BIR: Bureau of Internal Rackets

Was at the RDO (Revenue District Office) this afternoon. They wouldn't receive our small corporation's 1702Q. The lady said we had to pay MCIT (Minimum Corporate Income Tax), she even whipped out the resolution for it. So I browsed it and under the very 1st section it clearly states that MCIT is applied to corporations after their 4th year of operation (this is only our 2nd year). I pointed this out to her but she tried to overwhelm me with sub points and what not. Basically she was trying to hustle me. To show the bitch she couldn't hoodwink me. I turned the implementing rules and regulations to the 1st page and used English to overwhelm her. I reckoned these hacks in our BIR weren't to adept in Uncle Sam's tongue so I had the upper hand or lip? Anyway she ended up passing me off to her boss. When I entered the office I immediately used the same strategy and after making me wait 15 minutes they finally caved and received my 1702Q. Up yours BIR and Mabuhay and Republika ng Pilipinas... We really are on our way to progress.

Darth Kegaw to Treo 750: It is Useless to Resist

I have never been one to keep my devices *as is* when it comes to the OS/Firmware… This 2nd Treo 750 will be no different. So I dusted off my old Cheetah files [trivia: the Treo 750 is codenamed HTC Cheetah] and decided to HARD SPL [this allows for non-carrier branded ROMs to be loaded] and flashed it to a Windows Mobile 6.1 ROM. Everything is proceeding as I have foreseen… and the ROM loaded without any issues. I did notice that Microsoft Voice Command 1.6 was not included in this ROM not really a problem since I own the software as well.  I’m currently syncing my PIM data and will be installing my apps over the next few days.

Elopocalypse or Balmergeddon

So which is it? Nokia (NOK) and Microsoft (MSFT) announced a partnership today. Both lumbering companies have been in some trouble with their smartphone divisions. Both have been loosing market share to Apple, Android and Blackberry in recent years. WindowsMobile (previously PocketPC and currently WindowsPhone) once the dominant mobile OS, yes folks before the iPhone came into power Microsoft slowly but surely killed of it’s main competitor palm OS, which was acquired by hp last year and is now barely a sliver of a shadow of it’s former former former self. Just this week hp/palm unveiled 2 new smartphones the palm Pre 3 and Veer, as well as their entry into the tablet space with the TouchPad. hp being one of the top computer manufacturers at the moment has the resources to use and spread webOS like a creamy peanut butter across all markets they are in. By being one of MSFT’s biggest customers now suddenly not using Windows7 (still MSFT’s tablet OS of choice) and churning out comp...
