Mabuhay at maligayang pag-alis sa Lemmy! โœˆ๏ธ


An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ญ


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.

Last day of the work week!

Todayโ€™s Ask PHlemmy: What are you SICK of people constantly telling you?

[โ€“] decadentrebel 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I hate the "maraming hindi kumakain/maraming nagugutom sa mundo" remark and I really wish the future generations would not adopt it to their lexicon.

Also, as a diabetic, I'm sick and tired of hearing people ask "pwede ba sayo yan?" when they see me eating something sweet.

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

maraming hindi kumakain

Ang go-to response ko dito (di ko sure kung kanino ko to unang narinig) is, โ€œBakit, pag kinain ko ba โ€˜to, mabubusog na sila?โ€

mag-asawa ka na

[โ€“] had0ken 5 points 1 year ago

May girlfriend ka na? (I'm gay and currently in a same-sex relationship. I'm in the closet in my family circle) Kailan ka magaasawa? Kailangan mo na magka-anak.

I get most of this questions from my boomer generation family...

You'll be okay. You're strong.

I'm not okay, and it won't make me feel any better. Let me be weak for once.

inb4 Redditors still using Reddit. Protest or no protest, if these mdfkrs still giving web traffic on Reddit, spez still gaining PR and $$$.

Right now, this is just a junk entertainment.

Not gonna participate there after what happened recently. We can all agree on that. It isn't special anymore if they keep doing the same thing yearly

[โ€“] mr_m00 6 points 1 year ago

Time to use a password manager.

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Seconding the recommendation to use a password manager. Top recommendation from this community seems to be Bitwarden, but I'll throw in my recommend for KeePassXC as well.

Password manager na yan. Browser or third-party, both can generate random characters and encrypt your password vault. If you don't mind making folders and organize, then browser's built-in is enough, or else go for Bitwarden or Keepass 2

Good morning! Sana maging masaya tayong lahat ๐Ÿ™‚

[โ€“] monknonoke 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I started trying 'thrilling' sports for the excitement of it, but it seems like it ended up calming me instead ๐Ÿ˜† isn't it interesting?

It's good to try new and different things. I feel that I've started to learn new things about myself (which tbh I thought there was not much to learn more anymore). When I reflect on all of it together, I get this little lightbulb moment and for a moment in time I think I just got a moment wiser hahaha.

For example, I knew that I have this nagmamadaling personality but I never really knew what to do with it. I consider it a flaw for myself, actually.

Now, I get it. I had to temper it out, and doing these sports is helping a lot to temper it. I think it's beautiful. Para akong binigyan ng chance to work on myself some more in a different way.

Seriously, I think I'm becoming more genuinely patient and I'm not just not minding it. It's amazing. I'm really glad and thankful while I'm writing this at 3-4am.

Off to the next adventure~~

Good decision completing the Barbenheimer marathon with Barbie. Way better than I expected.

Also, to the phlemmy that asked the other day if it was going to have commentaries on consumerism and all that: Yes, it does.

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I wasn't really expecting Barbie to be that way. I thought Gerwig/Baumbach sold themselves out with this franchise, but they turned 180. Margot Robbie? Damn, after a decade, still a bomb.

[โ€“] decadentrebel 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

They pretty much showed that Barbie was hated by everyone, particularly women for setting feminism back haha. Di ko inexpect that Mattel was going to allow that.

Tapos dami pa mga hamfisted digs on men... na totoo naman, lmao.

Edit: TIL that Matchbox 20's Push was misogynistic. Ngayon lang nag-click sa akin as an adult. Chorus lang kasi alam ko.

My Bitwarden is unable to sync for days now Error Code 7. I recently updated my online bank account's at email account at nalaman ko na lang na hindi naka-sync ang updated credential nung na-lock ang bank account ko.

Balik na lang siguro ako sa built-in password manager ng Firefox. Maga-apat na taon na ako sa BW, eh, and perfect timing ngayong Sunday na mae-expire Premium ko.

[โ€“] heliosef 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I've read about the error code 7 issue before from this forum and it seems to be related to the BW backend temp blocking IP ranges when it triggers "unusual activity" flags, whatever that means for them.

Switching IP addresses is a potential solution, either from a router reset or via choosing a different endpoint via VPN. Or just waiting for the temp block to be released, but who knows how long a wait that's going to be.

On one hand, I can see how their current solution has potentially saved a ton of accounts from being compromised. On the other, it really prevents the application from it's intended use for most people who don't have VPN or don't have any control over the public IP they're connected to.

I'm worried too about when this issue hits me, so I'm tempted now to self-host a private BW backend instance. But that's a whole slew of things that I really don't want to have to manage.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I've tried setting up my network back to default and solved nothing. I spent $5.50 for Mullvad VPN to change IP address, and still nothing.

Self-hosting is kinda steep on my monthly budget.

[โ€“] heliosef 4 points 1 year ago

Yeah, it might not be worth it effort and price-wise.

Yung mga junior high kids today, mas pro-choice na pala ngayon. It's a pleasant surprise. As a kid, I was against abortion and euthanasia.

Pero sa klase lang ba ng pamangkin ko yun na nasa isang science high school or ganun din sa iba? Naging debate exercise kasi nila yung overturning ng Roe vs Wade.

Nagstart na akong mag-apply. Gusto ko naman ung current company ko, ung client, ung colleagues, ung culture, at ung sahod. Ayoko ko lang nung trabaho ko ngayon. Feeling ko lalong pumupurol ung skills ko. Nagsabi naman ako sa boss ko na ayoko na nung role kaso parang walang mangyayari. Sad.

Came upon this video (piped) and damn gusto ko lang nakaupo, drinking whiskey, looking at the skyline.

Have a good one, Phlemmings!

Sayang yung goal ni Gillou para sa Puzakals, offside

2-0 for Switzerland (Piubel 64'), that was painful as this was from a quick Swiss attack
