With the return of democracy, the Supreme Court was overbuilt (overpowered?) specially to counter abuses from the Presidency. It has it's own host of problems, but so far has kept us from going the same part as the US.

@Wahots
I wish it was more acceptable (except snuggling, that's a bit much too intimate)

Once, the answer to a problem that was stumping me came while driving in the middle of nowhere at 01:00am back from a weekend trip.

Well, you chose the boring bees. The Meliponini stingless bees have much cooler names.

I think for the extreme cases when it becomes hemorrhagic.

Thankfully, it's uncommon. But it's more likely if one has gotten it before.

@Toes
Main symptoms are joint pain, pain behind the eyes, weakness (I felt couldn't hold myself up out of bed for more than 15min), and more dangerously a large drop in the number of blood platelets (mine got to half the healthy expected minimum), for some people it becomes hemorrhagic.

I got dengue this year.

A week of pain and extreme weakness.

Don't recommend.

The only good thing about the far-right is that it's always eventually autophagic.

My understanding as a layperson: probably stuff is probably around here somewhere, probably.

It looked suspiciously biased. I'm going to research more.

I've found this reference that seems good:

https://www.world-nuclear.org/information-library/economic-aspects/economics-of-nuclear-power

There's certainly more, but I'm not nuclear powered and don't have the mental energy for online debate 😁

@IchNichtenLichten
It might have a higher initial upfront cost, but the return on investment over a plant's whole lifetime makes it one of the cheapest. And even then, they don't take long to break even.

Not OP, but why not love it? It's one of the cleanest, greenest, safest, and efficient power sources we have.

@Sterile_Technique
Not catholic, so I don't know their official position, but as I understand, in extreme circumstances any liquid will do.
Part of it involves the idea of "washing", or "being washed", so solid water or water in solids would not count. And also the idea of purification, but many use dirty river water.
