Happy weekend!
Today’s Ask PHlemmy: If ₱ wasn’t an issue what hobby would you get into?
Traveling, just chilling out doing a whole lot of nothing, and philanthropy.
I’d probably go back to 10m Air Rifle or Archery.
been in land for like 99% of my life…
so either skydiving or water stuffs like yachting… pass muna sa submersibles…
Was supposed to make a submarine joke but my feelings sank as I was about to post it.
Solo camping! I was always fascinated by survivalist lifestyles and with my recent watching of Yuru Camp (btw, definitely an anime I can recommend if you like slice of life), well my interest in it was bolstered. Wala din kasing medyo magandang camping spots dito. Yung camping spots mostly are for hikers, which technically is in the same vein but I don’t like walking up gravity that much.
mala-Tom cruise. Flying an airplane or helicopter, going to dubai skyscrapper, etc.
Travel and live in comfort in different places abroad. Yung tipong just to experience the culture tapos lipat ulit.

Philanthropy
Reading siguro, yaong mayroon kang latest edition ng World Book encyclopedia, ta’s isa pang shelf na puno ng mga fave mong aklat at graphic novel.
Traveling, camping, mountaineering. I’m sure it can be done on a budget, pero parang ang haggard kasi na aakyat ka ng bundok ng overnight ng Sabado at Linggo, tapos makakauwi ka ng Linggo ng gabi, then sabak na naman sa trabaho ng Lunes. If it were up to me, either I’d quit my job entirely (to find the time to devote to that hobby), or get a different one that’s less demanding of my time even though it pays a lot less.
I also want to have time to actually enjoy what I am doing rather than just zooming from one destination to another.
may foreigner na gumawa nito… got a stable job then decided to travel the world…
if i remember correctly, dude was happy… though nung matatapos na siya, he did comment like you will come to a point na parang normal na lang lahat… ohh a mountain, ohh another mountain… like that waterfall… ohh another waterfall…
but i guess he was happy in the en… forgot his name… nasa YouTube…
he did comment like you will come to a point na parang normal na lang lahat… ohh a mountain, ohh another mountain… like that waterfall… ohh another waterfall…
That’s scary. I am guessing he’s being overstimulated near the end, that experiences that are meant to be out of the ordinary seems ordinary to him at that point.
Which is one of the reasons I want to take things a lot slower if I ever have a chance of doing so. Hindi yung mag-lalagay lang ng gamit sa hotel, tapos diretso rampa na sa bundok/beach/whatever. Perhaps take a day or two to rest, explore the area around the hotel/hostel/lodging–see what the locals are up to, then uunti-untiin yung sights, etc. IDK if the Youtuber guy you are talking about did something similar though.
i think 2 to 3 days is enough as well… if for a week, maybe youll learn more or focus on culture rather than view…
Yeah, though I guess it also depends a lot on one’s own pace. Someone really sluggish (like me) could probably take one week exploring a handful of destinations, one or two a day, interspersed with rest days.
Get fully into hydroponics/aquaponics.
Buying graphics cards just to train my own AI.
Buying back some of my old toys in sealed condition and putting up a display room.
Building a time machine, or a transportation that we can take ourselves to another universe and communicate to our past selves.
Butterfly decided to chill on my tomato plant for an hour.
Nice bokeh. What did you use to take this?
Just my phone. Was surprised it let me get up close.
Thank you to u/theyawner for a good read on the urban heat island effect. Sadly, and ironically I might add, that the more we use technology to cool us down, the more we make everyone hotter.
Sana we find a sustainable way to cool ourselves, apart from battling global warming.
Wonder how it’s like to stay in space?

