Every time I get it (like once every 2-3 years) for me it’s never with diarrhea.

Just agonizing with a lot of vomits, fever, congestion, coughing, muscle pain etc.

If I tip I generally do it based on the work/effort rather than the price.

Wearing deodorant has nothing to do with bathing regularly.

You can bath regularly and not need deodorant, every body is different. Also depends on the activities done between each bath/shower.

Now some people do not bath regularly and use deodorant or perfume, that never ends up well in terms of odor.

I’m worried about Putin getting old and still in power in charge of the warfare.

Offtopic (because it has nothing to do with Russia): in Argentina the inflation of the local currency this year reached at least 100% annual.

But people there use USD fiat for purchasing real estate. And use USD/EUR for saving.

So even if the local currency is a mess, people moves using foreign currency for important transactions.

If you say this you give a shit about quality of life.

If everything goes well (I’m being optimistic)…living on an island and with 2 kids (1 already incoming).

And hopefully not travelling much for work. Ideally no more than 2 or 3 times per year.

Milei probably has a small resemblance with DT. Maybe just a small percentage, but that is enough to call him a Full DT by the press in the rest of world. It is just cheap press.

The guy has a lot of cons and pros. But he is not a DT. He is mainly an economist. Not a businessman.

Argentina as always is a sinking ship with a lot of holes. Every year there are more holes. They still have not found a party that can close those holes. And there were only 3 big parties.

Perhaps a new party (like the one from Milei) manages to start closing some of those holes. Perhaps they keep opening holes like the current party. Even if you put the best party ever made, it would take 15-30 years maybe more to recover. You have a lot of adults that never worked (legally) and live from the state. It takes time to educate the new generations letting them know that money is not always a free thing that comes without working. (And you cannot tell them “now you have to find a job” in the short term otherwise the country will go violent. Therefore no matter how far right the party is. It always end up adapting to a situation to control the masses that requires socialism).

Time will tell about what will happen if the same party (probably was the worst government in the past 30 years) wins the election. But nowadays the country is at worst since I was born. 40% poverty (oficial, real is perhaps higher ), 100+% annual inflation (not even the old 20-30% annual). It is probable that the current government will never leave and will stay on power just like it happens in many other countries, like Venezuela. (While it is still a totally different country, we always compare to Venezuela because the current party always liked Venezuela as a role model to follow).

I hope not! But with 40+% poverty… soon there will not be enough tax payers to cover the costs but maybe hyperinflation puts a stop to the excess of public spending (printing ARS money) to solve any problem.

I never said that…

Argentina has above 100% annual inflation at the moment, right?

USD It is the second most popular currency in Argentina.

And the first choice for savings.

(I’d prefer EUR rather than USD as it’s more decentralised).

I don’t think that switching to USD is the best solution. But at least it should limit the ridiculous amount of money printed. The inflation in Argentina is crazy.

In Spain if we were the only owners of the Euro we would be printing money to solve absolutely any problem. Generating even more inflation.

I see this as part of the experience one has.

My rule is to not take anything that has information from the client.

For example I generally just create a txt file with a few example of “how to do this or that”. Generic stuff. So next time it takes me much less time to do the same thing.

For me. 100% remote.

But I work more for objectives rather than gross time/days. If the project is falling behind I work extra to gain some safeguard. If the project is going well I work more relaxed.

I don’t mind working extra hours if I’m already saving a lot of time avoiding travelling to the client or going to the office, living in another place away from a city. Etc.

In Spain it is also yearly. In general the annual salary is divided in 14 payments, unless you ask to have it divided by 12, depends on the employer, so it makes sense.

The income tax is also annual based. So depending how much you earned during the fiscal year you have a different tax rate. (And part of the income tax rate is dependent on the “state” but they are all more or less similar).

Beep Beep. Thank you for the update.

This is my favourite Lemmy app. (And Infinity for Reddit my favourite app for Reddit).

I liked the older name more but the new name is still good. It’s just a name.

• 2 TB nvme for windows + apps + steam/games + cloud drive (google drive) + user data

• 1 TB SSD for personal offline data / photos / torrent.

Any decent coin, not just the USD.

EUR, GBP, CHF, whatever.

But to simplify they use the USD as reference. EUR is probably the second most used.

ARS loses its value minute by minute.

So in that plan/summary I like many of the reforms mentioned.

The ones I don’t like are the ones mentioned everywhere else (newspapers) regarding the abortion, potential gun law for the population, and stuff that generally is more like a contra for this new party, than a pro in my opinion. If all that stuff is actually not in the plan, then I’d be more relaxed with this new party in the government.

But at the same time. Most governments in Argentina end up doing more or less the same. In the plan the parties look so different but in reality they end up being more alike (after 4 years).

In the end I hope the country progresses. There is a lot of poverty, every year is getting worse. And the more poor countries in the world, the worst for all of us.
