    Correctly translated, but the sarcastic tone does not carry over if you intend to use it that way (literally: that's regretful).
    Oh it can translate over well enough I suppose. Whether the person on the other side (en or jp side) understands subtle sarcasme is another question tho. You can always add これは to it.
    Then again, it wouldn't be very subtle anymore at that point, lol.
    これは {残念です。}

    Some funny things in there. Kind of amusing to see the auto-translate translate things like the ones you posted.
    And it reminds me how rude or less formal the english versions are.

    Nothing wrong with autotranslate here, but I find sarcasm just doesn't work very well in asian cultures in general
