Today’s Ask PHlemmy: What are the biggest scams/lies that we all "fall" for?

Yesterday, Joey for Reddit finally joined other 3rd party apps to be shut down because of the API fiasco. The dev shared this message:

Hello friends,

First of all I would like to apologise for not informing about what has been happening with Joey for past month. A lot has been going on IRL and Joey has been my only source of bread and butter so the API news has been pretty stressful to say the least.

I was in talks with Reddit regarding moving Joey to the paid API. But the API access to Joey has been shutoff in middle of the talk, without prior notice to me.

Thank you for your kind support all this time

Spez, you absolute scum.

Also, for those still using old.reddit on desktop, do get logoffed automatically without meaning to? It keeps happening to me. Maybe it's something to do the API changes.

I don't know languages so TIL

lemmy.world got hammered with a DDoS attack for more than an hour earlier.

On another note, I don't like the Sync for Lemmy logo.

^repost^ pero cover 🎸

Misamo x Polyphia collab when?

May bagyo ba? Ba't ang lakas ng hangin!!! Parang matatanggal bintana namin.

Kakagising lang, headache agad 🥲 brrr

marahay na pagkahapon!!!

It took me 4 months to adjust to our stupid shifting schedule. I'm back to my normal program of working out 💪 actually now that I have a measurable goal with what I want to do hobby-wise I feel so much more motivated.

It doesn't feel like a chore anymore lol. I like it because 1) we get stronger and 2) I get to eat more! those 4 months of adjustment was me doing my best to fast and let's just say it was somewhat miserable.

Yung tulog ko naman--basta kapag pwede matulog natutulog na lang. Hindi naman ako maarte, basta malinis at hindi sobrang lamig. I've been doing breathing exercises and it does wonders for me. It's like I meditate and then end up falling asleep eventually.

Anyway ~~~ my current animal creature obsession this week is the titan triggerfish 🤩 matututo talaga ako mag dive and I'm gonna see them in the future. I can definitely see myself just going back and forth sa dagat just to see them creatures.

I love biodiversity 😩 I remember seeing a big ass sand dollar during my last snorkel and I got so excited nagulat at natakot yung kasama ko sakin akala niya kung anong meron. Tapos nung hindi ko na makita yung bottom of the sea floor (just a dark blue) I started hyperventilating because I thought it was scary and cool and what lies deeper? What are the possibilities? I wanna see!

But my ability is still too low. So. I shall do my best 😤😤😤

Isa sa mga pinaka-malaking problema (bukod sa baha) kapag tuloy tuloy ang ulan eh yung napaka-ingay patak ng ulan lalo na kung ordinaryo lang ang bahay na wala masyado insulation ang bubong. Nakakrindi sobra ang ingay

May napanood ako yung pasagi-sagi daw ng braso habang naglalakad ay pasimple daw. Natandaan ko tuloy yung isang may gumawa sakin nun na feeling ko medyo extreme at halos i-corner niya na ako sa pader. I thought it was just me at parang ang dikit-dikit niya sakin masyado.

He really tested my dodging and maneuvering abilities when it comes to personal space. Medyo mahirap maglakad when on one side there's a wall and on the other side this guy who keeps getting closer and closer for some reason. It was kind of suffocating. We're not that close, okay, I just met you.

Tapos gusto pa ata akong gawin booty call or something. Ahh, I was so naive and annoyingly open 🤦‍♀️ buti na lang I got some self-respect.

No matter what they take from me, they can't take away my dignity~~

Who needs Gcash when I have D-Lata

'World's richest beggar': Indian man has P49.8 million net worth thanks to begging

Bharat Jain of Mumbai makes 60,000 to 75,000 rupees (P39,000 to P49,000) monthly, thanks to the kindhearted denizens of the financial capital. This translates to a daily income of 2,000 to 2,500 rupees (P1,300 to P1,600).

Mans playing life on hardmode... And winning.

Bharat didn't get the chance to have formal education due to his financial status. He, however, got married and had two sons, whom he was able to send to school—and graduate—no problemo.

At least hindi ginastos sa pagsusugal.

His 10 to 12 hours of hustle every day along Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus railway station and Azad Maidan sports ground allowed him to purchase a two-bedroom flat worth 12 million rupees (P7.9 million), as well as two stationary stores that he rents out for 30,000 rupees (P19,900) per month.

Biznezz minded si kuya.

Despite enjoying an already comfortable life—all while building his real-estate portfolio—Bharat's mendicancy work goes on, against the wishes of his loved ones.

It would've been funnier kung penny pincher sya tapos Bharat pa talaga pangalan nya lmao.

Why are CityMall cinemas so cheap (₱150), and yet have better projection, better aspect ratio (2.39:1, I think, basta wide), better contrast, and better sound than SM Cinemas na ₱260 na naka 1.85:1 tapos madilim pa, may ACS commercials pa?

I was skeptical on CityMall's until I watched M:I Dead Reckoning pt. One. Damn, may malapit lang naman na sinehan.

Sa mga projectionist ng SM Cinema, bakit ganyan equipment niyo? Haha

May bago na ulit upload si SteveMRE! Unfortunately, the MRE pack he's reviewing is considered one of the worst (Country Captain Chicken).
