Today’s Ask PHlemmy: What’s your favorite childhood memory?
my uncle didnt have a child then and treated me like his son, he would make mini parachutes with black trashbags and attached it to a small metal thing that acted as the person. Then iaangkas nya ako sa single nyang motor and go to a highpoint in our barangay and throw it then watch it deploy and fall. (sorry for littering)
thinking about it, he did a lot of similar things for me, took me fishing, made me kites, created old school fire crackers, played video games with NES.
(My father was working in manila most of the time kaya mas kasama ko uncle ko) I love my Tito!Nung nagbakasyon kami sa Baguio. Tuwing babyahe kami pa-Baguio dati lagi ko nireremind si mama na gisingin ako kapag may dadaanan kaming bamboo tree HAHAHA
Going to our aunt’s house on Christmas Day. Magbahay-bahay para mamasko. Tapos on our way home, idadaan kami ng tatay ko sa Coke plant sa Otis, sa Manila Bay, or sa Fiesta Carnival.
Manood ng Maynila sa GMA tuwing Sabado, alas diyes ng umaga. Love those Dutch angle shots and bizarre commercials ads exclusive for that show. Bizarre siguro kasi di ko nakita o narinig dito sa probinsiya ang mga ina-advert nila, like Tropical Hut o shipping companies, at Grade 1 ako na-discover ko tong show. lol
My first birthday.
I have no memories of it that I recall, but I do have pictures. Everyone was happy, problems were much simpler back then. It is what these photos trigger in me that make it a favorite childhood memory, though there are much more memories.
Not that I long for those days again, rather I look at them with appreciation and cherish those memories in pictures, even if my one y.o. self could not retain those moments in my memory at the time.
I used to (ignorantly) find taking pictures pointless. Looking back, I’m glad I had pictures of important moments like these. Not the SOCMED kind, but the truly special moments, the snapshots of our lives.

every time nag aaway parents namin, narelocate kami ng room ni mudraks to sleep… di ko maintindihan pero parang masaya ako na andun kami sa separate room natutulog…
Excited ako everytime mag-ggrocery kasi pwede ako maghagis lang ng kung anu ano sa shopping cart without worrying about paying for it. Ang kids-centric pa naman ng packaging ng mga snacks back then.
Watching cable TV. We got cable TV back in 1995 and my favorite channel was CNN International. Naalala ko dati ang schedule niyan is different from CNN US unlike today and I watched their World News as well as World Report which they show news reports contributed from TV stations around the world.
In addition to CNNI, naabutan ko pa ang Star Plus (later Star World and Fox Life, now defunct), HBO, Cartoon Network, Sky 1 (later Pinoy Blockbuster Channel and now Cinema One), SNN (now ANC), I Channel (later Lifestyle Network and now Metro Channel), Aquarium Channel, Vid-Ok (now Myx), and the now defunct Philippine Medical Television channel (PMTV). Naalala ko rin ang mga foreign channels like RTM TV1 (Malaysia), BBTV7 (Thailand), RCTI (Indonesia), BBC World (UK), Arirang (South Korea), Worldnet (now VOA TV), NHK BS1, CFI (France), at DW (Germany). I also watched the UHF stations such as SBN 21, RJTV 29, Citynet 27, and CTV 31 via cable.
My favorite cable channel of all time was i Channel on SkyCable. Puros cartoons sa umaga with some cooking shows (Frugal Gourmet) sprinkled in between, then sa gabi mga American sitcoms and dramas. Pag Friday night naman mga violent anime (8 Man After) and adult-themed programs (Dream On), which I shouldn’t be watching. lol.
RIP Sinead O’Connor
Nothing compares 2 u and fight the real enemy!
No one updates her Wikipedia page since early morning. She’s way ahead of her time.
Bruh… someone’s trying to access my paypal account. You’re just wasting your time, mah dude. Walang laman na yon lol.
Anyway, rainy morning, people.
Even if walang laman, they may steal other information from you. May as well be careful.
I changed my password naman after I found out about it. Removed my connected bank accounts din, just to be sure since I haven’t used it in a while.
If OP has an active payment method they could also use that.
Add 2fa na lang din para safe ahahaha. And don’t reuse passwords
Personal take on GOMO’s UNLI DATA:
- Is it enough for everyday use? More than enough (comms, emails, web surfing)
- Is it really slow? Depends on the location, as always. GOMO can maximize 5Mbps (625KB/s) efficiently.
- Is it good for gaming? I don’t do online gaming on my phone, so I cannot tell (sorry).
- Is it enough for nitpliks-ing? Oo naman. Naka-auto setting lang ako sa app, at wala akong na-encounter na buffering pagktapos mag-stream ng Lawrence of Arabia (3hrs), Wild Things (1h48m), at Do Revenge (1h58).
