Can some of you commie fags from Europe share what life was/is like living in these blocks?
>>519679900
>>519679900I've lived in one my entire life up to last winter when I moved into a new apartment building:>commieblocks may be unaesthetic for some people but they are made to last and to not require that much maintenance>despite the thin walls meme, I had no idea how good I had it until I moved into a modern, capitalism-driven apartment building - the walls are literally paper-thin, I can hear both sides of a phone conversation coming from my neighbours>my building is much smaller (so you can sell more and make more money)>commieblocks have central heating, it works 99% of the time
>>519680315more or less this
>>519679900fell for the 1pbtid with an effortpost, no one to blame but myself. OP sucks cocks in hell
>>519679900>nobody does maintenance due to low trust society, resulting in lots of rats, cockroachs and fleas>the cellar is innundated and innundates after rainfall due to the bad design>>519680315>despite the thin walls memethe meme is bs, noise travels best through dense material regardless of the thicknessthe deciding factor is really the distance between people>even today the payment for water and heating is actually shared by all the people in the building which leads to many people paying more than they use due to others abusing the system, for example, by washign their cars in front of the building with a house out of the window on the first floor>this is a low-trust society so "hot water" or "electricity" is like playing the roulette and can go off at any time, most people that live in these actually install their own boiler as a backup system to make sure they can take a hot shower because the utilities are unreliableI'd wager that>these buildings are great for "survival", in case there is a war, these are absolutely great at harboring lots of people in the tinyest of space and with redundant protectionbut, you will never "live" in these, as opposed to your own house and property
>>519679900also, nb I live in a "grandfathered house" in the rual area but very very many areas, like the one where my grandmother lives in cities look pretty much like picrelmost times in public shots nobody takes photographs of stuff like this so you never actually see it like thatyou only get to see your picrel
>>519679900I’ve been to Moscow and spent a night in one. They are actually very cozy
>>519683301And incredibly warm
>>519683084>you will never "live" in thesethis also depends on many factors - for example, my block was build for railway employees, every apartment had a family with 2 children around the same age so I had a very happy childhood despite not living in my own house on my property. My grandma had that in the neighbourhood next to us and it wasn't that different
>>519680315yeah this, i lived in a commie block in years 1980-2000 and honestly i wont bitch about it.t. oldfag
>>519680315Can you close heating vents if its too hot or is it whatever they set the temperature at for the heater?
>>519679900Absolutely comfy tier.The 10 story ones with trash chutes sucked, but the 4-5 story ones were the bomb and extremely comfortable. Surrounded by parks, shops, preschools, schools, medical clinic and a swimming pool or gym. Very easy access, well heated and relaxing with greenery all around. They are very sought after today because modern developments lack any amenities and are just for profit. My parents foolishly moved to an old house and we are cursed with constant maintenance, repair and high heating bills, the moment they will pass away I am selling this shit and buying a small studio.
>>519683084It depends on management and country, the commie blocks in Russia are very harsh compare compared to the ones in Poland.
>>519680315>but they are made to last this isnt my experience, the commieblocks in the east are the most delapitated buildings when comparing pre communism and post communism
>>519683473it's entirely up to you, individually for every room.
>>519683382correct, but you are a very different commrade than the Romanian commradethese buildings are actually designed conceptually by a French architectthey however appealed to Romania because Ceausescu wanted to increase the population of Romania in order to increase state tax revenue and pay off the debt of the countrythey were indeed advertised as "houses for everyone" even though you had to sit in a queue to obtain one, but in reality it was really a very convenient way of stuffing as many tax payers in the smallest amount of place possible and working themIIRC Bulgaria had a different communism, you were not that insane and actually had free market products and TV shows whereas the commies here went raving mad with taxation and revenueRomania has a very apt 50cent army that currates the Internet of things that put Romania in a bad light, even today and that is really only possible by keeping the population dumb, poor and procreating
>>519679900I lived in one from birth until I bought a new apartment at 27.>in the 90s and early 2000s, before the blocks got insulated and ACs became common, it could get sweltering hot in the summer and freezing in the winter>you could hear neighbors through the walls. the guy above yelled at his wife and hammered away for hours. it's still not great in the new buildings but better.>you had a garbage chute at every floor so no need to take the trash downstairs like in the new buildings. on the other hand, guaranteed roaches. I've never had roaches in the 4 years I've lived in the new apartment.>water and natural gas were managed by the HOA. you couldn't just decide not to heat your apartment. newer apartments have central heating and you sign your own gas contract.>parking spots were few and managed by the city, new blocks usually have private underground parking
>>519683612we're talking about longevity, not maintenance>>519683661>free market products and TV showsit's more likely that you're thinking of yugoslavia, I don't think our flavours of commie were that different
>>519679900tolerable because we had a top floor apartmentso no neighbors stomping above also I was a kid and had no idea how shitty it was beacuse I knew nothing else until we moved out into a suburban housethen I understood pic related
>>519683936I was born in 1980 and remember communism,I know DDR was seen as the richest, Bulgaria and Romania were poorest. A Bulgarian customs border guard stole my chocolate when I was a child xD SeriouslyYugoslavia was always a bit richer and seen a more liberal and fun until the civil war happened.
