Specific countries with specific stockpiled resources that they can spare (that we need right now) are asked for help, but most of the world is not in position to be requested for help. Past the source + introduction of virus itself, the current problem is to mostly to be dealt with internally...

Death toll has increased to 10, these are mostly road construction workers it seems. Rest in peace. We are proud of our Armed forces in their prompt SAR operation:

We were all hoping for something else....but it was not to be. I feel very gutted about it. My deepest condolences to the families of the KRI Nanggala, fellow servicemen of Indonesian Navy and Military....and grieving Indonesian nation. May the departed warriors have fair winds eternally in...

Heh, they were DFI in the end it looks like, whoops. I was subbed to their (very good) feeds there

Happy Birthday @Kaptaan .... you now have tough decision on this car choice hehe. Update us how it goes later on that :) You have done very well with your kids for them to do this. You took care of them, and they will take care of you to the end....as it should be. God bless you all.

I just did a calculation of my own (using dimensions of boat and some biophysics), and understand where they are coming from w.r.t 3 days and 72 hours. Numbers/assumptions I used and the results: Pressure hull (using diameter of 6m and an approx 50+m length of cylinder and minimum packing...

Yup, it was both unprofessional and unnecessary, but now damage has been done unfortunately on that front. They should well know how this is picked up by any media (local and world). I see all these headlines in big world news about 72 hours etc....and all implication and insinuation from that...

The turtle woke up in the morning and chose violence! or is it more: If you could kindly stop drinking my bathwater that would be great mmmkay?

Courtesy of USHANKA show: "Best coffee in the soviet union" (imported from India), but does it beat nescafe "tasters choice" today? Find out!: Earlier context (esp in 2nd half of vid): N.B: I personally do not like any instant coffee much at all, must be brewed variety generally.

I believe this is earlier picture of the DSRV (enroute by ship, so will take a week and be too late for alive-crew SAR). This DSRV I believe needs full ship support...even if it can be air-transported. The one being airlifted now is another model I think, and hopefully it has more independent...

They are....its not just a feeling. President Macron just now put out really strong statement to help India in whatever way possible on corona 2nd wave crisis (while US dithers still on crucial vaccine inputs for our manufacturers). I remember France was one of few countries to respect...