- Okay ba sa spotepai? Yes. Kaka-download ko lang ng personal playlist ko na may 237 na naka-High Quality. Natapos lang ito sa loob ng 15mins.
- Sulit ba ₱20 kada araw? Walang ganitong mobile data offer sa iba.
- Okay ba si GOMO? Depende sa lokasyon. Kung feasible ang Globe sa inyo, feasible din si GOMO.
I use Gomo as backup for WFH. Sometimes, na-experience ko na na-di-disconnect ang mga interactions ko since mahina ang signal ng Gomo sa area namin.
GOMO uses their own APN (gomo.ph), not the Globe one. Maybe yan din ang rason na nadidisconnect (I stand corrected on this one) , but for me, wala akong nararanasang buffer when streaming (because some bits of it are already downloaded). Yeah, sometimes mag didisconnect siya, especially mag bo-browse ako sa Lemmy at YouTube.
As long as I can send and receive messages and calls on Viber and emails, I’m fine. 5Mbps is enough for me.
Dati kapag sinabi think of your happy place hirap ako mag-isip. As an afterthought isipin ko na lang kumakain ako ng pagkain and ok na yun. Medyo pilit, but it works.
Now, it’s more specific and sure na lol. Sa dagat. It’s really nice, feeling ko nahanap ko na yung hinahanap ko ganun. Parang nabawasan / nawala talaga yung mga doubts at insecurities ko level. It’s peaceful and my mind is clear.
I guess I’m just really amazed. May ganito pala.

Yalda Hakim joins Sky News for new international news show
Lilipat na sa Sky News si Yalda Hakim ng BBC. Looks like apektado siya sa mga changes ng BBC News Channel after nag-merge ang domestic BBC News at BBC World News channels.
Hanep ni PaoLUL tinuloy nga yung NPC stream niya
I just thought of Oppenheimer porn parody title:
Openhymen
sorrysorrysorry!
Parang nakita ko na yan sa r/ph ah
Edit:
Thought reddit killed i.reddit/compact mode already.
You can still access it on
reddit.com/.iBut if you want to navigate through it will redirect back into regular Reddit, so I use Redirector, a Google Chrome extension.
honest to goodness havent seen that, deleted my account when the thing started. But even I wouldnt believe me If I see this thread lol. It was so random how I got the idea, and was laughing at myself earlier
Lol just realized I posted this from my alternate account lol
wait how does that work? ano pinagkaiba nung may @lemm.ee sa dulo? different account talaga totally?
Yup, separate account you could use to browse and post at lemmy.world when it has one of its many downtimes.
Was watching economic news lately, and NEDA had said that we are on track to becoming an upper middle income country. I could not believe it then I realize that our Gini coefficient’s to blame HAHAH too much income inequality.
Hope our economic planners could do something about our country’s wealth gap, though I think that if there’s something they could have done, they would have done it ages ago.
inb4 DOLE conducts TAV for microbusinesses. These businesses are already thriving to break-even, tapos mag-iimplement pa sila ng OSH at benefits na sobrang mahal. Okay lang sana na may option ang employer at employees to select anong agency na icocontribute, pero putangina, tatlo (SSS, PhilHealth, PAGIBIG)
Bakit may mga spam messages pa rin?
Di naman talaga mawawala itong mga spam text, kahit may SIM registration (lol). Spammers can still find a way.
and di pa rin sila nagdedeactivate ng mga sim, since nag-extend ng registration iirc.
Di na ako updated diyan, haha. Pagkakaalam ko nung July 25 ang “final deadline.”
Buhay na naman si Eugenics boy showing his
Pinoyeugenics pride outside the PH subreddits.PS: Maling RD ang na-ipost ko kanina hahaha. Dapat July 27, pero July 26 ang napindot ko 😂.
Daming buyers remorse sa Starlink ngayon may bagyo, haha. Yan kasi, Elon pa more!
Edit: I wonder if cloudy skies is going to be a problem for satellite cell signals like ASTS too. Okay sama sila on hard to reach rescue areas.
Starlink is intended for rural areas naman talaga without fiber optic or any sort of physical connections. Marami lang talaga nakiuso at hindi nag-research mas lalo na sa urban areas HAHAHA
Bibili ng StarLink tapos sa kalagitnaan ng mga malakihang establishment nakatira.
nagpabili ako ng burger patty, binili ni mama panay meatfree at plantbased burgers lol
Can’t believe I found this guy (Justice Der) just in time for the chill, downtempo kind of rainy day.
Better yet, dude has a 3 hour compilation of tastefully chill guitar goodness.
Perfect for setting da mood,
foreplay before rough playstudying, reading a book, or drinking some whiskey, not going to work and calling it a chill day.Be safe and dry mga Phlemmings.
