Today’s Ask PHlemmy: What inspired your username?
lol gumamit lang ako ng username generator.
A color and a birthstone.
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
sabi sa Wiktionary
Was looking for a name for a game I used to play and checked a dictionary for inspiration. The word I checked was acacia, which led to acanthus, which led to akantha.
It’s an old one, made back in my weeb days. I was looking to register at some forum, and at the time, I was into an anime character wearing glasses.
From then on, I kept using it, partly because part of my identity has grown around that username, and has become disassociated from the anime character that inspired it.
what
Got it random halloween balloon and an anagram of my first name
i was listening to the song while making a lemmy acct, haha! also was in the middle of thinking if i should keep my reddit acct or not
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
👀
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.
Maraming salamat, @decadentrebel@lemmy.world, sa pag-tanggal ng Colombia flag sa mukha ni daga. lol
Naalala ko tuloy yung Hello Colombia na paputok 🤣🤣🤣
lmao
“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.
As someone who voted for Pilemon, I support changing it to Philemon or Filemon.
Shit, should I just make an entry for Philemon?
Edit:
Fuck it, I made the entry anyways. Bahala na.
'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!
Hmmmmm…
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!
IDK about anyone else, but the phrase “consuelo de bobo” comes to mind.
Honestly a bit surprising how much of that stuff we can get here nowadays.
That’s actually local, a service called SnackMagic. You have 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.

Good morning! 🌤️
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.
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.
Ang dami kong gustong gawin pero walang ganang kumilos… Puro tulog.
TIL that orange(fruit) word came first before it was use to describe a color,
na curious kasi ako bakit redhead tawag at hindi orangehead, so ayun napasearch aq.
Jerboa got updated. May sort by new comments na.
Lemmy.world-friendly na yung app?
I’ve updated Jerboa via F-droid just now. While there’s a warning about my instance being below the supported version, I think I can still use it just fine.
I might downgrade if I see problems breaking my experience here.

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.
deleted by creator
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.
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.
Nakaka disappoint sa comsec ng r/piracy
I am watching DanMachi today and boy am I glad it doesn’t go full Naofumi way where Hestia Familia has no friends or allies. I am just so glad there are the gods Miach and Takemikazuchi