>>519683513> we are cursed with constant maintenanceciota w rurkach nie umie dopompować hydroforu XD
>>519679900Commieblock > American cardboard house.
>>519683936>I don't think our flavours of commie were that differentthey were so different that if you meet an old timer Romanian and try to talk to them in Bulgarian, there are chances that they understand what you say even if the languages are completely differentthis is because Ceausescu ran a madhouse and slaughterhouse while Bulgarian communism was relaxed>you had free-trade products on the market, stuff like Coca-Cola, etc>there was no "scarcity" in the later stages because you were not in a quest to pay off country debt>Romania had a more "ethical" view of communism such that "fancy shows" with partial nudity were not allowed and the TV schedule was strictly regulated by the party>even the way that communism went away was different, the Romanian one was a bloodbath with ripples of followup bloodbaths (mineriad) for the same reason, while Bulgarian communism was disbanded by the politicians shrugging and moving to a different system with nothing much elsemost Romanians during communism had an extra antenna on their balcony pointed at Bulgaria to receive the shows, lol because Romanian TV were plagued with 6 hour long discourses by Ceausescuthanks for the solidarity, and I don't mean that sarcastically, but Bulgarian communism was a holiday compared to the Romanian ones, ask some of the old timers, they might know

Commie block apartment in the building I lived in l, it now costs 110,000 Euro https://legnica.nieruchomosci-online.pl/mieszkanie,z-kuchnia-z-oknem/26152430.html
>>519683084>nobody does maintenance due to low trust society, resulting in lots of rats, cockroachs and fleasThat's cruel. In Russia, both state and private contractors are responsible for maintaining such buildings (it is illegal not to maintain a building, so someone always takes care of it), and for rats and cockroaches, as well as for the presence of harmful substances in the water that exceed safety standards. Criminal cases are brought and those responsible are sent to prison. A dirty yard or unemptied trash cans mean the end of a housing and utilities manager's career. Graffiti on buildings is unacceptable in Russia and can cause legal problems for both the artist and the maintenance company.
>>519684407
>>519679900Imagine the smell
depends. if its modernised or even betterm new construction with good heating/insulation etc plus a neat park around then yeh, it can be comfy. I've been to some eastern euro countries and i've seen some modern complexes that had entire parks inside with ducks/swans, private security etc. Plus other modern complexes that were maximum 4 floors all with parks, gated, security etc. It's a given these are bredy expensive but far better than the stalinkas or some other shit built in 1970s.
>>519684449>Imagine the smell
>>519684449>>519684449This one was built in 1985
>>519684524
>>519679900comfyblocks
>>519684434oh the law stands pretty clear in Romania as well, and you are right, officially, yeah, there are checks that are obligatory by law but due to corruption and because the government is busy doing world poltiics, these are not taken too seriously...you can like "buy" a driving license many times just by tipping off the right people, even if legally speaking you'd have to go through the whole processwe've had a lot of ferral drivers around here and most of them with early indicators such as being still in the probation period that caused accidents and in most cases they obtained their license through bribes and covered it upof course nobody wants to assume responsibilitythese days, it's easier, just blame Soros and the EU, lol
>>5196845241985 - the golden age of commie blocks. These are the most technically advanced and cheapest buildings to produce. From an advanced fire extinguishing system (fire detectors for Soviet firefighters, a fire hydrant with water, massive smoke extractor, just open the door to the apartment, and the extractor in the common hallway will suck out all the smoke) and parking spaces for baby strollers to built-in TV and radio systems and super-efficient and tight integration into central heating (which strikes fear into Americans as if it were alien technology). Even modern American “House Projects” (American state commieblocks) fall far short of the level of Soviet comfort.
