i prefer to not read the text i cannot understand. there is zero
information in Chinese, or Thai, or even Spanish for me. those texts
looks (for me) like gibberish anyway. so i don't care if they are
displayed correctly or not. that's why i using one-byte encoding and
happy with it.

no, i don't understand this. for me Chinese glyph and abstract painting
is the same. and simple box, for that matter.

only one: trying to paste URL to google translate and then trying to
