Literature of Costa Rica: September 2016 by AutoModerator in books

[–]fernleon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"God was looking the other way" by Jose Leon Sanchez. Or "La Isla De Los Hombres Solos" (The lonely men island) in the Spanish original. Is arguably the Papillon of latin-america, a terrific book if you can find it. Perhaps the most internationally famous biography to ever come out of Costa Rica. Written in a naturalistic style by an ex convict depicts the 30 the years he spent in the CRs devil's island. A classic!

Does anyone have any experience with Investors Visas? by Doncuneo in IWantOut

[–]fernleon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just helped a family member arrange for his son to get an eb5 investor visa/ green card with a very reputable lawyer (with 100% success rate) here in the US. The cost of the investment is $500k plus another $50k for the administration and legal fees for the regional investor hub so that you don't have to open a company yourself but you invest the money in a large pre-established pool of investors. The money should be refunded after 5 or so years but you get your visa right away. I investigated this and if you have the money it seems to be the most reliable way to get a green card.

First attempt at making a doom screenshot, turned out pretty good by throwmeawaaey in Doom

Did you set the in game resolution to the maximum resolution on your monitor? Doom textures are extremely high res with the correct settings imo.

Can't advance past "I am Vega" by GraduallyTorgue in Doom

Same thing happened to me yesterday, I think there was a stuck monster or some type of bug. Once I reloaded the game today I regressed to where I still had 2 cores (from a total of 4?) to destroy and then the final sequence worked without issue and the door a top the elevated ledge was accessible... have you tried reloading? also aren't there 4 cores?

What do you guys think of the new game? by DrSoap in Doom

It's awesome! It's the most visceral and enjoyable first person shooter since Half Life 2! On pc at least...

Does Pablo Escobar in "Narcos" have an accent? by TheDyingDandy in Colombia

[–]fernleon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It kind of does.. She's really bad for Colombian standards and could not get hired there... Had to come to the States to get a job....that's how good colombian actors are, the shittiest there are the best here.

It kind of does prove my point... She is in the States cause no one in Colombia would hire her cause she is so lousy in comparison to the other great local actors....

Questions regarding names of colombian people? by rustyrockets in Colombia

[–]fernleon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The feeling is mutual. You know how preposterous and hideous the combined Anglo-American first and middle name combos sound to my Hispanic-Colombian ears? See some real gems I just pulled from a website... I bet they seem pretty great to you guys. You guys have millions more random combinations than perhaps all the cultures combined!!!
