Using nominal GDP instead of GDP adjusted for purchasing power parity (PPP). America still leads in the former because the same goods and services cost more there than in China.
Christopher Rodriguez tried to detonate a bag of explosives at the embassy in Washington, D.C., by firing a rifle at it but missed
They keep missing!

Top 10 photos to scare a liberal with
For the record: he's a former MP for Likud, between 2013 and 2015. He now has his own far-right party (named "Zehut" aka "Identity") and would run against Netanyahu in the next elections, according to Middle East Eye. https://www.middleeasteye.net/news/israeli-former-knesset-member-moshe-feiglin-invokes-hitler-while-calling-gaza-resettlement
I have stumbled upon this website that I have never seen talked about, yet seems to have an extensive library with easy navigation: https://myrient.erista.me/

I've noticed that a lot of new smaller titles are rogue-likes/-lites. Why is that?
Looks a lot like MultiMC at first glance (it's a fork of it apparently). What are the differences, should I switch between the two?
Wouldn't that relatively low price be offset by Russian salaries being way lower than American ones? Even the median salary in Moscow, where the creator lives, is significantly lower. Recent figures on purchasing power in Russia only go back to 2022, where $1 is equivalent to approx. 30 rub. (source: OECD) That would make the "true" price of that wedge of cheese $6.67
My mother is Russian and has some contacts and family in Russia. She went to Saint Petersburg last year for personal matters. She often talks about how little the ruble is worth and things being more expensive. Is she exagerrating?
The last point reminds me of notions of "my religion tells me to be racist or homophobic". Like, if your "homeland" (your homeland will always exist as a land, separate of whether or not there's a "Jewish state" there) can only exist through ethnic cleansing, I'd argue it's right to ask Jews to denounce it, AS WELL AS all non-Jews who support it, because most Zionists are not Jewish.
In the 2000 years or so since the Bar Kokhba revolt, Zionism has only existed for the last 200 years. This is like Dutch racists appealing to tradition to defend our blackface helpers, when Sinterklaas didn't have any helper(s) at all for centuries.
Also, I accidentally read "Eden Yadegar" as "Eren Yaeger" lol
Today's "Did you know?" also has this:
And a previous one felt like propaganda, like "Did you know... Russia bad?":
