New random discussion thread is up! Click here to go there now.
Sa 2034 eligible na si Jay Som tumakbo as president and will win because of her surname, lmao.
I don’t even know who that is. Is that a good thing?
It’s tongue in cheek. Duterte kasi last name niya. Will get a ton of votes kinda like Francis Leo Marcos when he ran for senate.
Can’t believe we’ll elected Duterte three times in our lifetime.
Olivia would be Baebae Digong.

Regional pricing for Sync is in effect!

I’ll stick with Thunder and supporting my instance, but I am glad that Sync is driving more users to Lemmy.
May hide read button na ba si thunder? Last nakita ko mark as read lang. Pero if meron might be my backup app main is voyager.
Wala pa sa last na ginamit ko pero consistent and avtive naman and devs and contributors mag add ng features so for sure mailalagay yun as feature sometime in the near future
Much more reasonable. It’s five times the price of Sync Pro (for reddit), but it feels more like a safe bet if I end up using Sync for Lemmy for at least five years.
Reasonable. Sync Pro for Reddit for PHP 50 really felt like a steal.
That’s way more reasonable.
Actually not bad and I might subscribe if only to support the dev. Still no regional pricing on Ultra, though.

Na appreciate ko yung titles ng works ni Antipas, lalo na dito. I just had to say.

Pero ang random post ko talaga, na unrelated sa painting, ay about cliches. Nakakasawa.

PC builders, what’s a good upgrade path for my old PC? My budget is P30k, here are the specs:

CPU: i3-8100 Mobo: B360 GPU: 1060 6GB RAM: 16 GB 2400 MHz DDR4 Monitor: Asus 60 Hz 24", VZ249HE yata PSU: Seasonic S12II 520w

Secondhand only sana except sa PSU, at ayoko sana magpalit ng mobo muna unless malaki diperensya sa performance. Iniisip ko baka bumili nalang ako ng i7-8700 + RTX 3070 + 650w brand new PSU tapos to follow nalang yung monitor upgrade sa pasko haha. Mukhang kaya naman sa budget pero baka may alam kayo na mas optimal sa P30k hard limit.

Salamat guys

Pati ba monitor papalitan mo? That’s the one part that will unnecessarily eat into your budget.
Yes pero di naman priority ngayon, pwede naman iomit muna
Super thanks to u/jcg for being able to whip up a bot that could autopost the RD thread. We’ll see it in action later tonight. :)
btw what happened to yaya bot and why don’t I see a daily topic here?

There is. It’s just not synched with other instances.

ah, lemmy.world must have broke again
Lemm.ee has problems syncing with World. Even threads I post from it hasn’t even showed up here in World after days, if not never.
Discuss.online has the same problem. My posts using that instance account did not reflect here.
It’s probably a .world problem, from what I’ve seen.
Sa ibang fedi platform or sa ibang instance?
phtn.app isama na sa list of apps

poops in the office…

feeling ko nakakaka sobrang lamang ako sa iba…

good morning!!!

Acting is limiting, the line’s not mine

That’s no help to the Philippines

Can we assume then that you’ll quit?

Is this because of your involvement with Colonel Peron?

Didn’t know Pixel phones are available in brick and mortar stores here.

Are 5G bands here unlocked in the Philippines for pixels or region locked from pixel exclusive features? Philippines is not included in the list of supported countries.
Nope. You have to root it for 5G to work based on what I’ve read from those who bought Pixels from the grey market.

Sana pala sinunod ko yung nakalagay dati sa Bazooka bubble gum:

If you play by the rules, don’t complain if you lose.

Listening to

  • High Elf Tomb (mainly ,the first three are World of Warcraft: Legion/Suramar zone music)
  • Moon Rising
  • Suramar
maganda rin soundtrack ng 0AD. did not expect much from a free game but it is good!

Hindi ko mahanap kung may active KPop community sa lemmy, so dito na lang.

Buong araw ko na nire-repeat ung Fast Forward by Somi. Natanggal na nya ang 2weeks LSS ko sa ETA by NewJeans

Squabblr is now a “free speech” platform that only draws the line on racism. Everything else is fair game because apparently the owner is known to make LBTQ insults. Those who disagreed were removed.
Squabblr now officiall a "free speech" cesspool, admins removed or forced out by owner - Lemmy.world

So I mean, most of us knew this beforehand and being on the fediverse we probably do not really care, but what was always on the horizon has no happened, the owner of Squabblr finally had enough having to be a decent person and has decided that his site is now “free speech purism”, so he gets to continue to insult LGBTQ people like he always does. Seems from the comments that some other admins disagreed with the decision (so there were some decent people on that site!) and either left or were removed. Not entirely surprising the whole thing, granted.

It’s one of the reasons why I was hesitant trying out a non-federated site. There’s a risk that it’s just going to another Voat. Tildes lang yata yung clear sa goal nila about creating a better culture than Reddit.

Finally, I got my mom to use Signal Private Messenger

Mae-enjoy niya.

Signal Messenger: Speak Freely

Say "hello" to a different messaging experience. An unexpected focus on privacy, combined with all of the features you expect.

Signal Messenger
Ganda ng Bottom-Tier Character Tomozaki-kun light novels. One of my recommendations if you like high school slice-of-life light novels or if you just enjoy things like Oregairu or Rascal Does Not Dream of Bunny Girl Senpai. Tinapos ko yung ten volumes ng Tomozaki-kun in three days HAHAHA

AITA dahil hindi ko pinautang ung relative ko?

Marunong naman sya magbayad at laging nagbabayad on or before nung sinabi nyang date kaso pagod na ako. ATM ako ng pamilya. Ako halos gumagastos ng lahat. Pag may mga kailangan ako nagbibigay, pag kapos, ako, lagi akong utangan. Pagod na akong maging banko. Kahit hindi lang ako ang may trabaho, ako pa din kasi ako ung may malaking sweldo at marunong humawak ng pera. Lagi na lang sinasabihan na kawawa naman daw ung iba kong relatives.

Pagod lang akong maging ATM ng kung sino-sino kaya hindi ako nagpautang. Kailangan nya ung pera at sigurado naman akong magbabayad sya pero PAGOD NA AKO.

Always set boundaries and set a max amount that you’re willing to lend (or lose since the risk is always there).
Nagbabayad naman ng utang on time kaya 0 risk. Nakakapagod lang talagang maging utangan. Ayoko na maging ATM.
