TV writers were right in 2023 and are being proven more right every day — there was a stable television model that made everyone lots of money and put out good shows. Then execs with no understanding of the industry confused the production model and the distribution model, and they blew it all up.

my favorite thing ever said in any movie - for realsies - is in the climactic line in gattaca, where ethan hawke tells his brother that the reason he was able to best him in their symbolic childhood sport, long distance swimming, is that "i never left anything for the way back."

To my subtitler colleagues out there, this is time-sensitive and critical to our survival. Think long term. Colegas de TAV, es imperioso que negociemos tarifas justas y sostenibles en este momento crucial. Pensemos en frío y a largo plazo. #StandTogether #HagamosPiña

In light of recent changes to subtitling workflows, many linguists are onboarding with new agency clients who are offering unsustainable per-minute rates...

WADJET EYE IS 20 YEARS OLD!! Which means it’s time to celebrate with another group photo. It’s frankly ridiculous that the universe has allowed me to continue doing this for so long. I’m grateful for it every day. Thank you all.

For some people, video games are about the wonder of exploring strange, thrilling, action-packed worlds but for me the joy of video games has always been all about moving to a franchise-centric planning strategy to better focus resources on long-term growth and stability amid broader restructuring.

Localsoft has long been known as a non-creditor in the industry, their CEO Randall Mage stating that "Clients usually don't want to credit [localization teams]", despite being proven wrong countless times over the company's 28 years of tenure.

Todo es posible si cargas lo suficiente el cubata.

People who spiral out overusing LLM chatbots are really just experiencing the kind of brain-damaging stream of unconditional validation that’s always been the norm for the hyper-wealthy, which explains a lot.

Tiene que ser una experiencia el sentarse en este banco a las 4 de la tarde y sentir como te metamorfoseas en un gofre, tu último pensamiento antes de tostarte por completo es un anhelo inhumano de ser rociado con chocolate, y después, la oscuridad

None. A good translator will find a local equivalent (and have done in the past). A good translation is NOT transcription. It gets the vibe right. Which is why I insist a human translates my novels, not "AI."

Ya han subido a Movistar+ y a plataformas de alquiler esta fábula rocambolesca de Anders Thomas Jensen sobre la identidad y las heridas abiertas con mi traducción para doblaje. Obladí, obladá.

"AI is inevitable!! It's here to stay!! Can't put the genie back in the bottle!! You can't stop progress!!! But uhhhh... if we had to legally obtain the resources needed to run our business AND unless we make trillions in profits AND unless you give up your drinking water, we're kinda toast 🥺"

Vamos, que no han pedido a la distri los derechos para el pase, sino que se la han bajado de internet y a correr. La distri facilita la versión oficial (obviamente). CUTRES.

ayer fui a una sesión sorpresa flashback de estas que montan en los Cinesa cada dos semanas y me resulta increíble que los subtítulos estuvieran pillados directamente del archivo de fansubs de aRGENTeaM

Since March, the Steamworks API can provide wishlist breakdowns per language. I'd love to compare data from devs that decided to translate their Steam page and those that decided to use EN only. If anyone wants to share some data on that, please let me know. ☺️

34 °C en Dinamarca en junio, pero al menos Paco puede preguntarle a la IA cómo se fríe un huevo

Y luego ciertas plataformas sacan subtítulos automáticos (revisados o no) y hay gente que flipa porque "para ser automáticos tampoco están tan mal". Tú pierdes muchísima calidad en tu experiencia y las empresas chorromillonarias tampoco se ahorran tanto; cada vez pagas más por menos.

Subtituladores currándonos las traducciones para que suenen naturales, con oralidad, adaptando referencias y humor, todo eso mientras nos aseguramos de que los subtítulos sean cómodos de leer, con una velocidad aceptable, en pirámide, sin dividir sintagmas, quitando redundancias... Al milímetro.

yeah but the rich already got richer and the richest of them will survive the bubble popping and create a new speculative market to continue ratfucking the rest of us. i just want people to be able to buy food, man

"You can either fry or not give me a lot of money" is one hell of a pitch

La nueva película animada de Disney siendo descaradamente "The Owl House pero sin esos molestos gays" gana capas si tenemos en cuenta lo que ha estado firmando la creadora de The Owl House desde huir de la compañía: un thriller psicológico acerca del infierno absoluto que es trabajar para Disney.

hey so fun fact if you go to any link in steam and right click it, a fun option "Open link in new tab" pops up This opens up a chrominium window that lets you redirect the client to any link you want. since it's chrominum, you can install whatever addons you wish to steam.

The idea corporate AI will be used to liberate independent creators is so fucking trusting it’s almost tragic. You couldn’t find a more opposite belief from the reality of the situation. Corporations only want to crush independent outlets, as evidenced by them, y’know, doing it for decades.

Again, if anybody had thought to talk to the translators that were among the very first guinea pigs for much of the underlying technology and workflows for over a decade, we could've told you this is exactly what would happen to your productivity. But who needs to put a face to translation anyway? 🥴

"First they came for the translators, and I did not speak out, because I was not a translator."

Scorsese “only” uses AI for storyboarding. Devs “only” use AI for translation. Because we’re somehow essential for these products to even exist or be sold internationally, but a replaceable foot note at the same time. Funny.
