Today’s Ask PHlemmings: What’s something that you wish you still had?
- Energy to do things that I really wanted to do before. Ngayon po super dami nang responsibilities sa life 🙃🙃 that I don't have the time nor the energy to do them fully
- my ignorance. having hurt, failed and disappointed a lot caused me to become scared of trying new things , meeting people and etc.
- Yun ex ko haha
- my youth 😭😭😭😭
- A sense of optimism. Not being emo ("everything is hopeless!"), but I'm referring to being a lot less jaded.
  But then again, okay na siguro yan. Kasi sabi nila, ang umaasa, nasasaktan. 😅

What the fuck, makdo??
- Mmm. Medyo nagka tiny crisis ako dahil sa pic mo.
  Ite-trade ko ba ang sesame seeds ng bun para sa mas malapad na patty?
  Nahihirapan ako magdecide.
  
  Ito ba pambato ni Makdo kay Jabee's Chickenwich? Eww

Did you guys retain your username from Reddit?
Nagdadalawang isip ako whether I should just make a new account with a new username. I still like my username that's why I wanna keep it. But at the same time some people I know in person already knows my Reddit username so my pseudo-anonymity is somehow "compromised".
How about you guys, did you use your old usernames? And why?
- I did. Mostly so those coming in here know it's us and they won't end up on the tankie side of Lemmy, lol.
  
  Was actually a good idea and it made a lot of sense for r/ph mods. I actually just randomly stumbled upon this instance without being guided from Reddit so nung nakakita ako familiar names, I felt kind of at home. Not to mention yung banners and the sidebar info are similar.
- Hindi kasi corny lumang username ko
- well my user name is actually common, baka maunahan pa ako eh
  ein means nothing, zero
  sof means finite
  so ein sof means infinite
  kayo ba anu meaning behind your user name?
  
  Mine's a play on "seek and destroy"
  That's it.
- iiba ako at magno-no. new platform, new self. chz!
- Yes. This is my username from Reddit as well as the now defunct Pinoyexchange.
  
  PEx users represent!
  
  ow I remember mga butas at ipis tricks hahahaha, sana nagets mo hahahaah
- Yes. Para hindi na ko mahirapan mag-isip lol
  
  I think this makes the most sense. Haha! Kahit ako ayaw ko magpalit kaso ayun nga. People know me by my username. Di ko alam sino nagkalat nun within my circle so I feel a little bit more vulnerable. Haha!
- Yes. Kasi supot si $pd and makikipagsuntukan ako sa kanya. As I gloat over him in a victorious pose, I will make sure he remembers the name.

Si Kai Sotto maglalaro para sa Orlando sa NBA Summer League. Handa nang ulamin ang munggo.
- That man is overhyped it's affecting his career, prolly beat the shit out of himself when he didn't meet the expectation of people.

Ahihi cute ng pinoy surprised pikachu

Loving the new logo there
- agree. bigyan ng jakie chan kung sino man gumawa nyan

Miss ko na server friends. Huhu kung nababasa niyo 'to, sana okay lang kayo. <3
- Sana okay ka rin 🫶

Wemby era begins
- Postponed na naman retirement ni Pop. Fourth na ba to?
  First time dahil need panghatak kay LMA. Second dahil kay Kawhi. Third dahil na-byudo sya. Fourth dahil kay Wemby?

Looks like there's a new Android app for Lemmy called Connect for Lemmy. May baka-try na ba sa inyo?
- Just tried it. No-nonsense reader with a lot of limitations and still rough around the edges, but there's promise.
  It kinda gives you a flavor of what something like Sync (or the other Reddit apps) would look like once they dip their toes on Lemmy.
- Tried it and it still needs more polish and functionality, but otherwise it's fine. Looking forward to its development
- Testing it now. Mas madali sundan yung thread ng replies dito kaysa Jerboa.
- yung dark masyado paring maliwanag, okay siya at may blur para sa nsfw, markdown formating wala di kagaya ng jerboa, for me 3/5

Saktanan ng puso with Maisie Peters na namaaaaan
- Salamat sa heads up na out na yung album. Time to download FLACs!

Just turned 20 today

SHABU 🙏

Ay di ko alam kung pano magpost ng image sa bagong Android app for Lemmy...
Anyways, kainis ung mga app na ayaw sumunod sa aesthetic ko.
- BDO: "Fuck you, I'm special. Leave me alone."
- send a request sa developer nung icon pack na gamit mo
- Ganun talaga pag local app walang icon, haha. Kaya minsan nagmi-mix and match ako ng packs. Kahit hindi sakto basta anything but the default icon.
  
  for me its using Icon Pack Studio/ Icon Pack Creator/ Icon Pack Mixer, pag ayaw magpabago gamitan ko ng Pinned Shortcuts

[Grief] Reality of girls gathering in Kabukicho "To-yoko" "In addition to overdose, the spread of illegal drugs"
Here is the serious spread of cannabis and illegal drugs in To-Yoko, and the appearance of a girl who is not going around with the rhetoric...
Goddamn. Cute pero sobra ng amats.

New banner up to reflect the rainy season!

