Google announced Wednesday it was adding 20 new languages for its mobile translation application that reads text and instantly converts to another tongue. The smartphone app now can read 27 languages and instantly convert the text without an Internet connection, the tech giant said. Google also said it was making voice translation "faster and smoother" in the Translate app, which can interpret street signs, ingredient lists, instruction manuals and other texts. The real-time text translation began with seven languages—English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Russian and Spanish. The new ones added are Bulgarian, Catalan, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, Filipino, Finnish, Hungarian, Indonesian, Lithuanian, Norwegian, Polish, Romanian, Slovak, Swedish, Turkish and Ukrainian. Additionally, one-way translations are available from English to Hindi and Thai. Google's picture mode translation, which requires a snapshot of text, can operate in 37 languages. The California group said the new features come from extensive research to develop so-called "convolutional neural networks," or using artificial intelligence to recognize letters and words and filter out backgrounds. "We've still got lots of work to do," said product leader Barak Turovsky. "More than half of the content on the Internet is in English, but only around 20 percent of the world's po[CENSORED]tion speaks English. "Today's updates knock down a few more language barriers, helping you communicate better and get the information you need."

Windows 8 was Microsoft's way of modernizing personal computers, as smartphones and tablets grew more po[CENSORED]r. But it came across as trying to shove a square peg into a round hole. It steered people toward tablet-like touch commands, even on desktops and laptops that had keyboards and mouse controls. Apps that weren't designed for touch—including Microsoft's Office—got shoved into the basement, known as desktop mode. Desktop mode and tablet/touch mode were like feuding siblings, each seeking to dominate in a high-stakes tug of war. With Windows 10, everyone gets along. There are still separate desktop and tablet modes, but you largely stick with one or the other depending on whether you have a keyboard. (Microsoft skipped Windows 9, by the way, as though to distance itself from Windows 8 and its criticisms.) Although there are a few reasons to hold off upgrading, which I'll explain below, Windows 10 is better than Windows 8 in many ways: ___ WINDOWS APPS OPEN AS WINDOWS Apps for Windows 8 were designed to take up the full screen, just like tablets. Although you could split the screen, apps could be placed only side by side, not top to bottom, as you'd probably want when having email and streaming video open at once. With Mac computers and previous versions of Windows, you can resize windows however you like. With Windows 8, that was limited to apps that hadn't been adapted for touch—the ones kept in the basement, segregated from the newer apps. Windows 10 restores resizing for all apps, touch or not. It sounds cosmetic, but it makes a big difference in fitting in with your workflow. ___ SINGLE START SCREEN With Windows 8, the corner start button in desktop mode got you to a full-screen, graphical start page in tablet mode. You had to return to the desktop mode to run an older app, even though you were sent to tablet mode to launch it. With Windows 10, the start button functions the way it did with Windows 7 and earlier. The graphical start page from Windows 8 is embedded in that start button, so that it feels modern without making you chuck old habits. You can still get a full-screen start page, but it's not forced on you. ___ LAPTOPS WORK ON THE GO As Microsoft shifts its focus to online services, it has been steering users to store files on its OneDrive online storage service. As with Dropbox and Google Drive, OneDrive typically keeps copies of all your files on your computer so you have them while offline. Any changes you make sync with the service once you're back online. ___ SINGLE BROWSER Internet Explorer is gone as the default browser, replaced by Edge. You get some functional improvements, such as a virtual marker to draw arrows or circle an entry on a Web page to share over email, Facebook and other means. Even better, you no longer have separate browsers for desktop and tablet modes. With Windows 8, when you opened a website in desktop mode, it didn't show up in tablet mode. You had to open it again. With Windows 10, it's a unified browser, so you pick up where you leave off if you switch modes. Some websites, including those from Google, aren't as smooth on Edge as they are on other browsers, but the problem might be limited to Microsoft's Surface tablets. The sites work better on an HP laptop upgraded to Windows 10. You can still get Windows 10 on Surface and install a different browser, such as Google's Chrome. In addition, IE will still be available for older websites that need it, but it will stay on the sidelines as Edge takes center stage. ___ SHOULD YOU UPGRADE? I've been using a pre-release version of Windows 10 for a month without major problems. As with any upgrades, make sure your favorite apps and accessories will work, as it might take time for outside developers and manufacturers to catch up. Microsoft's Get Windows 10 app will check for known problems. Back up your PC first. If you're using a low-end "Home" version of Windows, Microsoft will turn on [CENSORED]ure updates automatically once you get Windows 10. That is normally a good thing, especially as Microsoft plans to add features regularly, rather than wait for the next major release. But automatic updates might surprise you with incompatible apps and accessories. You might want to wait a few months to see whether these automatic updates cause any meltdowns for others. In addition, Windows 7 users who use Windows Media Center or have DVD players might need to find replacement software first. The free Windows 10 offer is good for a year, so there's no rush. The case is easier for those using Windows 8, including the Home version. The experience is much better, making any potential upgrade hassles worth it.

While this list is in no particular order, Planescape: Torment still deserves to be near the top. Black Isle Studios, the titans of Dungeons & Dragons CRPGs, turned convention on its head when they crafted this Planar adventure. There are no more typical fantasy races, morality is not defined, or is at least mutable, and every character attribute is tied to conversations and out of combat actions. It’s a game of philosophy and discovery rather than a monster slaying adventure. “What can change the nature of a man?” is the question at the heart of Planescape: Torment. The Nameless One is an immortal amnesiac, living many lives, doing deeds terrible and great, changing the lives of those around him, often for the worst. Waking up on a mortuary slab, the mystery of his past propels the Nameless One through the Multiverse, one of the most bizarre settings of any RPG, where he deals with Gods, zealotic factions - like the Dustmen, a faction that believes life is a fleeting precursor to the ultimate existence: death - and mazes both mechanical and magical. The ambition of Planescape: Torment would have been for naught were it not for the superb writing that accompanied it. Chris Avellone and Co penned a tale saturated with nuance and memorable characters that, even 14 years on, stands the test of time and has yet to be outdone.

There are two types of long-term Dragon Age fan: those who despise the Deep Roads and those who don't mind the Deep Roads. I'm in the latter camp. Extended underground sections are to fantasy games what Tuesday is to the rest of the working week: something you're just going to have to get through, one way or another. The Descent marks Inquisition's most substantial foray into Thedas' squarest and most orange series of tunnels, luring you in deeper with the promise of loot and a mystery to solve. That mystery is not, as PC Gamer's Phil Savage suggested, "why are we still going to the Deep Roads." Nor is it "what lies beyond the Deep Roads" because the answer to that is "different caves, which are blue." The secrets lying at the end of The Descent will be of interest to hardcore Dragon Age lore fans, fleshing out another aspect of the series' esoteric but well-conceived fiction. I'm one of those people and I'm glad I played it for that reason. But this is otherwise a story-light expansion, with only a handful of quips recorded for each of your companions. The plot is held together by two new characters, dwarven scholar Valta and Legion of the Dead commander Renn, who are likeable but whose journeys are familiar and brief. The cinematics are of a notably lower quality than those in the base game or Jaws of Hakkon, and if you stick to the critical path then you'll have seen the entire thing off in three hours.
