I'm Spanish, and the title not sounding natural to native English speakers is something that happens very often when writing in a language that you only learned at an older age. 

Keep in mind that living in an environment surrounded by a different language than the one you artificially try to communicate on comes with such disadvantage, because the grammar structures are not the same and, yet, your brain unconsciously tries to apply them because it is what it feels right or natural to do, even if it isn't.

PD: El País is a Spanish newspaper.

Here you have another view I took

Sure thing you can. It's called "La Pedriza" and it is located in central Spain. It is a popular hiking destination, even for families with kids!

As I grow older, I appreciate going out to natural spaces more than ever. This one is from yesterday's excursion.

I, as a Debian boy, respect Arch as a fellow community-held distro.

Hi! Thank you for your comment.

You are right in what you said; I should've phrased my question better. What I meant was that I didn't want the ChatGPT-like generative AI kind of thing that tends to hallucinate included in my translation solution of choice. I had just visited the Reverso website prior to writing this post and it was all like AI this, and AI that, and, frankly, it's gotten to the point where it is simply fatiguing to have those two letters shovelled up my throat permanently wherever I go.

So, yeah, I of course wouldn't mind my translator to keep using the kind of technology that makes translators function, but do despise the slop they are trying so hard for us to accept.

I have downloaded, but have not tried yet, Dialect on my computer, and am still looking for a solution for my phone.

Thanks again.

For real, not having the mouse slows you down big time, even though I'm more or less skilled at keyboard shortcuts

Fool of me, I searched "Great Tits" to learn more about this bird and, well... Don't do it.

 

With DeepL moving to AWS, I'll obviously stop using it and I am thus in search of a new translator solution.

I feel, however, as if most translators are jumping to AI and I do not trust the technology enough, so the question arises: are there any good AI-free translators left? I need both for PC and an Android app; searching on F Droid and Discover (KDE Plasma) brings some results, but I thought of asking you guys if you recommend something in particular.

Thank you very much and have a nice day :)

Yep, and that's why I use it.

[–] Cekan14@lemmy.org 1 points 2 weeks ago

That's also a good point.

 

As to why I still decided to purchase it, I also happen to be strongly anti-plastic, and this was the only bottle made out of glass in the oil section that wasn't absurdly highly priced.

I mean, I wish I am wrong and it is actually human-made; what do you reckon?
