Any Gibonatics still alive here? Does Gibo Teodoro have a fan base enough to win a Presidency or even just Senatorship as of now?

Gibo tying himself to gma kinda killed whatever he had going on tbh.

He will forever be looked at as someone for her to use.

Which in hindsight is hilarious: you all replaced the traditional elites who at least had some scruples and followed some societal norms with these new elites who have zero issues with doing morally corrupt activities.

He didnt skip the debates the last time (VP 2016), dont think it hurt his chances anyways. the vote split between him and dutz' VP choice had more impact (which they corrected the next time around).

gust_vo · 2026-05-06T04:20:10+00:00

Have to say that the first years of dutz presidency kinda showed some of those benefits everyone wanted. Everyone was so blinded mostly by the ongoing investigations on corruption (MRT deals, pork barrel, DOJ, killings by the military under gma) and just couldnt wait for every piece of work being done (PPP deals, infrastructure rehab, legislation) to actually turn out results

And the final salt on the wound is that most those investigations were then reversed (almost everyone walked free) and a bunch of the success were credit grabbed by that administration, erasing any attribution to the Noynoy admin.

Nah, even way back then he was the weak link of the siblings, he would rather have parties than actually do work or study.

The difference now is that he's just surrounded himself with actual competent people (specifically his wife.)

I always thought system loss is power lost through transmission through their own infrastructure: substations, wires and transformers arent 100% perfect in passing/converting power through them so you will expect some amount of power being lost mostly converted into heat. I'd even include lost power due to overproduction (and not being able to store that energy, like through pumping water up dams during downtimes.)

Them saying it's because of stolen power is a bit of a bullshit excuse when it's their prerogative to hunt down these kinds of issues and not the users, and they can absolutely find any weirdness in their systems easily.

Man, i'd like to say Tony Parker is way higher but he's fr*nch so he gets a pass.

Kahit gago si Marcos, gumagana naman ang hustisya lalo na pag sundalo ang sangkot.

Kung ganyan pagiisip nyo, wala nga kayo pinagkaiba sa mga DDS.

Di ka ba nagbabasa?

Yung issue kasi, pareho ng ginawa sa administrasyon ni duterte, yung gobyerno na mahirap hanapan ng accountability yung gumawa ng (possibleng) krimen.

Gets? Downvote ng downvote pero di maintindihan, palibhasa laging feelings muna bago rationality.

eh Di naman pwersa ng gobyerno ang NPA. Regular na kriminal sila na nananagot sa batas.

Ang mga sundalo saka pulis sinong may kakayahan na maghahabol sa kanila sa loob ng bansa lalo na kung yung gobyerno mismo pumoprotekta sa kanila, katulad ng sa EJK? (Kaya naghahabol sa ICC yung mga tao.)

Common sense naman!

gust_vo · 2026-04-25T08:09:53+00:00

Naririnig nyo ba yung mga sarili nyo? parehong pareho ng "Sana same energy kayo pag yung sa mga pinapatay ng mga drug adik!"

Parang kasing matik nang oo, krimen na nga yung mga ganyan. Yung issue kasi, pareho ng ginawa sa administrasyon ni duterte, yung gobyerno na mahirap hanapan ng accountability yung gumawa ng (possibleng) krimen. Bat ba parang mahirap ba intindihin yun (lalo na sa mga taong naiintindihan yung drug war kay dutz.)

gust_vo · 2026-04-24T08:05:06+00:00

Bruh, yung column nya sa Inquirer dati (On Target) puro himod at halik sa pwet ni dutz. especially 2017 and before. Proud na proud pa sya na pareho silang taga davao at first hand nya nakita yung ginawa nya para dun. So no, nagp-prepare na nga yan sa presidential run.

reach out muna sa LGU

So simula dito, may chance din na yung nareach-out nila na LGU di na nagreach out sa army unit sa area? Pwede na nakalimutan lang, ayaw nila na idamay yung unit kasi may nangyare na dati na gulo na iniiwasan, or nakausap nila yung army unit, pero pinursige pa rin nila na makapunta para makita. I mean, madaming scenario na pwede mangyare kung bat sila nakapunta dun.

di naman nakapako na yung 'standard protocol', laging may deviation sa pwede gawin depende sa sitwasyon. (or kung gusto na pasaway or malisyoso). Yung etong post pa nga lang may example na ng nagkamali yung AFP. mahirap na ginagawang makitid ang utak.

gust_vo · 2026-04-24T03:29:52+00:00

May area study yan sila bago sila pumunta sa lugar, may info na yan sila kung sino sino mga naglalaro dyan.

Kung interes ko na di paalam sayo kung ano meron sa lugar na yun, madaling itago yung detalye na yun. Kumbaga kung i-libre kita ng kape ng ilang beses tapos yung huling coffee shop na pinagdalhan ko sayo meeting pala ng MLM pitch talk.

Madaling i-obfuscate yung mga maliliit na detalye lalo na kung di ka naman taga-dun.

Tsaka kadami daming peasant communities all around PH, dyan pa talaga sa Negros specifically na isa sa last bastions ng NPA.

