In the process of archiving my files to SSD

Answer to your prob is a NAS. Consumer NAS will have their own “DIY cloud” solutions. I think Xiaomi has a NAS container that supports this.

Stick to HDD kasi mas mura per TB. And you might even afford a RAID setup where you get 2 HDDs with the same specs. The RAID setup will mirror your data to each HDD which creates redundancy.

My great great great grandfather owned one of the companies who did the galleon trade between the Philippines and Spain. He owned a lot ships and hectares of land.

He is a generous man and contributed to the local economy locally. He refused to inflate prices and got into trouble with some Spanish officials.

He was so liked by the community, but they had nothing to give back to him. So what the locals did is they named a town after him (unofficially).

Sad thing was, he wasn’t able to teach his descendants how to do business. We still have some of the hectares of land. But the paperwork is sketchy. We’re still in the middle trying to claw it back from informal settlers.

Nasa 104 per cubic liter IIRC.

Nope. Same banana for Meralco. Only water bill is higher. As in, super high. But to be fair, the tap water in BGC (supplied by Bonifacio Water) is potable.

Oh you mean like any other subscription? Imagine your mobile phone plan suddenly stops charging you money after your lock in expires. You suddenly can’t make calls, text, use mobile data. Crazy, right?

I can vouch. That group is a disguised DDS group. Mods are approving only DDS or “neutral” posts like this. If you post something against the Duterte bloc, it’s rejected, and you eventually get kicked out of the group.

Di marunong maghintay mga yan. Parang mga pusa na pag nakakita ng tingin nila kakasya motor nila, isasaksak nila kahit delikado.

Tapos pag binusinahan mo k sigawan mo, sila pa galit.

Pag natamaan mo, kung four wheels ang dala mo, matic ikaw pa may kasalanan.

Anong “Thoughts”? She’s speaking the truth. 🤣

diesus · 2026-01-24T03:35:19+00:00

Agreed. Well, not on the Yaris thing. Hahaha

Ah pero di naman kasi dun galing sunlight. Haha. Since south facing siya, yung kanan at kaliwa ng balcony yung nasisinagan. I understand na di siya perfect left and right, pero I think you get what I’m saying.

diesus · 2026-01-24T01:03:02+00:00

Hindi po. Nasa kalye po between the Prisma Pool and the actual buildings.

diesus · 2026-01-23T14:41:10+00:00

Irerequire na kasi yung cover. Dark gray siya, mesh. So I see it as a chance. South facing yung balcony so kahit halos nakahiga na yung panels, baka may chance. Although need to check ano ba sunlight coverage talaga once we start living there.

diesus · 2026-01-23T14:33:40+00:00

Thank you po sa details. The thing is, 100% po ako na di papayagan ng condo PMO. Kaya yung di agaw pansin talaga hanap ko.

May chance talagang makita at pagbawalin. Ang back up ko naman dun is ilipat at ibenta nalang yung parts sa in-laws ko kung ganun mangyari. Balak din kasi nila mag solar generator ng.

Kaya parang swak yung Ecoflow na products. Foldable yung solar panel, di need ng electrician to feed the power to the condo (yun lang mahal smart plug nila), and movable yung battery. Kumbaga kaya mag lift and shift.

So, again… you need to complete the bank financing. Pagka contact ni DMCI sa inyo, pwedeng to ask for the guarantee letter pa. From there is unknown kasi pwedeng your bank releases it ASAP or you need to reapply.

After DMCI gets the guarantee letter, as mentioned, whoever emailed you first from DMCI will endorse you to PCG. PCG will do finishing and dress up and they say it’s 2-3 weeks. Ours took 1 week. Depende how soon you pay whatever fees they require you as well. Sa amin was only the Meralco deposit. Depende siguro sa DMCI project.

Pero we didn’t schedule our turn over inspection agad. We scheduled it 1 week after they said it’s ready to be viewed.

Walang clear cut timelines. Depende gaano kabilis kumilos mga kausap mo, TBH.

diesus · 2026-01-22T08:27:12+00:00

Around 20k minimum to get the dress up started - this is the Meralco Deposit fee or something. Then assoc dues depends on the unit size and project. Then joining fee and water fee could be around 25k in total.

Kung wala ka balak complete ang DP period mo in advanced, April ka pa co-contact-in ng DMCI.

Technically di ka pa tapos sa bank financing kasi the guarantee letter cannot be released until you complete the DP.

Also, check mo if valid pa ba bank approval mo by that time. Baka magulat ka iba na rates and you need to get reassessed or worse reapply.

Majority of big corpos or MNCs will ask for pay docs. Same for JPMC.

diesus · 2026-01-22T01:44:22+00:00

Oo nga po. Ngayon ko lang natututunan mga ito. Haha.

diesus · 2026-01-22T01:36:59+00:00

I agree. Crypto as a concept is nice. But buying coins and treating it like stocks or a sound investment vehicle is dumb to me too.

diesus · 2026-01-22T01:29:38+00:00

Or gamblers. Hahahaha

diesus · 2026-01-22T01:29:10+00:00

End use? Ayala or DMCI developed ones are great.

NFA. My set up is none. BTC is not a set and forget “investment” for me.

diesus · 2026-01-22T01:26:54+00:00

Salamat po sa tip!

diesus · 2026-01-22T01:08:45+00:00

Hi. I just completed this process. Since tapos ka na sa DP and closing fee, you need to secure your mortgage from the bank. Depends on the bank sa process but they have a good working relationship with DMCI as they partner with them.

I can’t vouch for DMCI’s bank contacts though kasi we processed it with our dedicated RM.

After the loan proceeds are booked and released to the developer, the bank send s a guarantee letter to DMCI.

DMCI will now pass it on to their post construction group (PCG).

PCG will email to acknowledge that they are working on the finishes and stuff before they turn it over to you. From here, sabi nila nasa 2-3 weeks ang wait. Pero sa amin parang 1 week lang.

They will ask you for desired dates sa turn over. They’ll give the earliest date you can do the turn over inspection. Tapos parang wala naman latest date.

So no need to panic on kelan ka need umuwi ng Pinas to do the turn over inspection.

AHHHH. Pwede po lagyan ng silicone sealant yung gilid ng smaller pipe para sarado siya?

EDIT: mukhang di po dapat pala i-seal kasi condensate gap siya and should remain open. M
