The hashtag #BanTikTok has started to gain momentum in the #Philippines because of the recent muting/silencing of a renowned journalist's coverage of the West Philippine Sea issue. Which in turn also revealed that a music video / campaign of a local celebrity regarding WPS was also muted earlier.

See: https://twitter.com/inquirerdotnet/status/1797805477339820287

Hopefully, this is the spark we are waiting for to get this Communist China-controlled service banned in the country.

Unfortunately, one user shared a photo of a news report on how the DICT (Department of Information and Communications Technology) said that we should be careful with banning apps as these are simply technologies, and small businesses are using it.

See: https://twitter.com/MulatTayo/status/1797852740254937400

> ANC: The DICT asserts it needs to be careful in supporting a ban on social media apps, esp. since they benefit small businesses.
>
> DICT: Let's not single out a particular app. This is just tech. There are evils in it, but there are also good things in it.

It was a poor attempt to deflect the question. Why? The topic was not about the technology, it was about banning [highly questionable] social media apps. There is a huge difference between technologies and services.

The public is not asking to ban the technologies behind “short form videos”. The people of the Philippines are demanding to ban a service.

Is there a color “Cable No.” conversion table or online tool available?

I've been checking sites and search engines but I cannot any. Maybe someone have a bookmark or something.

I need to convert the following:

  • Cable No. 80173
  • Cable No. 80108
  • Cable No. 80068

The confusing thing is that Wikipedia and various flag websites provide different RGB Hex codes:

  • 0038A8 vs 0032A0
  • CE1126 vs BF0D3E
  • FCD116 vs FED141

Which is more accurate, Wikipedia or the flag websites?

Taguig City should rename #Lawton Ave to #Gerónimo Ave.

See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Ware_Lawton#Philippine%E2%80%93American_War

  1. Lawton fought against Filipinos
  2. “Attacked” Emilio Aguinaldo multiple times
  3. General Gerónimo was the Filipino sharpshooter who shot him

Unless they want to honor him as the:

  1. only US general to be killed during the Philippine–American War

  2. highest ranking American officer to fall in battle in either the Spanish–American or Philippine–American Wars

  3. first US general killed in overseas action

#Philippines #Taguig #Pilipinas #FortBonifacio @pilipinas @philippines

I have nothing against him. There are meanings behind road names, and “Lawton Ave” is not a positive meaning since the US transferred control of the camp to the Philippines.

The camp was originally known as “Fort William McKinley”. It was established in 1901 during the Philippine-American War.

Henry Ware Lawton was killed during the Philippine-American War, and thus, it is understandable it was named after him.

However, after the war and the occupation of the , the connection of the name started to, allow me to say, “degrade”.

By 1949-05-14, the US officially transferred control of the camp to the Philippines, and it was renamed to “Fort Bonifacio”, in honour of the hero, war veteran, first revolutionary general, and the founder of , Gat Andres Bonifacio.

This effectively and logically changed the meaning of “Lawton Ave”. It is no longer about Lawton's achievements, as that was from the American perspective.

From the Filipino perspective, “Lawton Ave” means:

  1. Mortal enemy #1
  2. Multiple failed attacks against President Emilio Aguinaldo.
  3. First and only US General killed during the Philippine-American War
  4. Highest ranking American officer killed in both the Spanish-American and Philippine-American wars
  5. First US general killed in overseas action

As a human being, those are definitely not a good way to honor someone, regardless if they were an enemy or not.

Imagine this, a Filipino tour guide explaining the history of Fort Bonifacio and they're on a bus traversing Lawton Ave. Do you think a Filipino guide will only mention how Lawton was a hero, especially when he was only a hero from the eyes of the Americans?

It is only very important to rename Lawton Ave in Fort Bonifacio to Gerónimo Ave.

  1. General Gerónimo was the Filipino sharpshooter who fell General Lawton.

  2. We should honor General Gerónimo for valiantly facing a battle where the infamous (Filipino perspective) General Lawton was in the midst of it.

  3. In addition, it will be the Filipino people's final honor to General Henry Ware Lawton. Though he was an enemy of the Filipino people, he still deserves respect as a soldier and as a human being.

Renaming his namesakes is an act of respect and honor. We should not remember him as an enemy, no matter his personal disposition for/against the Filipino people. He was a soldier. He did his job. He fell on duty during the war.

A weird thing about the global #Naver #Whale browser is they forgot to include Naver search in the search engine selection. ^^ It doesn't have to be the default, but at least include it. ^~

  1. I found a way to write the #Filipino leading sound /ŋ/ (Ng̃) in #Hangeul by “reviving” an obsolete Jamo.

(NOTE: the samples below are using the Pilipino Hangeul [work-in-progress] adaption/rules.)

Ex:

  • ᅌᅡ욘 (nga·yon) = EN: today
  • ᅌᅵ삔 (ngi·pin) = EN: tooth
  1. I also separated (R) and (L), like how they did in the #Ciacia language.

