BINI members Maloi from Batangas and Aiah from Cebu challenge each other to guess the meaning of common phrases in their native languages Tagalog (Batangueño dialect) and Cebuano.

Fun to watch and educational.

Tech bros pushing AI on us feels like digital rape. They don't understand consent.

They should all be labeled digital consent offenders.

We don't need another app to install.

When Grab PH bought motorcycle taxi app Move It, I thought I would become a 1st-time customer of that service. I use Grab, so it already has my info. I wouldn't need to sign up and type all my details. How convenient.

But Move It wasn't integrated into the Grab app. Instead, I would have to download a new app.

Bummer. One fewer customer for the company.

@jikodesu huh, strange. In Indonesia Grab already offer motorcycle taxi. It's not like they don't have any experience with it...

@gombang

That's true, and its because the motorcycles are under the Grab brand, while in PHL, it's a different brand.

I only tried motorcycles taxis in Indonesia, because I was advised that's the best way to get around, though I think the Jakarta BRT is awesome if it happens to be close to your origin/destination

Also, because I don't want to register/install another app 😆, just like @jikodesu

Vice Ganda’s entry, captioned "Lagi kitang pipiliin, Pilipinas," that has got the internet abuzz, has gained 4 million views in just 16 hours since posting Saturday night.

One scene takes Vice "to the disputed West Philippine Sea, where she takes on a Chinese vessel's water cannon—a reference to China’s recent worrisome incursions."

The U.S. displaces China as Germany's biggest trading partner. Germany had been urging German companies to decouple from China.

"Combined exports and imports between Germany and the U.S. totaled 63 billion euros ($68 billion) between January and March of 2024, while trade with China came to just below 60 billion euros."

In the PH, the hit song "Pantropiko" was the first song composed by Angelika Sam Ortiz, a film major. Already with 45M streams on Spotify and 16M views on YouTube, the summer-themed song has made PH girl group BINI the most popular P-Pop group in the country, even more popular than SB19 and BGYO.

InDrive to launch in Metro Manila this month. I hope it can compete with Grab, which has a monopoly of the 4-wheel ride hailing market in the PH.

InDrive removed the price haggling feature to comply with the LTFRB

That's good to know. I'll probably try it again soon then.

Volleyball is becoming more popular in the PH. 17,834 fans trooped to the Araneta Coliseum for the PH's PVL semifinals games while 19,505 watched the UST-La Salle women’s Final Four clash at the Mall of Asia Arena.

Meanwhile, the PBA (PH pro men's basketball league) struggles to fill stadiums.

PH tells China to leave Panatag Shoal, also known as Scarborough Shoal, which is a high-tide elevation located just over 120 nautical miles off the coast of Zambales. According to international law, the shoal is within the PH's exclusive economic zone (220 nautical miles).

@jikodesu@mastodon.social avatar

How can economics be a field of science? All sciences are based on the Earth’s (or universe's) natural laws.

How can unlimited economic growth on a finite planet be possible?

Why doesn't wealth accummulated (stolen) by a few rich individuals trickle down to the poor?

Economics is not based on reality, so why is it called a field of science?

Why would I pay for Windows 11 with AI crap I don't want when Linux is free?

Clearly, Microsoft has not thought this through.
