My Jerboa client auto updated to the latest version 😢

Same :((

Posting this from Lemming App instead.

Edit: Now using Liftoff. Not bad.

malamignasanmig Jun 26, 2023

open source ba yung Liftoff? yung Connect hindi pa inoopen ng dev

decadentrebel Jun 26, 2023

I think so. Yung source code nasa Github page nila iirc.

Nandidiri ako tuwing makakita o makarinig ng Pinoy content sa ibang phone. Ang sakit sa tenga.

megane-kun Jun 25, 2023

In fairness to Pinoy content, it's not just because it's Pinoy that irritates me, it's the sound effects they use on top of the irritating humor that they inevitably use.

Di ko rin alam kung bakit naiirita ako tho. Maybe it's some kind of a Pavlovian thing where I've associated those sound effects with irritating content, or it is the sound effects pushing what might otherwise be tolerable content past the line and into irritating territory.

Pancit Canton Jun 25, 2023

Whenever I heard them, I felt like I'm developing myself with misophonia, and this is me enjoying white noise for meditation or whenever I'm bored.

lechekaflan Jun 25, 2023

pati na rin sa local TV, especially GMA.

And radio.

Have to remind myself that one's irritant maybe another person's sense (and quality level) of humor.

megane-kun Jun 25, 2023

Have to remind myself that one’s irritant maybe another person’s sense (and quality level) of humor.

Yeah, and due to how prevalent (or my perception of it being prevalent) it is in stuff aimed towards Filipinos, I have this feeling that my own sensibilities are just not in tune with the rest of the country's.

Pancit Canton Jun 26, 2023

I have this feeling that my own sensibilities are just not in tune with the rest of the country’s.

This is soo me. Most of the time, I read articles from AP News (or global news), or whatever marereceive ko sa email (from Inquirer o sa Viber notifications), and watch film/pop culture analysis videos from overseas. Recently I accidentally sent an email to my ex-friend. She replied "English yarn!!" I asked, "anong yarn?" Damn.... and I'm 25.

megane-kun Jun 26, 2023

Hahahaha!‌ Ouch!

But yeah, it really depends on the (online or IRL) company we keep eh.

I think I'm not as bad when it comes to colloquial Filipino and its slang terms, but had I not been with people in touch with those things, I might as well be a foreigner with Filipino blood, who lived all my life in here the Philippines.

Pancit Canton Jun 26, 2023

I'd never listened to local radio since I subscribed to Spotify a decade ago, until I landed on Apple Music with their free radios (mostly mainstream and featured artists lang naman). Haha

megane-kun Jun 26, 2023

I used to listen to a lot of AM radio in my childhood (lalo na kung "brownout", lol!), but recently, I'm the same as well. However, in times of disaster (typhoons, earthquakes, or man-made emergencies), I sometimes find myself looking for news coverathrough my cellphone's radio app.

Call me old-fashioned or whatever, but iba pa rin kasi ang feeling nung makakarinig ka ng breaking news reports sa radyo eh.

Other than that, my local radio listening has gone down to almost nil in the past handful of years.

Pancit Canton Jun 26, 2023

When my favorite FM radio station (Pure FM, from the province. Literally pure pop songs and sometimes classic pop every 9PM) shut down, dun na ako gradually nawalan ng interes sa radyo.

rman0159 Jun 26, 2023

Even Indian comedy videos on YT are also doing those sound effects. Very cringey.

megane-kun Jun 26, 2023

I didn't know that. Thanks for the additional perspective. It's too easy for me to think of it as a "cringe Pinoy thing" since that's what I'm exposed to.

Periwinkledot Jun 26, 2023

Na-log out yung Reddit account ko kahapon. Hanggang ngayon di ko pa rin nalo-log in kasi nakalimutan ko password at nakakatamad magreset 😁

Why I use KeePass.

Dr. B Jun 26, 2023

I use Bitwarden

Bitwarden users, assemble! Haha

eyyyyy. Grabeng ginhawa talaga ng buhay ko dahil dito haha. mamats Bitwarden

Kahit saang ecosystem, iisang lugar lang mga password.

Reporting from KeePassXC here.

