Badly translated instructions for a LED PIR floodlight

[Commander Kinsey]

It's a pointless waste and inconvenience.

I can't understand strong accented Glaswegians or Irish. Can you seriously understand any American?

[Commander Kinsey]

Hello Rod.

[Commander Kinsey]

They also don't have an issue with topless women on any beach. Or even on the high street.

In fact isn't that sexism in UK/USA? To allow a topless man but not woman?

They're both outdated and I think based on something historical. Torch implies it runs on oil or something. Flashlight implies it only lights briefly.

ROFL @ "they hardly speak and English I can understand at times"

[Commander Kinsey]

You haven't seen the women around here....

That led me here ---->

Fun! ;-)

Typo corrected.

Any father of grown children know this to be true! :-D

What on earth does the word "re-parrot" mean? I've never heard that before.

[Commander Kinsey]

I don't understand the word understand. Surely it should mean you haven't done enough standing?

[Commander Kinsey]

Why do you assume it's a who and not a what?

[Commander Kinsey]

Don't expect the product to work either. The light is great, but the detector is not. To begin with it detected me moving around a lot at 8m (it was advertised as 12). Walking normally towards it, 4m! Later in the day, it started detecting non-existant things and was on 95% of the time. Then it decided to do the opposite and now requires my hand waving literally 1 foot in front of it. I shall attempt to get a partial refund, keep the lamp, and get a seperate detector.

Re - pair - it (Said with a Scottish accent!)

[Commander Kinsey]

ROFL! I was expecting one of those she-wees. Have you played that game, is it any good?

Say it out loud to a few people. :)

I'm not sure to what game you are referring.

I ended up here:-

Quite amusing! :-D

And we did the same thing to our parents... maybe not as much because things did not spread pre-Internet as fast as they do now.

Pretty much any American. There are some where the accent can be a bit of an issue, but not much.

That is like saying we do not need road laws. Of course we do. If some drive on the left and others the right and everyone makes up their own rules for intersection we have chaos and harm. Same with not having a plan to deal with a pandemic.

Absolutely, especially when it is still unknown what the long term impacts are. And we do not know the real death count... but this gives an idea (for the US):

Over 300K more "extra" deaths this year.

Which is very different from immune.

So not immune... and nobody knows the long term impacts. But still good news to know the direct short term impacts are not as bad as they could be.

What part escapes you? It doesn't matter if ALL apps are free to use, they require a physical presence to do the job and that part isn't free. That means translating from one source and writing it to another source. Get it?
