Marami may sayad at saltik sa Pickleball, dami ko rin nababasa dito. Hindi naman lahat, pero parang may recurring pattern. Ang daming feeling pro at ang bilis magkaroon ng superiority complex kahit recently lang naman natutong maglaro. Yung iba, ginawang buong personality ang pickleball, tapos bawat post sa social media parang influencer, coach, o elite athlete na agad ang branding. May halong social climbing din minsan, na parang mas importante kung sino ang ka-court, anong club ang sinalihan, o sino ang kilala kaysa mismong laro. Kapag beginner ang kapartner, halatang tinatamad o iba na agad ang pakikitungo kahit open play naman at para sa lahat ng skill levels. Meron din yung mga mainit ang ulo at hindi sanay matalo dahil kulang sa sportsmanship. Parang ito lang yung sport na dito pa lang nag-excel, yumabang na agad at lumaki na agad ang ego. Ang dapat masaya at welcoming na community, nasisira dahil sa iilang malalaki ang ego at kulang sa sportsmanship. Base rin sa dami ng comments at kuwento ng ibang players dito sa Reddit, mukhang hindi lang pala ako ang nakakapansin nito.

Mega Thread ng mga paulit-ulit na reklamo at observations:

Just finished the latest episode and I’m still thinking about how Daemon and Rhaenyra basically went straight into the Red Keep with almost no one backing them up inside, dragons were outside, sure, but still.

It was intense and looked awesome, but damn… walking into the throne room against the remaining Green guards and loyalists felt pretty damn reckless. What if the Gold Cloaks hadn’t turned at the exact right moment? Daemon clearly had history with them from back when he gave out the cloaks years ago, but it still seemed like a huge gamble.

Hi! Does anyone know a reliable FB page or supplier that makes high-quality 1:1 temporary plates?

I already have authorization from LTO to use a temporary plate while waiting for my official replacement plate, which will still take a while to arrive.

The reason I'm asking is that I've noticed a lot of temporary plates on the road that are obviously temporary because the font, spacing, or overall quality looks off. On the other hand, I've also seen some that look almost identical to the original LTO plates.

I'm looking for a supplier that produces those cleaner, more accurate 1:1 versions. If you've personally ordered from one, I'd appreciate your recommendations. Thanks!

Hi r/WeddingsPhilippines!

Engaged na kami and we're planning our wedding soon, most likely sa Tagaytay. First time namin pareho kaya gusto ko lang sana makahingi ng advice sa mga nakapagpakasal na.

I've been reading this sub for weeks at napansin ko na paulit-ulit lumalabas yung topics about crew meals, OOTF, at kung anu-anong additional charges. Nakakalito rin kasi iba-iba ang policies ng bawat supplier. May iba gusto ng crew meal per person, may iba breakfast, lunch, at dinner pa depende sa call time. Yung iba pumapayag sa meal allowance, yung iba packed meals lang. Sa OOTF naman may transportation fee na, tapos may gas, toll, parking, at minsan accommodation pa. Hindi ko tuloy alam kung ano ba ang normal at ano yung dapat itanong bago mag-book.

Bukod sa mga yun, ano pa yung mga bagay na sana nalaman niyo bago kayo pumirma ng contract? May mga hidden charges ba na common? Ano yung mga clauses na dapat hindi mawala sa contract? May suppliers ba na mas madalas magkaroon ng issues, whether coordinator, photo/video, HMUA, florist, host, o iba pa?

Gusto ko lang talagang maging prepared para wala kaming maging surprise expenses o misunderstandings later on.

Hi everyone!

I'll be visiting Vietnam soon, and I'm thinking of buying a pickleball paddle while I'm there. I'd like to plan ahead and compare prices before my trip.

Is there a website, online store, or retailer that lists the official retail prices (SRP) of paddles in Vietnam? I'm interested in brands like Joola, Selkirk, CRBN, Six Zero, Gearbox, and Proton, but any reliable source would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Our neighborhood was originally developed as a gated subdivision. It still has an HOA and private security funded by HOA dues, although maintenance has declined over the years. Not everyone pays dues, but the HOA still collects them and issues vehicle stickers.

