  1. Hey guys! I would like to know which are (or if there are) first person shooters for android that allow you to invert both "x" and "y" axis. I can only play with both of them inverted, and it's so frustrating to realize they don't offer this option anymore in modern games... This is the first time in my life that I own a powerful android device, (seriously, I was playing solitaire on my Moto G up to three days ago), and I was so excited to finally play all modern games out there! But all fps games I've tried so far don't have the option to invert the "x". So, if you know any fps games that allow inverted camera, please, leave a comment below ^^ For the record, I own a Galaxy S6, so, no Fortnite here. And if you've never heard of people playing with both axis inverted, yes, they exist, I'm here, and inverted controls has been the natural way for me to play since my first experience with 3D games on my PS2. I guess people's brains work differently, and I wish developers realized that.
  2. Hello dizmo! And thank you for taking your time to reply. So, I have checked the Express Entry eligibility before, and I'm already at the immigration system under several occupations of "Level A" (Professional Ocupations). I fulfill all the criteria required, except that I have not yet proved my English skills through the IELTS test. This is just a technicality that I'll have to deal with before my application is accepted. After the application is accepted I'll have a final score that will tell me how likely I am to be accepted through Express Entry. This is one of the options, and I'm trying it, but it also requires an amount of money that might be irresponsible to dispose at my age, which is: all my economies (and some family loan)! A job offer would be stepping into a comfort zone. I don't care at all not working in my area for some years, or being relatively poor, as long as I have dignity in life. I know I have enough qualification to be hired, but I get it, sometimes it's tricky to convince companies that you're a valuable cost-benefit investment. Why Vancouver?... Well, because it doesn't freeze when the winter comes! I was born and raised in Brazil, and I try to stay away from below zero temperatures! I also consider going to Alberta, more because of the landscape and the rocky mountains than anything else. I have lived in Montana/USA, which has a similar weather and landscape, and I loved there! And that made me acquainted with the 8 month winter! It's not ideal, but doable in a settling in period, then later I can consider moving out or not. Another province I'm considering is Ontario, but just because there are big cities there, and therefore more opportunities, nothing personal.
  3. Hello fpo! Yes, I know that I'm particularly interested in migrating to Canada, and they also have this kind of assistance. But even so, it's more practical and easier to apply for this kind of visa after a job offer. And besides, the amount of money that I have to show is way less than if I enter the country without a job (which is kind of necessary in my case, cause I don't have extra "K's" in my pocket, hahaha). I have two art degrees, one bachelor and one master degree but they are not as required by other countries as an engineering or science degree.
  4. Hello RumSwift! Thanks for your reply! I particularly don't understand it as discrimination (even though I wish it was different). I think that a country has to take care of their citizens, and guarantee that their people have jobs, before others can take the spare spots. As far as I know, Canada as a country doesn't require a lot to permit that a foreign work in their territory. Because of that, some companies state the preference for nationals. In the USA, for example, in order to get a job there, one has (technically) to prove that can perform a job that an American can't. Again, I understand the protectionism, the difference is that in this case it comes from a federal level, which makes it harder, I think.
  5. As a foreigner, where to start to look for a job in Vancouver/Canada? If you're not familiar with the criteria selection of some companies, this question may sound strange. I mean, just go online and google "job sites canada", or something! In fact, I've been through this process already. I went online and applied to some jobs. But the thing is, many companies explicitly say that they will give preference to Canadian citizens (which is only fair if you ask me, it's their country after all). Which makes the process a little bit tricky if you want to immigrate to Canada, like me, and don't have an specific education highly required by the government. So, does anyone have an idea of places that are friendly with foreign applicants? I'm looking for something in the creative industry, international relations or tourism area. Or in other words, my goal here is to find people telling me things like "hey, where I work we hire international people, this is the name of the place, take a look!". Thanks guys!
