According to Wikipedia, the Chicago metropolitan area has a population of about 10 million people, far less than Poland's 38 million, which makes your claim completely impossible from the start. In fact, according to other articles, it seems that there are about 185 000 people of Polish descent living in Chicago (less than half a percent of the population of Poland), and a bit less than 10 million in the entire US (which is significant compared to the population of Poland, but still "only" about a quarter). And this article claims that there are "roughly 20 000 000 people of Polish ancestry living outside Poland" [in total], which is still less than the population of Poland.

Germany for example adds up to 101% though, that would be impossible if they had truncated. Most likely they simply did round to full percent.

A compact car is already perfectly capable of towing a trailer, no pickup truck needed. Just ask the Dutch.

Klaus Martin Schwab (German: [klaʊs ˈmaʁtiːn ʃvaːp]; born 30 March 1938) is a German engineer, economist, and founder of the World Economic Forum (WEF). [...] Schwab was professor of business policy at the University of Geneva from 1972 to 2003 [...] While Schwab declared that excessively high management salaries were "no longer socially acceptable",[30] his own annual salary of about one million Swiss francs (a little more than $1 million USD) has been repeatedly questioned by the media.

Now, you might think that sounds more like a typical neo-liberal than anything, but don't be fooled. Luckily we got the guy with the racist meme username above to enlighten us that this guy is really the second coming of Karl Marx. ^/s^

Mali, not Malaysia, which has the .my suffix.

To be fair, those forklifts can be quite dangerous. Just ask Klaus.

You're not wrong about the second half of your sentence, but it is quite common, unfortunately. Besides, I think the cow in the picture is meant to be representative for the entire meat industry, not just beef (other meats are still terrible for the climate, of course, just not as bad as beef).

Stargate, Dune (1984), and the Riddick films

I like those too, in particular Dune and the Chronicles of Riddick, but they all have audience scores above 60% (and Stargate and Dune are from the last millennium if we're sticking to that requirement).

Reign of Fire only has a 42% (Critics), 49% (Audience) rating on RT, but I enjoyed it quite a bit. The visuals and sets create a nice moody post-apocalyptic vibe, and the actors deliver decent performances imo.

It's standard markdown afaik. Two new lines creates a new paragraphs, two spaces and one new line creates just a new line.
