Hello July! Thank god it's Sabado!

Today’s Ask PHlemmy: What is your favorite non alcohol drinks?

Apir, hydrohomie. You know what? Fuck it. Wala na tayo sa teddit. Balik na tayo sa OG term: Bring it in, mah waternigga.

Coffee used to be my obsession.

Cheap iced coffee original by McDonald's every day, once in the morning and another just after lunch to fight off sleepiness. Super fan din ako ng Sumiyaki ng UCC which is my go-to if feel ko something a bit different from McDo. If I'm in the mountain province area, I'd buy civet coffee because it's cheaper there (150 a cup as opposed to 900 if you buy it here). Also have a Nespresso machine and I try all kinds of flavors - pag di ko nagustuhan yung nabili ko na pack, I trade it to my sister for other capsules.

Now I can't because of GERD 🥹 Hanggang Gatorade na lang ako ngayon, lol.

7

Coffee has been so ordinary and routine to my daily life now that I basically forgot about it.

Pagkagising, mag-gigiling ng kape, sabay isasalang sa coffee maker or french press. I also had a phase when I tried looking around for different local coffee varieties to test out. I ended up just sticking with Barako (since it's the variety nearest to where I live).

I mostly drink it tempered with milk and sugar (yes, it is heresy, I‌ know).

4

I suppose that's one reason.

That reminded me of the time I was in the IKEA restaurant. I had a field day trying out different soda options not readily available here.

Hindi pa ako nakakatikim nyan! 😭 Naririnig-rinig ko lang siya dati, pero di ko alam kung saan.

Afaik wala na sila dito sa Pinas. Yung sa megamall huli kong napuntahan mid or late 2000s pa.
Mas masarap kasi yung float vanilla ice cream tapos little to no ice yung rootbeer. Kapag nilagay na yung scoop ng ice cream hahalo sa fizz tapos aapaw. Hay memories...

4

Ay, sobrang late ko na nga. I used to hear of an earlier incarnation of the A&W restaurant tho, sa may Vito Cruz ata? Tapos advertised sa Eat Bulaga nung 90's. Etong nauna, ang nakikita ko (na naka-advertise), hamburgers. Tipong mas malaking version ng Whopper ng BK--that's my impression anyways.

Either incarnation di ko na rin naabutan, lol!

Oy! Favorite ko rin yan. My husband thinks I am weird for loving the stuff. Yung double choco kasi paborito nya.

Tried their sweet corn variant, and I liked it. It's one of my go-to drinks pag mejo mahaba ang byahe or maraming kailangang asikasuhin sa labas ng bahay.

lemm.ee

I'm in, I think? I have to use another instance cause .world hasn't sent me a verification email (will message the admins regarding that). Kumusta na kayo dito?

15

Hi Everyone Good morning! Sana oks lang kayo lahat! I have decided to really take refuge here, post once in a while. Really sorry na nagpost ulit tapos mini-OMC na na naman yung post hehe. Sharing lang ulit, and talk to you all sometime, just clearing my headspace todah... Happy working weekend for me, pero pahinga kayo ah! Ingat 💝

I really did not follow through yet with what I promised here before, pero I guess I did the next best thing - reaching out and showing a fraction of how I much feel. Alam mo yun, yung di ko na inoverthink kung ano yung iisipin niya as long as I get the message across - I care.

I truly miss you everyday, pero I know there are things now that are out of my control and I really just don't want to mess anything up. My mission's probably over, but what I know, though, is I won't stop wishing hard and nothing but the best for you. Maybe though, I will also start wishing hard for me, too, find my place in this world eventually. Thank you for letting me love you like this, but it's time for me to go. It's time for you to chase that love, too, and yeah wag ka nang maghold back diyan ha, like me 🤜🤛. Be happy, be well, be loved - you truly deserve it my friend.

Hala! Isasama daw sa list of accomplishments yung unity ng two networks sa susunod na SONA.

12

Think about it, if it indeed comes to pass that every TV channel here in the Philippines becomes unified under one umbrella, it'd be a lot easier to pressure them to do what the government tells them they do. They could minimize, or flat out refuse news coverage from government scandals, for example.

It's a win for the government if that happens, sure, but not one I'd like to see being announced in a grand manner in a SONA.

