Nakita ko uli si swimmer pool guy. I think he's hot. It's really the stamina, waking up early in the morning dedication and the discipline that does it for me, okay hahaha. Meron pa siyang timer while doing his laps.
Sa aking training program naman, my plan is to increase my laps per swimming workout. I do have skills I want to improve on. I'm not going hardcore intense because I want it to be fun for me and wala namang humahabol sakin. Sometimes pag ubos na ako ng hininga one lap is just me floating around the pool.
I like how they maintain the pool, hindi matapang yung chlorine. Walang super dry reaction yung skin at hair ko pagkatapos. Also a perk of being early in the morning: I have the cr all to myself tapos tuyo pa 😌 ako ang taga-binyag jk. I think I might stick to this pool 🤔
Feeling ko di iaaddress ng movie yung excessive consumerism associated with Barbie. Baka parang SATC yung take nila, na yung fashion and accessories ay kailangan para sa self-actualization, na totoo naman, kaso dapat ibalanse sa climate change issues and how the fashion industry is a contributor to the problem.
I'm so demanding, I know. 😔 Naniniwala kasi ako sa kasabihang, "with great power comes great expectations." So nag expect ang lola mo.
Knowing Gerwig, those themes might make it to the movie. But I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't either since hindi papayag Mattel na ilicense movie nila just to have their company criticized.
nakakita kami ng kuya ko ng ufo dati dec. 21, 2012 dito sa puerto princesa. i took a picture, but with an ipod back in those years. i even used photoshop to adjust everything the camera was just so fucking bad. i stored the pic in tinypic, thought it would stay there
So malansa ung pancit canton na inalmusal namin today because we tried putting spanish style sardines and onions. Sana nag kalamansi kami to remove the smell before putting in the noodles.
Basically my tongue sang this to my brain as I soldiered on to finish the terror of a dish that we had created.
Surprisingly, masarap naman, medyo tumatambay lang talaga sa ilong ung lansa haha.
Props for experimenting! Inimagine ko parang pwede naman yung flavor, balancing the flavor lang siguro kailangan. Baka masyadong marami lang yung sardines, or maybe not the actual fish babawasan, pero yung oil (oil yun, ndi tomato sauce di ba?) ang babawasan.
Nacurious ako sa pancit canton, with its eggy flavor. Usually spaghetti ginagamit.
I'm no expert cook, pero feel ko parang kaya. Masyado lang overpowering ung lansa kasi tinanggal lang namin ung juices and sinarsa ung onion and diretso lagay ng sardines. I have to admit ung texture reminded me of tuna pesto and bigla ako natakam.
Siguro nga it could either be too much sardines (this was just one can to 2 packs of pancit) as well.
Naka mental note na sya and fingers crossed when we do it again it turns out better.
I believe it could work. Ang issue talaga is ung lansa. Siguro kung nag calamansi kami para maging chillimansi pancit, it would've probably worked. Worth a try next time.
Thank you Mod Team for the good artworks! Please keep them coming! Actually isa sa mga dahilan na tumatambay ako sa PHlemmy is for the daily artwork recommendations.
Thank you!
EDIT: So may bagong Wonka movie pala. I feel the urge to get chocolate.
Also, may you fall asleep and wake up in a blissful mood today/tonight. I know I did after listening to this
Man, in the past few days and weeks, Filipino film nerds in twitter and reddit swore up and down that IMAX is the only way to watch the movie despite knowing that we’re getting the cropped version.
Having just finished watching it, I pretty much agree with your insights. Clear audio is a definitely a must as I definitely missed some lines.
I'm seriously considering going to Vista Mall for the IMAX (and expensive tickets) if it means getting the sharpest picture quality and clear audio, although I'm open to suggestions. I just feel ripped off spending P500 earlier. After Barbenheimer, I don't think I'd be watching in the cinemas soon anyway. The better movies are in 2024 (Furiosa, the Gladiator sequel, Deadpool 3).
