HanBaoBao VS argos-translate

The Opus OpenSubtitles corpus was very useful when I was creating this Chinese-English dictionary app: https://github.com/ReubenBond/HanBaoBao. The tool which creates the dictionary database aggregates several sources, including processing Chinese subtitles for word frequency to inform the most likely cuts when performing word segmentation.

Interestingly, I think this is actually related to the offline translation features built into Firefox. Both are products of "Project Bergamot", but the Mozilla-maintained version was later merged into the Firefox application:

Extra webpage with screenshot and links, impossible to search for normally:

Does one thing and does it well.

Oh— For downloading models, it's much easier to pipe/`xargs` `translateLocally --available-models` into `translateLocally -d` than go through the GUI.

Other self-hostable translation tools:

https://www.apertium.org/index.eng.html

- Traditional rule-based translation. Seems to work pretty well, but no good desktop frontend.

https://www.argosopentech.com/

- Works, but crashy desktop app.

https://libretranslate.com/

- API wrapping Argos Translate.

https://lingva.thedaviddelta.com/

- Google Translate scraper/privacy frontend.

https://euroglot.com/

- Proprietary, subscription trialware.

Consider a free software alternative to this translation service, such as Argos Translate or its web based frontend LibreTranslate.

LibreTranslate (which uses Argos Translate) from my understanding, but I don't think it can be used to translate entire websites

This looks pretty legit but I haven't tried it: https://github.com/argosopentech/argos-translate

Google translate is both censored and intentionally flawed. Here is a better option: https://github.com/argosopentech/argos-translate

Argos Translate can do everything that LibreTranslate can do on your desktop without uploading translated text to the Internet.

Argos Translate has open source neural machine translation https://github.com/argosopentech/argos-translate

I'm trying to upload a Mac app to the App Store and need to take screenshots at 1280x800, 1440x900, 2560x1600, or 2880x1800 resolutions. I'm developing on a Mac Mini connected to a HDMI display and I'm unable to run at any of the required resolutions. I'm currently trying to take the screenshots through VNC using the Mac Mini in headless mode. I have the VNC server running (System Preferences > Sharing > Remote Management) haven't been able to set the resolution. How do you set the resolution when running a Mac in headless mode over VNC?
