DnD Central / Indeterminate subject
In Portuguese, "they" has always been used as an indeterminate subject. It's OK to say "they stole my car" when I don't know who "they" are, or even how many "they" are. Actually, we use it all the time.
Though, because of verb declination, we don't really have to spell "they" - the verb does it implicitly ("Roubaram meu carro"), giving a better idea of an indeterminate subject.

DnD Central / The chosen one
Well, he is the chosen one (by your fellows). And there's nothing wrong at looking to the sky. I do it every day. It isn't raining right now.

DnD Central / No holes
Yes. Strictly speaking, a black hole is black but is not a hole.  :rolleyes:

DnD Central / Holes
Strictly speaking, by definition, no hole can be photographed; just the stuff around it can. :sherlock:

DnD Central / Java ME Facebook
There is a Java ME Facebook installed on my Nokia feature phone.

(I don't have a FB account... I just installed it by curiosity, to see how it would work with my wife's account. Very limited, indeed.)

DnD Central / Volvo!
We should replace our jails by Volvos.

DnD Central / New Nova
Every thing called "New" (the meaning of "Nova") will become old sooner or later.

I wonder if there's a demand for new languages.

The company where I work has suffered for developing fantastic new products for which nobody was really interested.

DnD Central / Happy valence
Hmmm... Perhaps "valence" evaluates how close a waveform matches Pharrell Williams' "Happy".

That's easy. :)

DnD Central / Uruguay rules!
"Next to it"? According to South American standards, yes. According to European standards... it's quite far away. :)

We need more than prosperity tricklings down here. :awww:

Edit: we are getting more tricklings down from Venezuela right now. :cry:
