Mabuhay at maligayang pag-alis sa Lemmy! ✈️


An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! 🇵🇭


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.

Happy weekend!

Today’s Ask PHlemmy: If ₱ wasn't an issue what hobby would you get into?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

mala-Tom cruise. Flying an airplane or helicopter, going to dubai skyscrapper, etc.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

I'd probably go back to 10m Air Rifle or Archery.

Travel and live in comfort in different places abroad. Yung tipong just to experience the culture tapos lipat ulit.

Reading siguro, yaong mayroon kang latest edition ng World Book encyclopedia, ta's isa pang shelf na puno ng mga fave mong aklat at graphic novel.

Buying graphics cards just to train my own AI.

Thank you to u/theyawner for a good read on the urban heat island effect. Sadly, and ironically I might add, that the more we use technology to cool us down, the more we make everyone hotter.

Sana we find a sustainable way to cool ourselves, apart from battling global warming.

Wonder how it's like to stay in space?

Probably on a next update, at the very least a statement. Lots of community demand for it that I doubt the admins will just ignore.

Edit: They did say this several days ago before Threads even launched.

“Watching Like A hawk, with our fingers on the block button.” We will NOT be pre-emptively taking a “Fediblock as a Frist Strike” position.”

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

That's a lot better than Mastodon.social's admin's stance, which is "This is a clear victory for our cause, hopefully one of many to come."

I think, and I am really hoping that I'm wrong, that it's not only myopic, but also would cost a lot of pain later on, when the snake that is Threads strangle Mastodon and swallow it whole.

Good thing someone shared a method of blocking domains, which can hopefully means that individually, users can block Threads if their instance owners don't.

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

Diba pareho admins ng lemmy.world at ng mastodon?

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

Same owner ang sa Lemmy.world and Mastodon.world.

Yung owner naman ng Mastodon.social is the dev of Mastodon—and this is really concerning given his stance on the matter (the link in my previous reply) and that Mastodon instance admins signed an NDA with Meta. We can't know for sure who sold their souls to Meta, which is probably part of Meta's strat here--increase agitation among Mastodon users as well as sow distrust.

Am I falling for it?‌ Likely. Am I spreading FUD here? I suppose it can be argued that way. However, I think that a good way to see where they stand is their stance about de-federating from Threads. It ain't foolproof, since people can and will lie, but in the absence of better ways to divine their (the instance admins) intent, it's good enough for me.

CreepyWikipedia is one of the few subreddits that took the blackout seriously and has yet to return. Hopefully they're fine with me making a Lemmy version: [email protected]

Edit: Ayan na po bot, inayos na!

Thoughts after CH.123 of the Oshi no Ko manga:

spoilerSo many people hating on the potential incest route based on the latest chapter. Why can't you just be happy that for once a decently popular series might explore a serious incest story? It's just fiction man and I'm tired of fictional stories ONLY using incest as some comedic trope.

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

Same. 2021 lang ako nag start makinig ng kpop tapos na-influence lang ako ng friends ko na mahilig sa BTS. Isa sa favorite songs ko by them yang panglima. Iba yung feel nya sa songs ni Suga sa Agust D solo nya.

I think I'm obsessed. Or is it infatuation? Lol. If I do this long enough with dedication this might become an actual hobby. Bottomline is I can only continue this if I got ✨money✨ hahahaha.

Once again, I will rethink my decisions in life. I will do it step-by-step and through experience. I really need to develop that control so I don't panic, and you know, die.

When I feel fear I just try to keep in mind that specific fear comes from the unknown and ignorance. So, let's not be ignorant. Don't be a dumbass and don't be reckless.

Tamang hanap lang ng insurance that can cover extreme sports injury during my free time. Calculated risks tho...I will take that.

Looks like lemmy.world did another stealth update. It only says "BE: 0.18.1" at the bottom now, and apparently it's mostly performance fixes. The only UI change I noticed is that the mod and OP icons are different.

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

It's interesting how lemmy.world is becoming a primary source for performance monitoring and troubleshooting due to the actual high volume of traffic. And this in turn benefits all lemmy instances.

Onstream vs Cloudstream

Onstream

Pros:

  • Much stable
  • Beautiful UI and UX than Cloudstream
  • Can do it's purpose out of the box (No need to setup like downloading extensions, etc.)

Cons:

  • Has pop up ad(picture ad not video) every episode but it's only one and the TV version have none
  • Less features than Cloudstream
  • Have faulty search results you need to complete at least one word in the title, ex.
    • Gret - will not show Hamster & Gretel
    • Gretel - will show Hamster & Gretel
  • Have 2 Trackers
    • Google Firebase Analytics
    • Google Crashlytics
  • Proprietary

Cloudstream

Pros:

  • More features
  • Free and Open Source Software
  • Much more diverse category like p*rn, documentaries and some Filipino Films thanks to extensions
  • No ads

Cons:

  • Will exit the video when suffer a meager connection lost, can be a hassle when it do not continue to where it lefts
  • Poor HCI engineered design process
    • UI are confusing sometimes
    • Harder to set up
  • Abandoned?
  • There's more useless extensions than working ones
  • Has 1 tracker
    • µ?ACRA

My choice for now is Onstream

🤸‍♀️ Ang pangit talaga na teleconsultation ng HMO ko. 🤸‍♀️ Wala definite time kung kailan tatawag. 🤸‍♀️ Sasabihin ng triage sa umaga tatawagan pero alas tres tatawag ng doktor. 🤸‍♀️ Tapos kung nagkataon na nasa banyo ka nung tumawag at di mo nasagot, di mo alam kung tatawag pa uli. 🤸‍♀️ Walang queuing system. 🤸‍♀️ Kahit notification one hour before tawagan, ok na sana. 🤸‍♀️

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

ano HMO? baka pwede ishare?

Lots of concerning climate news recently, with El Niño on top of the dumpster fire that is manmade climate change:

From the article linked above:

Earth's average temperature has set a new unofficial record high once again, the fourth day in a row it has broken or equalled such a milestone.

In hindsight, we've already been warned, such as in this article from late last year.

Putanginang Chinabank branch na yun, nag-wangwang pagkatapos kong mag-withdraw sa ATM tapos walang masyadong tao. Siguro na-trigger yun kasi mabilis akong mag-pindot na madalas kon ginawa sa former bank ko (it took me less than a minute to finish one transaction). O siguro, timing lang yun na may bug sa alarm system nila. Napatingin pa ako habang palakad palayo. lol

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

ang hirap pag nagising ka mula sa mahimbing na tulog gawa ng ingay.