>>519684107well DDR was the showcase, all resources were concentrated in making them look as good as possible. Yugoslavia was something else entirely as they weren't part of the Eastern bloc>>519684228I hadn't heard that side, no boomers have told me about Romanian life back then
>>519684281zapytaj ojca jak to się robi bo potem będziesz do byle gówna wzywał hydraulika
>>519679900Imagine this everyday but surrounded by slavniggers
>>519679900>Can some of you commie fagsYou're the commie fags. You collaborated with commies, we suffered for it.
I am living in a commieblock built in the early 70s from the mid 00s to now still.It's not horrible,but it's not great too,just average.Good thing is it got renovated around 2018 and it got some green paint on the block instead of the usual grey shit and the windows got replaced from wooden frames to pvc
>>519684894https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S2G79OFEsXkby decree 770 of Ceausescu, abortion was completely banned in Romania compared to Bulgaria where it was generally allowed with some restrictionsit was part of the same glee and simple reasoning that "more people means increased revenue which means more power!" but that implication turned sour when they found out that obviously "unwanted babies" are "unwanted" and end up abandonedthis lead to a massive surprlus of "children" most of them rotting away in orphanages that got abused in various ways, something that Romanian communism is actually infamous forI'm sure the real - real story is more glib than that, clearly a bunch of them perished in orphanages due to the poor conditions and scarce resources such as nourismnet but I dare not think what they did with the rest that didn't even fit in an orphanage due to the orphanages being overcrowded...besides, with commnism gone, Romania's population voided like a baloon so they were either faking the data or a lot of stuff went unaccounted for
>>519679900It's just prefab high rise housing, not that different from other such buildings in other parts of the world.It's a design that prioritises practicality and resource efficiency over aesthetics, so they never looked good.However, they look horrible today because in a lot of places they haven't seen proper maintenance in decades. Otherwise they're still standing, despite the neglect, earthquakes etc.Commies deserve a lot of the hate they get, but people go overboard and don't acknowledge the good aspects of commie urban planning. There are always playgrounds between the blocks, as well as kindergartens, primary schools, post offices and so called polyclinics (not a full hospital, but enough to provide primary care and emergency services).The idea was that neighbourhoods were more or less self sufficient mini-cities and you had access to services very close to you.The buildings themselves had central heating during the winter, but no AC to keep you cool during the summer.They are not very energy efficient, but energy was cheap during communist times. The interior design was not that bad all things considered, the layouts were sensible, the furniture was mostly similar to mid-century scandinavian, but with a communist coat of paint.
>>519679900The only major issue with commieblocks is parking. When they were built most families owned one tiny car and a lot of people didn’t even drive.Nowadays, familes own at least two cars and the parking spots surrounding the buildings aren’t private so you can’t have your own spot. Because of this commieblocks are a nightmare if you own a car. There’s really no solution to this because where I live there are no underground garages so you can’t even buy a private parking spot. The parking spots are very small too so even if you find a spot (which is nearly impossible after 5pm) you car will almost certainly get damaged.Parking is the only reason I’d never live in an old building.
>>519684436>>519684568Absolutely shit interior design btw, it's something a landlord would do not someone who'd want to live there.
>>519679900It's a jail. They often turn off heating/elevators/electricity if someone from your floor did something bad
>>519679900a lot of dumb brainwashed fags in this thread saying that modern constructions have thin walls and lack features because theyre only built "for profit". this is dumb as shit and leads to the awful commie conditions you losers suffered under for decades (and STILL feeling the effects of). i live in a 15-year-old townhouse, obviously made for profit by a developer, and i cant hear a fucking thing my neighbors do. they could scream and i wouldn't hear. the walls just have very good insulation. i have a/c and heating, etc, etc., because people looking for housing want those things and will PAY for them. modern US homes also have great features because we have great innovative buildings products companies, which exist because the better they are the more profit they make.so get the fuck out of here with your retarded notion that only daddy government can make an apartment building with good sound insulation and central heating. the US is MILES ahead of you in building standards and has been for decades.
