Mabuhay at maligayang pag-alis sa Lemmy! ✈️


An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! 🇵🇭


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.

Tonight's Ask PHLemmy: What is a situation you have almost no sympathy with?

[–] decadentrebel 1 points 1 year ago

People who get scammed by Axie, crypto, financial advisors, MLM, "KuNg MaY pRoBleMa Ka SaBiHiN mO lAnG sA aKiN" sweet talk, laglag-barya, and other schemes.

Damn, Qualcomm anonymously, aggresively collects data from our device. Kaya lumago sila.

So apparently may tesla showroom sa manila which got me thinking EV drivers will probably face stigma of receiving special treatment sa malls cause may reserved parking spot sila sa malls

[–] decadentrebel 3 points 1 year ago

Parking slots for EVs in malls are only few, though. Like 2-3 at most.

The real advantage is they have exemption sa coding. I know the intention is to incentivize going electric, but since ang mahal mahal ng EV (unlike in other countries in which they offer subsidies), it just comes off as pandering to the privileged again.

Ang ganda talaga ni Karmina Constantino, walang kupas. But going back to the topic, this is a good segment on number coding being useless and alternative solutions to traffic.

May carpooling pa nalalaman as if silang mga politiko willing umalis sa SUV nila na sila lang karga, lmao.

If I recall correctly they banned a German car pooling app here in the Philippines some time ago, I forget it's name.

Carpooling and bikelanes

I can't help but notice public transport isn't on the list classic PH politicians private sector ang magaadjust

Napa-bisita ako sa kabila, at first time ko ito nabasa o nakita. AFAIK, banks offer payroll solutions for medium and large businesses.

So bakit gagamit o magtiwala sa third-party solutions when it comes to finances?

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

Banks are technicaly third party solutions though ang mali lang nila inasa nila something as big as payroll sa digital bank to make matters worse some unheard of third party pa yung pinili

Kung may malaking business ako, ayaw kong ipagkatiwala ang payroll ko sa service na walang physical appearance. Ang hirap nga i-reach out ni UnionBank (online account) at Komo Eastwest na savings account lang, payroll pa kaya.
