Source language: Portuguese

Cada vez mais os humanos tornam-se dependentes da tecnologia, quase todos dependem de telemÃ³veis, de computadores e muitos nÃ£o dispensam os seus iPods ou as suas agendas electrÃ³nicas.
E desde que foram inventadas as mÃ¡quinas que substituem o homem nas suas tarefas, como por exemplo os aspiradores autÃ³nomos, parece que se tornou um hÃ¡bito criar mÃ¡quinas para nos tornarmos uns verdadeiros dependentes de robÃ´s.

Title	More and more humans become dependent on technology
Translation English Translated by mgannon	Target language: English Humans become more and more dependent on technology, almost all rely on mobile phones, computers and many do not do without their IPods or their PDAs. And ever since they invented machines that replace humans in their tasks, such as the autonomous vacuum, it seems like it has become a habit to create machines so that we become truly dependent on robots.

"Cada vez mais os humanos tornam-se dependentes da tecnologia" Actually, "cada vez mais" does not refer to people, but to "dependent", therefore the line should read: "People/humans become more and more dependent on..." "Dispensar" here means "prescindir" (to do without), not "desistir" (give up) You changed the syntax of the last line, but I think it sounds better than it would sound the original one, so I guess it's fine Tell me what you think and if you agree, please click on "Edit" and make the corrections, OK?
