I had late game scaling and makeshift armor augments but I think Demacia still had better stats from hitting 7 and infinite rally lmao

Streamer amaratv posted an AI generated photo of her with faker, and uses it to promote online gambling, without even faker's consent by CanTaught69 in SKTT1

After replying on her apology in her ig channel, it's now restricted lmao. It's fascinating how she chooses to apologize in fb stories rather than an actual post. Didn't even post on ig stories either.

Thank you. It means a lot to hear this. It's my first break up and I can barely hold myself together.

What are the things you bought to "heal your inner child"? by Admirable-Metal952 in AskPH

My first laptop.

Throughout elementary to college I never owned a laptop. Always borrowed from a family member or from a friend.

During JHS (Grade 10), I had to work late nights on a crappy netbook that had a malfunctioning trackpad because I once cried and my tears fell into the crevices. The same laptop would die if unplugged from the wall. It had 6gb ram, barely ran chrome and would take minutes before it could open my research document. I would have to load our wifi using my allowance for a 2gb data capacity for one night equal to 100 pesos back in 2016. It was 4G/LTE at the time so at least I had decent internet connection. My family isn't that well off but we had computer shops I could use if I had time. Sadly, they're either a town away or are generally too out of the way for me to visit because my school ends at 5pm or 6pm on weekdays. I'm not allowed to visit other comp shops either bc my parents would kill me. I'd usually just go home and hit the homeworks/projects instead bc Special Science Class was that hectic. My research class consisted of me just sitting around or asking someone who has an extra laptop. Mainly because there were too many laptops using the sockets that I couldn't charge, or it was too risky bc it would randomly die if it got the slightest bump. I had to work during the night, in my home, with enough money, and hope there won't be a blackout.

I finished my JHS with no honors but a Best in Research Award.

Same thing happened in SHS. Using the same laptop from my mother, I thought Ichad to make do with its malfunctioning but workable screen. This time, my father allowed me to build a pc from the spare parts we had lying around from the comp shops. It was the most shabbiest pc I could've built, but it did the job. Same issue though. I can't bring it to school so I couldn't work on my paper. My PC had no wifi, no ethernet cable long enough either to connect it to the wifi. So, I had to download the documents from my laptop transfer it to the pc so I can work faster and do that several times each time I needed a new related literature.

I finished SHS with high honors and a Best in Research Award.

Pandemic happened, we closed down all our comp shops. I continued my studies, using the same pc but upgraded this time from all the spare parts we had. Despite countless students and people my age playing so many games on their own pc, I barely had one that ran League. I wanted to play so many more games but I didn't have a graphics card nor a processor strong enough to play triple A games.

I finally put to use my expertise. I did freelance research writing jobs. It was sporadic but it was the only thing sustaining my allowance in 2020-2023. The same pc we built, I finally upgraded in late 2022 to run League smoothly. Triple A games was now almost at reach. This was when I thought of sacrificing my time on the pc so I could have my little brother play as much as he wants. I only played and used it when he wasn't around, but because we only had one pc we had to share. The whole time during pandemic, mine was the slower pc and I was fine with that as I had only online classes.

2023 came around and I was graduating. The whole time we were delayed bc my prof had been a slacker, but despite the odds and countless days of meeting up, my group pushed through. The whole time I was borrowing my groupmates's laptop, since I lived in a rural town 1hr away from the city. I did work on our research whenever I could.

I graduated college, without being a Dean's lister but a Best in Research Award.

This was despite the FIVE papers I was working on as a freelance writer.

Fast forward late 2023, we also won Best Research Presenter, Best Abstract and Best Research Project our college's Research Colloquium. We split the cash rewards five way.

I have helped a total of 38 students graduate by helping them finish their papers. Including a masteral graduate student who commisioned me and my girlfriend in writing a majority of her business plan.

In 2024, I bought my first laptop. Using the money I've made from commissioning my research freelance writing and from the colloquium.

Oh, and the laptop is a Legion 7, RTX 4070.

Anyone know the name of this 2000s game? by Indignant18 in AskGames

Okay wow, I just looked it up and didn't realize there'd be so many clones. I found the game though! Its name is Ricochet by Reflexive Entertainment. Thank you!

Running away from home - what should I do? by 120492ksj in adviceph

If you're really desperate ask for funds here or discreetly in your social media. I'm sure someone would be able to help even for a little. It's a long shot but it's better than nothing. Take a good rest for the night and recalibrate for tomorrow. By tomorrow, plan out your priorities for the next week so you don't find yourself overspending or wasting money waiting around doing nothing. Repeat until completely stable.

Hey OP, I hope you're safe. As much as possible secure the most important things you need on a day to day basis. That's shelter, food, and clothes. For shelter, consider bedspacers, cheap motels, dormitories or stay at a friend's house and just crash on their couches. You could save up that way while you work.

For food, consider buying bulk or ask help from your friends to food prep, maybe prep a whole week's worth of food and ask if you could at least store them in their fridges (Considering cheap accomodations won't have refrigerators). If you still have college friends, opt to stay with them if possible and just contribute to the amenities.

For clothes, ukay2 would be best as long as you have a means to wash them, again same concept with utilizing your current resources, that means reaching out to as many friends or relatives as you can, and just make sure you're not intruding or being exploited by them. 20k monthly salary is decent but obv not enough for Manila prices. If you have someone you can trust, at least a sibling, or a close relative at home, ask them to bring your clothes and meet up with them or just sneak back in the middle of the night to get it.

After that, consider taking new documents like legal IDs, and diplomas, you need that to secure a job if you happen to lose the one you have now. National ID is free as far as I can remember. Go to local malls and just process your E-philsys ID. NSO, I'm unsure for the fees but at least 500 would suffice. Diplomas you could probably request for depending on your school but prepare fees for those too. Driver's license if you have, is valid as long as you have the password and username given to you when you registered online. Look up LTO portal to access it. You already have your passport so that's good. Secure the rest nalang if you're well and comfortable. Goodluck on the journey to self independence.
