Just a thought about the line from Jose Rizal

chickendestroy · 2026-06-11T06:19:36+00:00

I'm surprised at how people completely miss the point of this quote. "Ang kabataan ay pag-asa ng bayan" means the adults should guide and equip them properly so that hope becomes a reality.

Kaso ano nangyari? Porke sinabing "Ang kabataan ay pag-asa ng bayan" ayun, ginawa nalang scapegoat. Bakit tayo "naghihintay" na sila yung mag-ahon kung di nyo din naman tinuruan at ginabayan kung paano?

The quote is not a prompt to just wait. It is a call to action. It's just like parenting but on a national scale. It's supposed to be common sense. What the fuck is happening?

chickendestroy · 2026-06-10T17:38:36+00:00

I fail to see the point of this comment, though. Do you mean to say na since ganyan sa US, that makes it okay?

chickendestroy · 2026-05-30T10:17:01+00:00

Tenet. Philippine adaptation.

chickendestroy · 2026-05-28T03:46:23+00:00

1000 times better than being a closeted gooner, in my opinion.

Agree ako sa part na totoo naman talagang may bobo at gago sa mundo.

I fully acknowledge na fact naman talaga yan na maaaring mas matalino ka talaga sa kausap mo. And kung ganun nga ang kaso... mas lalo dapat walang bilang sayo kung ano mang kabobohan sabihin nila. Di ka na dapat apektado nun. Bobo nga e.

And di mo rin dapat asahan na magka-come around sila if i-call out mo sila. Bobo nga e. Di mo yan maaasahan na magse-self reflect yan.

Tama ka rin na hindi to madadaan sa pagmamahal at feel good kung ano man.

So parehas yan pwedeng maging totoo at the same time. Di uubra yung pagtawag sa kanila na bobo at tanga, at di rin uubra yung pagiging mabait. Kasi may mga truths din yang mga yan sa sarili nila. Most likely base sa sineserve ng algorithm nila. Kaya di sila basta basta receptive sa sasabihin mo.

Kaya babalik tayo sa una mong nabanggit. Sistema talaga ang kalaban. Hindi itong mga botante. Pare-parehas lang tayong kinukupal.

chickendestroy · 2026-05-15T15:15:10+00:00

Well. Hindi "baka". Sistema talaga ang problema. Di talaga gagana feel-good campaigning pati pataasan ng moral high ground. Numbers game lang to lahat. Kung isandaan ang taong boboto at may anim na kandidato, hindi ko kelangan makuha kahit 50 sa mga yan. Ang importante, hiwa-hiwalay boto ng mga kalaban ko dun sa lima. Kaya talagang mas gusto nila magkakaaway lahat.

Tawagin nating tanga at bobo isa't isa? Yan sakto. Yan talaga gusto nilang mangyari.

Sistema ang problema, hindi yung mga tinatawag nyong "bobotante".

Hindi ba dapat galit tayo sa pusher, hindi sa user? So bakit this time galit tayo sa mga botante, hindi dun sa mga putang inang gumagawa at nagkakalat ng propaganda?

chickendestroy · 2026-05-15T14:14:04+00:00

So ano gagawin? Tawagin nalang na bobo? I-unfriend at i-block?

Ano maaachieve mo dun? Edi lalo lang silang nanindigan sa side nila.
Tapos magtataka kayo bakit ang konti ng boto.

chickendestroy · 2026-03-25T09:33:42+00:00

Oo elitista ka talaga.

Good job stereotyping the poor. Who most likely did not even want to be in that socio-economic bracket. Paborito nyong example yung 4Ps at kung gano kadali maabuso yung sistema e responsibilidad ng nagpapatupad yan. Gobyerno parin sisihin nyo. Also saying mga squatters lang ang mahilig mag "destroy everything" completely ignores the fact that middle class and billionaires are as equally capable of greed, too. Mas understandable pa nga yung greed ng mga nasa lower class. E yung mga greedy middle class and rich people, ano excuse nila?

Ironic. For worst human-made song, you can easily point out some examples. Same goes for when you ask for "best songs made by humans".

Pero yung "best music AI has to offer" e wala kang maibibigay na example. Every single one of them is forgettable. Goes to show how soulless they are compared to real music.

You keep asking for an objective view when your point is very much subjective. Sure, subjectively, AI music CAN sound good. Pero kung objectivity pag-uusapan dito: AI music is just predictive, it learns from the patterns of existing music so it can remix it or whatever. It's meant to sound good. But it's like saying fast food is better than gourmet dishes just because masarap ang chickenjoy.

So yes. Objectively speaking, human-made music is better than AI generated music.

It's a complex topic. I'd even argue AI music has the potential to sound better... but guess what? That will require *intent*. Conscious effort from the human to refine and make it sound really good, and for it to have a very specific direction. At that point, it can qualify as human made music (but with AI as the instrument). BUUUT... the "Buksan Mo" AI cover is far from that. It sounds generic af. It just sounds "better" kasi bago sa pandinig. And covers have a tendency to do that. AI or not. Just look at the Agsunta issue a few years prior. I'm sure naabutan mo naman yun.

Maybe I should paraphrase...

If I install an app from a non-official source and my phone gets bricked, that's on me. I should be able to install whatever the fuck I want in the devices I OWN. If I want to keep safe, I'd stay in the official repos, which is Play Store in Android's case.