Same character: ᄙ

Ex:

  • 빠다ᄙᅡᆺ닷 (pa·ta·las·tas) = EN: commercial
  • ᄙᅡ밧 (la·bas) = EN: outside; go out (depending on usage)
  1. I was thinking of using another obsolete Jamo (ᅏ) for the /t͡s/ (Ts) sound, but ㅊ /t͡ɕʰ/ (Ch) can fulfill that role as well.

Ex:

  • 차차 (cha·cha) = short form of “charter change”; or the dance chacha.
  • 초꼬라데 (tso·ko·la·te) = EN: chocolate
  • 차아 (tsa·a) = EN: tea
  1. Ññ (enye) is, for now, transliterate.

  2. For the Kr sound, like in “krus”, maybe we can use ㅋ since we don't have a /kʰ/ (Kh) sound in Filipino.

  3. Vowels like Filipino “Ee” which can be either /ɛ/ (ae) or /e/ (e).

This one is tricky because the Filipino “Ee” sound can change depending on, for example, a person want to deliver a word with endearment, but the meaning never changes. So an /e/ sound can become an /ɛ/ sound, while retaining its meaning.

I actually had no idea about this “Ee” /e/ (e) vs /ɛ/ (ae). The way Filipino vowels are taught in school is simply, well, /e/ (e). But the more I read online resources, the more I learn that we do make an /ɛ/ (ae) sound for the same vowel! How crazy is that?!

Anyway…

Trending in the : Most confusing mall.

a. SM North / SM West
b. Trinoma
c. Alabang Town Center (a.k.a. ATC)
d. Glorietta
e. Robinson's Galleria (a.k.a. Galle)
f. Robinson's Place Manila/Ermita

Within my own circles, we agree that the most confusing are Trinoma > ATC > Robinson's Galleria > Robinson's Place Manila, in that order.

SM Malls, at least those they designed directly (not bought), are mostly generic. (Note: SM Mall of Asia, still the largest mall in the Philippines & 6th in the world, is currently confusing because of the major on-going overhaul.)

Ironically, Ayala-owned malls are generally confusing, with the exception of Glorietta (the layout is like a spiderweb). Trinoma and ATC are both Ayala-owned.

How about you? What do you think is the most confusing mall(s) for you?

Another unique(?) trope in land is this:

When a character is about to reveal something important, like their true identity, they will be interrupted with either:

  1. An emergency.
  2. They're summoned by someone higher.

While researching the history, I stumbled upon the federated SNS timeline: https://im.youronly.one/techmagus/kb/ddfon/federated-social-network-timeline-2022346/ by @youronlyone

Quite comprehensive resource! I will look into adding The Appleseed Project, One Social Web, and Tent.

@youronlyone@c.im avatar

@jnv Thank you!

There is a repo available here:

https://codeberg.org/ddfon/federated-sns

There are other pending ones in the issues that I haven't worked on. But, other than those, yes, PRs are welcome!


I've forgotten about The Appleseed Project and One Social Web! Since the list is about federated SNS (and not specifically the fediverse/ActivityPub), I'm also considering adding BlueSky/ATproto (especially now there are bridges like Bridgy).

In any case, it's an attempt to find the links and relevant information, and then archive them, so it's easy to find them if someone needs it. ^_^

BridgyFed for the Fediverse should post as threads if the post exceeds 300 characters. Now it just truncates 500 char posts and people have no idea about the rest of it without any link or context. I know it’s early, but this would be great. @snarfed.org@snarfed.org

A lot of people have insisted isn't getting involved with the to embrace, extend and extinguish it...

... but even before fully implementing Fediverse interoperability in they're already talking openly about changing its protocols to add features like monetization. 🤔

https://techcrunch.com/2024/04/25/why-meta-is-looking-to-the-fediverse-as-the-future-for-social-media/

Text in a screenshot reads as follows: McCue riffed on the idea that fediverse users could become creators where some of their content became available to subscribers only, similar to how Patreon works. For instance, fediverse advocate and co-editor of ActivityPub Evan Prodromou created a paid Mastodon account (@evanplus) that users could subscribe to for $5 per month to gain access. If he’s on board with paid content, surely others would follow. Cottle agreed that the model could work with the fediverse, too. He additionally suggested there are ways the fediverse could monetize beyond donations, which is what often powers various efforts today, like Mastodon. Cottle said someone might even make a fediverse experience that consumers would pay for, the way some fediverse client apps are paid today.

youronlyone,
@youronlyone@c.im avatar

@vetehinen So, basically, both Threads and Mastodon are in it together? Which means, the rest of the fediverse software with quote-posts already, will be forced to implement the Threads+Mastodon method?

How cool is it that @cliffwade is:

  • A fediverse admin.
  • A CS specialist of @novalauncher (my favourite launcher. I'm a pro and beta user for years! Highly recommended Android launcher!)
  • And a fan of Richard Garriott's series (check their profile banner - Ultima 4 opening sequence? I think a later version of U4.)

Someone playing Ultima is a good sign that the Nova Launcher's CS team is in good hands. Role-players can understand a customer, and can think far ahead, thus they can improve the processes.
