Amici curiae at hand, Senate impeachment court revisits vote threshold

Source of the article: https://newsinfo.inquirer.net/2305551/amici-curiae-at-hand-senate-impeachment-court-revisits-vote-threshold

I think, the 4 amici curiae chosen by the impeachment court -- Artemio Panganiban, Reynato Puno, Hilario Davide Jr., and Adolfo Acuna, would unanimously say, lower down the required number of votes to 10.

What do you guys think?

Advocacy Group: All Social Media & Gaming Accounts Must Require National ID Verification

Advocacy group Digital Pinoys https://digitalpinoys.org/home/ is pushing the government to mandate Philippine National ID verification for all social media and online gaming platforms to aggressively combat cybercrime and fraud. Source: https://www.facebook.com/share/p/18HcvUe9PC/

Meta nga nagpu-push-back, tapos gusto pa, all social media platforms operating in the Philippines. Pero syempre, in the spirit of fairness, kung pinu-push ng gobyerno sa Meta ang policy na 'to, dapat i-push din nila sa iba pang social media platforms operating in the country.

Tingin n'yo?

[Opinyon] Dapat naman talaga may physical office or legal representative present sa bansa ang Meta, atbp malalaking social media companies operating in the PH

Related article: https://bitpinas.com/fintech/dict-urges-meta-national-id/?fbclid=IwY2xjawUMvEVwZG9mBWV4dG4DYWVtAjEwAGJyaWQRMVRpNzFnOE5uMDNVTHptZGRzcnRjBmFwcF9pZBAyMjIwMzkxNzg4MjAwODkyAAEemYwxeVUeT-SeCT6C6Oghr_9HosUBeyOsLkImUfAUeCGPiutAh_1Oj3y5YG0_aem_sv8M2VbMJqM6clHCdq8ZjA

Dapat naman talaga i-require ng gobyerno na magkaroon ng physical office OR legal representative ang Meta atbp social media companies operating in the Philippines, para 'pag may complaint ka sa account mo or sa ad placement, pwede mo silang kasuhan before a government body.

Dapat ma-realize ng gobyerno natin na malaking market ang Facebook atbp social media sa Pinas. Filipino social media users deserve better customer service from these companies.

Opinyon n'yo about this?

Minsan talaga, it's not you. It's the Mod/s. Need mo lang talaga hanapin yung sub na "sync" sa mga posts mo

A Tale of Two Subs talaga. Pasado naman sa Karma requirements ng both subs. Pasado rin sa Posting requirements.

Most of the time talaga, it's a Mod's discretion. Tapos nagtataka pa yung ibang tao bakit need pang gumawa ng similar subs.

Trial and error talaga. Kayo ba, anu-anong subs yung iniiwasan n'yo for some reason?

Raco Ruiz speaking out against weak mobile service signals in malls, in a funny way

Sana nga mag-improve ang mobile service signals sa mga malls na ito... lalo na sa Megamall kung saan ako madalas hehe.

Anu-anong malls pa sa tingin n'yo ang need mag-improve ng mobile signal sa loob ng establishments nila?

Hontiveros open to being opposition’s sole presidential candidate

Tingin ko, hindi pa rin nakaka-recover si Sen Risa Hontiveros sa epekto ng fake news at propaganda versus sa kanya.

Hindi s'ya makakasama sa Top 3 choices for presidential candidate. Feeling ko lang.

Let's list down mga malls na mahina ang signal ni Globe. Basic dapat kasi yan, na 'pag nasa mall, expectation is, malakas ang signal and connectivity.

I'll start: SM Megamall hehe. Taga-Ortigas kasi ako kaya eto ang nearest mall sa 'kin. Hirap gumana ng GCash ko 'pag nasa mall na 'to dahil ang hina ng signal ni Globe.

Let's demand more from these big malls.

Ang pinagmulan ng salitang Yawa, according to The Aswang Project

The author of this website article is Jordan Clark, and it's the result of his 3 year research.

According to him, the Bisayan word yawa (meaning devil, demon, demonyo sa Tagalog), came from the name (or phrase) Nagmalitung Yawa Sinagmating Diwata.

Nagmalitung Yawa is a powerful binukot heroine in the living sugidanon chanting tradition of the Panay Bukidnon. Pero tulad ng mga kwento, nung dumating ang mga Kastila, na-demonized ang diwatang ito at bahagi ng pangalan n'ya naging salita for evil -- Yawa!

Author Jordan Clark actually quoted Professor Felipe Jocano Jr in the GMA News’ 2021 feature “Our Progressive Past” -- "“Even a title like Nagmalitong Yawa became instantly demonic, a work of the devil.”

Here's the source of the article: https://www.aswangproject.com/did-the-spanish-turn-a-visayan-epic-goddess-into-the-word-yawa/

It's a very interesting read. Yung Yawa kasi naririnig ko lang yun online, sa mga online games, sa mga chat. At least now I know more about the word and its origin.
