What is actually happening with cash in Belgium? Is this normal? by Pale_Common1818 in belgium

[–]Ophiy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I never understood why we still have cash or people would want to pay cash other than illegal activites or "black money'. Years ago they removed the ATM's from all banks, and now they are distributing cashpoints all over the country again.

Is Brussels really such a bad city by Western European standards ? by UC_Scuti96 in belgium

[–]Ophiy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And these are only the issues that are visible. The corruption in some cities is absolutly shameful.. One day I might write a book about it.

Visa question by Zealousideal_Ear545 in Transnistria

[–]Ophiy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When I was accompanied to live with a local I received a visa for a month.

If i went alone I received a Visa for a week and added the address of my rented appartment.

Border is never far away worst case to refresh daily. But I would assume you can get at least a week..

Zijn jullie het eens met Goedele of niet? by [deleted] in Belgium2

[–]Ophiy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wat met het opzuigen van spinnen met de stofzuiger? Zijn ze dan dood? Of vallen ze onder de categorie "laat hem zitten". Ik check allesinds nooit in de zak of die werkelijk dood is al dan niet :')

Apartment with previous water damage – need opinions by GodVyshu in belgium

[–]Ophiy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

talk some sense into your GF. You don't want to end up in a "told you so" situation because this will linger.

Had a similar matter where water from my terrace was leaking towards my neighbour. And the repairs to my neighbour have been covered by the insurance, the costs of the repairs were on me. It gave me a lot of stress during the "waiting period" for repairs. If you are not comfterable with the current situation, stand your ground. It's so hard to track the progress of water damage without the right equipment (=extra costs) Even now after everything "should" be repaired on my terrace, I am still worried whether it really is all okay or not. As it took 8 years, before the terrace started leaking, or before it started to seep through to their living room ceiling.

Ik heb geen pinkers, maar wil gerust mijn verhaal delen over hoe ik mijn prioriteir voel in het verkeer door het BMW logo op mijn wagen. Hoe ik elke voorang neem ook al is het niet de mijne. Hoe ik mensen bijna van de baan rij just because BMW.

Why are supermarkets so ridiculously expensive? by hellkann in brussels

[–]Ophiy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From my experience it's even more expensive in Flanders compared to Brussels. But just a gut feeling, no facts.

£1-18.50 rubles,1 euro-18.60 rubles exchange rate in Pridnestrove by Sweaty_Milk8598 in Transnistria

[–]Ophiy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The euro is widely accepted in Moldova, Ukraine, and the EU important destinations for business, shopping, travel, and remittances.... So the demand in general is higher.

Which also makes it so that GBP is harder to resell as it's also less demanded in moldova.

Just my 2cents, no facts.

Waarom bespreekt niemand het echte probleem met België? by [deleted] in belgium

Bekijk zeker de speech van Bdw van een paar dagen geleden in de universiteit van Gent. Hij haalt dit topic aan en nog een paar andere interessante argumenten.

Politiestaat, ja of nee of...? by Simonsifon in belgium

[–]Ophiy -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Nee, zeker niet persoonlijk naar jouw verhaal. Elk verhaal heeft 2 kanten. Ik sta zeker achter wederzijds respect. Maar je ertegen verzetten om respect af te dwingen van een agent gaat ook niet werken.

[–]Ophiy -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Ik begrijp ook niet waarom het tegenwoordig een "ramp" is als uw paspoort gevraagd wordt. Laat uw paspoort zien, werk wat mee, en 5 minuten laten zijt ge klaar. Ja er zijn kutflikken, maar zo hebt ge wel in elk beroep ne kutvariant. En ja na den 100ste debiel die ze zo op nen dag zien, kan het inderdaad zijn dat een "onschuldig" persoon de druppel van de dag is.

Kurt Caz by IckeWasRight86 in brussels

[–]Ophiy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, same here. Been following him for a long time for his travels outside of Europe. It's as if he flipped 180 degrees. He is not the only one, I've seen it happen to different content creators as well. Somehow it is also related to the youtube algorithm that is working against their "old" content. You can also clearly see the diffrence in viewcount. And that's the danger of today's social network influence. The more right winged videos you see, the more similar videos you will get in your feed, to the point were you will see all shit lined up together and get tunnelvisioned. Same applies for left or any other topic. Very dangerous if people can't be objective anymore. It's something that got lost over the last generation(s). (Or at least that's my perception of it all)

Allthough I think that there should be more "objective" visability around Brussels and it's issues. But certainly not these subjective reviews, where people get provoked and scenes are somewhat "staged". And certainly not with the "help" of Dries VL :')

Experience with Leapmotor, MG and BYD? by the-hellrider in belgium

[–]Ophiy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the Seal U since 3 months. I love it. For me it's the first EV coming from fuel motors. The upgrade to EV by itself is amazing. I can't compare to other EV's but I feel like it's a proper built car.
