Wow, the browser team is active these days. They do reply via SNS / social media.

So, apparently, they did not include their own Naver search in the global version of Whale browser because:

> It's always been a concern of ours how useful NAVER Search would be overseas. ( https://x.com/WhaleGuru/status/1791370687900430627 )

I advised to them that they should not worry about it. They can include Naver search in the list of options, while not setting it as the default. This will help in making global users familiar with Naver search.

And with the declining quality of search results in both Google and Bing/DuckDuckGo/Ecosia, there is an opportunity for Naver search there.

From my own experience, Naver search's result for other languages is better today than a few years ago. If they can provide an English interface, there is a market for them globally.

Users warned of scammers targeting accounts using fake emails.

In a statement, CICC Executive Director Alexander Ramos revealed that scammers

Have begun sending fake emails via platforms like

** Viber and Facebook Messenger **

Rather than the traditional SMS messages.

Ramos also cited that the number of scam text messages has "declined significantly"
since the implementation of the

SIM Registration Act on Dec. 27, 2022.

Oh crap!

Not good, yeah it has been a pain in the butt for many, especially those who are outside the Philippines and may have a SIM but failed in being able to provide a local address, DL etc ... for registration.

There are ways around 😉😉 (winkwink*) though, as he/ she knows 🤔👍🏻💯😁

Another unique(?) trope in land is this:

When a character is about to reveal something important, like their true identity, they will be interrupted with either:

  1. An emergency.
  2. They're summoned by someone higher.

You eventually get used to it, and expect it is going to happen.

    Going to the because of a Filipino you want to and be in a with?

    Here are some dating tips, nothing grand, but can be useful.

    1. Know how to say “I love you” in the language because we have two for romantic relationships.
    • “Mahal kita” = This is your “I love you” in English. It can be used romantically or for family and relatives.
    • mahal = ma (as in “mama”) + hal (as in ha + L) which means “love”
    • kita = ki (as in ‘ki’ in “kit”) + ta (as in ‘ta’ in “tank”) which means “you”
    • “Iniibig kita” = This can be translated into English as “I deeply love you” or “I deeply desire you” or both; and should only be used romantically. You could say it is a poetic way of saying “I love you”, however, it is more than that.
    • iniibig = i-ni-i-big (i = as in the sound of saying the letter “e” = iihh) which means “[deeply] love”
    1. Understand what “mutual understanding” or “m.u.” is.

    It's actually simple. “Mutual understanding” is that stage wherein two people are already comfortable with each other, but are still not officially dating. Usually, they do not know they like each other; however, there are those who choose it because they are not sure yet (especially permission from parents).

    If the person you like decides to be in an M.U. relationship, don't take it negatively. It is a sign that they are considering dating you, just that, there are still things they need to settle on their end. Give them some time.

    1. You need to clarify your relationship.

    Never assume that you are dating. I've seen “couples” who never made it clear and later was shocked the other partner finally have a “boyfriend” or “girlfriend”. The surprised party felt “cheated” but in reality, no one cheated, they were never dating in the first place!

    It is important to make your relationship clear.

    • Are you dating exclusively? “Exclusively”, meaning, there are no one else both parties are dating.
    • Or, are you in an “open relationship”? An “open relationship” is a relationship wherein you allow each other to have other dates.
    • Are you actually dating, M.U., or just friends?
    • Are you “officially” dating? “Officially”, meaning, both of your parents know (regardless if they agreed to it or not).
    1. “PDA” or “Public Display of Affection”

    This is publicly holding hands, hugging, kissing (cheeks, lips), being overly sweet with each other.

    Filipinos are generally fine with it. If you don't like it, a Filipino date might misinterpret it as you not being proud of them. Thus, if it is not in your culture to show PDA, then make it clear with the Filipino you are dating, to avoid misunderstandings.

    There are also some Filipinos who are not into PDA, so, you need to be open about it. And limits.

    1. You are not just dating one person, you are dating the entire family.

    Filipinos are family-centric. And when it comes to Filipino, be sure to treat their families well.

    This is a good thing. If your partner is telling you what to do, it means they really want to date you.

    That's just 5 when it comes to dating. Marriage proposal is a whole different matter. We have our own form “dowry”, although less practised today, it is still good to know, especially if the Filipino you want to marry is traditional. (They may not tell you anything because you're a foreigner, but deep inside they're expecting it.)

    However, that's a discussion for another day.

    This Lunar New Year is particularly special for Chinese around the world as the dragon represents wisdom, good luck, and strength.

    Perceived as a celestial and divine creature, the dragon has always played a significant role in Chinese culture, meaning many will be looking to have “dragon babies” during this period, which comes around once every 12 years.

    I hate that being covid cautious is such a heavy burden, and that it wouldn't be nearly as difficult if everyone (or at least the majority) took part.

    It's been so tiring; slowly recovering from burnout and depression, dealing with an increased workload in the office (burning out again...), and continually fighting for a permanent remote work accommodation, all the while staying away from family and friends who have given up on any mitigations. But this is viewed as being my fault, that I'm doing this to myself because I want to be isolated for some reason, or that I've become increasingly paranoid over something that "isn't really dangerous anymore".

    Do they really think I want to live like this? Do they really think I enjoy not seeing family and friends? Granted I wasn't very outgoing pre-covid, but I'd love to be able to go out without a mask, meet up with others and not be afraid of disability and death.

    I didn't choose this life, it was thrust upon me by a society that is unwilling and/or unable to accept the terrifying truth that an airborne virus is ripping through their lives while they continue to catch and spread it over and over and over again.
