    coffee lovers unite

    All the good coffee used to get exported as there wasn't the market for it locally. The situation's much better these days. Praise goes to the local hipsters! Where are you based that you're missing out, and are you missing beans, equipment or both?

    Introduction and first post

    According to Pak Google, "1,000,000 words will take about 55.6 hours to read for the average reader". 7 million words therefore works out at more than 16 days of continuous reading. Crikey.

    Twitter Wars: Bali vs. Kristen Gray

    Ah, the pre-discussion discussion. Know it well. These days that's a solid five hours on Zoom.

    Twitter Wars: Bali vs. Kristen Gray

    I seem to remember some discussion about the govt introducing a "nomad" visa. Was it part of the omnibus bill?

    DON'T PANIC.... well, maybe a little bit.

    There's quite a lot to unpack there, mate. Let's leave it at noting that car crashes, strokes, etc aren't wildly infectious.

    DON'T PANIC.... well, maybe a little bit.

    Yes. And of course the real number is unknown, but much higher. Restrictions don't eliminate the virus. They try to slow the rate of infection so that the health system isn't overwhelmed. This also buys time to get programs like track and trace (lol, chance would be a fine thing) or vaccination...

    According to this article, health workers get the vaccine first (OK, makes sense), but next in line are the army and police? What's the thinking there? https://www.thejakartapost.com/news/2020/12/20/jokowi-hopes-vaccinations-will-start-in-january.html

    No More Inefficient or Intolerant Indonesia - Jokowi's New Vision

    No More Inefficient or Intolerant Indonesia - Jokowi's New Vision

    Are we honestly chin-stroking over whether death threats are OK when it's someone we don't like? Come on, chaps. Murder is bad, mmkay. This is not a controversial take. Thou shalt not and all that. Crikey.

    Recommended Indonesian Alcohol Brands

    Where there's a will there's a way, Puspa. Thanks for the effort post, Atlantis. Our contractor gave me a bottle of homemade moonshine in an aqua bottle, but I was a bit put off when it curdled the orange juice I mixed it with...

    Recommended Indonesian Alcohol Brands

    Since this thread seems to have veered off into "acquired taste" territory, can I ask if they still make Mansion House spirits? Haven't seen it for years. Vile stuff, really - but it was cheap as chips.

    Still pretending to be an epidemiologist? All the cool kids have moved on to pretending to being experts in electoral law.

    DON'T PANIC.... well, maybe a little bit.

    Sorry, I was being tongue in cheek. The health ministry spokesman was claiming that the reason there were fewer total tests was because the virus was going away. This makes no logical sense. They've since backtracked and admitted that testing was down because the labs were closed over the long...
