To warn engineers who are working on the tracks? We are close to the LSM and this happens periodically, usually at night.

I'm not in BsAs right now but I did listen to your Soundcloid demos. Just out of curiosity, did you have a different producer on "Carry in our Hearts"? For me, that was the standout track. Thanks for sharing.

I'd be intrigued to know what you are using AI for. Do you have a serious purpose or are you just playing around with it to see what happens? And if the former, is it faster/better than the way you did things before? I imagine AI can be extremely useful for speeding up processes in an area where...

This. And if you have a credit card which was issued by a UK bank then double-this because, thanks to a law passed in 1975 (The Consumer Credit Act, Section 75) subject to a few exceptions such as the disputed amount being more than £100 but less than £30,000) the card issuers are obligated to...

Well spotted @Redpossum! The shonky PhotoShop/AI picture, coupled with the departure from the norms mentioned by @FrankPintor made me wonder if the whole thing was a fake news story but no, although the picture doesn't seem to appear elsewhere, the announcement is almost word-for-word taken from...

Thanks for that @sergio Anybody without a NYT subscription may have difficulty reading that article so here's an archived version open to everybody. https://archive.ph/FCrti

There's even a Sourdough Library (I kid you not - Google it!) where they store hundreds or maybe thousands of samples from all around the world.

It's been a while since I've made reference to Anne Tyler's book The Accidental Tourist but since many of the people who were around on those previous occasions have gone now, maybe I should mention it again?[1] If you'd rather watch the movie than read the book, there's the Kathleen...

I was so sure that disinflation wasn't really a word that I went and looked it up. It is really a word! Just as reflation is subtly different from inflation so disinflation is to deflation. It implies an action.

In my opinion, @Ries is probably the member best positioned to advise you about this. If he doesn't pop into this thread soon, why not send him a DM? Several apartments I know in Buenos Aires have solid wood parquet floors - including ours. They are more common in older apartment buildings -...

If that's the Feria de la Ciudad I'm surprised about the minimum quantities. It comes to Plaza Arenales in Villa Devoto on Tuesdays and just along from Estacion Antonio Devoto on Thursdays and although the vegetable prices aren't much better than shop prices you can buy as little or as much as...

Rather, I think I'd say that it was a Northern Hemisphere thing. Latin American politics never really fitted into the Left-Right continuum - especially Peronism which has always been blatantly both left and right. And even in the Northern Hemisphere it seems less a straight line and more a...

Beautiful use of irony there @julia_en_ruta if I may say so. (Newbies might like to read the Wikipedia article on the barra brava <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barra_brava> especially the bit about two-thirds down which says: "They often provide services to political and union leaders who hire...

I am sure @perry already knows that Italy is a special case and the price controls on a single shot of espresso imposed by their government in - wait for it! - 1999 when the country converted to the Euro, are still in play. They apply only to a single shot, served standing at the counter: if you...

Thanks to @antipodean for posting this to BAExpats in 2021 https://www.iatatravelcentre.com/AR-Argentina-customs-currency-airport-tax-regulations-details.htm

Short answer? None. It's on the prohibited foodstuffs list. That's not to say that I haven't done it - just to say you do it at your own risk

Way to go, bro.

Take a look at Español por imagenes ISBN 9789871631261 Available in Buenos Aires from Las Mil Y Una Hojas bookshop on Córdoba 960. It's aimed at teens and young adults and it is specifically Rioplatense Spanish. The shop calls itself a Librería Franco-Argentina and I would guess this book and...

"Venti ice Latter" I thought that's what Julius Caesar said after he invaded Britain? So all along, all he wanted was a coffee. We have to ask: was it worth the effort?
