A bill filed in the Florida Senate would officially recognize gold and silver as legal tender and repeal state taxes on both. Passage into law would set the stage for the people themselves to undermine the Federal Reserve monopoly by introducing competition into the monetary system.

@taylan @anemone @waifu @coolboymew @urchin Real average salary (converted from ARS to USD or EUR) is up about 300% compared to 2023 in the public sector and 400-600% in the private sector.

Poverty is down almost 15 points interannually. Indigence is halved. Food welfare for children is still standing, as are basic unemployement benefits, with the added advantage of now having a hotline to report welfare hostage situations, which were extremely common during the previous administrations (to the point there are leftist leaders on trial for offering welfare checks in exchange for sex). Welfare debit cards are also now being adjusted to prevent the money being spent in stuff like alcohol and cigarettes.

Child poverty statistics are extremely skewed because the previous welfare system benefitted individuals with many children, so welfare leeches would have many children to reap checks well above average wages. It should not be measured by "which % of children are poor" but rather "which % of families with children are poor", which would give a much clearer picture of poverty in the country with much better numbers.

All numbers have improved since Milei took office. The numbers were abyssmal in the first few months because the previous adminstration was so unbelievably awful that Milei inherited a country at the verge of complete collapse. Massa was the de-facto president for one year and he caused the real exchange rate to rocket from 1USD=300ARS to 1USD=1250ARS with barely any wage updating. He also spent 15 billion dollars of state money on his campaign. Meanwhile the champion of feminism president Fernandez was busy punching his wife and playing the guitar.

It's an unfathomable waste of money, considering in 2016 Trump spent 300 million on a campaign for the USA (319 million people) and Massa spent 15 billion in a country with 45 million people.

Argentina's debt was of roughly 450 billion dollars when Milei took office. The only non-left wing administration over the last 25 years was infinitely criticized for taking 45 billion debt to mantain wages and state expenses. The other >400 billion were all the peronists.

The fact that the country didn't explode in january is nothing short of a miracle. And now the currency is stable, real GDP is increasing, wages are starting to outpace inflation and unemployement keeps going down.

No sane person can possibly say Milei's first year at the helm of Argentina has been anything but exceptionally good, and no one who has even the most basic level of political and economical understanding can blame the economic situation of his first few months on him, since policy has long term rather than immediate effect.

@ArdainianRight Parents need to be willing to kill those who harm their children.

Mostr Bridge is still under attack by people trying to suppress the free exchange of information online.

The USPS is good for nothing. I had a package delivered on the 24th. Another package was supposed to be delivered on the 26th but they claimed the address is inaccessible and blocked redelivery requests. I submitted a help ticket and was told the package would be delivered today. It was not. Additionally, the USPS retaliated by holding another package that was scheduled for today, claiming it was "at the customer request". We made no such request. I hope the USPS is privatized. They're garbage and need to be hammered like the ugly as nail sticking up that they are.

The thing I like about January 1: Public Domain Day. https://web.law.duke.edu/cspd/publicdomainday/2025/

PSA: If you want to help 86Box emulation accuracy, the project is seeking dumps of ISA plug-and-play cards' PnP ROMs to facilitate more accurate emulation. Here's how you can dump your retro rig's PnP ROMs easily:

1. Download https://github.com/86Box/probing-tools/releases/download/2024-02-06/probing-tools-2024-02-06.zip
2. Put isapnp/ISAPNP.EXE on your retro PC
3. Run ISAPNP.EXE on the retro PC (if you have many ISA cards, consider running it many times as to cover them all)
4. Respond to this Fediverse message with a ZIP file containing the output .BIN files!

Sound Blaster and ESS Audiodrive dumps are particularly sought after by the project (including duplicates - a few undocumented revisions have been spotted this way), but any and all dumps will be useful long-term! Thank you!

welcome to costco i love you