If Interstellar was known to push substandard subwoofers to the breaking point, I'd say the first minute of Oppenheimer alone is enough to plausibly destroy it. Sound design is definitely the film's strong point, not much the visuals which are few and nothing special.
That's why I would want to watch it again on a cinema that could show everything clear and sharp. Parang nanood lang ako sa Skyworth na LCD with blacks showing up like grays and faces looking like it was upscaled from 480p. It really soured the viewing experience.
I rarely pull out my smartphone in public transport, I usually just wait it out and pay attention to my surroundings. The only time I do is when 1) I'm sitting down in the LRT and, 2) have to set up Moovit to vibrate when I'm near my stop. It then goes back to my bag for the duration of the trip and zippers are sealed with an s-biner.
I think I could only have an album or two worth of songs on the phone. That usually meant looping back to the first song on the list by the time I'm near the end of my nearly two hour commute.
I also preferred to rip my own CDs at 128kbps bit rate and could only afford to store them on a 256MB or 512MB Sony memory stick; hence the limited playlist.
Listening to music on my portable music player of choice (Walkman way back then, and then MP3 player).
Without music? Just staring out the window, or people watching. I sometimes guess where people are up to after they've gotten off. On the train, I sometimes try to guess someone's station.
I sometimes read my school readings, but I tend to have really terrible headaches when I do this, so I just do this when I really have to.
Sleep, listen to the radio. Back in highschool yung driver ng service namin nakikinig lagi sa radio show ni mo twister dati. one of the top songs sa radio during that time was Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol ahhhhh. careless days.
My FIDE rating is 803, it's acurate since yung estimate ng noctie na 1122 yung Lichess rating ko which is 1175 yung actual is di na nagkakalayo, nakakatuwa lang kasi nadoble FIDE rating ko which is 400 lang last month since last month lang ako naglaro nung gumawa lang ako ng chess community sa chess tsaka lang ako nagsimula ulit
Just finished watching Oppenheimer in A-Giant Screen in Ayala Malls Manila Bay. Pretty solid experience overall. For the price of 550 (I opted for a skybox seat) you get a large screen, reclined seats, and free popcorn and drinks, so imo you really have no room to complain here. I was contemplating on going here or IMAX MOA, but ultimately settled here because we’re getting the cropped version anyway. The tickets there are also more expensive, no free popcorn and drinks, and you also can’t bring outside food and drinks. Also, I believe there are already audio issues over there, so to me it’s really a no brainer.
Most Nolan films are optimized for all formats. That's the point of shooting larger format. IMAX 1570 film is equivalent to 16K on digital format, but this is just hearsay.
That's what's expected, yes. Hindi ko pa napanood Dunkirk so not sure how Nolan does with historical drama. May habit din kasi siya with pretentious dialogue like with his Batman films or exposition-heavy to the point that it treats the audience like idiots (Inception).
But I did enjoy Tenet when I thought I was going to hate it, and still love his earlier works (Insomnia, Following).
The safe bet is Barbie, though. If you just want something light and fun.
Iniisip ko lang kung bakit excited yung mga male coworkers ko sa movie. Di naman sila mahilig sa ganung movies. Nadala lang ba sila ng hype? O sexist lang sila kaya gusto nila suportahan yung "kalaban" ni Barbie? O akala nila related ito sa Batman franchise? 🥴
Di ako close (my choice) sa kanila kaya di ko matanong directly.
True. Nagpalit ako ng OS, tumagal yung buhay ng laptop ko na mas mura. Baka microsoft office habol nila or may mga software sila na exe lang. Hehe idk.
tp be fair to the developers, the new OSes have gotten very user friendly. during the pandemic, i tried Xununtu on my dying laptop (was happy with Windows 7, accidentally pressed the update button, the laptop became perpetually frozen). had difficulty learning the CLI but once i learned the basics, using it was no different from using microsoft products.
i wish the govt will shift to FOSS products for all basic office tasks. laptops to be distributed to non-tech govt employees can come preinstalled with the needed software.
wish we start with state universities (eg UP), who opted for data privacy nightmares like Zoom and Google.
