Today’s Ask PHlemmy: What inspired your username?
Saw this book on some table, wanted an account. Put 2 and 2 together and poof
coco crunchmy username.You know…
Don’t tell me it’s kaka midnight snack ng Pancit Canton?
Yes, but not the pre-packaged bullshit I advertised here on Lemmy. I literally made a pancit canton from scratch, and ofc I bought fresh pancit at mini-palengke nearby. lol
Oh wait, my username is not PancitCanton.
I literally made a pancit canton from scratch
I presume that’s from flour, water and other stuff? Damn, that’s hardcore! Also, probably really delicious since it’s freshly made (to cook).
I opened my fridge, at may natitira pa akong produces sa loob. Kaya napabili ako ng pancit kahapon.
Hahahaha! Nice! I think that’s the strength of pancit (canton, bihon, miki, sotanghon, all of them!) It’s very easy to just take whatever’s in your fridge and freestyle it.
miki
👀
I was just throwing up names around. Dir En Grey had a song called “Decadence” and they were kind of “rebels” in that they weren’t your usual visual kei band.
This is an old username, I believe it’s from a lyric from a song I liked to listen to a long time ago.
What is the meaning of “Alog” na pananalita
lol gumamit lang ako ng username generator.
A color and a birthstone.
Superproxy2k6 (one of my favorite songs) + 2019 (when I created my account in RD) = superproxy2k19.
(Napadaan lang ulit tonight hehe. 💝)
When I was making my Lemmy username, I was reminded of Oshi No Ko and KonoSuba so I went with the name “Aqua”. As for the “synonym” part, I saw a Red Skull meme saying that the word “synonym” has no synonym - now I know there is actually a synonym for “synonym” (that’s poecilonym)
not 100% synonym
almost a synonym

But the thread is about people wanting to get an abortion if they knew the child would have a deformity, not if the child was an accident. Contraceptives are irrelevant in that discussion.
Couldn’t agree more, we had a same discussion in 12th grade not directly a deformity but indirectly relates to that too, we talk about gene modification in our biology class all agreed to do so if it will make the lives of offspring easier by decreasing the chances of major deadly diseases, abortion is another matter though but If I’m questioned I’ll abort the baby right away and also if I discover that I’ve gene problem that increases risky diseases that is not curable I’ll decide to not have a baby in my entire lifetime, if you remove ethics and moral dilemmas regarding abortion it’s not that bad actually.
Serious decisions such as those have to be thought out very hard first. I’m for the idea that abortion cannot be used for anything callous or casual, as some freedoms also demand responsibility – I prefer that its utility limited to either a medical emergency, or rape cases.
Maraming salamat, @decadentrebel@lemmy.world, sa pag-tanggal ng Colombia flag sa mukha ni daga. lol
Naalala ko tuloy yung Hello Colombia na paputok 🤣🤣🤣
“ni daga”
HAAHAHAH ^sobrang cute ng icon pero what if it ended up na daga pangalan nya no ahdfasdf^
Ewan ko nga kung iho-honor ko yung poll. Iba sa votes mga non-PH naman, including the leader right now (pilemon). Although I guess it can be modified to filemon = fil + lemon.
'Yung “Pilemon” ay galing sa Cebuano folk song titled “Si Pilemon”.
Kung imo-modify ito sa “Filemon”, sa kanta naman 'yan ni Yoyoy Villame na “Si Filemon”.Correction: Yoyoy’s song is “Si Felimon” not “Si Filemon”.
May backstory naman pala yung Pilemon/Filemon/Philemon. Nice!
Hahaha! Ngayon ko lang na-realize na pwedeng Digimon din iyang Pilemon 😆
meron rin cebuano band na called missing filemon! chika ko lang cause they’re gud!
Listening to them right now. Magaling nga sila! Maraming salamat!
lmao
Does the Data Privacy Act of 2012 have the same powers as the GDPR or CCPA in that it will compel companies and corporations to delete data from users in Philippine territory?
