China and the United Nations jointly build a data center
The CCP’s investment in data collection has increased in recent years, and its reach has continued to extend to the world. As China’s status in the United Nations has improved, the two sides have cooperated on projects one after another. Recently, the news that China will cooperate with the United Nations to establish a data center has aroused concerns from the outside world. Some media have described that the Chinese government is expanding its surveillance network through substantial funding to the United Nations. “To support the United Nations in playing a central role in international affairs, I announce: China will establish the United Nations Global Geographic Information Knowledge and Innovation Center and the International...
Pinay model, napagkakamalang Korean celebrity
Tulad ng maraming Pinay, mahilig din si Cher Calpo sa K-pop group at K-drama. At nang mapasok niya ang mundo ng pagmomodelo, naisipan niyang gayahin ang mga paborito niyang Korean celebrities. Sa episode ng "Kapuso Mo, Jessica Soho" nitong Linggo, sinabing lumaki sa mahirap na pamilya si Cher sa Zamboanga. Nang mawalan ng trabaho ang kaniyang ama at naging labandera ang ina, naranasan daw nila noon ang mag-ulam ng asin, mantika, at bagoong. Kaya malaking bagay para kay Cher ang mapasok ang mundo ng pagmomodelo nang makaluwas siya ng Maynila. Pero napansin ni Cher na mas maraming proyekto ang mga mas magaganda kaya nangutang siya para mas pagandahin ang kaniyang hitsura at ginawang peg ang kaniyang Korean idol, pati na sa pananamit...
Miss Manila reposts memes of herself telling Miss Universe PH panel: "Wait, kailangan ko huminga.
Nabigo man si Miss Manila City Alexandra Abdon na masungkit ang Miss Universe Philippines 2020 crown, tagumpay naman siya pagdating sa netizens na ginawan siya ng mga meme at spoof. Si Alexandra ay 25-year-old pageant newbie mula sa Sampaloc, Manila. Tumatak si Miss Manila sa mga masugid na sumubaybay sa pageant dahil sa kanyang performance sa preliminary Q&A ng Miss Universe Philippines 2020. Sa portion na iyon, sampung tanong ang ibinabato sa kandidata para subukin ang galing nito sa pagsagot sa loob ng 30 segundo sa bawat katanungan. Layunin ding makita rito kung kaya ba ng kandidatang ma-sustain ang composure nito kahit under pressure. Sa kaso ni Miss Manila, animo'y katropa lang niya ang mga panelista nang harapin ang...
Sino'ng pumatay kay baby River?
EDIT: When I read some comments and see people laughing, I can't help but say that this administration, and you all who laugh and defend the indefensible are a disgrace for humanity 🤮 Sinong pumatay kay baby River? 'Yan ang malaking palaisipan, habang tinitingnan natin ang mga larawan ni Reina Mae Nasino na naka-handcuff, at hindi man lang pinayagang mayakap ang anak sa huling pagkakataon. Sa ilalim ng PPE, hindi man lang niya mapunasan ang kanyang luha. Dumampi lamang ang kamay niyang nakaguwantes sa salamin ng kabaong ni baby River. Walang-pusong mga institusyon? Nasagasaan si baby River ng sistema ng hustisyang walang pagmamalasakit sa isang sanggol. Ito ang sistemang walang pasilidad na mag-alaga sa kalusugan ng isang babaeng...

Kris Bernal learns how to cook, edit videos during quarantine
A lot of people admit to learning new things during these times of the COVID-19 pandemic. For Kapuso actress Kris Bernal, acquiring new skills has helped her a lot, especially those that have something to do with her business and housekeeping. Bernal answered some questions from her fans and subscribers in her latest YouTube vlog, posted on Sept. 2. Her boyfriend, businessman Perry Choi, joined her in the episode. When asked about what new skills she learned during the pandemic, Bernal said “a lot.” “Marunong na akong mag-video editing ng mga vlog ko so nakatipid ako doon,” she started off. (I already know how to edit my vlogs so I was able to save on that.) She also learned how to cook, something she’s grateful for because it was...
Korina says bye to ABS-CBN
Isa nanamang Kapamilya newscaster ang umalis kasunod ni Ted Failon. Pormal nang nagpaalam sa ABS-CBN si Korina Sanchez. Sa kanyang Instagram post kagabi, September 16, inihayag ni Korina ang kanyang pangungulila sa nagsarang network. Literal na sa ABS-CBN umikot ang malaking bahagi ng buhay at karera ni Korina sa loob ng 33 taon. Pero natigil ito dahil sa pagpapasara ng National Telecommunications Commision (NTC) at sa hindi pagbibigay ng Kongreso ng panibagong prangkisa sa ABS-CBN. Ang mga hakbang na ito ng NTC at Kongreso, na parehong naiimpluwensiyahan ng kasalukuyang pamahalaan, ay alinsunod sa kagustuhan ni Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte. Bunsod ng kawalan ng prangkisa ng ABS-CBN, libu-libong talents at empleyado ang kinailangang...

