    Annoying Ads on the site.

    I understand that this forum needs money to survive but the latest ads that popup from the bottom are extremely annoying. Does anyone else think this or is it just accepted as the price to pay to use the site? For me on a laptop between the bottom and top ads i now lose about a third my screen.

    Online Security

    I only skimmed through the video but it seems to skip over the most important part - how to stop the phone companies from issuing a new sim. From what i saw the "advice" they gave in the video was pretty basic only. Seemed to focus more on dramatising the threat than how to avoid it. I will...

    Online Security

    I just heard about a guy in Indonesia whose computer and then phone number was hacked and he lost a bunch of money. They managed to access his banks, trading accounts etc. Other than obviously not downloading unknown software and being wary of clicking any links are there any other tips to keep...

    I dont know if this will work but halodoc app has online chat with doctors and they then write prescriptions which are automatically delivered by a gojek like service. Dont know if theyd go so far as heart medicines but only one way to find out.

    Picture stick?

    Everything you are writing screams red flag to me. Do you do any banking etc on that computer? Pay with credit cards for things online? You will basically be installing a very unknown piece of software on your computer which could give them future access to everything. How about just try...

    CIA Front Group Preparing A "Color Revolution" In Indonesia?

    There are 50 million school kids and approx 240 school days per year. That makes it 36k idr per meal which seems high for Indonesia.

    Looking for a new full size refrigerator in Bandung

    I tried to do this with AC's. Recently installed a non inventer Daikin in one room at my house. I have had no end of trouble with it and Daikin have been useless at repairing it. Its left me thinking that nowadays the non inverter home products are no longer the basic robust units but rather the...

    Six soldiers named suspects in assault on Ganjar-Mahfud supporters

    Did someone die? The article says 2 people were treated at a local hospital. Honestly doesnt sound like a big deal....just a small confrontation and the type of thing that im sure happens almost every day somewhere. Not even necessarily a political issue.

    Coconuts newsletter

    Pantaiema you keep trying to chime in with weird opinions on things that you upfront state that you dont have any knowledge on. You then try to google and copy and paste a load of semi relevant links to prove a point. Why bother? Im beginining to think you are actually an AI bot designed just...

    Moving company (local and international)

    Not sure where this is coming from - as this is the same service worldwide. A professional moving company is responsible for safely packaging and moving your valuable property. They use the correct packaging and wrapping to ensure its safety. Thats their job.

    Moving company (local and international)

    the big ones defintiely bring their own stuff. They wouldnt trust anyone else to package it. I think thats the difference between a moving company and just a freight company.

    Best credit card for shopping

    what amazes me in the US is how you give them the card in a restaurant...they charge it, they return the card and then you write down a tip on a piece of paper.....and they can charge it again even without having the card. No pins, no even looking at the signature really. Also if they wanted...

    Best credit card for shopping

    Hows the exchange rate? Id be amazed if you are not losing 3%+. Yes indonesian banks are a nightmare when there are fraudulent charges but in my experience that has very rarely happened. US banks dont even have basic protection such as pins or 2 party authentification.
