Before OTP scams and phishing, there was Aowa. Sa sobrang dami ng nabibiktima nung early to mid-00s, Ben Tulfo couldn't resist at being snarky to a victim asking for help.😂

I think their reign finally ended in 2009.

since magkakaroon ng I-phone na USB-C macoconvince ba kayong subukan ang I-phone?

[-] Companion1666@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

PHP57,000 is just too much for me for just a smartphone barely used its marketed hardware and software components like cameras and that Dynamic Island whatever. iPhone SE with USB-C, when?!

Nagkaroon lang ako ng smartphone because of banking/ewallet, instant messaging, at 2FA tokens, and my Redmi Note 11 is more than enough to perform them.

fair point pero if it was second hand? And also had a replaceable battery?

[-] Companion1666@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

You forgot...

No iCloud/Apple ID linked

Anyways, iPhones' legitimate replacement parts are too expensive for casual iPhone users/sellers. I doubt that "replacement battery" is also from authorized service center. I can't risk it. If only Apple sells their refurbished iPhones here in PH, mas maganda.

Kung pasok sa budget ko, second-hand or possibly "third-hand" iPhones are viable.

Pero di talaga, eh. Ang cheap talaga ng Android phone, kayang kaya iperform ang mga ginagawa ko.

Still no. The phone itself is way too expensive for me to afford, and if that's not enough, the apps are expensive as well. And the only source for apps is the Apple store.

That means I would have bought a phone with its apps at great expense, but I've got no freedom to do what I want with it. Pass.

Of course not, lightning cables aren't the reason I don't like iPhones

[-] Companion1666@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Lightning ports are more rigid than USB-C ports, in my opinion. Even USBs are implemented universally, I can still vouch Apple for making their proprietary port lasted a decade. It's a testament of time. I've never heard, read, or experience damaged Lightning Port since its inception.

USB-C port ng laptop at Redmi Note 11 ko, naglo-loss na. Itong third-hand iPad 6 ko, parang brand new pa ang port, ang sarap saksakan. lol

Opo, ma. Hindi na po ako maniniwala sa existence ng Quirino province.

[-] monknonoke@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Gusto ko makikain sa pagkain nung coworkers ko kaso nung nakita ko yung sangkap nila I felt myself backing out. Sweet spaghetti na may sweet sauce na nga, evaporada milk tapos extra asukal pa. Idk dessert na ata yan gurl

Ngayon ko lang nalaman yung iba pala naglalagay pati condensed milk sa spag nila. Basta I felt horrified at the amount of sugar. Kung pipili ako ng source of sugar, I choose my favourite cookies. Ayun na. I don't need extra sugar from my usual food.

Masaya na ako sa tofu vegetable combo ko. Bumili ako ng 2 blocks of tofu and it was bigger than expected 🤤

I need more protein.

Nasa news na naman ulit sina Neri and their out of touch financial advise. Sarap batukan ng PnE albums ang dalawang bugok na to.

Tonight's Ask PHLemmy: How is the average American coping right now when 61% of us are living paycheck to paycheck?

[-] willnever_fadeaway@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Not American but living paycheck to paycheck is not what I dreamed of. And I earn higher than minimum wage (where I'm at, at least). Can't imagine how people make do with less, and how this is just a fact to be accepted, and not something to fight against. We're letting ourselves get exploited by these rich asshats and can't even eat 3 proper meals in a day. Fucking hell. I hate this society.