>>519685408>They are not very energy efficient, but energy was cheap during communist times.Unknowingly you posted evidence on how our civilization decays
>>519685879>leads to the awful commie conditions you losers suffered under for decades My life in commie block was comfy and enjoyable, go back to sniffing air for joggers
>>519685879>MY APPLES ARE MUCH SWEETER THAN YOUR ORANGESI wish mutts would go to bed and never wake up
>>519686035It was just waste heat from power plants, it would have been insane to not make use of it to heat people's apartments.
>>519679900I lived all my time in university in the bottom floor apartment of a commieblock next to the boiler room and sauna, it was the comfiest apartment i have ever lived in. It was always 22°C warm and there was a constant steady hum that lulled me to sleep as snow fell outside my tiny window.I was maximum comfy
>>519686191electricity can be soldthe entirety of Moldova lives Scott-free off energy generated in Romaniait is also sold for profit via intermediariesenergy is a "big" hugh-hush business in Romania being a cartel in itself
>>519679900A lot depended on your neighbors. I've heard a story about a bunch of gypsies moved into one of these buildings from their shitholes and they made things absolute hell. Like, "bring a horse to the sixth floor and butcher it there" sort of hell. >>519685879>the US is MILES ahead of you in building standardsDid you ever left your country in your life?
>>519686603he's talking about leftover hot water from power plants, not electricity
>>519686076We tried commie blocks too.They don't work here because niggers.
>>519686603I mean the hot water that's a byproduct of the operation of the power plant, not the electricity.Now I have to pay for just the electricity to keep warm in winter and for hot water, which of course is a lot more expensive.
>>519686640>>519686681Niggers/gypsies destroy everything so it's understandable, I'm not going to say you can't have nice things because of them, you can't even have normal, ordinary things because of them.
>>519680315antisemitism
>>519684968Dude needed a deep sea divers suit for that
>>519685879I grew up in France (left 20 years ago though) and these types of buildings house all the muslims and whatnot.Many of those blocks can’t even be accessed by police these days. I get that perhaps the proximity with other families and kids/friends might have been good for some but these are hellholes otherwise lol The only times I went to these was to buy some hashish and there was always a “welcome committee” to check who you were.None of these where I live now fortunately.
My grandma used to live in one of those, it was fun when I was a kid because everyone knee each other and all thee kids would play together, we would gather 20-30-40 kids and play all summer, I still am friends with many of those kids to this day.
>>519684407>now costs 110,000 EuroMental illness>>519684568What a waste of space, and you can't even modify the walls.>>519684524Is the bird included in the price?
>>519688786Just open some property listings here, the property market is completely detached from reality. >Is the bird included in the price?Yes the ashtray too.
>>519688786>Mental illnesslol. lmao even>3 rooms, Sofia city>left: average, right median
>>519679900always a pleasureIt's a glorified prison barrack.>they did not give a fuck about people bro.>the government needs workers in factory B to craft rockets.>you and your family are moving tomorrow.>period.>how the fuck do you think It works?
>>519679900The ones in the OP's pic are also made of panels, not bricks.There are commieblock brick houses. Same shit inside, but they have better insulation (preserve heat) and they will stay around much longer.Panel commieblocks simply fall apart.
>>519684106>tolerable because we had a top floor apartmentdamage from heavy rain, if not properly maintained.
>>519689159imo this is not a situation where you get what you pay for, lolSofia might be fine, never been to Bulgaria but the environment counts too and Romania is truly a dumpster fire in terms of services and civic lifelow trust society, r-select women, widespread paranoid schizophrenia due to everyone being a rat combined with high corruption and the lowest IQ of Euope make it such that even if you'd isolate yourself within your own apartment, you'd have monkeys climb and come at you throug the walls and without a way to defend yourself because guns are completely forbidden
>>519679900People were sold on a lie that these barracks are "temporary"...IMAGINE living in a commieblock MADE OF WOODSlowly rotting away.Delicious.
>>519684605thissolid concrete >>> cardboard
>>519679900The overall campaign has now come into view: a coordinated, multi-pronged Jewish (of course) attack on the whole concept of nigger-free suburban life, where you have control over your own environment and how you get around. All of these interminable threads with which we're being inundated...>cars bad>public transport good>"walkable cities" good>suburbs bad>lawns bad...are in effect the same thread.
>>519679900Pretty comfy. I liked the greenery in the center and the fact that the school was just 2 minutes away from home. Everyone knew each other.
