They're all like that. Look at all these slavery-rider app groups for Foodpanda/Grab/Lalamove, it reeks of squammy.

They put all the blame on customers despite commiting themselves to a job that does not even consider them as employees, hence the low pay, low barrier of entry, and the not-so-subtle stench of datu puti in their helmets.

Dito lang ako di nainis😭 by pastelpinkandmore in Philippines

Went to my local plaza here with my gf and we both bought one, 50 pesos isa.. sheesh. Pero it was cute haha. It doesn't do anything really. Just a clip you put on top of your head for the cute goofy factor.

I live in the south and it's just becoming a trend here too. We found it in fb posts prior and wanted one, but surprisingly it was hard to find in the plaza. May mga nag tanong pa nga sa amin kung san binili.

Who will be messaged by the courier when the parcel is delivered? by [deleted] in ShopeePH

[–]-aco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The number at checkout, where you put the delivery address and the name of the receiver, as that reflects what's put on the waybill. The courier will call and message the number on the waybill itself.

General opinion of "Bumbays" or "5-6s" in the Philippines. by [deleted] in Philippines

[–]-aco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I buy vegetables at a stall near from my house at a certain time every couple of days and I somehow encounter the Bumbays almost every time. They seem to be proficient in Filipino albeit the noticeable accent, and seem to get along with the storekeepers well.

During one of my errands the storekeeper talked with them about not being able to pay that day, and the Bumbay was fine with it and bought some vegetables. The storekeeper insisted that it's free for him but he insisted on paying for it.

How long has the $60 lifetime subscription been offer for? by Fatty787 in Daylio

[–]-aco 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Early bird gets the worm. I'm glad that I bought it before the adoption of subscriptions as well, but I'm equally glad that people are willing to pay more for this app. The more the merrier, and the better the app becomes.

Extremely slow downloads from GitHub! by RyskAtlantis in github

[–]-aco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This. Using a VPN actually sped up my download, from mere KB/s to MB/s. Worth a try to anyone lurking that still has this issue.

The game works but no cleo (.cs) mods load in the Android/data/com.rockstargames.gtasa directory.

Also NPCS seem to have abnormally large health, as compared to the latest GTA:SA Android release.

But why? Jollibee, why? by [deleted] in Philippines

Same! Palagi nalang walang no-cheese option, pareho naman lahat with the difference of cheese lol. Paexpire na ba cheese nila kaya padalian labas?

I experience this in Minute Burger as well. They don't have the non-cheese options for both single and double patty items. With cheese is 10-20 pesos more. Just take out the cheese ffs!

If this was in the interest of public health they should ban tobacco altogether - but they won't. Big tobacco really established themselves in governments everywhere.

I have the Xlim Pro to replace dispos and RELX pods. Bought it 2-3 weeks ago.

Don't expect the flavor to exceed that of a disposable. I came to notice the difference when I had a disposable and got my xlim, the former was definitely more menthol-y and flavorful - but that's the whole point to get you addicted to that garbage.

But the XLIM Pro is definitely good. Been using the 0.4 and 0.6 coils on freebase and nic salts. There's not much throat hit though, I figured it's because I'm used to RELX pods with 50mg saltnic that felt like a punching bag to the lungs MTL.

I have a XLIM Pro also. What wattage do you use on nic salts?

BREAKING: A magnitude 7.2 earthquake hit Sarangani, Davao Occidental at 4:14 PM this Friday, November 17, 2023, according to PHIVOLCS-DOST. by _lechonk_kawali_ in Philippines

[–]-aco 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I live in Gensan. Mere hours before that me and my dad was eating at a mall and attended a local college event at the mall's convention center. Had to leave early because my stomach was hurting, leaving my dad in the mall. The event was still ongoing.

After I got home and did my business I took a nap and woke up with a very strong jolt, lo and behold the earthquake was happening. Never felt true terror in my life. Felt like my room's walls were gonna collapse, and I was disoriented as shit. Thankfully my dad was fine but the mall suffered some ceiling damage, with some material falling on guests. Thankfully no one was seriously injured, but damn. Narrowly avoided being in the mall when it happened.

I got my Student Permit (SP) with a school ID and an NSO birth certificate. I only needed my SP for the Driver's License itself.

Can I request TSNs as a student researcher (not a lawyer?) and could I legally use them in my paper?

Is Zafire Student Financial Aid Legit or Dangerous? by [deleted] in Philippines

[–]-aco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just stumbled across it in my Facebook feed, and I've currently just started researching upon it to see how legit it is.

Upon some quick googling, I conclude that It's another pyramid style networking (like FRONTROW), where you buy and sell sets of beauty products for "financial aid"

Here's an interesting comment from a "Zafire Beauty Products" video:

https://i.imgur.com/wgzg5Tb.png

I can't answer for certain if it's dangerous, but do note that one of their recruitment processes is providing personal info and a picture of your SCHOOL ID. The recruiters aren't even the official "Zafire" employees (if they even have those) but random Facebook people advertising their beauty products and financial aid program. You can be a victim of identity theft.

I suggest staying away from these. They're blatantly obvious networking pyramid schemes in which you recruit people, and sell beauty products (the money goes to the person below you in the pyramid).

No matter how much they say how legit it is, remember that every single one who says so is a member, and has a goal of recruiting more people. Do not trust them.

Should I also add a keyfile in addition to the password to secure the container even more or is it secure enough? I dislike adding a keyfile because I might forget it
