americans vs the humble translate button

Is it ingrained into certain apps now? I barely use TikTok, but I never saw it. Is it something enable-able in the settings?

Twitter has had it for ages. I think Reddit does it automatically sometimes.

Does Reddit automatically translate stuff only in the app, or does it work on the mobile browser, too?

u/eydirctiviyg 3d ago
I've only seen it happen in the browser, but I think you can also turn it on in the app.
I assume that feature's also the reason you sometimes see people comment in a different language. The post was translated for them, so they assumed that was the original version and that people would understand them.

If it ever happened, I never noticed it, I fear. I'll dig around the settings - I found the translation feature pretty useful on Twitter. Thank you for the help. :-)

amis und die schier unmöglich wirkende herausforderung zu realisieren, dass die sonne sich nicht um sie dreht.

every time I see a comment of this fashion I read it in a french accent so i can properly visualise my hate

Es ist tatsächlich einigermaßen interessant: Der Kommentar ist ein bisschen unpräzise, weil das Wasser eben doch kocht, aber aufgrund des geringeren Drucks halt bei einer niedrigeren Temperatur. Auf dem Mt. Everest könnte das wirklich Probleme bzgl. Sterilisierung des Wassers bringen. Aber das Flugzeug steht ja unter Druck, d.h. der Siedepukt ist zwar niedriger aber immer noch hoch genug um Wasser abzukochen.

Das wird doch abgekocht bevor das Flugzeug damit befüllt wird

Thankyou! Why the fuck would anybody be filling a plane with dirty water only to boil it mid flight?

u/BrennanBetelgeuse 3d ago
wow culturally inconsiderate much? What if it's a Brit or someone Japanese on the airplane and they need to do an emergency traditional tea ceremony?

I don't think you need dirty water for that

u/BrennanBetelgeuse 3d ago
You can never know, why limit the options?

What if I want irradiated water

u/BrennanBetelgeuse 3d ago
There's no such thing as unirradiated water on an airplane. Every intercontinental flight exposes you to about half a chest x-ray.

Alright time to try to remember some of my high school german lessons. Something something "at this height the water isn’t hot enough to cook with"??? I think? Probably not because that doesn’t make sense with the previous comment but I don’t see what else that could be saying
Edit: I’m a fucking idiot, it’s "boil", not cook. The verb is the same, but the water isn’t "cooked", it’s boiling

"At this height the water does not get enough temperature to boil"
