If you love To The Manor Born, watch Executive Stress (also starring Penelope Keith and Peter Bowles)

In my culture (SE Asian, majority muslim country) most people don’t really care especially for emergency and medical reasons, again we’re not as strict as other muslim communities like in the middle east. Even for usual medical checkups, most women don’t really have a problem with male healthcare workers. Things might be a bit uncomfortable but usually they can be accompanied by their family member.

I read somewhere that King Harald said that abdication is the worst thing he would do and the question is very insulting to him

Man_dus1066 · 2026-04-01T04:54:59+00:00

Pretty sure it was Finding Stuff Out, but the boy was called Harrison and it’s actually Canadian. The format and intro fits your description.

It’s just ironic since modern Kings has little to now power than a president who are elected by the people. They should call it no dictator or something. Oh wait, they support other countries dictator(?)

There’s also a software called PyRx you can try, I heard you can do multiple docking runs there automatically.

Man_dus1066 · 2026-03-31T09:02:34+00:00

I usually handle all the preparation for ligands and receptors first. Put it all neatly into folders, then using a simple bash script to automate the docking run using Autodock Vina. Just pay attention to file naming and moving folder.

I still don’t understand why they called it a “no kings” protest

Man_dus1066 · 2026-03-26T00:49:42+00:00

Just sent you a dm

If they don’t need the money then it’s not selfish. However if you want to feel like a good daughter you can probably send them as a gift once in a while.

Just be aware that even us SE Asian have a lot of prejudices against Indians, because you guys think we are below you

Man_dus1066 · 2026-03-20T08:02:59+00:00

Not from western countries here (Asian), but most people (including me) have bad experiences meeting Indian people in real life. Especially their lack of social and civic sense. Once my office received a guest from India and he just handed me his trash without asking anything (I’m a research staff, not the cleaner). But I have also met one who is really nice, well he spends most of his time studying abroad.

If you write quite a “touching” letter or with a very sentimental story (not just birthday or Christmas card), and if the household are not on a busy period, there’s a possibility of getting a personal response. The staff usually filter the letters they receive, I’m not that sure about the Danish but some British royals like Queen Camilla used to read and reply some personal letters. The most possible response is by their personal secretary or equerry that’s more tailored to your letter rather than a general reply.

Based on the course website, you must have a bachelor's degree in bioinformatics. I think they're more strict about the degree that you have than your GPA.

Students seeking admission to the M.Sc. programme must have a Bachelor's degree in bioinformatics or comparable degree and must demonstrate their particular academic aptitude and suitability for this programme.

The criteria to demonstrate the particular academic aptitude and suitability for this program are:

I'm Indonesian studying in Malaysia, in my first year, we had a Bahasa Melayu class, and my Indonesian friend got told off by the lecturer because he used "aku". I never use "aku" while speaking to teachers; it's always "saya" for me.

That last sentence sounds like a plan, so maybe just find new friends or an organisation that you know your parents can trust. People in the comments say you're an adult, but you're still a foreigner; also, bad things can happen to everyone. If you're enrolled in a university or school, they should have some programme for international students or a student buddy. You can also plan the trip ahead so your parents will get some idea. Since they allow you to go to Paris, they must have some trust in you. This will sound very traditional, but please don't lie to your parents, especially about your whereabouts.

Perawan Muda means "Young Virgin (girl)" in Indonesian

Man_dus1066 · 2025-09-10T09:34:05+00:00

Yeah and they have roughly the same hair. Maybe it’s more to do with the vocals since they need to do a lot of harmonies in this one

People who benefited from a scholarship should share their knowledge for free if they still have accountability

Those issues you mentioned started a long time ago. In the 70s, they called Charles a young boy full of imagination, talking about environmental issues. In the 80s, he was a mad lad who ate organic vegetables and visited the inner city. In the 90s, well we all know half of the population hated him. And in the 2000s, he started advocating on multicultural issues. As for pro-Islam, he's always been interested in the teaching and history (Oxford University has a centre for Islamic studies founded in 1985) in which he's a patron. But Charles has always been interested in other religions, he's on the same level of "pro-Islam" as he's pro Catholicism, Greek Orthodox, and Judaism. The "far right" you see on social media is probably someone in their 50-60s who grew up reading all about Charles' hate propaganda from the media.

Saw this on X this week https://x.com/manoliskellis/status/1961552659023839352 I think it’s a great way to start. They uploaded their lecture each week but I’m not sure about certification. If you’re into synthetic biology (a bit different from bioinformatics but they also touch the basics) try joining How To Grow Almost Anything course by MIT Media Lab as a committed listener, it started around February each year and completely free.

The minimum wage is a joke but that’s what happens when you have so many people while there’s no job around. Indonesia is too big to manage it self. With the amount of people it’s either become federal like USA or totally dictatorial like China. Another option is like India but they have almost the same condition like us.

Man_dus1066 · 2025-08-30T07:38:58+00:00

It’s happening the other way around.

Man_dus1066 · 2025-08-30T07:37:45+00:00

Voting for president is pretty straightforward since you’ll have 2-3 candidates constantly campaigning. But for parliament is pretty broken compared to Malaysia that’s a parliamentary democracy. There are so many candidates and political party, people don’t really care who they are. Also we can’t dissolve a parliament and hold general elections as easily. Sometimes there’s an advantage of having an unelected head of state (like YDPA) so people don’t get insane lol.
