I'm genuinely curious, which region of the #Philippines is "ube" pronounced as "ooo-bay"?

I've always heard it as /ū-bè/. 🧐

It's about time to close some of the original Green Line (LRT-1) stations to improve travel time & timing.

Quirino Station no doubt have the least traffic & income. 5th Ave, Carriedo, Bambang, UN, Abad Santos are candidates too

I saw this from the Viva La Dirt League production «ADHD + Me». What do you think?

@invicticide You'll have to look for the Feed called "OnlyPosts", or create your own, to remove replies and reshares. What I haven't found yet is how to also block quotes.

E06 of «Brewing Love» («취하는 로맨스» (chwihaneun romaenseu (lit. «Drunk Romance»))) was kilig to the max.

I'm #Forever28 but I'm a #HopelessRomantic this was good source for kilig moments. 😅 Don't rush this episode!

@guinan So very true. Even if you block the server on the moderation side, the reports aren't closed. The only way is to open the site on federation section, manually select accounts that looks spam, and mass suspend. Then back to reports and see if there were left overs.

@gila Yep. Pano is good and well maintained. It keeps on improving too, new features I never thought I'd use but ending up using it. 🙂

Now that the typhoons are gone, #Amihan has arrived. The cold North-East winds from Japan and Korea are now freely blowing our way, #Philippines.

🚨 Send aid to those affected by the 6 typhoons. Blankets! Heaters! Food! Water! It's going to get really cold soon.

I still prefer #PanoScrobbler for #Android as it can #Scrobble to:

#LibreFm
#GnuFm (self-hosted)
#Pleroma (Fediverse)
#Maloja (self-hosted)
#Listenbrainz (including self-hosted)
#LastFm
and export to a file.

Aside from the usual features like widgets and collage.

I found this #Scrobbler app for #Android called "Finale". The unique feature that I like with it is integration with #Strava (though one way only).

**Did I watch a theatre play or a TV drama?**

What a masterpiece. «Jeongnyeon: The Star Is Born» («정년이») gave us an unforgettable finale, and Kim Taeri (김태리), Shin Yeeun (신예은), and Woo Davi (우다비) absolutely delivered. These three? My absolute favourites.

Here's why it stood out:

1. The editing? Flawless.
2. They filmed the theatre scenes as if it was a real performance. It didn’t just feel authentic—it _was_ authentic.
3. Every scene mattered. No fluff, no fillers. Just storytelling that hits hard.
4. They focused on what’s real: the relationships, the struggles, the rawness of being an actor, singer, or dancer. It wasn’t just about glitz and glamour. It was blood, sweat, and tears.

Now, about that finale. If you’re going to watch it, do it right. Big screen. Full volume. No distractions. It felt so much like a real theatre experience I caught myself clapping with the fictional audience, tearing up, and giving them a standing ovation.

Honestly, I don’t know if I just watched «Jeongnyeon» or an actual stage play. That’s how good it was.

100 over 10 stars to the cast, crew, writer, and everyone who brought this story to life. And a huge salute to every artist out there who pours their soul into their craft. You are seen. You are celebrated.

@okpierre.bsky.social If the older and more mature "Nomadic" identity was included in ActivityPub, there won't be such an issue. In fact, it's superior than ATproto's.

Nomadic:
1. You have control where your identity and content exists.
2. It respects account & content permissions.
3. Your content is duplicated live on the servers _you_ have chosen.
4. If your primary instance goes down temporarily, just use the other servers and continue where you left off.
5. If your primary instance goes down permanently, just pick one of your chosen servers and continue as usual after making it your primary.

No export/import. You retain complete control where your account/content lives. If your servir goes down, just continue as usual in another server.

You can see it in action or test it in any #Hubzilla (FLOSS licensed) and #Streams (Public Domain) instance. When ActivityPub 2.0 implements it, the Fediverse will have a superior account portability feature than ATproto or anyone else. 😉

@mvexel If you're in the "Discover" feed, the "Discover" algo still doesn't know you so it'll show random things. At least that's how it was explained by someone.

What you see from the "public" (local + federated in the fediverse network) depends on the feed you are using, as that's where the algorithms are.

For example, I have a Feed called "Filipino 🇵🇭 Philippines". It is based on a userlist of Filipinos I'm maintaining + keywords (RegEx) related to the Philippines. It also only shows original posts (no replies & quote posts), plus, I'm filtering out NSFW based on the default Bluesky moderation algo + my own RegEx-based filters to make it usable for the everyone.

Combined, that's the algorithm of the "Filipino 🇵🇭 Philippines" feed.

Other users can subscribe to it, and pin it as a tab so they can easily switch to it. Or, rearrange their penned feeds so it is the default instead of "Discover", up to them.

If they want to change the algo, users can fork it.

There are a lot of topics discussed on The ATmosphere network that are not shown in the "Discover" feed. One can fork it too and create their own "Discover" feed algorithm to suit it to their preferences.

Basically, per my experience, you won't see the topics you like unless (1) you follow the right people and Feeds where those you follow are included in its algorithm; and (2) use the right Feeds for you.

It's why you'll see people with a very high Following count but very low Followers. Those usually are the ones with who created their own feed that is based on their Following. They use their own algorithms to only see the content they want from the people they're Following, instead of seeing everything.

November 2024 will go down in history as the month when the #Philippines, or more exactly Northern and Central Luzon (and part of Bicol down South got the bulk of rains), were hit by 6 typhoons in the span of 20 days. (Assuming there won't be another after the incoming 6th.)

Did the #US #AQI change their computation or something? Why is it now getting higher towards "unhealthy" in the evening and weekends, but lower (healthy) during the day? 😅

At this rate, #CN AQI is more reliable.

Well, it really is high US AQI (low in CN AQI), or really bad #AirQuality .

I wish the #Philippines government mandate #PAGASA to also report on Air Quality. I don't know why we suddenly have these crazy high AQI, evening at that.

@HamiltonNe32 Welcome to the Fediverse network!

If you also like your qccount to appear on the ATmosphere network (Bluesky server and related), my follow recommendation is @bsky.brid.gy 🙂 You should be able to follow users from there too.

The most annoying part of being a moderator, GameMaster, Community Manager, Customer Support, is seeing a wall of text. 😅 You have to read it carefully to determine if it's legit or spam. 🙃
