No, it’s 2GB per month, not per day. It’s enough for occasionally checking emails, but not much more than that. If you need more, you can buy additional data separately. By the way, I think other companies charge you for 500MB per day on their prepaid plans, even if you are on Wi-Fi all the...

The 2GB is just a bonus for adding balance to the account. With the 7 thousand pesos you top up, you can also buy another 6GB if you want. So, essentially it is an 8GB plan with unlimited calls for 7 thousand pesos, Or 3,500 pesos if you pay through Claro Pay. For comparison, the regular price...

Well, Argentina is still seen as a safe haven from international conflicts, so at least that part of the appeal remains.

Option 1. Google Voice. You sign up at https://voice.google.com and can call US numbers right from your browser on your Mac. No extra hardware, free domestic US calls Option 2. Sip Softphone / Sip Provider. Install Zoiper, then open an account with a provider like voip.ms or Callcentric...

Doesn’t BNA charge USD 10/month to maintain the USD account?

I just received a new Capital One debit card, and it’s branded as Discover. I hope it will work with Western Union here.

And on top of that, you can use the Claro Pay app. It is essentially a wallet like Mercado Pago for QR payments, etc. You can load your money there first and then pay for Claro services like buying packs or adding balance. This way, you effectively get a 50% discount. You pay the full amount...

These are special benefits for loading balance, described on Claro's website. So much for being "unadvertised."

I guess those pork chops must've been 1,000× more delicious in the U.S. then? How far does your "deliciousness" scale go - into the trillions?

Argentines were on the other side of the trade. Whether it was regular people or the central bank.

Since each peso was worth more at the time of sale, the Treasury received more dollars back than it had spent, making a profit. Yep, they were supporting Milei and just happened to make some money along the way.

"Nobody likes it there" is probably a bit of an exaggeration - the place has its charm. But to be fair, even one of George W. Bush’s daughters had her purse stolen in San Telmo while under Secret Service protection. I guess that says something about the area.

I absolutely agree. That's the perfect way to notify people about email problems.

Google? Geoblocking Yahoo? Are you able to access your Yahoo email when you’re on the Wi-Fi here? Do it from your computer to get the Google factor out of consideration.

We are not there yet. It has to do speech-to-text, translation, and text-to-speech at the same time at a decent speed. These are three different models. And it has to work without the internet, have a screen, and be portable. Well, a gaming laptop with a decent NVIDIA graphics card might...

If even ChatGPT says it, it must be the best possible option. On the other hand, if you plan to use a phone for business and will be spending several hours a day on calls, I wouldn’t rely on a free service that’s clearly labeled for personal/consumer use.

I'm under the impression that now you can bring in up to 3000 USD worth of goods per year for personal use without any duties, no?

Well, have you ever been to one of these Chinese pay-by-weight places? :) Mollejas? Seriously? My bet is it was just a piece of pork rib without the bone, or some other nearby pork cut. And to the topic starter: if you’re looking for inspiration, get yourself a great steak somewhere and then...
