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.

Got the little one a Happy Meal earlier and the toy they have now are Squishmallows. Reminded me of Philemon when I saw it. 😁

TIL that "Ped Xing" means "pedestrian crossing". I've always thought it was a translation of "pedestrian lane" for Chinese people BABAHABAHAHAHAHA

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

Sabi sakin ng Tita ko dati, Chinese translation daw yun ng Pedro Gil. πŸ’€

Didn’t help na may ganung sign sa tapat ng PGH.

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

Tapos yung mga signs na ganyan, mas prominent pa sa touristy areas (like Malate Church/Baywalk, Luneta, etc) πŸ˜‚

Lads and Lasses, the Shamisen, a Japanese three-stringed instrument derived from the Chinese Sanxian. A.K.A. the boss music maker.

This instrument is SCIENTIFICALLY* guaranteed to make any activity (getting on a crowded Jeep/Bus/Train/Elevator) turn into an epic boss fight/one on one situation.

Hell, even this Geisha looks bad-ass, and that's not even a .GIF.

Appropriate BGM .

*Eh, not quite scientific.

Christopher Nolan wants Oppenheimer to be a cautionary tale for Silicon Valley.

Techbro Sam Altman and current CEO of OpenAI:

i was hoping that the oppenheimer movie would inspire a generation of kids to be physicists but it really missed the mark on that.

let's get that movie made!

(i think the social network managed to do this for startup founders.)

I hope Lemmy is smarter than reacting to what the politicians are wearing with "DaMiNg NaGuGuToM sA mUnDo" and understand that their clothes are sponsored by Filipino designers that want publicity and also gives jobs to Marikina shoemakers.

Napanood ko na Barbie from last weekend because my partner wants to watch it. I had low expectations going in the cinema, I came out impressed.

Monday na naman, may typhoon na baka magparamdam na any moment, pinapapasok pa din kami. Lagi na lang ba ganito? I envy other companies who have adapted the WFH-On site hybrid style.

Kill the eX Credits to the owner pala

I thought it was a joke when I saw some posts about it on Mastodon. Looks like Elon's having a manic episode.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

If eventually babaguhin ng mga tao yung "follow us on twirrer" nila, sana magdagdag na sila ng links sa accounts nila sa Fediverse.

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

Kakabasa ko lang kanina nito. Buti na lang umalis na ako sa Twitter, haha. Ma-backup na nga tweets ko sakaling Elon falls off his rocker completely.

Quick insight pls: Partner has been searching my childhood friend's FB account pagtulog ako or busy. Not just a one time thing (total 7 days).

One time hindi kasi ako makatulog (insomnia attack) e tamad na ako maglaro kaya ginamit ko lang phone niya. Random lang nun plus ang hirap talaga matulog. Napansin ko lang na laging nasa recent search yung FB ng childhood friend ko. Curious me- nag-investigate ako (may tiwala naman ako e tsaka alam ko may jowa (we're not that close now) but I just want to know why). Ayun nakita ko ilang beses niya pala siya sinesearch. Hinayaan ko lang yun para less stress pero kanina ang lakas ng kutob ko to borrow his phone so I did. I just saw na last search niya was last night 11:59pm (nakikita recent searches sa settings).

Do you think there is something happening? Kakakita ko lang yun kanina as in kaya mixed emotions na ako. I want to cry pero taena what's happening hahaha :((

For reference, nasa iisang bahay lang kami at iisang kama na hinihigaan :>

Ang daming magagaling na Japanese artist (manga at illustrations) at mga pose reference sa twitter pero nakakalungkot na pumapangit ang quality ng twitter.

TIL there's a thing called Blackout Challenge and I can kinda see why most adults would like kids to stay away from TikTok. It's pretty much auto-erotic asphyxiation... but for kids.

I can already feel Monday is gonna suck.
Edit: Yeah this sucks.

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

Happy Monday!

Today’s Ask PHlemmy: What conspiracy theory is widely believed but clearly not true?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

Flat Earth. I'm astonished how many people close to me still believes that the Earth is flat and that we are prohibited from falling off by an ice wall at the edges.

Anyway, I've been through a conspiracy theorist phase myself (cringe, I know) so I can't really say I'm better than them.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The big pharma conspiracy is to a large extent just complete bollocks imo

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

The conspiracy loses its power more and more, especially with folks like Dr Farrah accusing "big pharma" of exploiting customers for profit while she aggressively attacks debunkers of her mineral and herbal medicines

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

Sindikato raw yung mga namamalimos sa jeep.

Kakatiting lang kita sa "raket" na yan to be a viable business model. And you'll split it with several other people pa? If yung mga sobre nila na may print ang ebidensya mo, that's actually charity by some printing presses. Naaawa sila and it's the least they could do for them.

Kung ayaw mo kasi magbigay (na iligal naman to begin with) then just don't give. Dami mo pa satsat and justification e.

Oh wait mamaya na pala SONA.

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

Duterte isn't going to show up. Pati rin daw si Imelda kasi (accdg. to Sandro) "may COVID pa kahit papano".

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

FPRRD will attend BBM's 2nd SONA

Duterte on the 11th hour: SIKE!

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

Sandro also has the exact runtime of the SONA. He's the Adrian Wojnarowski of Malacanang. πŸ˜…

Marcos' 2nd SONA to last 1 hour and 25 mins

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Kasama na ba riyan ang oras ng pagpalakpak ng bootlickers ni BBM? LMAO

Edit: Oo nga pala, may 3-day state visit siya sa Malaysia bukas. Kawawa naman si BBM, super busy πŸ™ƒ

Marahay na hapon man po saimo!

Baka daw di na uli mag-rehire yung company sa aming position, which means baka kami ay mabawasan ng day off. Hahaha. They do know na alis din kami if they do that, yes? Tangina bahala kayo, basta kami ready to bounce under unfavorable conditions. It's not worth it at that point πŸ˜›

Late nga yung kasama ko so nag timezone na lang ako. I played a zombie shooting game for the first time. I've actually never really played those kinds of games sa arcade kasi parang natatakot ako sa baril (I know it's a toy but like I never really understood how reloading works and then you got all these things wanting to kill you, nakaka panic kaya). And it always seemed like a boys game na never ko maiintindihan nung bata pa ako. It just seemed intimidating overall.

It's my trying new things era. Anyway gets ko na magreload πŸ˜† parang tumaas yung bp ko nung nilaro ko. I was half-shouting while playing kasi ang dami and they're so close tapos ako, 'Aaaah!!! Stay away from me!' goes brrr brrr brrr

Ayun, natatawa lang ako sa sarili ko. Buti na lang ako lang ang witness because that was a rare moment of me freaking out like a girly girl. Masisira ang calm and cool mysterious image ko hshshfks

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

Kinakabahan naman ako dito samin. Nasira ata yung mga outlet sa sala nung nagbrown out. Hindi namin alam kung makakatulog kami nito or ano. Okay lang ba yun na iwanan lang?.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Basta walang naka-plug. Kung alam nyo kung saan sya connected sa circuit breaker then turn it off sa breaker mismo. Pa-check nyo sa electrician as soon as possible.

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

Not wishing anyone something bad to happen to them, but I wonder when would Lemmy solve its first internet case or have its first ARG