3

Seryoso to!?‌ Langya naman! 🤣

Gets ko naman na lahat na lang ng "achievements" ng iba ninakaw nya. Pero eto, parang hindi achievement ito eh. I don't think it's the win that he thinks it is.

i wanna see this no-reddit-for-the-rest-of-my-life as a sign na magbagong buhay. hahahaha

lemmy.world

Ang bagal ng lemmy.world today. Looks like another hardware upgrade is in order to compensate for the influx of new users/activity. 🫢

11

Kaya pala. The admin is trying to upgrade the server again to the new version. Medyo wrong timing pero sige, lol.

Edit: Bukas pa pala. So tiis tiis muna dito sa slow-as-molasses lag.

6

Importante ang power dynamics sa conflict resolution. Dapat alam mo yung mga biases at marginalization na nangyayari sa sitwasyon.

I have already uninstalled Boost for reddit (great app) and haven't looked back since

megane-kunreply
lemmy.world

I haven't really thought about what to do with my 3rd party app on my phone. Should I uninstall it? Or should I just leave it as a memory?

Leaning on just uninstalling it though. Cut oneself off decisively and cleanly.

6
lemmy.world

I'd probably keep Relay in the background until the day it deactivates on its own once they move to a subscription model.

megane-kunreply
lemmy.world

I guess that's another option. In my case, RIF has already announced it'd shut down on June 30th, so I can just leave it be until later today.

5

I checked my RIF‌ upon waking up earlier, and to my surprise, it's still working. It's still working at the time I am making this reply. Not expecting it to work for long though, it's just a matter of time.

For disclosure, I've already logged out of all my accounts last night. I also cleaned my history, subscriptions, and other stuff.

4

Of course. Those questions are to myself. And frankly, I don't think I should be in a hurry deciding anyways.

Medyo underwhelmed ako sa opening ng Eat Bulaga pero ok lang kasi namiss ko pala ang kakulitan ng jowapao tuwing tanghali.

Ang haba din listahan ng sponsors nila. Nilipat ko na lang after the 7th.

Sakto, TNT na.

Truly! para akong nanonood lang ng commercials. Hayy. Turned the TV off na now na umalis na nanay ko

Gusto ni Vice Ganda na mag-guest sa isang palabas sa GMA. Ano kaya ito? Fast Talk with Boy Abunda? Bubble Gang? Imbestigador?

10
lemmy.world

So dumating yung technician ng PLDT dahil nagreklamo ako na hindi namin nar-reach ung promised speed na 300mbps sa PLDT plan.

Habang nandito siya, umaabot ng 300mbps ung up and down speed sa speedtest ung wifi namin. Ngayong naka-alis na siya, bumababa na yung speed sa speedtest ko. May sensor yata tong wifi namin para malaman kung may technician o wala dito sa bahay eh hahahahaha

10

Parang nung *tumawag ako sa 117 kasi grounded yung phone namin, nung sinabihan ako na tumawag ulit biglang luminaw yung linya.

6

I know, mas fair gawa ng dinadaya ng mga ISP yung results ng speedtest unlike fast.com hindi pa masyadong gamit kaya fair pa yung results

lemmy.world

So far gumagana pa rin si Relay. Sync, on the other hand, is gone. Ewan ko lang sa iba pa.

Edit: Mukhang pansamantala lang as they move to a subscription model.

10

lemm.ee

Di na gumagana rif kaya uninstalled ko na sa phone ko

Will likely do the same once Relay becomes subscription-based. No reason keeping/paying for it when I don't plan to use Reddit anymore.

3

Nalasing si coworker and it was very rowdy. I did not get hammered because masaya na talaga ako mag kayak paulit-ulit 😆 I'm so behaved I don't drink much when swimming because what if I got so drunk I end up drowning? It's a dumb way to die for me.

Yung supervisor namin akala ko nag jjoke lang palunod shuta totoo pala nag cramp daw yung likod niya, had to pick him up while lounging around. I felt like a lifeguard sa mga di marunong lumangoy.

Ok lang, cause I can pick you up in my ✨kayak✨ HAHAHA roundtrip pa. I can even parallel park this shiz 😂 I don't own a car but I have a kayak, ok na ba yun? Aasdfhjkl

10

Really liking this Wefwef (wefwef.app) wrapper for Lemmy. Now we finally have a good mobile client for Android (ironic, since it's very much based on Apollo). It's really taken the sting out of losing mobile access to Reddit. Now looking forward to the rest of the stepping up their game. But still excited for Sync and Boost to come out and announce their clients!

10

May JSON export din from Apollo to Wefwef kaya andali mag-migrate/maghanap ng subs.

lemmy.world

Mukhang accounted for na lahat ng big third party Reddit apps. Baconreader is technically Jerboa looks-wise so no loss there.

