Classical guitar. I bought a digital piano and learned some easy to intermediary pieces, but I have been focusing only on guitar. I made a classical guitar arrangement for the soviet anthem, but I don't have a set up apropriate to make a nice video. I also compose music for these instruments.
The animal I talked about is called "onça-pintada". It's not necessarily black. It's the third biggest feline, being smaller than the tiger and the lion. It's the most powerful predator in Amazon rainforest. People often say it's the most powerful in the Americas, but they are wrong, then. I didn't know the english words for "onça-pintada" and "jacaré" and just put them in translator.
The jaguar (onça-pintada) should be higher. They are arguably the most powerful predators of the Americas. They can run up to 80 Km/h; they can climb trees; they have jaws strong enough to crush bones; they are proficient swimmers, being able to hunt prey in the water, including alligators; their roar is bone-shivering; they are stunning and iconic; they are important for the ecosystem balance. Note that while the jaguar may be phisically similar to the African leopard, the jaguar is faster and stronger, and a better swimmer.
Note that this is about the association between height and income. It is possible that a confuser variable or set of variables is/are influencing both income and height, thus producing the observed correlation between income and height. In this case, the association would not imply causation. But even if this is just association and not causation, its a significant fact, because then there is some unkown set of factors making taller individuals having higher probabilities of earn more.
Some Bolsonarists in Brazil believe in funny things about Brazilian universities, like students having sex everywhere, people smooking so much weed that there is green smoke in the air (no kidding, a famous Bolsonarist really said there is green smoke in Brazilian universities), students forcing others to use drugs etc. I believe the hidden sources of the Bolsonarist propaganda tried or are trying to reduce the credibility of universities in Brazil, probably because they see the universities as a threat to the far-right and liberal ideologies (they believe Brazilian universities are full of communists (it's true that there is some amount of communists in the public universities in Brazil, but they are mostly concentrated in a few courses, while there is almost none of them in most courses primarily unrelated to politics)).

China is already first in GDP PPP, which is arguably better than nominal GDP as a measure of living standards and economy size.
Perplexity summary: The article from Bloomberg[1] reports that Huawei's latest smartphone, the Mate 60 Pro, is powered by a new Kirin 9000s chip that was fabricated in China by Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corp (SMIC). This chip is the first to utilize SMIC's most advanced 7nm technology, which suggests that the Chinese government is making some headway in attempts to build a domestic chip ecosystem. The article also notes that Huawei is reportedly developing its own Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and power management chips. Other sources, such as Swarajya[2], ThinkChina[3], TechHQ[4], and The Verge[5], speculate on how Huawei was able to develop its own chips despite US sanctions. Some sources suggest that Huawei may have used its inventory from 2020, while others speculate that the chips were manufactured by SMIC or even Huawei itself. Chinese benchmarking website AnTuTu has identified the Mate 60 Pro's CPU as the HiSilicon-designed Kirin 9000s, which supports 5G[6]. Overall, the article and other sources suggest that Huawei's use of domestically produced chips in the Mate 60 Pro is a significant development in China's efforts to build a domestic chip ecosystem and circumvent US sanctions.
That's in part because of all the anti-China propaganda on big media and youtube. In youtube, anti-China content, specially content from big media (BBC, sky news and the likes) and CIA-backed content, is recommended to much more users than pro-China content. Just look at the number of views of anti-China videos vs neutral or pro-China channels. Anti-China videos easily get millons of views, while the best of the best pro-China videos only reach tens or hundreads of thousands of views (one or another may reach millions by using a super catch thumbnail and title). The pro-China videos are mostly recommended to people that already watches pro-China videos, while anti-China videos get recommended for everyone on youtube. The result is that a huge amount of youtube users believe anti-China crap.
It's so toxic how they always talk about efforts to keep America the best this or the best that. They talk as if for them the priority is to do everything (even moraly wrong things) to make America be the best at everything, being human progress only a byproduct of this competition. They also talk as if America be the best at everything is necessary for the world to be "right"; as if this is something inherently good.
Not-so-fun fact: Rick Sanchez was possibly created with the same name as the news anchor Rick Sanchez (from CNN and RT) deliberately to hide him in the internet. Rick Sanchez himself made a video about this. He found a video made by an RM creator before RM creation in which there is a news transmission with an anchor called Rick Sanchez, showing that the creators of RM knew who him was before creating RM.

Artisanal burgers are much tastier than McDonald's. In fact, it's not hard for a real burger to be tastier than a McDonald's one, at least in my country (I'm not sure if McDonald's quality is the same in all countries). Here, McDonald's isn't very good, and even so it's quite expensive. Even the most affordable option on the menu is pricey, and it barely has anything inside. Not to mention that these fast food burgers are tiny.
Hambúrgueres artesanais são muito mais gostosos que McDonald's. Na verdade não é difícil um hambúrguer de verdade ser mais gostoso que um McDonald's, pelo menos no meu país (não tenho certeza se a qualidade do McDonald's é a mesma em todos os países). Aqui McDonald's não é muito bom e ainda é bem caro; a opção mais acessível do menu já é cara, e não têm quase nada dentro. Sem falar que esses hambúrgueres de fast food são bem pequenos.
Yep. I made the pic and the fic just for fun. She is most definitely a puppet. She was also silent about the Ohio train derailment disaster (right?). Besides, there is the theory that the green agenda pushed by the USA and its vassals does not aim to mitigate climate change, but instead aims to difficult the industrial growth of big developing countries like India and Brazil.
Their use of nominal GDP while ignoring GDP PPP reminds me of the Tokyo olympics. While China had more gold medals than USA, American news were using the total medal count to sort countries, instead of sorting them by gold medal count. At the final day of the olympics USA surpassed China in gold medals (39 vs 38), and thus the American news returned back to the traditional gold medal count for sorting the countries.
The video starts with a message that includes a warning against flat-earthers using the material in their videos. This warning is included because questioning the moon landing is associated with believing that Earth is flat, inducing people into believing that questioning the moon landings is more absurd than it really is. A theory I have is that, if there really was something staged about Apollo missions, American gov created or impulsionated the flat Earth movement using something like astroturfing, and pulled strings to build an association between questioning moon landing and believing that Earth is flat. In practice, they would combine two astroturfing agents: the skeptical, science-backed and educated agents arguing that there is no question about the moon landing and everything you say otherwise is easily debunked, and uneducated agents saying in child-like language that the moon landing was faked, also saying that Earth is flat while wearing a tinfoil hat. There are real people that really believes the Earth is flat; my theory is not saying they are all astroturfing agents. But it's just a theory that I not necessarily believe in; I see how such association could emerge naturally, as flat-earthers often deny there is space.
