Mabuhay at maligayang pag-alis sa Lemmy! ✈️

An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! πŸ‡΅πŸ‡­

Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

I know Mobile Legends is for kids or at least those who behave like children with insults like "mama mo" or "throw ko na to", but the new menu music just hammers that point home.

Yung mga companies promote competition within their ranks pero ayaw nila ng competition kapag di sila makikinabang, kaya may mga non-compete cause sa mga contracts. Bakit? Kung kaya namin makipagcompete, dapat kayo din.

May super typhoon na naman daw and could make landfall by Friday.

What an unusual forecast track, and it looks like it will be affecting here. Hope it's not as bad as the last one.

Tonight's Ask PHLemmy: What was a fact taught to you in school that ended up being disproven during your lifetime?

Parang si Armando Malite, inventor of the armalite. ROTFLMAO!

But the pinoy inventor of WiFi (Wilhemyo Filisterio) unearthed a better easter egg: a Hollywood actress was the person behind WiFi, bluetooth, and GPS.

The Tasaday was still being taught to us in grade school despite being exposed as a hoax several years before.

Also, I was going through my old test papers and some of my answers in GRMC were marked wrong even if it's correct.

Tried commuting via MRT after 3 years of avoiding public transport and it's surprisingly just about the same experience I had on good days before the pandemic. On a related note, one of the stems on my foldable umbrella finally broke after a decade of use, so now I've a reason to buy a new one.

Either a classic Putin move or he just faked his death.

I can't help thinking myself comparing this to the opening sequence of The Dark Knight Rises, where Bane hired someone to be a Dr. Pavel's blood bag and sacrifice.
