Iirc wala pang Doppler radar ang PAGASA noong panahon ng Ondoy kaya hindi rin nila napredict yung dami ng ulan.

Kaya pala akala ko wala lang yung signal number 1, tapos yun pala kada ilang minuto hahangin at aambon/uulan 😵

Alala ko nung Ulysses nagreklamo ako na bakit wala naman ulan pero yung hangin dinaig pa mga ibang bagyong dumaan for the last decade or so na hanggang Signal no. 1 lang, haha.

I was unaware of the flooding that Ondoy caused during its peak. Electricity wasn't cut off in our area either, internet connection was doing fine as well. It was only when I attempted to go out of the house to buy some food that I realized the damage it caused. No floods in our area, thankfully, but we're almost literally an island that day.

I should have been aware of the near-constant torrential rain all night and all throughout that morning though.

stuffs like this is one reason why i finally decided to go offgrid... with all the stuffs happening in the envi, it will only get worst.. it may happen once or twice a year but i think the investment is worth it..

nanayari na din ito sa amin dati sa bicol, buwan inabot bago mabalik power... partida, tumulong na mga taga ibang province na ayusin damage...

Grabe sira ng phone ko. 10k ang lcd, totoo ba?. Hindi na tuloy ako makakapunta sa concert ni Taeyeon. 😢

Depende sa model pero pag newer units nasa 10-20k LCD.

LPT: Unang una nila tinitignan when availing warranty is kung may dents or signs na nabagsak o nabasa. Pag wala sila makita, wala ka babayaran. If meron, your warranty doesn't apply. That's why having a bulky case that has 360 degree protection (Spigen Armor, UAG, Otterbox) is worth it. Para kahit nahulog or what, if they check it, phone still looks pristine.

Napansin ko lang naman yung mga t-shirt na sinusuot ko madalas ay puro dri-fit na. I don't think I can wear a regular shirt anymore, it might feel weird and heavy lol

Tmi ahead. I tried using a menstrual cup earlier, it was not successful. I spent like an hour and a half in the bathroom, napagod ako. Pero gets ko na how it works, I just need to work on the placement. I really spent that long feeling up my bloody vagina with the cup going in and out. Hay.

Kapag wala pa din mamaya I'll use a lubricant (limited supply so kailangan ko galingan) else I'll just buy another smaller size.

Why am I so determined? Because I need to go to the pool without bleeding out there. I got stuff to practice. Pray for my success.

4

Look into the punch-down fold, should make it easier to push the cup in. Once it's in, push in from the fold side to seal the cup and you should be good. If it has an adjustable stem try walking with it for a bit and trim down as needed.

Brownout since midnight and no signal. Temporarily using a UPS connected to my router to get internet from time to time. Stay safe everyone.

Now that I can comment in the website, let me rant a bit re: r/place.

Good call that r/PH didn't join this year's r/place na inorganisa at a dubious time to begin with. This year's r/place became a happy place for bots and streamers para mamburaot. Some Redditors even suspect that some Reddit admins themselves created those bots para mamburaot.

4
lemmy.world

Yung pinaka-suss talaga was the fact na we're having it again this early when it's supposed to occur like once every four years.

Tapos hindi mo ma-gets duality ng ibang redditors. Galit na galit sa pinoy pride at "peenoise" pero akala mo laking kawalan hindi makapaglagay ng flag sa isang transparent na pautot. Hindi pa marunong magbasa ng pinned thread na may pinned comment. Uulanin sub ng mga tanong na kung ano balak at wala man lang daw ba nationalism (my Relay is still working so I get notifs from reports).

5
lemmy.world

Yang mga makukulit na yan, sila rin yung hindi marunong magbasa ng coordinates. Kasura yung last year, andaming **** na patong nang patong sa assigned pixel ko 🙄

2

Pero in fairness yung higanteng Leni/Kiko flag last year matibay. Kahit may invaders, madali lang nababalik.

Kaso nakakawalang gana na sumali because of bots. Yung mga "Join Lemmy" nga daw ang bilis nabubura.

3

Some Redditors even suspect that some Reddit admins themselves created those bots para mamburaot.

Di na ako magugulat na they condone bots. Sus yung statement nila sa r/palce na "we are working on mitigating with botting"

The circus just keeps circusing themselves

4

I saw a github repo for a bot used in last year's r/place with a long list of forks. It's likely re-used this year as well. They couldn't even address the spam bots so it's unlikely they could put more effort for a short event.