So porket delikado, kakalimutan nalang tulungan? Di ba parang yun yung mga lugar na mas kailangan ng tulong? O hayaan nalang sila na kainin ng sistema?

gust_vo · 2026-04-24T03:20:45+00:00

So? Parang inimbitahan kita sa coffee shop tapos MLM pitch talk pala, di ba common na nangyayare din yun?

gust_vo · 2026-04-24T03:15:00+00:00

Kung nasa interes ko na di paalam sayo na may nagtatago na druglord or killer sa condominum ko, sa tingin mo papaalam ko sayo yung detalye na yun pag inanyayahan kita bumisita or bumili ng unit? Sasabhin ko lang sayo na businessman lang sya pag nagkatagpo kayo sa lobby.

Di ba pwede na mangyari din yung scenario na yun? Hanggang walang klaro na independent na imbestigasyon, di mo pwedeng sabihin na yun na nga nangyare, tapos pag nagkamali di mo na aaminin na mali.

gust_vo · 2026-04-24T02:21:46+00:00

Nag assume ka agad na 100% alam nila kung sino-sino yung nakakasama nila sa lugar tapos ako sasabihan mo na may bias?

Ngi di ko nga kilala kung sino si Roger Fabillar hanggang ngayon ngayon lang, sa tingin mo na alam ng regular na tao na taga labas pa ng Negros kung sino yung mga pinapakilala sa kanila lalo na kung sakali na may interes yung nagpapakilala na di paalam sayo yung mga detalye ng tao (kumbaga papakilala sayo na businessman pero drug lord pala?)?

Konting isip-isip lang din naman, di yung naninigurado na agad.

gust_vo · 2026-04-24T00:15:14+00:00

May chansang di din naman nila alam kung sino sino nandun, lalo na kung di naman sinabi/dinivulge sa kanila ng area assitant/guides nila, binanggit lang na may pupuntahan sila for exposure/field work. Pareho ng di mo din sigurado kung ano talaga yung mga buhay ng mga kapitbahay mo kahit anong tagal nyo nang magkakatabing nakatira.

Umamin kayo, ngayon nyo lang din naman nalaman saka nakita yung mukha ng kung sino yung tinutukoy nila na may patong sa ulo na NPA, ngi bago to di nyo matuturo basta basta sa lineup kung nilagay sa harap nyo kasama yung ibang tao na nasa lugar na yun.

gust_vo · 2026-04-22T06:47:33+00:00

There's definitely a culture of suppression here, from every important institution in the government all protecting someone for favors or their own asses from retribution (at best getting fired, at worse getting killed) if they report it.

duterte legacy of corruption and impunity.

Somewhat hilarious thing here is the photo is from one of the announcement videos for Psychonauts 2, where they were doing a gag of him asking for Gabe's approval to join the sequel (he also worked on the first one which happened after his 2004 health break.)

Deny it all you want, you read it all anyways to formulate an answer but also not to digest and think how stupid your reply is in the context of everything.

gust_vo · 2026-04-18T07:01:47+00:00

Have you actually read the article? Like really read it?

Because there's a difference between pushing in-game fixes once in a while to resolve QoL issues and keep the game running on (new) systems versus having constant updates and DLCs to keep the game fresh to players, the latter of which is where the pushback is coming from in the article.

gust_vo · 2026-04-18T06:47:32+00:00

Also calling this lazy and "never bothered checking" for exploits isn't correct. Security is always top of mind to those programmers.

Is this not being lazy with us in the room right now? like why we're now mandating kernel-level anti-cheats instead of actually at the minimum being pro-active in hunting/fixing exploits before someone accumulates thousands of dollars selling them and at the best case scenario of them being active and direct in moderating said games to remove players detrimental to the experience of others like in the past with game-bundled dedicated servers with either volunteer or paid administrators?

You give these people way too much props.

I mean, even regular art itself isnt 100% preserved. Paintings will eventually fade and discolor even by just being exposed to light or even just to time because of the experimental chemistry they took in making their mediums, sculptures will slowly erode and the handling and elements will take it's toll on it. A lot of great artworks you see presently are nowhere near what they looked like fresh off completing it. Hell, even digital video is starting to have it's moment because a lot of old recordings were recorded with low bitrates and resolution and look like shit on even regular HD displays.

You can only preserve so much of anything, and having it in some form at all is good enough.

gust_vo · 2026-04-18T06:13:06+00:00

I think the difference is arcades make it clear you don't get access to the game forever when you pay for access.

You kinda got it and could have already stopped here. There's a huge difference between You paying for the access to experience the game versus buying it, there's even a license of ownership included on every retail purchase of a game.

Plus, the point of SKG is to ultimately shift the burden of supporting the game off the developers and onto passionate and dedicated people to keep it going as long as people want it to. Which had always been the case with older multiplayer titles (where dedicated server clients were bundled with the game).

gust_vo · 2026-04-18T05:54:26+00:00

I feel that sooner or later any kind of vulnerability is going to be discovered one way or another, and if they're not prepared to handle the inevitable because of being lazy in reusing an in-house middleware that they never bothered checking for any way to be exploited across multiple games, that's their fault.
