Microsoft are still doing their forced and absurd localization in all their garbage.
Being forced to use their software while outside an English speaking county is terrible.
- Fokamul 2y agoDo you realize you can just switch language and locale with few clicks. What's the problem there?
- flohofwoe 2y agoOne problem is that a lot of translations in Microsoft's documentation are subtly wrong, but you don't immediately notice because the grammar is correct. And this problem already existed before machine translation was a thing (I guess MS just hired translators who were not familar with the documentation's product or even 'computer-lingo' in general).
- johngladtj 2y agoThat's not actually true. Many times in corporate environments you don't have permissions to do that, and let me tell you it's a pain when you 5 layer down a RDP rabbit hole to figure out which locale you're using
- 7734128 2y agoHaha, hardly. That's far from the case.
