@IvyPatdu ang mga ganung information gathered using promos, di ba yan covered ng dpa?
Quoted FloydWhaley's tweet:It is amazing the amount of personal data that is being harvested by businesses in the Philippines, with personal information collected for rewards programs, promotions, and raffles. One Manila restaurant offered me free nachos in return for a vast amount of personal info. https://twitter.com/neltayaoINQ/status/1172356882909892608

I had been waffling on getting a new external HD for a while, but a couple of days ago one of my friends posted about her backup drive failing at 6yo and I was like “all my drives are older than that” lol

So I remembered that I once used an app to make a font patterned after my own handwriting (). For fun, I tried to see what my website would look like with this font. OMG, this is why I don’t like handwritten notes lol
Quoted roytang's tweet:I totally had more important things to do, but it was there so…

I finally watched Dark Phoenix today. It was not as bad as I thought it would be, but the #xmen jet did have a port where Cyclops could put his head so they can use him as a cannon, and apparently Nightcrawler can teleport 4 people across an entire city so there’s that
some weird character choices too. I mean, Erik’s lackeys were basically random unknown mutants (I didn’t even realize who Selene was supposed to be until she fell off the train). Not to mention the obscure Marvel alien race in the movie.
At least we got our space firebird thingy so there’s that

The interface for the standard 2020 event on #mtg arena is so clunky. They could have at least default the deck selection to what I was playing last time

I will admit I enjoyed the #MTGEldraine brawl on Arena. I may get into this format if it becomes regular, so that I have a palette cleanser for standard #mtg

Not a fan of the templating “When <trigger condition>, do X, then do Y. Do Z.” The full stop after Y makes it like Z is a separate thing, since it’s no longer in the same sentence as the trigger condition. (Yes I know it doesn’t work that way.)

It’s midnight here in Seattle, which means it’s time to move the countdown to SIX. #MTGEldraine

People dunked on this tweet, saying, in essence, “This isn’t 100% correct - you shouldn’t pay attention.” But that misses the point. The value of any model is that it’s simpler than reality so that you can gain insight. Here are the insights I have gained from this model. https://twitter.com/RichRogers_/status/1159872097205805056