One of the subdivision's main roads was later donated to the government and is now a public road open to through traffic. Because it's a public road, the barangay also has personnel assigned to the area.

The problem is illegal street parking. Residents without garages park there, non-residents leave their cars for days, there are abandoned vehicles, and many of the illegally parked vehicles are those used by barangay officials, councilors, and a congressman. There are even trucks parked along the road displaying the faces of the councilor and congressman. Ironically, many of the vehicles occupying the street don't even have HOA stickers.

The LGU tells us to coordinate with the HOA and the barangay. The HOA says it's now a public road and beyond their authority. When I asked the barangay about the HOA, the response was, "Naniningil pa pala sila ng dues? Matagal na ring walang botohan." It seems there's little to no coordination between them.

Occasionally, the LGU conducts towing operations, but people appear to be warned beforehand, so the vehicles are moved before towing and simply return afterward.

At this point, it feels like residents are stuck in the middle while everyone passes the responsibility to someone else.

Has anyone dealt with a similar situation? Legally, who is actually responsible for enforcing no-parking rules on a public road inside a gated subdivision? If the agencies that are supposed to enforce the rules choose not to act, what options do residents actually have?

I recently bought a 2015 Toyota RAV4, and someone offered me a Pioneer AVH-A2150BT for around US$200. While looking into it, I ended up going down the rabbit hole of Chinese Android head units.

I drive a BYD and a Tesla, so I'm used to large, bright, high-resolution displays. That's probably the biggest thing I'd miss in the RAV4. My actual use is pretty simple though: Spotify, podcasts, Google Maps/Waze, wireless CarPlay/Android Auto, and a reverse camera. I don't watch videos or play games.

I've been reading a lot of posts on Reddit and XDA, and brands like Teyes CC3, Joying, Dasaita, Mekede/DUDU, and Eonon seem to have a pretty good reputation.

For those who've owned or used these, would you still go with the Pioneer, or would you pick one of the Chinese units? Which brand would you recommend today for reliability, screen quality, responsiveness, sound quality, firmware support, and long-term ownership?

Hypothetically, if someone has screenshots of a person openly selling marijuana buds and fake THC vape cartridges on social media, how useful are those screenshots to law enforcement? Would they be enough to start an investigation, or would authorities usually need to conduct surveillance or a buy-bust first?

Let's say someone is openly selling marijuana buds and fake THC vape cartridges on Messenger and Instagram, uses delivery riders to distribute them, and even sells to minors. That person has also been saying for years, "Kapag nahuli ako, ilalaglag ko lahat."

If that person is eventually arrested, does simply naming people who allegedly bought from them in the past have any legal effect by itself? Or would law enforcement still need independent evidence before those people could face charges?

Akala ko pinakamahirap na part yung paghahanap ng matinong unit. Hindi pala. Pagkatapos magbayad at magpirmahan, saka magsisimula yung tunay na laban: encumbered na CR, Release of Chattel Mortgage, Registry of Deeds, cancellation of encumbrance, HPG, LTO transfer, at iba't ibang sagot depende kung sino ang tatanungin mo. 2026 na pero parang kailangan mo pa ng law degree para lang mailipat sa pangalan mo yung sasakyan. May naka-experience na ba nito recently?🤦‍♂️

Sa mga laging nagco-comment ng "AI slop", ano work niyo at paano kayo personally naapektuhan ng AI?

Did it actually reduce your income, cost you clients, make your skills less valuable, or are your concerns mostly about training data, privacy, water consumption, energy use, and environmental impact?

I'm genuinely curious because a lot of anti-AI arguments seem to come from very different places. Some people are worried about jobs. Some are worried about ethics. Some are worried about the environment. Some just don't like the output.

So what's the actual reason for you? Has AI directly affected your livelihood, or is your opposition mostly based on where you think the technology is heading?