>>519679900Multiply impact of neighbors by ten or a hundred.Good neighbors: Comfy living, shared facilities and utilities bring costs down. ($10/month gigabit Internet) Population density attracts services, the supermarket is literally downstairs.Bad neighbors: Lol.Condos or owned-apartments are generally better off than rentals as people try to maintain the investment. Also harder for gubment to dump people there.Rentals are usually shit as gubment dumps people on landlords (most landlords are just municipal-owned corporations) and pay extra for wear and tear because Mdongo has no idea how to live n a house.
>>519679900Everything built by soviets in before 1990s (except fopr Elite Apparatchik high-ranking party official housing): - fucking cold in the winter - falling apart - you can HEAR EVERYTHING through the wallsOh yeah they were mass building this shit in soviet colonies too (all eastern europe)
>>519683042looks like you called this one too early, anon
>>519689845although OP still sucks cocks, that much is clear
>>519689554>even if you'd isolate yourself within your own apartment, you'd have monkeys climbThis is true, we also have the highest NPD rates in europe, india-tier money worshiping retards. I don't want to find a job here, it would be middle school all over again
>>519689650I heard Putin wants to live forever by replacing this all his organs on rotationsI sure do wonder where they'll all get the surprlus organs from]
>>519689554Where the fuck do u live? where i live ive never ever encountered anything that u said, life's comfy
>>519679900>Famous carpet on the wallon the outter wall - protection from the coldon the inner wall - noisy neighbors...The design was stolen from 1930s european social housingHowever, this does not work in the cold climate of USSR
>>519679900Looks like comfy heaven. Libtard hyper-individualist landlord propaganda has no power to slander it especially these days. Free housing is better than anything really.
>>519689554there's an insane real-estate balloon that has been additionally accelerated by the wholesale invasion by ukrainians. If you don't have an apartment from your parents/grandparents, you're fucked. Or you can become a debt slave of course, 30 years mortgage couldn't be that scary. You can also high-five your neighbours because some corrupt city fuck gave permission for a new cardboard building 2 meters from your window
>>519689845i see no reason not to make another dump and bump these delicious pics to front page
>>519689845>>519689883it got revived only because I posted again, OP is still a 1pbtid faggot

>>519689919well he's currently mass murdering whites, probably a kike too.I would not be surprized
>>519690097Kids will perfectly enjoy and love the BB gun Tarkov battle there, I would have.
>>519679900What exactly do you like to know?
"Lived" in a commieblock in Shenzhen for some time(it's right next to Hong Kong, basically babby's first "bro I could actually LIVE in this endless free pussy country without overpaying") and I didn't have the luxury of worrying about anything mentioned ITT. The water smelled like gas, showering burned my fucking eyes, squatters sat in the hallways for some fucking reason, there would be a huge hole in the stairs so you had to climb down a makeshift stairs that extends out of an arbitrary side of the building and if that one breaks you'd fall 50 feet to your death. Just a total deathtrap, it being noisy through the walls was not my concern whatsoever. I was just surviving, and fucking slant pussy.
suburbia is peak stay made third worlders
>>519690213It's been so much fun playing at unguarded or abandoned construction sites or factories falling apartMany times i was very close to death, and my parents didn't have the slightest ideaStalker, Tarkov etc brings back good memories

>>519679900neighbors are absolute loser slave population that gets angry about parking space and call police and such for no reason, spread rumors and gossip all the timeit's pretty nice to see them all with their ugly wives and alcoholism whilst i bang young girls and have children with 7 women already
>>519689781>Condos or owned-apartments are generally better offYou don't seem to know the horror of an owners' meeting.
>>519690340>this is a matter of tasteI have a special quote i saved for western europeans:>My favorite aspect of russian cities is how every autist on 4chan in the past 15 years points at a picture of a run down, cold, damp russian commie block and calls it "comfy"Well maybe yours is slightly better, because Bulgaria is a warm country. Does not look good from the outside though.
>>519690401sounds about right

>>519690577that is because everyone wants to live in warsaw
>>519690654>that is because everyone wants to live in warsawIt's rather because they flooded poland with ukrainians, which is why housing is becoming scarce.
>>519690577This only makes sense if you're going to rent it out. 45m2 is too small for a family.
>>519690773i mean salaries are better in the capital cityobvious.
>>519690779>45m2 is too small for a family.*laughs in soviet despair...
