"promising to take a Japanese document and spit out a English, Chinese, or Korean translation on the fly [...] could well result in some unintentionally hilarious copies. [...] the device also promises to preserve the original layout of the documents copied, with it apparently making use of some special algorithms to distinguish between text, lines and images"

I have recently found a web page translated into several languages by some machine translator or other, and at least the Spanish version is so strange that I wondered how they did it. Now I understand, they just used a fax machine!

What really wonders me is the fact that some people strongly believe in the high quality of these "translations"!

Une cardio- séance d'entraînement de snobs
Pendant que je lis attentivement les pages de diverses questions de vacances de mes magasins préférés de forme physique/womens I notent beaucoup d'articles concernant les avantages du yoga de pratique à ce stressant pour chronométrer de l'année. Le risque de ressembler à d'un cardio- snob, si j'ai 30 minutes par jour (si je suis chanceux) et moi doivent atteindre dans un équipement spécial dans environ un mois et une moitié. ▲ Collapse
