Oh, my bad, I have indeed confirmed that all nouns are capitalized in German... what I meant is that I'm not sure if that's the reason why English also does it (sometimes).
But thanks for the *confirmation! :)
Indeed, you're doing a great job, thanks for the efforts!
I've been seeing Imaginary Network's posts on my timeline. I thought about including them in the OP, but you look a bit more organized than the usual small subs, so I chose to focus on other parts.
Could you add an example of the passive / active difference? Because it's the opposite of what I understood from Hawke's comment.
Thanks for the help!
That makes sense!
So "for me" implies something is forced upon you, and it has nothing to do with what your opinion is about that thing... right?
Thanks!
From Beagle Bros - Wikipedia:
Beagle Bros was an American software company that specialized in creating personal computing products. Their primary focus was on the Apple II family of computers. Although they ceased business in 1991, owner Mark Simonsen permitted the Beagle Bros name and logo to be included on the 30th anniversary reboot of I. O. Silver, released on December 12, 2014 by former Beagle programmer Randy Brandt.

Where did you get those "1,000 human alive"?
What I read on that page is:
According to the genetic bottleneck theory, between 50,000 and 100,000 years ago, human populations sharply decreased to 3,000–10,000 surviving individuals. It is supported by some genetic evidence suggesting that today's humans are descended from a very small population of between 1,000 and 10,000 breeding pairs that existed about 70,000 years ago.
And "to me" sounds natural in all of them?
Thanks!
It's a matter of taste, so no one is wrong here.
For example Legolas in this (while butt-fucking ugly) shows concern and genuine shock whereas elves in the Jackson films are generally stoic.
That's a hard one. I don't have a strong opinion about each take. Legolas is not one of the best characters on Bakshi's film, and I don't remember enough about the book to say which one is more faithfull (if that's something you appreciate).
I just find the dichotomy interesting, I do revere Jackson's work as masterpieces of cinema.
Just to be clear: I think Jackson's films are incomparably better product than Bakshi's, they are not on the same league. 1978 version is not even finished! The only way you could compare them is by factoring their bugdets. But I don't know how to "divide my opinions by a number", hehe.
I like having both so people can choose, or watch both.
IMHO the old one is much more faithful to the "spirit of the book", but I'm highly biased. And I totally understand that all the problems with Bankshi's version are enough to ruin the film for a lot of people, specially if you watch it for the first time 45 years later.
The best example (to me) is Aragorn's reaction to Gandalf's "death": in Peter Jackson's Aragorn stops Frodo from trying to do something, but in Bakshi's, Aragorn makes a dramatic jump trying to save him which to me makes much more sense.
Not to mention everything related to Gimli.
Welcome to "La España vacía(da)" (the empty Spain)!
Although I must say that it's a bit missleading. I waited until there were few people to take the picture, I don't like to publish other people's pictures online.

La Comisión Nacional de los Mercados y la Competencia (CNMC) le ha colocado una sanción de 6 millones de euros a la filial de Naturgy, Naturgy Generación, que además deberá pagar una indemnización de 35,5 millones por manipular el precio de la luz.
Esto para la empresa son cacahuetes. En 2021 ganó 1.214 millones de euros y en 2022 se embolsó 1.649 millones.
Naturgy cerró el primer semestre de 2023 con un EBITDA de 2.849 millones de euros, un 39% más que el año anterior.
Ya saben, para que el robo sea rentable asegúrese siempre de robar muchísima más pasta de la que le pedirán por haberlo hecho.

False Eyes of a Hawkmoth Caterpillar (Green pergesa hawkmoth, Pergesa acteus). When at rest, its false eye wasn't visible as seen in the pic... when disturbed, it will tucked in its head and expose the false eye! Pretty cool! :) Taken at night in Singapore forest.