Setting things up for seamless interoperability with mobile and PC might be a bit of a pain, but it's really a breeze after that.

ein sof Jun 26, 2023

the concerns using 3rd party for saving your login credential is kinda risky. since a possible leak may occur at may mga service provider na nagkaroon na ng ganung sitwasyon

for me I just use Firefox sync

The authentication key is transmitted to the server to prove that you own the account. If TLS fails, this might cause the authentication key to be leaked, and someone who intercepts this key could use it to authenticate into your account. However, they can’t use it to access your Firefox Sync data since the encryption key is used to encrypt your data before it leaves your device. This key is never transmitted to the server, so it can’t be leaked if TLS fails.

megane-kun Jun 26, 2023

As far as I am aware, for KeePassXC, the database file is handled locally and it's your responsibility where you'd store your password database file. This password database file is encrypted (when using a master password) and so personally, I'm comfortable putting a synchronized copy onto cloud storage (which also makes it easier syncing across the PC and my mobile devices).

I assume that this is true for KeePass as well, though I‌ be wrong.

From the KeePassXC FAQ:

Why is there no cloud synchronization feature built into KeePassXC?

Cloud synchronization with Dropbox, Google Drive, OneDrive, ownCloud, Nextcloud etc. can be easily accomplished by simply storing your KeePassXC database inside your shared cloud folder and letting your desktop synchronization client do the rest. We prefer this approach, because it is simple, not tied to a specific cloud provider and keeps the complexity of our code low.

and from a different section of the same FAQ:

If you sync your database via a cloud provider (Dropbox, Google Drive, Nextcloud, …), you should only sync the KDBX file and distribute the key file to your computers by different means, such as said thumb drive.

And from their user guide:

The database file that is protected with a strong and long password is secure and encrypted while stored on your computer or cloud storage service.

...

‌ You can safely store your database file in the cloud (OneDrive, Dropbox, Google Drive, Nextcloud, Syncthing, etc.). The database file is always fully encrypted; unencrypted data is never written to disk and is never accessible to your cloud storage provider. We recommend using a storage service that keeps automatic backups (version history) of your database file in the event of corruption or accidental deletion.

I also use a key file to make sure that I'm only accessing my password database on devices I own (to which I copy the key file manually).

Well, I suppose there's still some danger, in which case, I think a fully-local syncing solution (something mediated through Syncthing, I guess) can be set up. To be honest, I could have gone that route, but I didn't bother. I just felt safe enough to store my password database on the cloud, trusting that it's sufficiently secured via encryption (and that I have a secure enough master password).

Anong powdered milk brand nyo sa bahay?

Bear brand kasi samin pero gusto ko nang magpalit because fucknestle. Di ko na gusto yung Alaska, parang iba na yung lasa. Yung Birch Tree naman matabang, mas malapit sa skimmed milk yung lasa.

Gusto kong magchamporado bukas.

willnever_fadeaway Jun 26, 2023

used to have Anchor at home and for me it's the right blend of powdered milk

https://business.inquirer.net/407127/biz-buzz-remolona-drops-us-citizenship

After spending a good part of his illustrious career on foreign soil—14 years at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and 19 years at the Bank for International Settlements, among others—newly appointed Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) Governor Eli Remolona was ready to return to the Philippines and contribute what he can to nation-building.

Remolona was so serious about his intent to give back to the country that he gave up his American citizenship with the help of Finance Secretary Benjamin Diokno, a colleague from their early days at the School of Economics of the University of the Philippines.

Like many Filipino professionals based abroad, Remolona held dual citizenship. But now, he is solely a Filipino citizen.

Some people would call him crazy to give up what they thought is the ultimate privilege card. However, it remains to see how well he would perform as the BSP chief.

Anyone here plays guitar? When should you get maintenance on your guitar's frets? I noticed that some frets have dents, but I don't really notice much chance in sounds, just a slight buzz if I press the strings too hard.

monknonoke Jun 26, 2023

Naumpisahan ko na rin ang One Piece kaso mas type ko ata yung manga over the anime. Or maybe wala lang ako sa mood manood at mas gusto ko lang magbasa.

I also started on Dr. Stone. Crush ko ba si Senku? I think I'd rather be his apprentice but yes he's cool.

Rengoku pa din number one 🤩🔥

I'm almost done with my meds and I feel better now. Hay salamat.

chemeners12 Jun 26, 2023

Naalala ko tuloy dati binalak ko rin panoorin yang One Piece para lang may mapag-usapan kami ng dati kong katalkingstage hahaha.

Viola Jun 26, 2023

Napanood nyo na ba trailer nung live action ng One Piece? Whatchu think?

decadentrebel Jun 26, 2023

Not familiar with One Piece, but I hope that it doesn't become a dud like Cowboy Bebop.