3

Totoong ang sus ng panahon ng place ngayong taon. Circuses part ng bread and circuses + engagement number boosting vibes para sa IPO and PR. Used to actively participate in the previous places but I cannot in good conscience support this year's place.

lemmy.world

Seems like my lemm.ee account cannot see this RD. I wonder why. Baka hindi lang nagsync yung dalawa.

Anyway, bagong hyperfixation: fiscal policies ng bawat Philippine president.

I think the_yaya posting on both lemm.ee and lemme.world screwed it up yesterday.

nyeta tong

anong bibili lang ng ticket may pickup date and time pa. yung location ng pickup nila e walking distance lang naman dun sa venue. what if sabihin ko date and time 30-ish minutes before yung concert?

idk marami kaya manonood ng galing US (virtually unheard of) group na acapella? i guess last time may choral festival dito mej marami naman nanood pero i'm thinking marami don hakot by the choirs din

Today’s Ask PHlemmy: What snack can you not stop eating once it’s open?

3

Especially yung Ketchup Fries flavor. Binibili ko yun during the lockdowns kasi it's resealable, so in theory I could ration it to last until the next grocery trip. It never lasts.

1

I miss the Fabulous Fries version na Cheddar and Sour Cream. Or I'll go way back to Maui Onion and Fries in the early 00s.

nababad ko na sa toyo at suka iyong manok, pwede pa ba iyon gamitin pang Pininyahang Manok? 🙈

I think I just discovered "avocats ex crevettes ng kahirapan":

  • Shrimp kropeck (yung nasa daan lang nabibili na kulay pink, kung nakakaluwag ng konti yung shrimp crackers sa grocery dalihin niyo ><. Pwede din siguro Fishda o yung Lala fish crackers dito)

  • Avocado dip na patamis: avocado, sugar, milk powder na tinitimpla at iniinom mo sa umaga (pag susyal kayo ng konti mag evap, or condensed milk na para pwede na anggalin yung asukal)

Akala ko na-deregister na ang Globe sim ko, yun pala humina na ang signal

2

As i know you cannot accept and make any calls and texts if sim isn’t registered

1

For whatever reason, I can't comment sa Jerboa app. So I'll try sa website mismo. Let's see.

2

Laufey has a new song out: 'Bewitched.' Brethren it is good. It is old school melodramatic jazz, has sultry smokey vocals, orchestral accompaniment at the perfect moments.

2

I’d rather rest, relax and have time away from people who I see at work from Monday to Friday than go with them to an Amusement Park on a Saturday.

Nagsabi na ako na ayaw ko sumama but boss/parents won’t take no for an answer.

Hirap din sa family business. Making me miss my previous work where I feel more freedom.

Ano mas pipiliin mo?

Masaya ka & you have a great state of mental well-being but Low-Mid Salary. versus Mid-High salary pero hindi ka naman masaya & a mid to low state of mental well-being?

2

unfortunately kasama na ang deteriorating life style pag nataas ang sahod.. nalaki din kasi responsibility...

so since mukhang pera ako, duon na ako sa mataaas na sahod...

3

Kung meron naman mataas ang sahod at petiks buhay, hindi nagtatagal ganun na business model.

2

Low salary, with great state of mental well-being. So long as my finances can still maintain that "great state of mental well-being."

But you know, there's a case to be made for enduring that high-salary, low-happiness lifestyle just for enough time to save up, and then switch to the low-salary, high-happiness life. I am not sure I can endure that though.

2

i think depende sa goals and how much sanity you can still allow yourself to throw away hahah

if you can see yourself already done with everything and dying in your current state of mind then former. latter if you feel there's plenty more to want, to achieve, and experience

ig i'm picking former then just wish by some stroke of luck may better opportunities. with the latter kasi i guess you can say you have better chances but the extra income kinda obliges you to make an active effort to better your life, and for that i'm tired hahaha

‘Oppenheimer’ Garnered ₱57.7M on Its Five-Day Haul at Local Box Office

Fiery from its first five days of release in the Philippines, it grossed P19.018M alone in just 9 IMAX screens, now making it the highest-grossing IMAX release for 2023. From regular 2D screens it hauled another P38.74M cinemas nationwide. This makes it now the 2nd Biggest Saturday Opening for a Universal Pictures release (next to Fast X and ahead of The Super Mario Bros. Movie).
