Is a reentry permit a document that can be obtained by filing the I-131 form, or how can one obtain such a permit?

Could you spell out what "2 years at a stretch and generally up to 5 total without issue" means for non-native speakers?

How long can a green card holder stay outside of the US without loosing the green card? What roles do forms I-131 and N-470 play? Many thanks!

I agree, this is super cool but it's not 100% peer to peer as WebRTC requires a central server to establish the connection as far as I know.

I pay all salaries in Bitcoin. Way faster, cheaper, easier than fiat.

1) Can you point to negative implications of nuclear waste? Anyone that got hurt or harmed in Germany for example?

2) If it's too expensive it will not happen, no need for the government to step in.

3) Have a look at the link, some renewables like Biomass emit a lot of C02, all energy sources are trade offs

What can users do to get certainty over which one is the correct fork? In POW you can check the POW. Is there a trustless solution for this in POS? Or is the only solution essentially to ask around and hope that people aren't lying to you?

> Want to guess where most fuel rods came from? (spoiler: Russia)

Can you back that up? To me it looks like only 5% of uranium is in Russia (https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/uranium-p...)

> They wouldn't have saved much, if any, gas burning

Compare to coal (that seems to be the tradeoff in Germany) nuclear energy kills 820x more people per produced energy unit. 820x the number of human lives lost.

C02 emissions are about 250x higher https://ourworldindata.org/safest-sources-of-energy#:~:text=....

I wasn't summarizing the article, I was providing a source for my statement.

It's irrational that Germany is shutting down secure and climate friendly power plants while Europe is in the midst of an energy crises and a war.

The reason for the irrationality is that Germans (I'm one) do not want to admit that they've been wrong about nuclear energy for decades.