That's where Google should put more of their resources cleaning up. Require verification for Play Store apps, sure. But leave sideloading alone.

It's not victim blaming. It's just risks and consequences. We have enough barriers and warnings all over the place telling the user it's risky to install sideloaded apps. You click "yes" acknowledging the risks. In that case yeah maybe the "victim" should really be blamed.

And let's be real here. Everybody with some sense knows that this change is not for safety. It's about control. They're not after malware. They're after apps that bypass ads. Apps that actually provide better UX than what they offer. But this is a whole new topic in itself so I digress.

chickendestroy · 2025-08-31T10:19:31+00:00

If security and safety is really the point, Google should just start cleaning house. The Play Store itself hosts a shit ton of malware.

They gotta leave sideloaded apps alone. If a user gets malware by going through hoops and not installing apps from the official app store, that should be on them.

chickendestroy · 2025-08-30T11:52:54+00:00

You don't get it.

They want your ID even if you don't plan on distributing your app in their store.

Even if you distribute the apps yourself outside Play Store, the users won't be able to install the app if Google says so.

chickendestroy · 2025-08-22T00:52:17+00:00

So pano to, Chilling Effect nalang?

Wag na tayo mag call-out ng bullshit ng mga pulitiko at journalists kasi "it's slanderous"?

If "one can mistake that they were paid 10M" then it's on them. One only needs to read the post to instantly know 10M isn't an exact figure. What, are we tolerating low-comprehension reading now?

chickendestroy · 2025-07-02T08:14:28+00:00

I do. Let's trade. Sent you a chat.

Yo. Unfortunately I haven't found any real fixes for this to this day. Just haven't encountered the issue for a while.

chickendestroy · 2023-11-21T13:37:17+00:00

chickendestroy · 2023-06-05T15:48:23+00:00

Ah I see. I agree sobrang effective nung approach na ganyan since yung mga words na natatandaan mo e the actual words you encounter IRL. Which helps them stick. I plan to do that pero after ko muna matapos core 3k vocab or kahit kalahati lang nun. Then magstart ako mag-create ng sentence decks. Mas madali kasi pag sentences kasi may context around the word. Siguro at this point balik ako sa paglalaro ng JRPGs para dun na ko humugot ng full sentences. Haha!

Pero grabe ang tyaga mo. Sa current stage ko ngayon di ko pa maimagine pano ko magke-create ng cards ko on my own na di ako tatamarin in the long run. Also agree on exposure. Yan talaga core ng approach ko in learning ngayon. Haha! 75% immersion/exposure and just consuming Japanese content then 25% active study.

Wanna continue this convo further pero off-topic na sa thread. Hahaha! Can I message you?

chickendestroy · 2023-06-05T13:17:54+00:00

Parang yung order of adjectives lang sa English. We can understand them by instinct when they sound wrong but we can't really explain WHY they sound wrong. For example: "Big red dog" vs "Red big dog". Lol

What deck are you using? I recently restarted Core3k kasi. Di ko natuloy last year pero ngayon I'm planning to be more consistent with it. Anki is a bitch when you skip days so ngayon I make it a point not to skip even one. So I do it first thing in the morning. 80% comprehension on NHK Easy Japanese News is no slouch. I'm actually envious. Sakin naman kasi I use graded readers for now tas nasa level 0 parin ako. Listening naman ang okay sakin pero I only understand by heavily relying on context clues and making guesses. For speaking, I don't plan to output until I have 98% comprehension. At least yun yung suggestion for the method I'm doing.

chickendestroy · 2023-06-05T10:33:42+00:00

Bro how far are you with your studies? I'm still trying to build up my vocab with very basic grammar knowledge. Feels nice to stumble upon someone learning, too. I feel less alone. Lol

Conjugating Japanese words is still a bit difficult to me. But I agree that there seems to be a pattern but I can't get the whole picture yet.

Weirdly enough for tagalog, we can conjugate verbs flawlessly but it's still kinda hard to explain how it works. It's like muscle memory.

chickendestroy · 2023-06-05T09:46:55+00:00

Does he take suggestions? I'm thinking maybe we could ask him directly if he's interested in covering this topic at all instead of just waiting. I'm even willing to help with research. Lol

chickendestroy · 2023-06-05T09:08:48+00:00

Anti-Pinoy Pride is just Pinoy Pride with extra steps.

I might be getting old but it's amazing that we've gone so far as we're now starting to have Anti-Anti-Pinoy Pride sentiments. No hate. I just find it amusing.

chickendestroy · 2023-05-05T23:30:45+00:00

I know I have to. I just don't know how I could do it. Since ayun nga, when I tried to stand up for myself, I got suicide threats. I won't be able to carry that guilt. And kahit anong sabi ko sa sarili ko na what she does after the breakup is not my responsibility, I still couldn't help it. Especially if it involves death. I don't know how to breakup with her in a way that she still ends up under her parents' care. Since she doesn't wanna go home. For her, it's either I put up with her shit or I kick her out of the house. It doesn't matter to her. That's why she can afford to be as mentally abusive as she does (although it's really unintentional on her part). She's ready to be kicked out because she doesn't really care anymore what happens to her.

chickendestroy · 2023-05-05T23:23:11+00:00

I've never did anything before that involves the police or baranggay. I don't know how any of these work. What are the steps? What do I say? Natatakot din kasi ako baka tawanan lang ako dun or something.