7

yaaay! di ko masikmura ung apps ng lemmy kaya sa browser ako lagi nagoopen haha! so happy u/rmayayo did thissss!

Google will probably delete it. I remember Clash Royale (a Supercell game) was review-bombed, now it's back to 4.2.

Dami na ring ibang cases of apps being review-bombed pero bunabalik lang din sa dati kasi tinatanggal ni Google.

7
lemmy.world

Negative reviews. Palalabasin na bots or coordinated attack when it's genuine sentiment.

7

haha manipulation talaga ng mga big corps, syempre mas importante stock holders nila kesa users

Advance Happy IRL Cake day po sa inyo, Viola!
Kaya mo pa rin 'yan, kahit na nabibigo't nadadapa, tulad na lang sa 'kin ngayon.

It's Showtime na mamaya sa GTV. Baka mapunta sa GMA ang IST if the fake Bulaga falls.

12

Ayun nga, di ko alam kung mabigat lang yung pinto o naka-lock lang. So what I've been doing is jumping out of windows. I kinda feel like a ninja.

Ayan, marunong na ako mag kayak and I practiced my swimming skills. Ito na ang workout ko.

Biglang binago ng CCTV ang naratibo ng r/ph tungkol kay Awra ah.

9

Buti na lang by the time I checked on the issue may article na with both sides covered, not just yung may "hinipuan kaya nagwala" story. That's when I decided to hold off and wait for more details. I did take exception to what the police chief said, although tbf nga it's probably just a gaffe from Tulfo's leading question.

That said, I wouldn't call this a W just yet for those celebrating vindication in r/PH. We're not sure yet why the heck Awra was chasing the guy all the way to the street. Yung prevailing sentiment na "hayok na hayok" daw is just as bad of a narrative as what was making rounds the previous night.

lemmy.world

Ito problema ng karamihang mainstream netizens, inuuna agad reaksyon. Bumalik ako sa Teddit dahil lang dito, at isang magandang pagsisimula ng Hulyo. Lol

4

Masayang magbasa ng mga comments/replies na napaka-compulse galing sa mga socmed user na iniimport ang mentalidad sa Reddit (o likely dito sa Lemmy.world), knowing these users are no valuable to the community but toxicity and disruption of the platform.

Call me pessimist or whatever, but this is really what I see on socmed users for the past five years.

2

I really miss the feeling of having 12-14 hours of deep sleep every saturday after being puyat as fuck all week long. I remember 1st year 1st sem of college ay halos kakagising ko pa lang pag ganitong oras every saturday. Bumabawi ng tulog pag sat kasi puyat kami ng mga kabarkada ko nun buong week kakalaro dota, bilyar, inom, gimik.

Ngayong tumatanda hirap na maka 8 hours of deep sleep every sat kahit pagod at puyat buong week. Nagigising talaga agad at mababaw ang tulog dahil sa mga problema.

Unfortunately, yeah. Also, kung may mga experts man tayo dito, mukhang nag-si-abroad na ata.

Luh magbebenta ng 2nd hand tapos mas mahal pa sa brand new + freebies 🙃

No thanks na lang po hahaha

so mukhang iblo-block na ng youtube yung mga adblockers. I guess time na para gamitin yung mga invidious alternate frontend for youtube at logout na ng gmail account sa main container ng firefox

lemmy.world

Pagod na ako. There was this damn game with a lot of jumping activity and tmi hindi kinaya ng boobs ko. I even got the comment it kept bouncing around or sana sila din daw ganun etc.

How do I feel with these kinds of comments? ✋Sanay na ako, whatever. I have what I have. Bahala sila, basta walang inappropriately touchy or maniniko talaga ako. Hindi po prepared yung bra ko for that kind of dynamic high impact activity tho. Naloka talaga ako.

7

sana sila din daw ganun

babae yun mga yun? kala ko sa mga anime at palabas lang ung mga babaeng inggit sa boobs ng ibang babae, meron din pala irl

ngayon na lang ulit nabuksan ang tv after.. 1 year? tapos tatlong sabay2 na noon time show yung pinaglilipatan ng channel. i remember back in elem and hs na excited umuwi sa tanghali kasi makakanood saglit ng ganto. those were simple times pa, ngayon nagkagulo2 na sila, but it's fun to watch

Sumilip ako ngayon sa fb live ng legit eat bulaga. Wala na ba ibang studio ang tv5? parang pang taping lang ng low quality sitcom yung gamit ngayon ah haha

7

Maliliit lang studio nila sa TV5 Mandaluyong eh. Kahit naman nung nasa Novaliches sila, anliit ng studios nila for shows.

