That's an awesome site...XD
Well, it wasn't the alternator at all. Just the engine itself, so it's going to be around 2,000 dollars like I said. I'm honestly happy
this happened NOW - because that means with a new engine I'll have it for a couple more years.

I'll have my car back on Monday, though.
Oh, true, main thing is you're happy :D Glad you're getting your car back quick too.

Because Mateusz got inspiration from Bing...XD

So I used the example they gave and got this:
Original text:

"Thoust needs potato"

...35 translations later, Bing gives us:

"Thousands of potatoes."
Original text:

"Thousands of potatoes."

...35 translations later, Bing gives us:

"There are thousands of prisoners."
(turned to "Prisoners" thanks to Japanese/English/Korean...somehow...)
Original text:

"There are thousands of prisoners."

...35 translations later, Bing gives us:

"There are about 2,000 prisoners."
(Haitian Creole turned it into two thousand)

And I give up.

I like to think that the bad translator is like the I Ching from the amber spyglass.
Whatever you type, whenever you hold a question in your mind, it answers your question in a roundabout way.

That in mind:

"toblerone giraffe eggs are not delicioius."

...35 translations later, Bing gives us:

"Makoroi is a triangle, a giraffe, and Switzerland."

Learning AS3. Feels like broken both legs and trying to learn how to walk again. Just like 2005 allover again.
