As an Argentine I feel so fucking embarrassed. Can't believe I lost the opportunity to take these two birds with one stone

Argentine here! Some of my favourites:

" Para andar a los pedos más vale cagarse "

Roughly translates to: "better shit yourself instead of going farting around" Worth noting: "andar a los pedos" also means being in a hurry.

" A caballo regalado no se le mira los dientes "

Roughly translates to: "Don't look at the teeth of a gifted horse", meaning you don't look for defects in things that have been handed to you.

" Siempre hay un roto para un descosido "

I think the English equivalent is "there's a lid for every pot".

" Lo atamos con alambre "

Translates to: "tie it down with wire". Usually refers to get something going even if it's barebones or a shaky fix.

I'll be thinking of more and maybe drop another comment later.

Sure I hate Peronists as much as the next guy, however you can't possibly be arguing in favour of austerity when rampant poverty is killing off your populace. Milei is a piece of shit that perpetuates impoverishment by also taking debt with IMF while cutting national industry via privatisation (none of it is bought by Argentine interests, all of them foreign).

That's why sharing tools or information via libraries is the most convenient and efficient way of managing. We don't need to own everything if it's easily available for everyone.
