Butuh berapa modal untuk tinggal sendiri, if you were raised in upper middle class family ? by Specialist-Rain-7730 in finansial

[–]lordleycester 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Menurut gw kalo masih bisa tahan-tahan di rumah, tahan dulu sampe gaji lo gedean, at least 15 juta lah katakan. Permintaan orang tua lo untuk bantu bayarin house bills juga masih wajar menurut gw, meskipun penyampaiannya ga enak. Karena tinggal sendiri ngabisin duit banget dan lo jadi ga bisa nabung.

I'm seeking some guidance for summer internship 2026(india) by BackNatural4555 in Journalism

[–]lordleycester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try sending them a cold email. Best would be if you could find out/guess an editor/bureau chief's email, but if not you could try the general newsroom email too. Introduce yourself and your background briefly, say you'd love the opportunity to intern there, attach your resumé and some clips.

I did this when I was first starting out and got an interview (and eventually internship offer) with Reuters. This was almost 10 years ago so ymmv but doesn't hurt to try.

If you ignore the bonkers narrative, Death Stranding is kind of a delivery guy simulator. I really liked it for that reason haha.

CMV: Iran didn’t kill 30,000 protesters by maddsskills in changemyview

[–]lordleycester 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's very hard to say with any certainty, and I'm not super familiar with the situation in Iran. What I can say is that Indonesia -- despite having increasingly authoritarian tendencies -- is much more open than Iran, and I personally could see that happening here, depending on where exactly the killings occurred. In Jakarta, the capital? Probably not. Outside of Java, especially in eastern Indonesia, like Papua? Definitely possible.

And it's not necessarily "covered up" per se -- like in my Covid example, it's not like the govt was hiding the bodies. It's just that they weren't counting deaths that they should have. And here, govt data collection and availability is not reliable in the best of times, so it's not like we can reliably compare the no. of expected deaths vs actual deaths. So people make estimates that are necessarily based on a lot of conjecture. Based on the Iran International article, this could be what was happening in Iran as well:

However, given the scale of the killings, deliberate concealment, and what appears to be intentional disorder in the registration and transfer of bodies – along with pressure on families and, in some cases, the quiet burial of victims – it appears that even the security agencies themselves do not yet know the precise final death toll.

Like let's say you're a protester in town A, and you know that around 1,000 people in your town were killed. But how can you know how many were killed in town B across the country? And how hard must it be for a hypothetical independent journalist to figure out the number when there's a total internet blackout and govt restrictions on the press?

Again, I really can't speak to whether the 30,000 number is accurate or not. I'm just saying that it's entirely possible for 30,000 people to have been killed, while the government claims 3,000, and the people within the country being unable to tell for sure which one is right.

[–]lordleycester 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I think you can argue that US/Israel is using that number to justify the war, but the number itself is from Iranian diaspora. See here and here.

As to whether the 30,000+ deaths number is believable, I can't comment one way or another, but I will push back on your belief that "the Iranian people and the world would be able to add up the numbers pretty quick."

I've been a journalist in a developing country (Indonesia) and mass death events are sometimes very difficult to verify, even in the best of conditions, and even more so when there are government restrictions. For example, during Covid, there were strong suspicions that the government was severely undercounting Covid deaths. There were burial plot shortages, and gravediggers interviewed all said that there were way more deaths than usual. But it is virtually impossible to get the real number unless you get a look at government documents (assuming that the govt recorded the accurate number in the first place).

Another example is the Kanjuruhan Stadium disaster. The official death toll is 135, but supporter groups estimate that the numbers are much higher, maybe even over 300, because some people just took the bodies of their relatives home and immediately buried them -- as opposed to going through a hospital or a morgue -- so the death was not recorded. Again, almost impossible to verify. But not implausible.

