What separates Lemmy and Reddit is that you don’t have to overthink what you post, lol. I can just say what I want and not worry about adding receipts to whatever I say, whether I got my facts right, or do I come off bad. If edits need to be made, you can go back later in the day when you’re free because no one would be reading it until after a week anyway LMAO. I believe there are also logs that allow others to check what you edited. So while commenting here interrupts work, it doesn’t take more than a few minutes to do unlike in Reddit when it would literally take half an hour or so.
I still use Reddit daily for browsing non-PH news and happenings, but I completely stopped posting. Every once in a while I’ll try to comment something but delete it immediately after. I realized that replying and posting ate up a huge chunk of my time and often derail my momentum when working, so I don’t really miss it. But at the same time, posting my thoughts is an outlet and it’s also nice to revisit to see where my headspace was at a particular point. As an alternative, I just post it on my FB feed and set it to “Only Me”.
It doesn’t help that r/PH is a shit-show echo chamber now, mostly because of the users. Nakaka-turnoff yung mga matapobre, antinatalists, eugenicists, and low-effort threads. I haven’t been there for a week pero pustahan mga posts diyan tungkol na naman sa pinipilit sila magperform sa Christmas Party tapos pag malapit na bagong taon sasabihin nila ang lakas lakas magpatunog ng tambutso hulugan naman daw yung motor. They’re seriously just as bad as the bastards on FB’s comment sections.
That said, I’m happy it all played out the way it did. I was able to get UndustFixation started, able to finish some of my PS5 backlogs, go out of the country for the first time since 2012, and I’m bonding with my daughter now through our shared interest in blind boxes (she got me into it actually lol).
Jeez, triangle pa rin pala system ni Tim. Some old heads have modified their coaching styles (Pop most notably) to keep up with the times, but he’s still clinging on to an archaic system. But it works, so good for him and Gilas.
Josh Howard was canceled back in 2008 for saying he doesn’t celebrate the Star Spangled Banner because he’s black… 10+ years later and doing that is cool.
Parang MLM lang, lmao.
Lots of school shootings way before Columbine and for some reason it’s credited as the one that started it all.
Wearing a trench coat to conceal the rifle he was carrying
Ang mahal pala ng .ph domain pag nirerenew. That’s the trap I wasn’t able to read up on. Not a problem anyway kasi wala ako balak irenew lemmy domain.
This protest was beyond a joke, it’s a farce. lol.

Bam Aquino, gross. I’m never writing that conservative cuck on my ballot.
And then after a month or two, the movie you enjoyed watching and want to see again is no longer available. That’s one reason why most people still buy physical media or sail the high seas.
Yung lalagyan ng condiments yung pagkain (calamansi with pancit or hot sauce sa pizza) and deciding for everyone when they could just take their own portion and apply it there. As someone who hates putting anything on my food, it pisses me the f off.
Hindi naman gagawa ng malaking reactor. Small modular reactors (SMR) yung balak i-deploy ng Meralco kaya mabilis lang and safer kasi less risk. We have scientists sa PNRI who are already managing a reactor na larger in comparison.
That said, feasibility study pa lang naman… which was reported late last year din. It’s completely theoretical. If anything, ang worry natin dapat sa politicians should be that they’re old, ignorant, and resistant. Haharangin nila arbitrarily yung nuclear energy out of fear kasi “meltdown this” or “san ilalagay that” when those aren’t applicable (or grossly overstated with regards) to SMRs. Or worse (way worse!) yung mga lackeys ni Duterte that want the BNPP reopened and reused for this purpose.
Mind you, hindi lang sa mga obvious na bugok sa senado applicable yung worry na yan. Even the lone decent senator we have, Risa Hontiveros, is trumpeting the same BS as most people. Fucking JV Ejercito is actually the sane person regarding this! Surprisingly kasi he’s not pushing for BNNP reopening but to follow PNRI’s lead.
As usual, fear-mongering na naman sa social media. Corruption this, incompetent that. As if naman mga politician magpapatakbo nung reactor or soviet-era infra gagamitin.
And off the top of my head, anong project ba natin ang natuloy that ended up endangering the lives of people?? Mga corruption scandals natin sa infra usually involve unconstitutionality (such as overpricing, preferred bidders sa ZTE scandal), may mga umaalma na sectors (fisherfolks in Laguna involving the scrapped megadike highway), or just poorly designed but not hazardous (footbridges).
The plant will be handled by scientific experts with modern construction materials and mindsets. Not to mention na micro modular plant gagawin. Pinagsasabi niyo diyan na Chernobyl at Fukushima, lmao.
He was one of the best parts of that show and one of the most memorable reality show villains ever. I recommend watching the series on YT.
YOU AIN’T GOT NO HO-NOR!
I’m not sure of the site schematics, but wouldn’t you die of smoke inhalation on most fires? If so, you’d be dead long before the flames touch you. There’s some discomfort for sure, but it’s worth considering over a long plummet to your death.
Like you, I’m not into the entries you mentioned. So, I try to post “oddly fascinating” articles as much as possible, and even tweaking the premise of this community on the sidebar to cut down on comments saying that it’s “not creepy”.
Some of my favorites are: Shell Grotto, Wooden Spoons Museum, HitchBOT, Fremont Troll, Kryptos, Michael Larson, and Georgia Guidestones. There’s more on our pinned list.
There is an infamous movie about this called Ai no Corrida/In The Realm of the Senses mostly known for the unsimulated sex and yes, it does have the castration scene. But as a film, it’s surprisingly good and has a depressing story.
I built one for my wife a few years ago. It sounds and feels amazing (as is the case with most Owlabs keyboards) but I could never get comfortable with it because I’m a two-finger typist.
Weikav would later release a ripoff of it for 4.5k called Record. Hindi ko pa natry pero may mga Weikav na ako binuo before for my sisters who wanted a decent cheap keeb and okay naman.
