I mean. A 9.0 quake is 100 million times stronger in amplitude than a 1.0 tremor. 10.0 is 1 billion times stronger

So, if you wanted a linear scale to cover the same range of amplitude as the log. scale, you'd either need it to go from 0 to 1,000,000,000 ...

... or, if you really wanted it to be a linear scale going to 100, you'd have to be OK with this Turkish quake registering a 0.6 on your scale.

A (possible) ranking issue for one of the Porsche cars was uncovered during the creation of this visual. This visual is shown with the correction (sorry, Corvette!). If you're interested, you can see more information about the issue, and how I made this visual by watching this video: https://youtu.be/t4LbjlYuMAs

To make this visual, I looked at the source page and then copied the html table containing race results into Notepad++. I saved it as an html file and then imported it into Microsoft Access, added some fields for custom calculations, and then coded the new fields in VBA. The time format provided did not translate nicely so I parsed it and converted the times to decimal format so they could be more easily compared. The table was imported into Power BI. I retained the original time format and show it in the "hover over" tooltips in the visualization, along with each car's driver. You can see this demonstrated in the YouTube video linked above.

This started off as, "this will just be a simple ranking bar chart exercise".. lol!

So, I am wondering, where is BMW? I expected to see one of the M cars in the top 30.

The Polish version was not dubbed at all, neither the opening, nor the episodes. We had a lector, which means there was a lady speaking in Polish while the characters spoke in Japanese, and both soundtracks were audible. I understand that this sounds weird for someone who is not used to it, but when you hear this since you were a child, your brain at some point does this one trick, and you starts to feel as if you understand the original language.

PgYes, it is better to be fat than to starve, but nobody is starving because Midwest corn is made into ethanol. People are hungry because of distribution problems.

Midwest corn also doesn't change the cost of healthy food anywhere.

That is a much more nuanced response then just "we are wasting food". The world is not short on food. It might be short on sustainably produced food. It might be short on food in the places it is most needed. but it is not short on food.

Ethanol, as a fuel, is not carbon negative. Corn based ethanol is not even particularly better than say natural gas given the fertilizer input.

I unfortunately couldn't find enough data on non-EU countries for a world map to be interesting. However, I would still like to mention the Thai one. It's Moonlight Densetsu, but reimagined.

I welcome input on the countries for which I have no data.

EDIT: People who have watched the French version, please answer this question. In the final fight against Queen Beryl, Moonlight Densetsu was played in the original, and it was thematically perfect and a great mood setter. I need to know, did your dub have the Bernard Minet version during this scene? If yes, I really need to find a clip of that.
