absofuckinlutely DETEST autotranslation & localization. this is why i use VPNs: to search the web beyond gringolandia; to read the web in other languages & not gringlish.

if you want to know how pigheaded a business "culture" is, look at how they force localization ―and this includes search engines.

then there’s the damage done to plurilinguism by Microsoft Office.

i hate the illiterate techbro, one language at a time, model of reading & writing.

develop for plurilinguism or GTFO
Firefox uses on-device downloaded-on-demand ML models for privacy-preserving translation.

They're not LLMs. They're trained on open data.

Should translation be disabled if the AI 'kill switch' is active?