EDIT: We have the rights to, as per prescribed in the IRR of the Data Privacy Act:
e. Right to Erasure or Blocking. The data subject shall have the right to suspend, withdraw or order the blocking, removal or destruction of his or her personal data from the personal information controller’s filing system.
- This right may be exercised upon discovery and substantial proof of any of the following:
(a) The personal data is incomplete, outdated, false, or unlawfully obtained;
(b) The personal data is being used for purpose not authorized by the data subject;
© The personal data is no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected;
(d) The data subject withdraws consent or objects to the processing, and there is no other legal ground or overriding legitimate interest for the processing;
(e) The personal data concerns private information that is prejudicial to data subject, unless justified by freedom of speech, of expression, or of the press or otherwise authorized;
(f) The processing is unlawful;
(g) The personal information controller or personal information processor violated the rights of the data subject.
PH companies can delete data from their database. The irony here is that you need to submit rigorous documents to them, and it will take them 30 days tops to delete your data.
I requested GCash to delete my former account linked to my old, forgotten mobile number last year, and yes they deleted “some of it”. I say some of it, kasi under sila sa AMLC na dapat may data retention ang mga deleted account minimum of five years, ten is max. ePhilID (or any valid ID) former mobile number, at letter need nila. I dunno kung ganito pa rin ngayon.
Tried requesting data deletion sa Shopee, but they need interview or video chat. Wtf? This was a year ago.
Hmmmmm…
Ang dami kong gustong gawin pero walang ganang kumilos… Puro tulog.
What if tanggalin na daw yung night shift dito sa work… actually pabor ang mga tao dito. I guess nobody really wants to do night shift. Heck, I don’t like it either. We just make it bearable.
Ang weird pala kapag nagpa check up ka sa workplace mo tapos kilala mo lang yung mga people. What if I was diagnosed with a disease tapos may stigma? What if I just want to keep it private? So weird.
It is tempting to do day shift. But as a nighter, malapit lang kasi work, so night = less traffic at least most of the time. I’m all for 6 am to 3 pm but the lines man, just parang nakakahinayang lang na nagising ka ng maaga para wala kang kasama, which is exactly what a few thousand people also thought at that moment lol.
Alas, but it is what it is. Do what is best for you, as talagang ymmv whether you want to be a day or night shifter.
Very tempting din kasi ang shift pay. But do check if your finance can take the hit kapag nawala sya, especially kung sakop mo ng buo yung 10pm-6am.
I just went on a mini killing spree of cockroaches. Ugh, it was disgusting, but it would’ve been more disgusting if I just let them go. And then I had to clean everything kasi may amoy sila that’s even more annoying i don’t even want to talk about it 😤
May nag-attempt pa lumipad. You’re not getting away. It was like playing whack-a-mole with my shoe. Feeling ko medyo lumabas yung pent up rage ko in the process. It was still disgusting, plz
I miss my room, I miss my bed, gusto ko na umuwi. Na-trigger ata yung allergies ko dito.
henlo
Good morning! 🌤️
Been trying the Lemmy apps that have come out and I like the look and feel of thunder best, at the moment I think I’ll be using this 3rd party app
It’s also crossplatform so that’s a W for iOS users who technically have just 1-2 options right now since closed yung Mlem.
1 year ago, I received my snack box from Reddit. May mga Starbucks frappe bottles pa sa ilalim niyan. That’s about it from them. Fuck Spez pa rin!
Honestly a bit surprising how much of that stuff we can get here nowadays.
That’s actually local, a service called SnackMagic.
Reddit gave us an option to choose two out of many freebies which also includes 6-months Skillshare, 1-year Duolingo, DeleteMe, and Shine. Failed to read na for US lang DeleteMe so hindi ko nagamit. Should have gotten two snackboxes instead, lol.
Ah ok. Akala ko galing sa ibang redditor. Pero nice, never knew about this service before.
If I had another chance, I tried to tell you that the things we had were right.