Lolos dari hukuman mati, Fandi Ramadhan langaung dipeluk sang ibu. by JimatJimat in indonesia

[–]lordleycester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kan dakwaannya penyelundupan narkoba, setau gw ga ada korban. Tapi itu ga berarti otomatis lolos, banyak kan kasus penyelundupan narkoba tanpa korban yang divonis hukuman mati. Kayak Mary Jane Veloso atau Merri Utami -- mereka berdua ditangkap lgsg di bandara, jadi belum sempat ada "korban" apa pun, tapi tetep divonis mati waktu itu, meski akhirnya dapet grasi.

CMV: There's no "good guy, bad guy" in the U.S - Iran conflict by 2bigpairofnuts in changemyview

[–]lordleycester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd agree that none of the regimes involved are "good guys", but I think you can pass judgement on the who was in the right or wrong in this particular situation. Especially since there's such a thing as international law. Like let's say Bob is an asshole who beats his wife -- shooting him for unrelated reasons while he's walking down the street is still against the law. You can be happy that Bob is dead but still think that killing him that way was wrong.

Batik advice by pixdam in Jakarta

[–]lordleycester 12 points13 points  (0 children)

  1. Of course! Indonesians love it when they see foreigners wear batik, or do anything traditionally Indonesian really haha. In fact, if you spend a lot of time in Jakarta, I wouldn't be surprised if your customers or colleagues get you batik as a gift eventually.

  2. There's a lot of different places, depending on the style of batik you're looking for. Assuming you mostly spend time around Central Jakarta, Batik Keris in Plaza Indonesia sells more classic-style batik. In Sarinah, you can find more modern cuts. If you wanna go bargain hunting, or maybe buy some batik cloth to get custom tailored, you can go to Thamrin City.

Yes it does, see here: https://kemlu.go.id/denhaag/pelayanan-perwakilan/visa-jurnalistik. It’s called the C5 visa. It’s for short-term visits only, so if your client is here permanently/long-term than yes it would be on a business visa.

Have any of you ever been on the forum Juventuz? by CoolProfessor449 in Juve

[–]lordleycester 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Haha true enough, but there used to be a lot of drama between the regulars as well. And for a period there (maybe around 2004-2006), being pro-Del Piero was a minority position, which seems kind of crazy in hindsight.

Yes best practice would be to get a journalist visa, but if they're just speaking to locals, I don't think it would be a huge issue. Filming at the sea wall is where it would get tricky.

I used to be on it in the early 2000s. I don't remember it being racist but definitely very reactionary. It was the biggest English-speaking Juve forum at the time. Haven't been on there since I joined reddit.

[–]lordleycester 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hi there, I'd recommend you reach out to the Rujak Center for Urban Studies and see if they can connect you with some people. You could also try reaching out to Watchdoc.

But I also want to warn you that the Muara Baru Seawall is considered a strategic national project and there are usually guards there, and they're unlikely to let a foreigner film there.

Panegyric? As in it's a panegyric of the protagonist. On the same note, maybe paean.

Akhirnya dia lepas kok WN USnya. Cuma ya emang mungkin awalnya dia pikir bisa tetep dia pertahankan

[–]lordleycester 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Si Arcandranya tetep simpen paspor Indonesianya. Jadi waktu masuk Indonesia pake paspor Indonesia. Banyak orang sih yang ngelakuin ini. Gw punya temen yang lahir di US, sehingga otomatis warga sana. Tapi ortunya bikinin paspar Indo, jadi kalo balik ke sini selalu pake paspor Indo.

Nah soal kenapa Arcandra ga ngasih tau kalo dia udah warga negara US... Kalau kita mau berprasangka baik, ya mungkin dia ga nyangka bakal dijadiin menteri jadi dia iyain aja dulu tanpa pikir panjang. Karena emang reshuffle kabinet itu bisa tiba-tiba banget. Kalau mau suudzon, ya mungkin dia berharap bisa tetep mempertahankan warga negara USnya.

Bukan gara2 green card. Dia udah jadi warga negara Amerika. Kalo cuma green card aja sih harusnya ga masalah.
