  1. You know, all this cheering for the #Houthis I see everywhere in the internet (including the #fediverse) has always rubbed me the wrong way.

    Looks like my guts were right.

  2. Ask any #OFW where they want to retire and they will mostly say The #Philippines. YET, for all the success they achieve abroad, NOT A SINGLE ONE says they want to move their business here.

    Three guesses as to what the problem really is.

  3. #Migrante International, a global coalition of #OFW groups and their families, condemned #Chinese #Ambassador Huang Xilian’s statement where they said Beijing “makes it appear that #China is holding OFWs in #Taiwan hostage.” philstar.com/headlines/2023/04

    You forget #seafarers. They don't have precincts. #OFW #Philippines

    Regardless.

    The shorter the time,
    the less time for hocus pocus,
    the less chances for tampering.

    The answer is not extending voting time here. Disiplina lang. Huwag pasaway. Kaya 'yan. #Pinoy

    You won't get more done by giving people more time. They'll just use up the extra time to do the same amount of work that can be done in a shorter amount of time. It's human. Inefficient. Dumb. 🤷‍♀️

  10. @vertigo @crc I recently fixed a small bug in #OFW so it is certainly not bug-free. Sure the functionality required is very similar. You could define/redefine additional Forth words to change firmware's behaviour. But to change a whole thing you would need to reflash it. My point is about consistent, open source code and clean interfaces. #ACPI and #EFI are horrible mess, but that's a matter of my personal opinion. Some people strongly dislike reading #Forth code and I can understand that.
