Here in Amsterdam heating and water for a small appartement would come to perhaps €200 per mnth. I'm guessing that 107k rubles (nearly €1200) is just the end of year adjustment, so it looks like Russians might be paying more for these services than the Dutch despite us keeping our gas in the ground!

<cludge we should avoid doing!).

Now I think they are going to choose countries based on how easy they will be and put off the character set change until they run out of those!

Oh well, at least it's not ASCII-7!

<do, but they already added 2 entities that only had minor problems (with export invoices in currencies like the Indian Rupee, they asked us to code a cludge for that so the symbols were not stored in the DB but were in the PDF file 🤣, actually my idea but I proposed it as an example of the sort of>

I work for a US company that still uses a single byte character set (iso-8859-1) in their NA ERP system which they now want to rollout for all subsidiaries world wide.

Yeah, I know 😕

I have felt for a long time that the most important change I want to see in the EU is an expulsion procedure. If I had my way it would be in the hands of the judiciary, not the politicians.

Allowing Hungary to stay in NATO and the EU is a big mistake. If the idea is to bring them around to democracy it's not working. The time to expel them from both organisations is long overdue. If they vote Orban out they can reapply but they should not be allowed in without an independent judiciary.

1 killed, 2 injured in Russian strikes on residential building, gas pipeline in Odesa Russian forces carried out a series of attacks overnight on Feb. 8-9, targeting various cities with reported missile and drone attacks.

<is it possible for you to square your support for this demonic, genocidal, oligarch with being a "socialist"?!

<demands, with menaces by his FSB, that 50% belongs to him personally making Vladimir Putler the most prolific thief in the history of the world.

Then there is his genocidal war against Ukraine. The fact that the FSB built torture chambers specially designed for the torture of children.

How>

I will *never* understand left wingers who support Putler! Russia is the *most* unequal country in the world with an estimated 70% of its wealth owned by the 1% in 2021. Between 2010 and 2021 about $3TN disappeared from its economy and according to business owners who fled the country, Putler>

Not just a war crime, this is pure insanity!

Orban is an enemy of Hungary, he is an enemy the EU, he is an enemy of Justice, he is an enemy of Democracy, he is an enemy of Freedom!

Orban is my enemy!

How about you?

Or "Most corrupt President ever"? In the last year just the documented bribes to him and his family add up to $1.9B.

Prior to Trump the record was held by the Warren Harding administration who stole $2.8B in today's money but that was for the administration, Harding may not have been involved?

Please notice the flag of Sweden, because the regime lashed out at Sweden today. Protesters in Georgia always display flags of partner countries, and especially when they feature prominently in latest events / are targeted by the regime.

LOL! I imagine this is a marketing label, like the "vegan cheese" a friend of mine contributed to lunch once.

One of the toughest commanders I know, and Defender of Mariupol, finally came home. Marine - eskender kudusov who remained faithful to his oath in Crimea received 29 years in a sham trial while being held in captivity.

Incredibly happy for his return

Semper Fi 🇺🇦

I'm talking about it. In particular I'm drawing attention to the fact that Steve Witkoff, the man Trump has basically put in charge of trying to give Ukraine to Putin, apparently organised this corrupt deal and was paid 31 million US$ for having done so. In any normal world he would be sacked!

This is what disheartens me a lot in the #NAFO community, people who say they will match and they don’t. I fronted that money out of my own pocket and suffered financially because of it.

This person could tweet, but just kept stringing me along and as usually they blame me.
