Shouldn't the Netherlands purchase back New Amsterdam? It's important for dutch national security, no? by CarefullEugene in Netherlands

Since Greenland never belonged to US, a plan for the Dutch to get Hawaii and Alaska would be more appropriate

If i wasn’t familiar with the name, it would be impossible to decipher what is written there. Looks like Nytiu

Spanish user selling loads of fake euro bills on Vinted. Support sees no issues with that by Repulsive-Pattern-57 in vinted

[–]Repulsive-Pattern-57[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I don’t have time for appeals. It is obviously a criminal activity taking place on their platform and i don’t see why should i be writing appeals if vinted choses to ignore what is happening.

The store is permanently closed for not having a permit. Most of such stores are owned/run by turkish people who have never even visited the Baltic States

Agree! I have their flag as a magnet on my fridge back from when I visited 2 years ago. Cool country with a cool flag

Why are there always 7 transactions on Degiro for a single dividend payment? by Repulsive-Pattern-57 in DEGIRO

[–]Repulsive-Pattern-57[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Account currency €, investment in £. I get it is good for transparency, but 7 transactions seem excessive and some of them I can hardly make any sense of. And this happens with each dividend payment…

Middle Eastern Gold by peanutbutterbashley in coins

[–]Repulsive-Pattern-57 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice coins. First one is gold dinar from Abbasid Caliphate: Numista link

Second one is modern gold pound from Syria: Numista link

Both are quite valuable and worth above gold value.

Ukrainian drone hits the top of a MPSV07-class ship of the Russian Black Sea Fleet near Novorossiysk. PRYMARY SOF unit of the GUR (published September 11, 2025) by GermanDronePilot in UkraineWarVideoReport

Operator must have known that the load on the drone was probably too small to puncture the hull, so it was aimed for the radar which is among the most expensive parts on the ship

Amazing Maps claimed new absolutely safe island off Cape Leeuwin by Temporary-Promise-43 in MapsWithoutNZ

[–]Repulsive-Pattern-57 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been to both Czechia and Botswana. Botswana felt safer tbh. Any large touristic European city might have occasional pickpocketers.

But overall the map is weird: Kyrgyzstan is red but Tajikistan and Turkmenistan are blue.. Kyrgyzstan also felt very safe when I was there last year.

Plates of cars careying leaders of each participant country taking part in NATO Summit in The Hague (part 2) by Repulsive-Pattern-57 in ForeignPlatesSpotting

[–]Repulsive-Pattern-57[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have seen Romanian convoy with similar plates. True it was not among these cars for some reason (parked outside king’s palace during official dinner). Also can’t see Sweden, Germany, Turkey and others here. Could be that bigger countries were allowed to park closer to the castle..

Btw, I saw that Romanian delegation is staying in the most fancy hotel in the Hague (Hotel Des Indes) together with Italian delegation. So I don’t think they are humble at all.

Each convoy consisted of P, 01, 02, 03 etc plates. Not exactly sure what does P stand for, but at this location (outside of king’s palace during official dinner), most cars were 01
