Sorry if this OOT. I've seen you replied with "Done!" a few times now and and I see the OP mention you.

What exactly happening here? Approval so other instances can see it ? I'm not up to speed with fedi mechanics.

Stuffing corpses full of shit and pain.

They bloviate about a future beyond the moon. To bring about another planet's doom

To discover peaceful life and beat our war-drum to its tune Unless my prayers are answered

Our end is coming soon.

Protest the Hero - Sequoia Throne

The rest of their discography is fantastic, but their lyrics in this album which penned by their former bass player is just another league.

CopyParty is amazing. I also use https://localsend.org/, for one off transfer. Pretty easy to set up if you didn't have complicated firewall.

How is khlatak different? It's lamb/mutton meat, chunkier cut. Usually serve with gulai (idk curry soup) I'm much prefer this one than Padang but that's just my biased palate (Padang located on Sumatra Island)

I actually went to the house of raminten the other day, if you scroll back a few posts you can see the bamboo chicken I posted!

Oh I missed that ! Haven't went there myself and it's been years since I visit Yogja.

That's the second time somebody had told me about bakpia, should I look for it in bakeries or roti shops?

Nah, it's everywhere especially around Malioboro, there's a bunch of dedicated gift shop and you can shop other snacks while there.

Just asked around for it or google "bakpia pathok" it sold in a box and different brands don't differ that much.

I think it started with mung bean/red bean but there's a bunch of other fillings like cheese, chocolate, cappuccino etc. Philippines called it Moon Cake iirc.

I've had kwetiau, mi goreng, cumi and udang cabe garam, siumai, other types of sate, all sorts of stuff, I love exploring a country through its food.

There's "Soto Sampah" (Garbage Soups) there which pretty popular, it will be standard soup anywhere else but they decided to give it a funny name there.

I like walking around in the rain anyway

Man, I've had enough with the rain, I miss sunshine. It's been flooding everywhere and also destroys the road. Well its par for the course, I guess.

Cool, nice island! It's pretty hot for me, but I prefer much colder weather as a baseline. More than the heat though, the humidity is so heavy it feels like I'm swimming through the air.

Figure, though I have no reference how dry air actuality feels since it's pretty much humid all year round.

There was actually an earthquake about 30 minutes ago here!

I didn't even know that, the news says it's pretty mild.

I like it! Monsoon season is my favorite season. Plus the people here have been so kind, it's been a really positive trip so far.

Glad to hear that, the general consensus is we're pretty friendly toward foreigner.

Got any food recommendations?

What have you tried?

The usual suspects for Yogyakarta is :

  • Gudeg (Slow cooked Jackfruit, sweet/savory) Gudeg Pawon is the famous one.
  • Sate Klathak ( Satay, griilled meat )the famous one is Pak Bari (Mr Bari) or Pak Pong
  • Bakmi (noodles)
  • The House of Raminten, local legend serve pretty much everything
  • Angkringan, IDK how to describe this one, maybe it's like Izakaya
  • Bakpia, some kinda biscuit.

Neat. How's the heat ? Am local, or at least on the same island. It's a wet season so I guess not that hot ?

I read all that and end up still not knowing what his actual name was :(

[–] gajahmada@awful.systems 14 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

You take that back! Now Dipshit on the other hand..

[–] gajahmada@awful.systems 4 points 4 weeks ago

Protest The Hero - All Hands great song about the tragedy.

Or at least don't say afterward that I told you to do it

I've look around the reaction a bit, seems like a mess in production and I think not surprising for OG title. I'll get back to it later I guess.

Any other recs?