This will always my favorite music video and one of my favorite house music in my lifetime. The 2000s zeitgeist is too strong on this one, even though I was too young to remember the era. The pandemic blew this M/V views from 2m to 17m.
They “remastered” the M/V last year, and it has different vibe compare to moody, original version that really looked so cinematic. By the way, this was shot on 16mm.
Speaking of snack boxes below, subscription model boxes, has anyone tried them? Like ung mga clothing subscription (set of clothes and iirc shoes sent to you monthly for a monthly subscription. Naturally they’ll ask for your measurements, shoe sizes, etc.) or same idea but for food. How was it?
Nakatipid ba kayo or not?
More convenient or not?
Genuinely curious.
parang mga lootbox? for clothes? vv interesting and feels like a huge luxury (monthly supply of new clothes). not hating on people who go for it but yeah interesting how that works
Yep. Sort of a luxury here I guess, but it’s a bit of a thing sa US. I was just wondering how people here would justify either paying or not paying for this kind of service.
Nakaka disappoint sa comsec ng r/piracy
Sleepless man runs amok, gets killed after trying to stab cop
That headline, lol.
Sleepless.
I’m guessing either something that stopped him from going to sleep has to do. Or meth.
The suspect’s wife said he hadn’t slept in three days. So we presumed his mental health was affected.
I’ve experienced bouts of being awake for more than 36 hours (I think there’s even a time I’ve been awake for 72 hours–my memory of that time is really fuzzy), and I can attest that at such times I’m irritable and yet slow to react at the same time. It’s a really strange state of mind to be in.
I am guessing, just out of my ass, that some kind of mania (a manic episode) is involved.
Regardless, I hope this incident leads to the man getting the help he needs.
EDIT:
Shit, kulang pa ako sa gising. Damn. I’m sorry. Pagkakaintindi ko kanina, nabaril lang.
24 ang nagawa ko, and I have to say I don’t want to to it again. I’ve become more assertive when it comes to sleep time now. Di ko mapakawalan ang 8 hours sleep time, 1 to 4 hours if shit really needs to be done, but I still have to sleep somehow.
On recharge time, I only remember once na natulog ako ng 6 am and woke up around 9 or 10 pm (?) that evening. Luckily I didn’t feel dizzy or anything, but quite well rested. Hungry AF tho.
On a sort of relevant note, this was around the time I stumbled upon the sickness Fatal Familial Insomnia (FFI), which is basically a disorder that can be passed down wherein the affected person dies slowly because they can’t sleep.
Experts estimate that only 100 people in 30 families across Europe, China, Japan, Australia, and the U.S. are carriers of the gene that causes this disease.
Source is WebMD. That’s like a terrible death sentence for a family.
Scary shit.
I’ve become more assertive when it comes to sleep time now.
Teach me your ways, master! lol!
Sarili ko pinaka-kalaban ko dito eh. Lalo na yung feeling mo you’re coming near a breakthrough and ayaw mong mawala sa groove since it’s very hard to get the mental train get going after a prolonged break (like sleep).
Eto ata yung side-effect ng na-train sa cramming, lol! Yung lahat na lang halos dinadaan sa overnight at pag-pigil ng tulog: notebooks (na sinusubmit sa teacher), projects, thesis.
But yeah, I know one has to be assertive and disciplined when it comes to sleep (part of a healthy sleep hygiene). Kaso mas di hamak siyang madaling sabihin kaysa gawin.
That’s like a terrible death sentence for a family.
That’s really terrible indeed. I’d probably just off myself if I find myself to be in such a situation.
My personal record is 30hrs straight. Mabuti nakauwi na ko bago magshut down yung katawan ko. Tapos tulog 14hrs straight.
Buti na lang! I can’t imagine doing anything remotely productive at such situations too.
And that 14h recharge, lol! At my worst, I’ve had days where I’d sleep for around 18 hours (after being awake for ~30 hours), even got to a 24h+ sleeping spree, but the feeling after such a long sleep, not that great either. Parang nakukulangan pa ako sa tulog.
It’s just unhealthy: too much wakefulness and too much sleep.