One time nag-audition ako for Who Wants…? sa Nova studios pa nila dati, anliit lang pala talaga dun.

Side note: I guess dadami na yung customer ng Tapa King TV5 hahahahaha. Laging yung Ramen Kuroda saka Samgyupsalamat lang dinudumog dun eh.

7

Naisip ko nga eh, bakit di na lang nila gamitin yung studio na ginamit ng Tropang LOL? Kaso nung tinignan ko, ibang studio pala yung ginamit para dun.

tahannreply
lemmy.world

Napansin ko di nila ginamit yung phrase "Eat Bulaga" sa theme song nila. Ibig ba sabihin hindi na sila "Eat Bulaga"? Even sa YouTube channel ng TV5, Legit Dabarkads ang tawag sa kanila.

4

Trademark issues with Tape Inc. Siguro play safe muna sila hanggang maapprove yung application nila for the name. Iisipin mo pa *ba na hindi Eat Bulaga yung show dahil sa title kung yung hosts, theme songs pati ads katulad nung dati? Aabangan ko yung segments. Ang kulit nung kanta no hahaha

Sabi na nga ba may mga Kapusong guest sa Showtime. Si Alden kaya?

Bahala kayo mag-away away kay Awra. Basta ako inaantay ko pa rin yung 22 out of 30 schools na inaplayan ni Julian Martirs bago nyo masabi na pahiya ako, lmaooo.

Good luck, dude! Baka mas magkatotoo pa yung bente mil pesos para sa isang kilo ng bigas. 😂

Just had my lunch here recently. Pero lakas pa naman nun ah dami pang customers. Nagpa follow-up pa nga ako dahil ang tagal ng order ko. Biglang closing down for good na pala.

5

First branch kasi siguro. Yung naalala ko kasi parang mas popular yung same concept pero Max group yung may ari. Parang mas recent yata na dumami ang Pepper Lunch.

haha newpipe on windows na ako, medyo okay na din na walang google account gawa ng pwede i-export yung subscription tapos ayun nalang yung feed.

Kaso wala nga lang shorts at livestream unless nasa search field

And now, Twitter blocks unregistered users, forcing us to sign-up. Wondering that Reddit, Google, and Bing will do the same thing

And now, Twitter blocks unregistered users, forcing us to sign-up

Me who've left my Twitter account to rot (and possibly nuked by Stealon Muskrat): Eh, I guess I'll just not.

And yeah! I don't think it'd be long before those that you've mentioned do the same thing: keep everyone not already logged-in out, and preventing anyone else any access.

3

Yeah, and once people are locked in to the various walled gardens, the enshittification will accelerate. On top of that, they're making the costs (the effort, etc) to migrate to other services and environments really hard, keeping people trapped.

At least this dystopia isn't that boring, for now, at least.

The inability to see sacrifice as inherently enjoyable runs through the Marxist tradition, beginning with Marx himself. He cannot imagine that workers would continue to invest themselves in the capitalist system when the system simply demanded sacrifice from them without any recompense. Marx doesn’t grasp that the very irrationality of the sacrifice can constitute the source of its appeal.

Apart from the noontime show switch on TV earlier this afternoon, Brigada News FM Metro Manila is now conducting tests on 105.1 FM replacing Q Radio which signed off yesterday. Currently, it airs automated music before its launch on Monday, while the 104.7 signal from Batangas air regular programs at this time.

Timeless TV has replaced Oras ng Himala Channel on channel 29.2 via RJTV's digital service. The channel shows classic movies and TV shows.

Kung nasa Comments section ka ng profile mo or ng iba, ano yung gagawin para malaman yung context/thread ng isang comment?

4
lemmy.world

Pag sa Liftoff (or other mobile apps), chain icon should do it.

Sa desktop/web browser naman, the fediverse icon as seen here:

lemmy.world

Yung chain icon sa Liftoff, sa whole thread ako naredirect.

Gusto ko sana dun mismo sa comment na nireplyan ko. Mahirap kasi hanapin yung comment kung hundreds na yung comments.

3

Yung chain icon sa Liftoff, sa whole thread ako naredirect.

I think app limitation. Normally sa reply lang dapat since it's a context link.

Never tried Liftoff. Sa web browser (both PC and mobile) lang kasi ako nagbo-browse sa Lemmy.

Nakakita na ba kayo ng mga comic strips na same yung mga panels, pero iniiba lang yung speech bubbles?