Thoughts after CH.123 of the Oshi no Ko manga:
spoiler
So many people hating on the potential incest route based on the latest chapter. Why can’t you just be happy that for once a decently popular series might explore a serious incest story? It’s just fiction man and I’m tired of fictional stories ONLY using incest as some comedic trope.
Actually, knowing Aka Akasaka, he probably is just stirring the audience. But knowing the manga (which is famous for being no-holds-barred on controversial stuff), I also think he’s serious. Honestly I’m kinda puzzled.
spoiler
Nonetheless, I like the Oshi No Ko manga very much that the incest route is the least of my worries (honestly, I’m more worried because Akane, Kana, and Mem haven’t appeared in quite some time). I’m worried na nasaksak na sila ni Hikaru Kamiki
CreepyWikipedia is one of the few subreddits that took the blackout seriously and has yet to return. Hopefully they’re fine with me making a Lemmy version: [email protected]

Wow
Napakadami na pala ngayong ng pronouns.
https://www.lgbtqnation.com/2022/08/incomplete-list-gender-pronouns/
My pronouns are:
nag-deferate na si lemmy.ml kay threads - https://lemmy.ml/post/1818412
Paano na si
lemmy.worldProbably on a next update, at the very least a statement. Lots of community demand for it that I doubt the admins will just ignore.
Edit: They did say this several days ago before Threads even launched.
“Watching Like A hawk, with our fingers on the block button.” We will NOT be pre-emptively taking a “Fediblock as a Frist Strike” position.”
That’s a lot better than Mastodon.social’s admin’s stance, which is “This is a clear victory for our cause, hopefully one of many to come.”
I think, and I am really hoping that I’m wrong, that it’s not only myopic, but also would cost a lot of pain later on, when the snake that is Threads strangle Mastodon and swallow it whole.
Good thing someone shared a method of blocking domains, which can hopefully means that individually, users can block Threads if their instance owners don’t.
Diba pareho admins ng lemmy.world at ng mastodon?
Same owner ang sa Lemmy.world and Mastodon.world.
Yung owner naman ng Mastodon.social is the dev of Mastodon—and this is really concerning given his stance on the matter (the link in my previous reply) and that Mastodon instance admins signed an NDA with Meta. We can’t know for sure who sold their souls to Meta, which is probably part of Meta’s strat here–increase agitation among Mastodon users as well as sow distrust.
Am I falling for it? Likely. Am I spreading FUD here? I suppose it can be argued that way. However, I think that a good way to see where they stand is their stance about de-federating from Threads. It ain’t foolproof, since people can and will lie, but in the absence of better ways to divine their (the instance admins) intent, it’s good enough for me.

Hindi pa ina-update (wala pang bagong updates) si Lemming for Lemmy.
Last week (huling linggo). after update si Lemming.
Anong nangyari kay
janniskilian(yung dev)?Lemming is the best in terms of UI/UX out of all functional Lemmy android apps, and I still use it, but it’s still way too basic right now.
Where do you guys get your news with regards to fuel price movement for next tuesday gusto ko sana ng source na pwede i-scrape dahil tamad igoogle manually pls and thx
rape?
Scrape sorry
Looks like lemmy.world did another stealth update. It only says “BE: 0.18.1” at the bottom now, and apparently it’s mostly performance fixes. The only UI change I noticed is that the mod and OP icons are different.
It’s interesting how lemmy.world is becoming a primary source for performance monitoring and troubleshooting due to the actual high volume of traffic. And this in turn benefits all lemmy instances.
I think I’m obsessed. Or is it infatuation? Lol. If I do this long enough with dedication this might become an actual hobby. Bottomline is I can only continue this if I got ✨money✨ hahahaha.
Once again, I will rethink my decisions in life. I will do it step-by-step and through experience. I really need to develop that control so I don’t panic, and you know, die.
When I feel fear I just try to keep in mind that specific fear comes from the unknown and ignorance. So, let’s not be ignorant. Don’t be a dumbass and don’t be reckless.
Tamang hanap lang ng insurance that can cover extreme sports injury during my free time. Calculated risks tho…I will take that.
Unsolicited song reco time!
Theme: kpop tracks that don’t really sound like traditional kpop and are perfect songs to
brainwashget your non-kpop friends to appreciate the genreskl pero kung masesend ko lang 'yung songs na 'yan sa anti-kpop metalhead jazzcirclejerk self ko back in 2018, mas matagal na siguro akong kpop stan hehe.
Same. 2021 lang ako nag start makinig ng kpop tapos na-influence lang ako ng friends ko na mahilig sa BTS. Isa sa favorite songs ko by them yang panglima. Iba yung feel nya sa songs ni Suga sa Agust D solo nya.
