SMNI News’ YouTube channel got terminated. The red-tagging channel “Laban Kasama Ang Bayan” (named after the SMNI show with Lorraine Badoy) also got terminated on YT as well.
YT dimonio, mga NPA, salute sa buyan!
I was bored/procrastinating on some work.
It’s not really an in-depth thing, I just used Lemmy’s search capability and took note of the number of responses and the number of deleted responses. I added the number of responses with the number of deleted responses (a negative number for new responses, a positive number for new responses is ignored). I did it for both Lemmy.world and Lemm.ee and took the average. For the smoothed out version, I just took the exponential moving average with the following factors:
- sampling frequency =
1 day - average age (ϰ)=
7 days - EMA factor (α) =
1/(ϰ+1)=0.125
That is, I am trying to smooth the values accounting for weekly variability in activity.
I guess I could have ignored the spike in activity during the Reddit blackout, but it seems that the smoothing took care of that quite well.
EDIT: Replaced chart image with a one that has a black background for legibility for people using light mode.
Here’s a link to a google sheets copy of the file I used.

Someone made a thread the other day suggesting that r/PH switch to NSFW. This article explains what we already know and why it’s a bad idea:
Reddit demands moderators remove NSFW labels, or else…
Contrary to popular belief, we’re not scared of being stripped our moderator duties… BUT it is a bad thing for the sub if they appoint AI mods or just any applicant that may or may not be from a troll farm.
Edit - Apologies for bringing r/PH drama again 🤪
if they appoint AI mods or just any applicant that may or may not be from a troll farm.
Nakakatakot if the Reddit admin appoint these kinds of people as mods such as:
- the notorious anti-vaxxer mod sa phclassifieds
- Sakundes
- DDS/Marcos apologist a la Truther
- Redditor who has a eugenics fetish
- MRA/MGTOW na nagkakalat sa isang satirical sub (na obviously not satirical ang mga posts niya)
I was kind of curious and looked up some of them. Guess what? The MRA filed a request to be the top mod of r/ph.
How about pobautista?
You mean that tryhard wannabe mod? Forget that clown
Parang awa mo na, wag ka mag-report dito! Wala kaming “ignore reports” at “snooze”! ✌️😂
Reported this comment for using emojis -_-
What they appear to be doing is asking for volunteers. Check the mod code of conduct account’s posting history. That would be a disaster for r/ph. Imagine if certain people there became mods.

It’s OK.
So, uh yesterday was reported by Yahoo! Australia to be the world’s hottest day of all time.
Friederike Otto, a German climate scientist based in Britain, was quoted (in the above news article) to say that this is a “death sentence for people and ecosystems”, and that we should expect more records to be broken in the coming months/years, in a negative way.
Well, shit. Better save up for the a/c and fans people. Hotter days lie ahead.
Edit: Clarity. Edit 2: Yestereday to yesterday.
kuwawa talaga ang mga mahihirap sa climate change, mas lalong maghihirap
Wala man lang safety net of some sort. Fucked either way.
I fear that we may have yet to see the worst in people if things further go south, though I hope it reveals more of the best of the human race.
I think it’s the perfect time to eat the rich.

A not so fun fact: cities may experience the Urban Heat Island effect and one of the factors is the reliance on air conditioners.
Even Baguio is starting to feel like a hellhole, and people say it’s supposed to be cool here.
Akala ko pa naman makakatipid na sa kuryente once April-May passes, but looks like the high electric bill woes will continue.
Twitter threatens to sue Meta after rival app Threads gains traction
Twitter is threatening Meta with a lawsuit after the blockbuster launch of Meta’s new Twitter rival, Threads — in perhaps the clearest sign yet that Twitter views the app as a competitive threat.
On Wednesday, an attorney representing Twitter sent Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg a letter that accused the company of trade secret theft through the hiring of former Twitter employees.

Flying ipis. 😞 We can keep the non-flying ones around.
Buti pa yung mga higanteng gagamba kahit nakakagulat may silbi e. Kahit mga daga nagagamit sa lab research. Ito talagang mga ipis, wala. They should be wiped off the face of the planet post haste.
Yup! Yung usefulness nila, kaya namang iassume ng other species pag nawala sila. Hehe. Pero basta ibang usapan talaga yung lumilipad. Hahahahaha.
Fuck that, get rid of all of them nalang.
Pwede din haha. Ok naman din kahit may matira pero ibang usapan talaga yung lumilipad. 😂

I keep thinking about it, my best guess is I got stung by a jellyfish kaso di ko kasi nakita and not knowing is even more annoying 😒 basta walang kakamot is the rule lol
I can really only deduce based on what I got. Either way, I still like jellyfishes. Next time mag full suit na lang ako.
Madami akong natututunan for my beach trip. One could call it a vacation, but I thought it was pretty productive too.
Next time baka try ko matulog sa hammock just so I can save on accomodation💲jk. I think I’ll seriously try it pero solo trip hahaha. Tapos kapag di ko kinaya pasok na lang ako and try to upgrade to an actual bed.
I wanna try things.

Oks lang, chief!

Nearly a month ago I requested for my reddit data and I just got the file today. A few notes:
- It has all my comments since 2011. But a large part of it is unavailable on the actual site if I take a look at my profile.
- Most of the data is comprised of my comments (around 15000+), posts (almost 200), upvoted/downvoted comments, upvoted/downvoted posts, etc.
- IPs used to access the site are logged for about the last 3 months or so.
Yesterday felt like it was summer season again. El Niño effect scares me. Well La Niña was also scary but El Niño is more prone to heat stroke. Let’s keep ourselves hydrated people!
It was horrible. 45 degrees daw yung heat index dito sa amin.

Slightly mahal ng konti than your budget at 1.4k (with 200 off voucher code applied) but I use this one. 7 years na sa akin and still going. Madaming attachments, easy to clean, and lasts several months on a single charge.
