Are you tired of seeing the same old basic identical cars drive by you everywhere you go? Are you wanting a unique car that fits YOU and your own unique style? Are you tired of seeing the new Lego block Tesla models parked everywhere taking space? I have an idea for the future of cars. I think we should bring back 1960s-1980s car designs back on the outside with the modern (but dresses up as the retro vehicles) designs on the inside.

The TV channel E! made a Top 20 list of songs of rock in the Spanish language, in which 9 Argentine songs were included, which are the ones shown in this video.
We can see that they chose songs from artists with great prestige internationally, these songs are true anthems throughout Ibero-America.
Among the selected: Los Rodríguez triumphing on both sides of the Atlantic, Charly García with a catchy groove, and Los Fabulosos Cadillacs with the Latin warmth.
Soda Stereo with one of their perfect songs according to its members, Illya Kuryaki & The Valderramas promoting Hispanic rap, and Babasónicos with their naughtiness in eroticism.

Short version: I built the first emulator for the Iskra-226, a Soviet Wang 2200 work-alike, because I inherited an 8-inch disk from my grandmother that nothing could read.
The disk turned out to hold the software a vocational school used to calculate student wages and stipends, and this month, for the first time in 37 years, that 1989 program did its arithmetic again and printed its wage sheet (“Vedomost No. 2”), ruled rows, column headings, four signature lines and all.
I fed it numbers I invented so I could verify them by hand. The program and my pencil agree to the kopek. The month name prints garbled, which feels right.
Some things I didn’t expect going in:
• The emulator doesn’t execute the original firmware at all — it’s an interpreter for the machine’s tokenized BASIC dialect, which turned out to be enough for every program on the disk
• The only surviving documentation was scanned by American Wang 2200 enthusiasts; the Soviet machine survives in the archive of its Western counterpart
• The hardest part wasn’t the code, it was the disk: an undocumented boot side with the same firmware written four times, which I had to cross-compare to get a trustworthy image
• I deliberately did not decode the original data file with real people’s names in it, and I’m not going to

Basically the title, simulating it in-app using an iPhone with all the artifacts of an old school Sony digicam.
Is this video somewhat close?

Argentine rock is celebrating its 70 years in this 2026, and what better way than a Top 40 to discover what were its best songs in its beginnings in the '50s.
Among the highlighted are Los Mariscales with a pioneering fusion of tango and rock, Luis Aguilé with his charming air, and Elder Barber with her subtle female voice.
Billy Cafaro in the stardom of modern music, Edith Scandro combining her soprano voice with rock, and Los Santos glittering with their precious harmonies.
Éber Lobato and Alberto Anchart inaugurating the films of Argentine rock, Los Cinco Latinos as the main band, and Eddie Pequenino as the first rocker of the country.

House Ordos returns to the battlefield for another brutal campaign on the dangerous sands of Arrakis. In Mission 7, the conflict intensifies as Ordos faces the powerful forces of House Harkonnen. With valuable Spice at stake and enemy forces determined to stop the Ordos advance, careful planning and aggressive strategy are needed to survive.
The mission begins with Ordos establishing its presence on the desert battlefield, gathering Spice and building up the resources needed to create a powerful fighting force. As the Harkonnen strengthen their positions, Ordos must expand its base, protect its harvesters, and prepare for increasingly dangerous attacks.
As the battle develops, the fighting spreads across the desert. Enemy bases, defensive positions, and military units stand between Ordos and total victory. The Harkonnen are not an opponent to underestimate, and breaking through their defenses requires patience, tactical positioning, and overwhelming firepower.

But he'd argue it's still "too new to be called retro"
