Mabuhay at maligayang pag-alis sa Lemmy! ✈️


An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! πŸ‡΅πŸ‡­


Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

Today’s Ask PHlemmy: What is the stupidest thing you’ve heard someone say that they were 100% serious about?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

yun "lion" daw si 88M kahit di attend debate

My dad once told me when I was young na pag naholdap ka raw sabihin mo "Hindi tayo talo" at guaranteed na papabayaan ka. I'm glad I was never in that situation malamang na-gripuhan ako.

I kind of see where your father got it from. Honor among thieves, that kind of thing--that doesn't make it any less stupid tho. Besides, kahit na makumbinsi mo yung holdaper mo na pareho lang kayo ng "line of work", di yun garantiya na di ka nya papatuisin.

But speaking from personal experience, kung kung nakatira ka sa lugar na maraming snatchers, for example, malamang markado ka na as a local, and they generally leave you alone. Tipong "Oi! Yang si Megane, taga looban yan, mabait nanay nyan! Wag nyong papatusin yan ah!" Lol!

Interesting road junction that I found on Google Streetview. Behind the camera (east) is Cagayan, to the left (south) is Kalinga, and to the right (north) is Apayao.

Sana dumami na bukas kasi may hot take ako tungkol kay Rendon Labador, already forming arguments in the hindsight, HAHAHA but still do it otherwise, I'll also make it a post not a comment here on RD

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

subscribe to Dr. B for chismis

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

uhm... if recent confidential issue being exposed to public is what you're subscribing to about Rendon, sorry to disappoint you but that is not what I'll gonna do tomorrow rather I'll make a discussion that curtails to Rendon's old statement and challenge the popular opinions that surrounds it, I'll view his statements that made him popular that is rebuke by myriads of netizens in another limelight and I will argue why that statement of his is actually a sound advice

Since bukas na ata yung effect sa reddit API I expect my post to be much engaged and am ready to be reproached and to refute but still post it kahit di ganoon karami madagdag na phlemmings

Meanwhile, in Cordon, Isabela, this sign feels ominous and threatening to me. Like are you taking me to a mysterious place that doesn't exist?

Turn your shirt inside out before you proceed, just to be safe, y'know!

Just found out about YouTube's plan to disable video playback for viewers who are using ad blockers.

From the article:

The company has confirmed to The Verge that it’s currently running β€œa small experiment globally that urges viewers with ad blockers enabled to allow ads on YouTube or try YouTube Premium.”

The statement comes after some people began noticing a new prompt warning that video playback could be cut off if YouTube detects repeated use of ad blocking tools. Android Authority earlier reported on those tests, which prevent viewers from watching more than three videos when an ad blocker is active.

I'm pretty much concerned about how it'd affect people who use ReVanced. With Manifest V3 crippling adblocker capabilities, Google going after entities such as Invidious and Vanced (I thinkβ€Œ ReVanced is next, if not already being attacked), I think Google's drive to make their primary business: advertising, unblockable is getting very serious.

I could probably start watching YT a lot less, do something productive with my time. At the same time, I just feel irritated enough that want to watch YT in any other way other than Google's way.

Ang mahal na ng sine ngayon, halos 400 na? Yeesh.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Siguro kailangang bumawi sa mga lugi noong pandemya.

Pero mas mabuti na rin ito para hindi na mag-sine nang mag-isa, dahil mga bading lang daw ang gumagawa noon.

Tang-ina mo pa rin Aldrin.

dahil mga bading lang daw ang gumagawa noon.

Today I learned I'm gay πŸ˜‚

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Me too! I'm not really a movie fan, but I've been in the cinemas alone twice.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I like going to the cinema alone. I don't have to overthink if gusto ng kasama ko yung movie hahaha. Tsaka mas enjoy ko yung movie, same with eating alone. But I'm a loner so 🀷

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

parehas para kayo loner -- it's a match

Sa Recto ba nanoonod yung nagsabi sa iyo nito? Bakit nya alam?β€Œ HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hindi sa akin sinabi yan ah, sabi lang yan ni Aldrin sa isang Redditor noong December 2017

Me spending PHP600+ on a Large Format or IMAX cinema:

Of course, depende sa movie kung ginawa gamit large format o IMAX camera. Kung hindi naka-IMAX o large format, panoorin na lang sa regular 2D.

And been watching movies in theater alone since 2017. Sometimes ako o 2-3 audiences sa loob. Around February this year after watching Babylon, may couple na naguusap na sana ganito palagi para walang sagabal, at tatlo lang kami nun. That movie was exhausting and exciting at the same time, three hours well spent.

Help ya girl out pls! What happens if you send an ultra long text to an Android phone? On iPhone, it gets converted to an MMS I think? Basically the first few lines are displayed then ends with β€œβ€¦β€ then you have to click on the text so it would lead to the whole message in like another page. Is that what happens to Android phones too? As far as I know hindi rin ganun kabago phone niya. Pls help kailangan ko ng closure with the knowledge na nabasa β€˜yun lahat haha

Nakalimutan kong lagyan ng magic sarap yung niluto ko, ang tabang tuloy πŸ˜… bawi na lang sila sa susunod.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

in a few hours, mawawala na rin ang boost for reddit. the official app is stupid at yun lang ung pinaka ok na alternative. it made me learn more about reddit and helped me stumble upon the RDs that became a safe haven during the pandemic. i also learned about the old legends from other subs, and that recent ph history thread only proved that there was a thriving community in that site. sad to see a lot of redditors leave (and/or limit their usage). taena kasi ni spez eh haha napasenti tuloy ng wala sa oras bwiset dhjdjd

Anyways, late good morning y'all.

Baby, I’m yours

And I’ll be yours until the stars fall from the sky

Yours until the rivers all run dry

In other words, until I die

Normalize labeling the Philippines as the reason for Filipinos' deteriorating mental health.

Speaking of which, I probably should be asleep by now. Lmao.