Had some errands to do tapos sinamahan ako ng kapatid ko. Grabe ang bagal namin maglakad nagjoke kapatid ko parang naglalakad lang kami sa park tapos inaalalayan pa ako 😆 hilo at pagod na kasi ako.
I feel so weak di ako sanay 🥲 anyway...may excuse na ako para hindi umattend ng team building at inuman.
Yung hilo ko talaga...doc try naman ng ibang gamot feeling ko so-so lang effect nito. Ugh I can't focus on shit 😖

  hamster din yun logo and name nun isang popular site

I can't sleep. :(
- I can't sleep either, but that's because I'm at work.

Mull vs Mozilla Firefox in mobile? ano sa tingin niyo mas better
- Kung naka-Firefox ka rin sa desktop at gusto mo i-sync sa phone mo, then choose Firefox Mobile.
  
  mukhang meron din naman pero di ko pa alam kung gumagana, yung isang cp ko brave nightly padin mas mabilis tlga brave para sakin, kaya ko lang ininstallan ng mull kasi di na pde yung new versions ng brave d2 sa sony

- 💀wtf

Yey Friday naaaaaaa

Daig pa sa napanis na pansit. 🤡

WTF we did to piss off Colombia?

Namimiss ko nang magbasa ng mga tunay na life-changing tips at "nOt To bRaG bUT to InsPiRe" na post sa r/buhaydigital. Ano na bang balita doon?
- https://teddit.net/r/buhaydigital/comments/14eoj5k/earned_php15m_in_less_than_8_months_speaking_into/
  
  Thanks for the link! These are actually good tips! Ganyan sana, may sustansya yung post ni OP.

Boring na ng yt wala mapanood, may marerekomenda ba kayong channel my niche is Infotainment, Gaming preferably horror genre, Personal Development, Non-fiction books and Literatures, Rabbit Holes/True Crime Stories, former niche that I might like again if recommended good channel: Bodybuilding/Calisthenics, Climate Change, Linux and FOSS/Privacy advocates
- Andrew Huberman - Good content, backs up the topic with helpful studies mostly on things neuroscience (dopamine, etc.)
  Soft White Underbelly Interviews with people from underprivileged/criminal/unsavory backgrounds (i.e. Addicts, Pimps, Homeless people, etc.) Great watch to see perspectives of people in situations we often view as negative. There's a mix of some good people in there as well who were just part of a nasty system.
  TABI-IE - Vlog of a Japanese person who lives (comfortably) in a camper van of some sort. Nice views, and some of the gear he used are actually (to me) a viable option for when maabutan ako ng traffic lmao. Sort of a slice of life, and issues you run into with this kind of housing setup.
  Bryan Johnson - Tech Billionaire who spends millions on fighting against father time (aka aging). He records every method, every diet, and every procedure as meticulously as he can on his channel and his website. He sorta comes off as vain, but just focus on the info you learn from the videos.
  SCP Explained - Story & Animation - Animation and storytelling is a hit and miss for some, but if you want a sort of entertaining audiobook white noise on SCPs, this is a good channel to listen in to. They have a mix of short and long stories, as well as collaboration content, if that's the right word (i.e. SCP meets the Backrooms, etc.)
  Enjoy.
  
  Out of all comments this seems the most interesting, I'll check everyone else, but I'll check each on your list first, also you understood the assignment all are in my niche thanks

  Become a detective in just hours (no degree needed)
- Lions and Legions uses TV characters from The Wire, Sopranos, and others, to make his workplace analysis. Spoiler alert in spades, but if you won't be watching those shows, it's all good.

Performance appraisals. Hate it!

Baka maging Kiko Matos-Baron Geisler lang itong dalawang bugok.

ang sakit ng ulo ko
- ulo san? hahahaha

Yung pinakaunang Puregold sa Shaw Boulevard, yun kaya yung kahilera ng Goldilocks? Madalas ako doon dati dahil malapit yung trabaho ko doon

A college in Tarlac is offering lato-lato classes. 🤣🤣🤣
- Hanep ang advanced ah
  Wonder if the International State College of the Philippines has that course

Kaya ayaw ko kumakain during work kasi tatamarin ako magwork pagkatapos kumain huhu.
Good morning! SHABU
- bat enteng? dahil ba may 'vic' sa name mo?
  
  Haha yan kasi palayaw ng tatay ko. Kinuha ko lang pangalan ng tatay ko

Naisip ko yung prof ko dati na naka-dalawang PhD na ngayon. Iba yung level of dedication at passion, gusto ko din maging ganyan 😩
Tapos heto ako, still in the process of finding the specifics of what I want to pursue lol. May ginagawa naman ako and I'm not just staying still, pero ramdam ko talaga yung journey, not the destination part. There is definitely an ongoing process here, hindi yung result na agad.
There's a lesson to learn here for me. Siguro yung pinaka significant so far is that madami akong options, I just need to keep searching.
Nakakapagod ba maghanap? It is kinda arduous, but compared to one year ago I definitely moved forward. If I was drawing a map, I now have a general idea of the terrain. I may not have the ins and outs yet but I have something.
The reason why I'm doing this slowly is because I want to be mindful of what I'm committing myself into. Pero may ipon na ako for a year of grad school (w/ savings left) kung gusto ko na talaga. The next school year kaya na yan i-trabaho.
Anyway... kailangan ko talaga galingan for scholarship reasons in the future. And gagalingan ko lang talaga kapag gusto ko talaga yung napili ko. Really tho, kung mayaman ako I wouldn't think about this so thoroughly, go na ako agad 😆 what a life
- Everyone has their own timelines. You'll get there eventually, OP. Wanting it is the first step to actually reaching it. ♥️
