McDo latte and Burger king's salted caramel coffee are 👍
McDo latte (I ask for less ice) is 👍. It’s sweetened already. But not all the branches have it.
Burger king’s salted caramel coffee is 👍 too. I ask for less ice.
If you want Starbucks, their latte is 👍. I ask for sugar and less ice.
I read that unsweetened latte or flat white is 👍. I haven’t found an espresso shop that has 👍 unsweetened latte or flat white. I may be so :) after tasting such a drink.
I’m not a veteran espresso drinker.
Duterte Is Enjoying the Due Process He Denied to His Thousands of Victims
In Duterte’s Philippines, due process was not a right, it was a privilege that was not extended to the victims of his drug war.
The human cost of Duterte's war on drugs
In 2016, Duterte’s drug war left 26,000 to 30,000 families, fatherless or husbandless. The wives and mothers of the killed victims are left trying to make ends meet for their families. The documentary follows three women named Maria after the bloodbath of Duterte’s drug war.
Duterte, 79, appeared at the hearing via videolink, with presiding judge Iulia Motoc citing his prior “long journey."

Split keyboard users in PH
Any split keyboard owners here? They seem to be terribly expensive with very few choices. What's worth pruchasing for portability and quality? I currently own a Delux 920 Pro but that thing is bulky to travel with.
EDIT-06April2025: I bought a second Mistel MD770. AMA related to the keyboard.
Errors on Sync for Lemmy
Anyone here use Sync for Lemmy? This week it's so slow and has many errors for me. I went to the Sync community. I learned that other Sync users had issues too. The last update was March 2024. Had to download another app. :(
My 📱 is the Samsung a70. I picked Voyager.

“My culture my nationality is everything to me. To be able to represent the Philippines – there’s not too many Filipino athletes doing it at this stage, especially in the NFL"
Special teams coordinator Dave Toub commented on his kick returner on Friday.
Nothing has come easily for Kansas City Chiefs kick returner Nikko Remigio. He spent all of last season on the practice squad and didn’t even have a space in the locker room; his locker was in the equipment room last season.
...
Speaking to reporters on Friday afternoon, Chiefs special teams coordinator Dave Toub said that beyond his work ethic, part of the reason Remigio has seen so much early success on punt returns is that he is still improving as a return man every week.
“During the regular season, he got better and better and better,” Toub remarked. “And now, in the playoffs, he’s really hitting his stride, and his confidence is high. And that’s what you want in a punt and kick returner is confidence.”
Along with his confidence, Toub said that he was impressed by Remigio’s tenacity.
Tenacity is a trademark of Filipino culture. When times get tough, you don’t just dwell on it, you keep fighting (or, “laban lang,” as they say in Tagalog, which translates to just fight).
