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.

Today’s Ask PHlemmy: What is something you wish you had known a decade ago?

[–] heliosef 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I was on r/ when people were giving away Bitcoin via tipping bots to anyone curious. All you had to do was claim it. Everyone was happy to introduce the concept to anyone who'd listen. Well, I wish I did.

same, saw that bitcoin a long time ago and it was free, wish I could've grabbed some then

[–] decadentrebel 2 points 1 year ago

Hypothetically speaking, if you got in on bitcoins super early (to the point that it's free), will you liquidate all of them? Keep a few and sell? Or hold on everything?

I noticed that some local properties allow BTC as payment now, so that's one way of moving it.

Reddit, Bitcoin, advanced Excel skills

Just discovered the Probe Archives today (thanks to the viral post about Chynna Ortaleza's throwback) and ang dami nila mga classic clips from Probe Team and 5&Up. I love this 1988 feature on the Tasaday tribe the most. At the time, hindi pa definitively proven na hoax siya although it's mentioned that some professors doubt the story.

I vividly remember Chynna and Angel Locsin being newbies in show business back then when they were part of Click, the old GMA show.

Ugh. This makes me feel ancient. Aside from, you know, actually being ancient.

Inannounce na pamalit ng Reddit sa rewards - Community Points.

tl,dr: You earn tokens by posting/moderating which can be exchanged for premium features.

So in other words, mas lalo pa dadami mga "What is your favorite baon nung elementary" and anything that has "toxic" now that you actually get "paid" to karma farm.

So this is their version of company scrip for the mods.

It'll also lead to worst discussion since what normally gets upvoted are joke responses rather than serious ones.

Gusto ko lumandi at makipag date kaso iniisip ko kailangan ko magpaganda, mag make up, do something with my hair, dress well at kung ano-ano pa. Ang daming gagawin like some sort of ritual.

Basta ang effort tapos iniisip ko pa lang pagod na ako lol. I'm better off with my hobbies na, ok, actually physically tiring but at least sure ako enjoy ko. I feel energised thinking about it.

Even if I do start something with someone feeling ko it will just have the same ending katulad nung mga previous: napagod ako. Maybe people just exhaust me ganun. My responding to people on time has totally fallen off the wagon.

It's me, hi, I'm the problem it's me

Sabi ni friend I just have to find someone compatible sakin. Can't really tell if those are just words of comfort or friend means it πŸ€”

pasintabi sa mga kumakain HAHAHA .

still remember this one time a semi-posh kikay classmate asked me

!atom, nakahawak ka na ba ng tae?!<

!and my naive younger self instinctively responded with (ew wtf?) hmm, hindi pa bakit?!<

!then she goes "e pano ka naghuhugas ng pwet?"!<

!then she smiled slightly laughing at my shitty realization after dropping that crappy bait as though she wasn't one you would see as considerably hot πŸ˜…!<

I think I need to clean my Youtube watch history. I keep getting Youtube Shorts with content I'd rather skip and marking the channel with Do Not Rec is useless since it's always a different channel. I'd rather penalize channels that feature Rogan, Tate, and their ilk.

[–] decadentrebel 2 points 1 year ago

I get Rogan a lot, too. Maybe because I watch UFC videos.

I love ØV at first sight but I love her more for dragging Verushska.