Hands Off Our Children FB Page
Dahil sa palitan namin ng kuro-kuro ni Fried Rice tungkol sa mga tinanggal na pages ng FB, na-curious ako at napabukas ulit ng Facebook. Bumisita ako sa bagong gawang page ng Hands Off Our Children PH, eto kasi yung questionable ang pag-takedown na konektado sa AFP. Eto nakita kong mga pictures na naka-share sa bagong page: Personally wala naman ako nakikitang paglabag sa free speech. Plain and simple propaganda against the communists. Meron ding isang picture dun ng napatay na miyembro ng NPA na miyembro rin ng LFS. Panloloko? Depende sa tao 'yan, propaganda nga eh. Pwede magdemanda ng cyber libel yung Makabayan Bloc kung tingin nilang nasira imahe nila o na-red tagging sila. Wala rin naman pinagkaiba sa page ng Silent No More o...
Ban facebook in the Philippines?
Hindi ko naman sinasabi, pero kung sakali mang ipa-ban ni Pangulong Duterte ang facebook sa Pilipinas ay sasang-ayon ba kayo? Merong good points at bad points kung sakali mang ma-ban ito sa atin. Mawawala na ang trolling o liliit ang mundo ng mga trolls. Sisipag na ang mga tao. Makakapagfocus na sa ibang bagay ang mga gumagamit nito. Pero kung mawawala ito ay malaki ang mababawas sa communication natin, maaapektuhan ang mga iba na gumagamit lang ng messenger/fb para sa kanilang mga transactions (study/business/etc.). Hopefully, hindi ito magiging DDS vs Dilawan na diskusyon, tignan lang natin ang merit at demerit ng pag-ban ng facebook sa Pilipinas kung sakali man.
Louisiana priest arrested for alleged threesome on church altar
A Louisiana priest who was arrested for obscenity last week was allegedly caught having sêx with two dominatrices on the altar of his church, court documents revealed, according to reports. A witness in Pearl River, northeast of New Orleans, called police on Sept. 30 after allegedly viewing Rev. Travis Clark, 37, through a window engaged with two high-heeled, corseted women. Clark was allegedly partially dressed in his priestly attire. The group had allegedly set up stage lighting and appeared to be recording the encounter on a cellphone, according to the New Orleans Advocate. The witness said they became suspicious when noticing the lights at Saints Peter and Paul Roman Catholic Church were on late at night. The alleged incident was...
A wearable sleep-tracker designed by an MIT team could give people the power to shape their own dreams
A team at the MIT Media Lab has created a device that could help people shape the content of their dreams. Called Dormio, the device consists of a bracelet that tracks sleeping patterns and an app that uses recorded messages to suggest dream topics. In a recent study, 67% of people that Dormio told to "think of a tree" then reported dreaming about trees. Tomás Vega wanted to dream about Oompa Loompas. The technology engineer — and self-proclaimed wannabe cyborg — has been developing a device with other researchers at the MIT Media Lab that could help people shape their own dreams. So when he tested it himself, Vega recorded the Oompa Loompa song from "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory," and instructed the device, called Dormio...
DICT Sec. Gregorio Honasan nag-sorry sa nauna nitong pahayag na hindi na masama ang internet speed sa bansa.
Humingi ng paumanhin si Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) Secretary Gregorio Honasan sa nauna nitong pahayag na hindi na masama ang internet speed sa bansa na 3 hanggang 7 mbps. Sa pagdinig ng panukalang P7.4 bilyon pondo ng DICT para sa 2021, sinabi ni Honasan na kaya pang mapaganda ang internet speed sa bansa. “I apologize. I should have really said, it is not yet that good, but we are trying to improve it,” pahayag ni Honasan sa Senate finance committee na pinamumunuan ni Senador Sonny Angara. “Based on global surveys, we are not doing that good yet, but we are not doing that bad. We are somewhere in the middle,” dagdag pa ng dating senador. Ayon kay Honasan, ang P2.7 bilyong Free Public Internet...

Sino ang dahilan kaya nadelete ang mga Pro-Duterte fb pages?
Ito ay nag ugat sa alitan ng mga kritiko laban sa gobyerno. Pinili ng Facebook na fact checker ang Rappler na lingid sa ating kaalaman ay kritiko din ng gobyerno o mga dilawan din hehe Kaya hindi natin masisisi ang pamunuan ng Facebook sa aksyon nila kasi naging sunud sunuran lang sila sa Rappler. Ang dapat sisihin ng mga DDS dito ay ang pahayagan ng Rappler.
