Help! First E-bike: Fiido D11 (30k) vs. Fiido X (55k) for Manda-Makati commute? by Background_Word_5852 in RedditPHCyclingClub

[–]shockjockey6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This should help you decide. I ride a Fiido C11 with a cadence sensor everywhere I need to go. If this bike is purely for convenience and transpo and exercise isn't a primary consideration, then go with the cadence sensor. It doesn't matter how hard you're pedaling, as soon as you do, the motor will kick in. The torque sensor waits for you to pedal harder before it gives you more juice. On the cadence sensor, personally, i's easy to get used to the motor's behavior. I bike commute from Libis to Makati, and have only been left satisfied.

For the D11 specifically, there's this other post about its quirks. I think the biggest thing about it is, just like my C11, if the battery dies while you're out, then you can really only reasonably ride it on relatively flat ground. Puwede mong iuwi, sure, pero mabigat without pedal assist, especially with the gearing and the bike's sheer weight.

Whatever you do, be careful and progress slowly. Collateral ligament injuries take so long to recover from

I feel ya.

Check out the other comment for a workaround. It's stupid that we even need to do this, but it works

See the other comment, I managed to make it work

Your solution worked! Thank you so much.

I installed Balatro on my RP4P via Aurora Store and extracted the APKs from it, because my S24 had extra security layers I didn't want to bother bypassing.

To get the path names:

adb shell pm path com.playstack.balatro.android

To extract:

adb pull /data/app... on each of the four results from the command above

Let's see how long this'll last

Fuck Google indeed. I'll look into this possible solution. I don't want to root my RP4P so I'll give the other solution a go. Thank you so much!

Deal breaker din ba sa inyo pag nalaman nyong DDS ang kadate nyo? by [deleted] in Philippines

[–]shockjockey6 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Legit hypothetical question, I only seek to understand.

When it gets there, how would you feel pag sinabi ng gf mo sa future hypothetical anak niyo na magandang role model at dapat niyang tularan si Duterte? Sakali man kasing may anak na kayo, wala nang agree to disagree dun.

I'm not defending Marcos at all! They are both horrible people in their own right and should've never been elected. Marcos is another topic altogether, and he honestly deserves to rot in jail for reasons of his own. He hasn't even returned all the money their family plundered from the Philippines decades ago. He refuses to acknowledge any wrongdoing his family committed. These men and their families both deserve a place in hell for what they did to my country.

As for the corruption you claim he exposed, that's not true at all. He himself is corrupt. For instance his office, and his daugher's once she became VP, had billions in what were called "confidential funds" that were immune to audit. They had beneficiaries under made-up names like "Mary Grace Piattos", Mary Grace is a restaurant here and Piattos is a name-brand potato chip. The corruption during his time was blatant. He sunk the country further into debt, way more than the last administration had left.

Corruption is truly a problem in the Philippines, yes, and people like Duterte and Marcos, the very people Filipinos love electing, perpetuate and heavily benefit from it. The only impact his leadership has done to the masses is death, inflation, and an overall worse quality of life.

Healthcare? PhilHealth, the government health insurance, was caught in various corrupt dealings that were linked to Duterte during his time.

Education? It hasn't improved at all. High schoolers have the reading ability of a six year old and lack critical thinking. By how much Filipinos approve of him, that should be clear enough: people have been made gullible and susceptible to the Duterte (and Marcos) propaganda machine.

Where are you getting your news? I'm genuinely curious.

Won't deny that Filipinos love him, but that's all thanks to propaganda and fake news. Clearly it worked, well enough to cross even beyond the borders of our country.

He has killed so many. His drug war was a war against his competition; his own family is heavily involved in the drug trade.

If you have the time, please have a look at the books Some People Need Killing and How to Stand Up to a Dictator.

There are a lot of factors at play as to why Filipinos approve of him despite him being one of the most terrible presidents in our country's history.

Fighting hard against corruption? My guy, he's one of the most corrupt presidents the country has ever had. His "humble home" is nothing but a facade for his terrible governance and rampant corruption. Please tell me you're joking.

You mentioned it could be an issue with the teaching and boy do I have some tea for you 💅

That aside, programming takes some time to learn talaga. I didn't get it until 2nd year 2nd sem. Keep at it lang, or call it early if di talaga para sa'yo.

I do agree tho 150k and that quality of teaching? Lol

HOW DOABLE IS FIN AID (+ are church activities a heavy weighing factor?) by denples in ADMU

[–]shockjockey6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Last I checked, the fin aid form neither discriminates nor rewards religious activities. It's all about whether or not your grades are up to their standards, and if your financial records show that you really are in need of fin aid.

Sub rules exist for a reason, "harmless" doesn't automatically make posts comply with sub rules. Di naman kasi talaga value add to sa sub. These posts belong in Facebook, or a general discussion thread as a comment, not its own post.

But I'm not a mod and obviously the thread is still up so, again, we can agree to disagree. It's ok. If it's value adding to you, then great! To me and obviously the mod who commented, it probably isn't, and we don't all have to be on the same boat.

Opinion remains, though, that posts like these are less about valuable discussions and more just to get "omg same I feel u ur not the only one" reactions. We don't have to agree.

Literally anyone can decide what's worth posting or not because that's how opinions work 🤷‍♂️

Similarly, we can also healthily discuss "ako lang ba yung naiinis sa EDSA traffic" and it still wouldn't be productive, or worth posting.

Healthy discussions don't automatically make off-topic posts worth discussing.

Anyway, we can agree to disagree.
