    Good morning guys, I don’t have Facebook anymore so just wanna ask if Threads and Egg Party(which PaoLUL played) is popular right now?

      Threads is becoming popular among users because of Twitter’s reading limits implemented by Musk. However, there are other users switching to alternatives like Blue Sky and Mastodon.

      I sometimes wonder if desalination is a viable solution to our water problems.

      But then again, it might be more cost-effective to just build more dams to store water during the rainy season.

    Meta’s ‘friendly’ Threads collides with unfriendly internet

    “If an account or server, or if we find many accounts from a particular server, is found violating our rules then they would be blocked from accessing Threads, meaning that server’s content would no longer appear on Threads and vice versa,” she said.

    “With federation, the metadata that big platforms use to tie accounts to a single actor or detect abusive behavior at scale aren’t available,” said Stamos. “This is going to make stopping spammers, troll farms, and economically driven abusers much harder.”

    I like how Meta (and an ex-Meta) is framing interoperability with the fediverse that they are the ones that’s potentially going to be the problem, lol.

          Ah. HAHAHAHAHAH! No one’s willing to make that joke, huh?


          Edit:

          Nvm. Someone actually made the joke:

          The MMDA article and now a MILF article? I’m starting to think CNN’s Filipino branch is trolling us with their choice of acronyms.

    I decided to deactivate my Threads account. Yes, I know it’s still there and I can’t delete it. But at least it’s away from public view.

    Nakakairita how the influencers/celebrities inorganically generate engagement by posting dumb questions… which then gets recommended to me. Balik Mastodon na lang ako where it’s peace and quiet.

      On the fence with deactivating threads, as (thankfully) influencers haven’t spilled over their junk content threads onto mine.

      But with the fediverse coming extremely close to threads, i might deactivate soon without even so much of a “hello who’s there” post on threads lmao

    Normal ba na agawan ng isang 13 yr old na agawan at itago ang mga laruan ng 2 yr old? Pag may bagong toy kasi ung kapatid nya, sinisira, tinatago o naagaw nung kapatid nyang 13 yr old.

      Ah, oh. You need to give the talk. If you can talk to your thirteen year old in a way na hinde accusatory or pagalit.

      Is is possible that she/he/they need attention, and maybe talk it out?

    Crossposted from the orangered place:

    It seems many of my workmates have resigned for greener pastures. Parang gusto ko nang mag-resign sa current ko dahil mababa yung binigay na salary increase recently. I’ve been looking for other jobs sa ibang companies, pero not sure kung saan ang better. Baka i-lowball nila ako sa offer hehehe

    I’m really not used to working on my supposed day off, I’m feeling so lazy and unproductive at work right now. And I’m not particularly motivated to work on a good day lol.
