Putting all the various kinds of air force/air corps of the US aside - You know the military ranking listing is absolute sh1t when they ranked the Indian Air Force above the PLAAF, i.e. the Chinese Air Force - In 2024.

Honestly, this and the record US oil production is probably good for China. It's in China's interest for US to remain/become Zeihan's wet-dream of soybean / oil / gas superpowa and left behind in the green energy / tech race.
US will become more competitive if it concentrate on its strengths in oil/gas/aviation/farming and everything related to it. US can still do the software, research and high end components but leave the rest to Mexico in green energy. I think Mexico can built millions of EVs for export if spending is moved in that direction.

Even better is that there is an entry for
People's Liberation Army Navy Air Force
and
People's Liberation Navy Air Force
with the exact same inventory, but somehow the second one is ranked lower

They don’t just have the same inventory. They are literally the same. Go copy the URL of rank 15 and rank 25 because it the same URL for both. Rank 25 does not exist.

If you take a look at the stylesheet, it is using "IBM Plex Sans Thai Looped" from Google's server for the fonts. That's a pretty unusual font for a website to use. A quick look at the most popular users of this font:

Although it claims to be not AI, seems to be like a network of 100 sites with all the same design and slightly different content

Africa and India are indeed quite close (neck to neck even), in most national developmental metrics India is way closer in development to Africa, than to China.

(Many countries in Africa are more developed than India, but there are also richer provinces in India).

Anyway, both the African continent and the Indian sub-continent have close population sizes and are way more fitting for comparison than China and India.

The biggest difference between the two is geography, and due to that India managed to emerge as a single nation, whereas Africa has many different nations.

True. There are countries in Africa I'd rather live in than India like Botswana, Cape Verde, Seychelles, etc.

I'd also choose Africa in a heartbeat. Africa is simply gorgeous and unlike India, Africa is sparsely populated. The countries of Africa have so much potential, and you guys have so much to look forward to and be proud of as your continent rises. Africa, like every other place in the world including China, has many problems but I know many brilliant people from Africa and I'm confident that they and people like you will overcome them.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I know many people from Africa and India and based on my interactions with these people, I genuinely believe that Africa will have a brighter future than India. There are many students from Nigeria and Ghana at my university, and their work ethic reminds me so much of the Chinese work ethic.

It's called flip the switch off.

I think the British do this on purpose trying to get attention establishing themselves being "the first". "She" suffered the trauma as if she was actually raped. You should see how they're talking about this on TV like they're walking on eggshells having to be careful and not traumatized the victim further by daring to question this. They have to talk like it really happened to a real person.

Has anyone experienced the Metaverse? Can you actually hold down a virtual person? The last I heard and also criticism was characters in the Metaverse didn't have a lower half. They were all floating torsos with heads and arms. If they programmed it where you can hold down a virtual being, where's the virtual .357? If the Metaverse is like this, I can see how it can be easily a Grand Theft Auto game.
Can’t wait until the paragon of Human Rights and law and order start indicting players of space invaders for planetary genocide.
