Questions about less than 1k theft
  • youronlyone youronlyone Now 100%

    @Supremo@lemmy.world

    Before anything else, IANAL and TINLA.

    The #Philippines, like South #Korea, have a law that “exempts a family who commit theft, swindling and malicious mischief from criminal liability exists”.

    You can read more about it here: https://attorney.org.ph/legal-news/53-strange-laws-you-never-knew-existed-part-12-of-15-family-members-who-commit-theft-are-not-criminally-liable

    This is probably what the police meant. Though, should have been still liable for civil.

    Or, maybe, there is an IRR that states anything under a certain amount + it falls under this exemption, is indeed not qualified even if only for civil.

    I think, the idea behind it is to encourage it being solved within the family instead of the family unit being destroyed because family members and relatives are filing cases against each other.

    Again, IANAL and TINLA.

    Tell your “friend” that their best course of action is to consult with an attorney.

    @Knoll0114@lemmy.world Only for #Lemmy instances, or are you open for the entire #Fediverse ( #ActivityPub ) network?

    I have these in my own list:

    - comics@chirp.social
    - webcomics@a.gup.pe

  • This vs Kbin?
  • youronlyone youronlyone Now 100%

    @GameWiz@lemmy.world Regardless, it doesn't really matter.

    Are you guys from the /r/philippines subreddit and trying to find a new home? Or, you just want to start a new #Philippines community in the #fediverse network?

    If it is the latter, then we already have well-established communities like @pinoy@chirp.social @philippines@a.gup.pe @pilipinas@lemmy.ml ^_^

    So, keeping @philippines@lemmy.world is perfectly fine, you don't really have to move. The more communities we have in other instances, the better. Redundancy and continuity.

    It means that, if one community hosted in a different instance goes offline (temporarily or permanently), the other Philippines communities in other instances are still intact. Those affected can move to the other existing communities. It happened before (an instance went offline, temporarily) and it almost happened again (permanently).

    However, if you are the /r/philippines subreddit, since you have an existing community you are migrating over to the fediverse, then yes, choose the instance you want to be hosted on. One where you can get a guarantee that they will do everything they can to stay online for the next 20 years. Otherwise, you risk breaking the community if the instance suddenly goes offline.

    Does that make any sense? ^_^

  • What do you use to track your reading?
  • youronlyone youronlyone Now 100%

    @teroshan@mastodon.social True that. Hopefully it will come. I want to remove my reliance on Goodreads since I'm not using it other than to track. And the authors I follow are more active outside of Goodreads. 😅 (Some are even here on the fediverse network.)

  • youronlyone youronlyone Now 100%

    @Deebster@beehaw.org I used to use #Anobii as well, it was far better than #Goodreads in its early days, unfortunately, the latter overtook them. Now, most of my shelves are on Goodreads.

    You can go self-hosting mode. You can self-host #BookWyrm, or the traditional, ever reliable, #Calibre. ^_^ I no longer use Calibre because Goodreads.

    On the BookWyrm side of things, it can import your books from Goodreads.

  • To you, what are things that should and should not be normalized in Filipino culture?
  • youronlyone youronlyone Now 100%

    @putangina@lemmy.world Good question!

    1. Cancel culture, we don't need that foreign culture here.

    2. taking photos/videos of anyone without asking for permission with the intention of shaming them. It is a violation of their #Privacy to mention one (there are others).

    3. #Copyright infringement - using, translating, creative derivative works, re-uploading/re-distributing someone else's work without permission or license.

    4. The foolish #CTTO (Credit-To-The-Owner), because if you don't have a permission or a license to use, re-use, re-upload/re-distribute, translate, create derivative works, of someone's work, it still is Copyright infringement.

    5. Threatening to and shaming people who are failing / failed to pay the money they borrowed. It is a violation of their Privacy.

    🤔 Those are the ones I can think of right now.

    On that note: Happy 🇵🇭 #IndependenceDay from #Spain! #June12 #Philippines!

  • The new [#Steam](https://calckey.social/tags/Steam) client they are going to release soon, is going to be a big problem for many [#Linux](https://calckey.social/tags/Linux) users, or at least those of us with non-high-end computers. It is too heavy, slow, and hogging system resources. You can try it today by enabling the Steam beta in your settings. I wish there's a way to stay in the old Steam client. T\_T Anyone found a workaround?
