To people who mindlessly criticize machine translation based on screenshots / abortive attempts, I provide the following allegory:

One day you hear that you can ride a bicycle to get somewhere faster than walking.  You immediately fall on your face as soon as you mount it, and declare, "Bicycles suck!  Either walk or buy a car!"

The bicycle is machine translation.  Walking is waiting for an actual translation.  The car is learning Japanese.
