Hope you look up what Ford's Ceo had to say about Xiaomi cars. I have a feeling that you won't like it.

If you ever tried to learn Chinese, you wouldn't be saying any of this.

I strongly object to the claim "In reality, English spelling is more like learning Kanji." as someone who had to learn both Chinese and English characters.

The company will also focus on content creation targeting gen Zs. All of this coincides with the TikTok buyout, as noted in the article and acknowledged by Netanyahu himself.

Same. On an android browser, not signed into any Google accounts. Got the legitimate result at the very top.

Otter browser

Ungoogled Chromium

The Android version https://github.com/macchrome/droidchrome/releases comes with customizable adblock filters e.g. easylist, I don't care about cookies, EasyPrivacy etc. that I'm no longer forced to put up with Firefox's jank just for some decent adblocking on my phone anymore.

Yeah they do, add it as a bookmark and launch from address bar. I do it on Firefox for Android and Bromite all the time.

The article had earlier mentions of live animals, I find it odd that it didn't bother you until it got to 'cats'.

They didn't take it over "forcibly", they took it over with popular support from the Chinese people. If that doesn't grant you legitimacy I honestly don't know what would.

Just going by the abstract that you linked, that study seems to only relate to the past 100 years.

And extrapolating this to the middle ages and earlier:

In general, countries with a lower overall life expectancy had a lower number of women per 100 men aged 75+, while countries with higher overall life expectancy had a higher female to male ratio in this age group. A hundred years ago there were nearly equal numbers of women and men aged 75+ in many countries.

It doesn't seem to disagree with me at all.

Citation needed. A quick Google search on life expectancy during the middle ages tells me that men lived longer than women.

Provide some evidence for that statement, please.
