    A disturbing trend?

    Absolutely not my intent to suggest anything like that :) Could be a false positive for all I know, but I figured the safest bet was to let you know just in case. Cheers.

    I've always heard it's wise to keep a few tucked away in your money belt for emergencies... /s

    Question about carry-on liquids at EZE

    Okie doke, thanks. That's the rule I normally stick to as far as quantities, but the airline's wording sorta made me wonder if they might have someone stationed at the boarding gate seizing travel-sized toothpaste or something, lol. I'm guessing/hoping they're just referring to people trying to...

    A disturbing trend?

    @PatriotsFan just FYI, I use Malwarebytes Premium for live website threat detection, and your link to "Ivory Research" is generating a trojan alert for some reason. I also tried going to their home page via a Google search, and Malwarebytes is blocking their entire site. Could be a false alert...

    Question about carry-on liquids at EZE

    Hola! I'm flying internationally tomorrow from EZE for the first time, and was a little confused on their carry-on liquids policy...was hoping someone could chime in with their experience. I'll be traveling for 27 hours in total, and normally I'd carry-on a small quart size bag with some...

    Western Union money transfer

    Anyone have success with WU today? Just went to my normal location at Peru/Alsina and they informed me that their computer systems are down. I asked if it was possible to go elsewhere and the clerk said that (to her knowledge) it's affecting other locations as well.

    (free giveaway) U.S./Canada to Argentina travel adapters

    I have three travel adapters (purchased from Amazon about six months ago) that I no longer need and am happy to give away for free to someone who can put them to good use. About a $40 USD value in total. The adapters plug into the local "Type I" power sockets, and allow you to use any U.S. or...

    Entradasba - buying tickets for theatres

    The list of theaters on the website is easily found and is limited to Colon, Sarmiento, and San Martin, which are all public AFAIK. I don't see any private facilities on the list of establishments. "Dropping a digit" is sometimes necessary for those of us without a DNI, as U.S. passport...

    Getting a non-VOIP US phone number from Tello for 2FA

    In my case I'm running dual sim, slot 1 is my physical Claro SIM, and slot 2 is my new Tello eSIM. Since both SIMs are simultaneously active, they're both (AFAIK) maintaining a constant search for cell tower connection - I don't think there's a way to make the Tello eSIM operate on Wi-Fi only if...

    Seeking 3 River tickets on March 6

    There are a couple of well-reviewed "soccer hosts" on Airbnb Experiences that do organized and guided game-day tours, might be a possibility if you don't want to go it on your own. You just pay them and then they take care of all the dirty work, including buying tickets and getting you in and...

    Getting a non-VOIP US phone number from Tello for 2FA

    @lunar I got a Tello number today to play around with it a bit. I used your referral code, so you should have a few Tello bucks in your account :) Interestingly, I've been able to get MMS picture attachments to work over Wi-Fi several times, both it's only consistently working for outgoing...

    Getting a non-VOIP US phone number from Tello for 2FA

    I wasn't inspired by their outgoing call and text rates from AR to USA - texts starting at 45 cpm, and calls starting at 69cpm: https://www.onesimcard.com/rates-and-coverage/?sourcecountry=AR&simtype=compare I'm not paying that. It might be good if you have a spare SIM slot and disable calls...

    Getting a non-VOIP US phone number from Tello for 2FA

    @elhombresinnombre I think my Dad would probably devour a plate of beans on toast, so I guess than makes him at least 1% British :) Being a heavy smartphone user, I'd have a hard time reverting back to my Nokia days, and unfortunately most U.S. carriers don't make it easy or cheap to continue...

    Getting a non-VOIP US phone number from Tello for 2FA

    As an American (and a mild tech geek) who travels and lives overseas for long periods of time, I agree wholeheartedly - I've certainly become accustomed to using Whatsapp for everything. Outside of the U.S., Whatsapp is just second nature to everyone and it's rare to encounter anyone who doesn't...

    Getting a non-VOIP US phone number from Tello for 2FA

    @lunar Tello sounds intriguing, I'm interested in checking it out. I currently use Google Voice as my primary for everything, and it's generally worked fine for 2FA purposes with several different banks and credit card companies. I also keep a backup line open with the TextFree mobile app. The...

    Carrot Cake + Empanada Hunt

    Sorry, didn't mean to unlock any repressed memories, lol. I used to watch Little House on the Prairie a lot as a kid and the character of Mr. Edwards (played by Victor French) would sing it a lot. The Bruce Springsteen version is my favorite: Anyways, I digress....back to the carrot cake...
