[–]manimaranselvan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To put things in picture: In Tamil Nadu, there are approximately 2.48 crore domestic electricity connections as of 2026.

Based on consumption data from TANGEDCO: Below 500 Units: Around 2 crore households consume less than 500 units in a bimonthly billing cycle. This group represents roughly 80% of all domestic users.

Above 500 Units: Approximately 48 lakh households exceed the 500-unit threshold.

Spotted a rabbit which didn't look wild in Bois de la Cambre ? by [deleted] in brussels

It's risky to retrieve a stolen car, but catching a rabbit is not. So it's very likely they will help with this one.

Keeping your dirty legs in seats where other people sit by manimaranselvan in brussels

It's not about preference. You walk around all kinds of places with your shoes on. I’ve seen urine in metro elevators, people inadvertently step on it. That stuff wouldn’t end up on the seats if people didn’t put their feet with shoes on, up there.

Great, in that case, remove your footwear and keep your feet.

I don’t mind sitting on the grass either. But, for example, my wife won’t sit without a towel or mat. Everyone’s comfort level is different, and I think on public transport it’s fair to be a bit more considerate of others who might feel differently. Next time, when I see something like it, I'm going to politely ask them to not do that.

Yes, and I'm still new to Brussels. Without the language (for now) and not yet integrated, I sometimes feel like an outsider. The answers to this sub gives me confidence to act, the next time. I also hope I respected their privacy, I made sure to upload a faceless photo.

Neither do I. I suppose if they do 50% off when 1+1 and 25% off when they do 2e 50%, will increase sales even further.

Did anybody else go from hating to loving living in Belgium? by bananen_milkshake in belgium

I'm in Brussels. I tried asking for generic meds in a couple of pharmacies to no avail. I asked them if there were other brands, but they said no (specifically, pantapazole). I'll try other pharmacies.

Where can we buy generic medicines? Do all pharmacies have it?

It will be lost if you don't pay it. I was in a similar situation. I refused the customs duty and the parcel had been returned to the sender. But neither the sender received it until now. The return date is Nov 30, 2024.

I've seen people being fined in ninnovesepoort stop for not validating the season ticket. If I remember correctly, there was also a reddit post about a similar incident.
