunk of meat and asking them to hold it for you.

    Any expat community in Lampung?

    If you consider a couple bulesand their families a group than yes. Really not a lot of expats here in Lampung. Certainly are some but most that we run into are either just visiting or in a couple cases rather anti social. One with family will be heading back here from the states soon too...

    EV in Indonesia

    Looking out the window wearing my motor helmet to check to see if the sky is falling. Nope, not my sky.

    EV in Indonesia

    Evidently you must feel the regulatory system is being ignored. I doubt that very much. The government is totally in charge. I'm guessing they are smarter now than they were in 1908. Think about Japan in 1908 and 2024. Completely different world there.

    How much do you pay for a good driver in Jakarta

    What benefit to the bosses are these people if they have no skills for the bosses to offer. Japan will train them and by law teach them Japanese. They have no interest in teaching them English and even if they could speak English it would be if no benefit in Japan.

    How much do you pay for a good driver in Jakarta

    Most are placed in facilities for elder care. It is mandatory they attend classes to learn to speak Japanese and read and write Kanji. This while they get paid on the job training that far surpasses what they would get here. Their group housing is supplied also. If any took up prostitution they...

    EV in Indonesia

    All this talk about power being generated on Islands surrounded by moving oceans and nobody even mentions tidal generated power production. If you look at Japan and claim it is too unstable with it's geology than you better realize that wind generation towers would also fall and solar panels...

    I spread the wealth and use Go and Grab. Little bit in many pockets.

    Record Surge in Global Heat

    As much as I dislike the guy you mentioned, truth be told, there were a number of presidents, Senators, Congress People, Cabinate members, Directors, aids that came before that talked, talked, talked and did nothing, nothing, nothing. Not just them, you could circumnavigate the globe and find no...

    Record Surge in Global Heat

    They started seriously discussing in 1992. 20 years earlier I and many others had already been exposed to these revelations in our University studies in Geography and Climatology classes. Of course then it was called the normal and expected Earth Climatic cycle. As for governments agreeing on...

    Record Surge in Global Heat

    In part. The population of this planet is just too large for it to support plus the largest population areas being condensed could just be throwing the whole Earth off balance. One can only tilt so far before tipping over. Not to mention the sun shining where it normally doesn't.

    Record Surge in Global Heat

    Maybe the Earth, like it's biological inhabitants is developing a fever to fight off that which ails it.

    EV in Indonesia

    Safe reliable energy for me is when I turn something electrical on, it comes on, doesn't blow up, and doesn't electrocute me. Get that far and I'm good. I can't change the world and so not going to try. The only thing I seen of tree huggers is bark burns and a few beetles in their pants. I can...

    EV in Indonesia

    Back in the day I was one of those guys who had to go into nuclear storage areas to monitor for any radiation. There was always some munitions guy who tried to scare the new visitors by hitting the bombs with a hammer. Smart guys like myself who were trained knew full well that if there was any...

    EV in Indonesia

    Curious. Do you spend your life hiding under your bed or in some type of closet just in case the sky falls? Sure seems like it. Guess what, the day will come and you die. Why not get out from under the security blanket and just go live a little while you can.

    Evidently many agree that it is. They get it through X-rays and for just warming food. The thing about radiation is how it is managed and the type of radiation.

    EV in Indonesia

    I live in Indonesia as I believe you do also. You want to eliminate petroleum products here and everywhere. The petroleum business is big business here and while you get your wish of eliminating domestic use, exports will sky rocket because China would buy the majority of it just like they buy...
