I'm surprised they haven't been sued by the Green Bay Packers for ripping off their logo... https://www.google.com/search?q=green+bay+packers+logo

Another measure to probably have on hand if you're working remotely is to checkout where the conferences you would be better for attending are. Again, there are tons of conferences happening of all sorts of disciplines there. If they have conferences there they probably have a strong local group...

I'd be interesting in hearing the reasons you've come to recognize as to why it hasn't been so good for you in the long run. Seems like you have some cautionary advise you wish someone would have told you going in that might save some others some time. Personally I'm in love with the culture...

lol Okay I totally over looked your Veteran status and am realizing it right now, my mistake. $10k< what I meant was that you probably don't want to try to enter the country w/ $10k. My numbers are probably a little high, I like to play it safe when estimating. Maybe they'll help someone...

If you're freelancing and remote I would put emphasis on internet connection. In Argentina it can be hit or miss depending on where you stay, at least there are a lot of cafes that have a decent connection. In my experience going from Argentina to Uruguay and Chile have been breaths of fresh air...

Here's a street view of the coffee place :) https://www.google.com.ar/maps/@-34.59308,-58.401718,3a,75y,103.3h,89.03t/data=!3m4!1e1!3m2!1sZLfZ6jJt_IcEpbfgUCykpQ!2e0!6m1!1e1

I so needed to read this. I'm the sort that lives to do what I do for a living, to me 70 hours of work/study each week is the norm. There's is just so much to do and experience that the friction between how you probably view maximizing time vs checking out and having a good time becomes quite...

Oh I'm there! rsvp! @esteban - what game?

The subjunctive would probably be my biggest difficulty too! I can't think of the evidence to really contest the whole "wtih exception of cases like 'if i were you'" - my argument would be that context can be a pretty heavy hitter. To me it endless, the familiar, comfort... it's endless the...

This is such a great channel. <3

Hi everyone! I used to help run a real estate investment association (REIA) and a lot of things from that are forever burned into my brain. Couldn't help but get caught up in reading this thread, but I guess I'm off the wagon now, cheers. It would be so much fun to participate but I'm so far...

In my time here I've really experienced little racism. Like it took me some getting used to how people seem to have no problem referring to some as "Chinos" and "Negros" but baseless bitterness isn't that profound as I've experienced in the US. Somewhere along the line I picked up that being...

I know where I'm going to be 7:30 - there! :D woot!

You would think the right would care enough about self preservation to just roll with the universal healthcare idea. We're well overdue for a pandemic and in such case you don't want 40 million people uninsured who may have symptoms reluctant to go to the doctor. That's insane. Other...

I just got back from Colonia the other day and the ATMs do offer withdraws in dollars but I decided to pass on it. I second the notion that Colonia really does have some nice hotels, I couldn't have been happier with the internet there (working remote, a big deal to me). Here's my reasoning...

I tried the food court there and it wasn't what I think you're recommending... what part of the mall do you recommend? This has been something of a thorn in my side for the past couple months, so thanks a ton for array options you've all suggested. Totally made life easier for me, thank you...

Hi everyone! I'm a programmer working remote and I have a lot of files to download/upload/backup. I know there's free wifi at McDonalds, but speed and file integrity... kind of important and McDonalds isn't going to cut it. So if you had business you had to take care of online, what would...

I thought this was a position unique to Minnesota (Twins, Vikings, Wild, I guess the Timberwolves... lol) but I guess not! Growing up I'd swear we had the most frustrating teams to root for. Even when we have a star (we're really good at pulling random stars miraculously) like Kevin Garnett...

Oofta, that -21c temp is the reason why I made the leap to snowbird - really nice that NFL game pass exists for free down here. :)
