Argentina inflation slows for a second month as President Milei keeps pushing austerity measures
Reply in thread
Inflation before him was 10% monthly. On his first month in office, he raised it to 25% thanks to his measures. Second month 20%. Now, at 14%, we're still 40% worse than the worst month of previous administration.
Prices are higher than the US or Europe now, while minimal wage remains unchanged at US$160. If he's into something, it is something bad for sure.

Nintendo Asks Wii U Owners To Refrain From Using "Unauthorised" Online Services
Reply in thread
Used to love Nintendo, but I had enough of their bullshit a long time ago. Last straw was they closing South America eShop, which rendered my 3DS unusable (game cartridges are expensive here, and you mostly get old games).
Of course, I ended up jailbreaking the thing, but I never again thought about purchasing any of their products anymore.

Google Maps tests new pop-up ads that give you an unnecessary detour
I've had something like this happening to me a long time ago. While going from a city in Uruguay to a city in Argentina, Google Maps "suggested" a route that was 2 hours longer but took me through the ferry (a paid business). Even though I chose "keep my route" several times, from time to time, the suggestion popped up with a "time limit" to confirm. If I failed to notice it, the suggested route would be selected.

Nintendo targets Reddit pirates in piracy crackdown
Reply in thread
Not only that. In South America, it is impossible to legally purchase digital Nintendo games. The only options are: overpriced physical copies (like, 2 or 3 times the original value), or create a US account (so, lying in the personal data) and buy prepaid cards online (also severely overpriced).
For some people, piracy is the only option.

Medidas y acciones en la primera semana de gobierno de Javier Milei
Decís "dentro de la ley todo, fuera de la ley nada", pero también decis que te parece bien que Milei haya cambiado la ley para contratar a su hermana porque "es muy importante"? Creo que el hecho de hacer UNA cosa fuera de la ley (bueno, no "fuera" de la ley técnicamente, siendo que el mismo cambió la ley para poder hacerlo) ya invalida el resto.
El hecho de cambiar leyes, códigos e incluso artículos de la constitución por DNU sin pasar por el Congreso también es ilegal, aunque ya sabemos que el poder judicial es cómplice de todo este desastre que se está gestando y no va a hacer nada (ver como ya fueron todos absueltos por sus reuniones en Lago Escondido, otro hecho ilegal que no niegan).
Lila Lemoine recibiendo dádivas siendo funcionaria pública? No pasa nada, miramos para otro lado. El mismo Milei antes de asumir recibiendo dádivas en forma de servicios gratuitos? También, esas cosas "fuera de la ley" parece que están bien.
Voy a dejar el post, obviamente, aunque me gustaría que bajaran un poco el tono pendenciero y prepotente. Eso de "te rompimos la colita, a chillar a la casa cuna" acá no va. El reglamento dice "sean respetuosos".
Saludos!

He's not. You're talking to one of the many zealots they have. While they close important ministries like this one, they are spending all the budget in online paid trolls (and it is not even a secret).

Far-right activists from Argentina praise everything he says. The current president constantly talks about him like some sort of deity. It's sickening.

It was banned because they refused to comply with anti-hate speech policies. According to musk, moderating his platform would be "political persecution" against those poor nazis.
