Long time no see, I guess? I was so focused with VTuber NewsDrop that I only blog here sparsely. Now that you’re here, allow me to welcome you to my new website. I lost track of what version is this on, but I’ll put this on v6. This time, we’re on a different platform – Hugo. My friends use it, VTubers use it, and now I’m using it. It’s been a journey learning how to deploy v6 online, and I’m thankful for every small wins I earned throughout. ...
Over 150 million people use Discord, based on a Quartz report from July (unfortunately, the report’s paywalled). Imagine tapping into that 150 million people, stealing their data and using it for malicious purposes. Just today, VTuber Kitsui Akira had her Discord account stolen without her noticing. Taking into account that she doesn’t click on anything malicious and all, her account’s still stolen. PSA I have been logged out of my Discord & I can't log back in;; And even if I reset password, it says the email doesn't exist. Apparently my account is online right now. Please ignore it if it sends you any messages;; I'm really scared rn, that acc is really important to me.. ...

If you’re a sucker for watching great anime, whether it’s because of the intricate storytelling, the beautiful art style or even the lore in the anime, anime has got that special something in it that just happens to tickle any anime fans’ fancy. Image courtesy of Nick Romanov on Unsplash It doesn’t matter whether you are a huge fan of Hayao Miyazaki’s work or whether you are more into Satoshi Kon’s work. Anime doesn’t discriminate as there are plenty of genres that will fit your liking. ...
Ever since this whole quarantine period has started - there should be a counter on the sidebar that tells you how many days it has been - cashless payment systems are gradually being integrated in our “next normal” lives. I’m going to narrate my stories and experiences about cashless payments, and I hope you get a thing or two from what I’ll share to you. Transport I got introduced to cashless transport through beep, the payment system which started from the light rails to e-shuttles and is now integrated with convenience stores like FamilyMart and MiniStop as well as Wendy’s among others. ...
Now I am faced with a dilemma. Flickr sent all of its users a note dated November 1st: Beginning January 8, 2019, Free accounts will be limited to 1,000 photos and videos. If you need unlimited storage, you’ll need to upgrade to Flickr Pro. After SmugMug acquired Flickr from Yahoo, this is what the new owners will give to us. As they announced the changes, they stated: In 2013, Yahoo lost sight of what makes Flickr truly special and responded to a changing landscape in online photo sharing by giving every Flickr user a staggering terabyte of free storage. This, and numerous related changes to the Flickr product during that time, had strongly negative consequences. ...
iflix— the on-demand service established in 2014 and has spread throughout Southeast Asia, Middle East and North Africa — was among the first on-demand services I got introduced to (the other ones would be HOOQ and Netflix). I still remember during the ToyCon 2015 launch when I had the opportunity to ask the iflix guys if they will include anime and other Japanese content — they were hopeful to show them. ...
What the “Entry-Level Smartphone King” has for me as a task-doer and content creator? Let me tell you a story. I had the best smartphone in the world. It cost me around Php2,500 pesos, small enough to fit my pocket and is pretty much the basic smartphone for my needs. It’s the kind of phone that even crooks will return to me after they steal it. Why so? Long story short, its glass is broken (but it works well), and it’s outdated too. The value to fix the phone costs more than its value. ...
…or what happens to be my one-week nightmare with my bank One day, I was trying to get cash from an at a posh location. The machine was slowly taking the card in. When it’s time to get the cash, the card is getting out slowly — and then it decided that nope, it won’t give me the card and it won’t give me the cash I asked for. ...
…for the better, that is. The last time I’ve checked my Hummingbird was a few months ago or so through a third-party Android app called Imprint (or its previous name Tenpenchii). I’m surprised that Hummingbird, by far the best in tracking my anime viewing habits, got VIZ Media’s (among others) support and turned into Kitsu.io. https://medium.com/heykitsu/hummingbird-is-dead-long-live-kitsu-bda6ccfbbcce?source=post_page-----17a47dde5080---------------------- So this is what Hummingbird has been talking about for what felt like a year or so, yes? ...