>>519690779Already am, they pay 1000ish euros a month
>>519690056also don't forget the generational pressure of two generations, one after the other living within the same home as the preceeding generationso you have millenials lviing on gen-x property that are growing zoomers with the m in the same rebar boxwith a >1 ratio of children per parents these "homes" are now brimming with people that are expected to make every more people, quadratically, lol>additonally accerlated by immigrationyepif they even consider passing 770-like laws that Ceausescu did to curb abortion, it'll be brimming with people all squatting on someoene elses property because there will be nowhere to put them
>>519690445the important thing it's comfy on the inside - there's light and warmth after the dull grey weather and exterior
>>519690932How much of this remains net after taxes and other expenses?
>>519690734I wonder whether they got drunk one day and said, fuckit, I'm feeling creative, let's build this one like a circle because property was state owned in communism anyway so you can build as you please
>>519689532there was mold in one corner yes
>>519690578>SoCiAlism!>Meanwhile unsanctioned ChinaYou sound pozzed.
>>519690442I simply don't go on them. We have a plumbing replacement that's been cockblocked for 15 years because some whiny faggot renovated his bathroom and didn't want it torn out again.Nafris, nigs, latinx and chinks don't go on them either so it's been mainly managed by nords. Curry is sadly on the rise and I fear I have to sell my place and move elsewhere before it's worthless.
>>519690975>there's light and warmth after the dull greywell much better than living in a caveI agreeOne might argue, living in an old wooden country house that you heat with a wooden stove is comfy

Whoever sits there moaning about commie blocks must be out of their mind, they clearly never saw another option: favelas. That’s right, favelas, no order at all, everyone building however they want, no properly piped water or sewage, with gato net (illegal taps where people piggyback internet/cable or steal electricity), which makes the electric bill more expensive for those who pay honestly because these human scum keep stealing so they can leave the AC on 24 hours a day and so on. Not to mention every house is a mini bunker for traffickers and all kinds of shady businesses. On the other hand, if those commie block shits existed in Brazil 90% of the criminality problems would be solved overnight, because if there was crime in them it would be easy to pinpoint the location, raid it, and that would be that. Botoom line: commie blocks are based and a necessity.

>>519696231>central heating works 99% of the timehe is actually referring to "collectivized heating" in the sense that heat is provided from the same source to the entire building and the total bill is split evenly across the appartmentswhat "central heating" usually means is an electronic system that regulates the heat within a building in the sense that it turns off when it's warm enough of turns on when it's too coldthese older mammoth buildings had "collectivized heating" not "central heating"the heating company is usually at least by a percentage state property so the incentive of any worker is to work as little as necessary to get by and ensure their monthly wagesthere is no "competition" around that would provide an alternate heating solution or maintainance servicethis means that the %99, at least here, does not exist and in fact, turning on the water tap is a crapshootmost people that live here have added a boiler to make up for hot water because water cuts often enough yet hot water is almost never provided properly to some elusive "maintainance work" that always has to be carried outalso it's the same treatment, aggressive cashiers, annoying "controls" that hint to bribes, etcTL;DR, here, that doesn't work, at all

Depends. Actual soviet commieblocks are poorly built and not maintained so they suffer from constant mold and heating problems and typically have poor sound insulation so you can hear your neighbours.Westblocks such as in Finland and sweden have much better built quality and are constantly maintained. Often people have to sell their apartments because mandated renovations can cost millions and these are shared between everyone who have "shares" in the block. This is determined by how large your apartment is.
>>519701238>Finland and sweden>can cost millionsno thank you, I can watch snow fall in Siberia for peanuts and I know an ice skating ring next to me where the entry is less than the price of a beer
>>519679900My dad grew up in one with both parents and 4 brothers. It had two (spacious) rooms and a balcony. Commie blocks themselves weren't terrible, the issue was that there was a long ass fucking line for anyone to get their own commie block and his parents were given priority on account of having 5 kids.

>>519683084>noise travels best through dense materialOk retard. Then why is every soundproofing guide telling me that mass is the solution for soundproofing?Dense matter transmits sound better, yes, but because it is heavier it takes much more energy to make it vibrate and actually transmit that sound. Which means a heaver wall is a more soundproof wall.
>>519701425Millions for the entire housing association. If you have say 100 people living in one building in identical flats then a renovation costing 3 million would only be 30 000 per household.

>>519700228>but most important to me is anonymousity comparing to living in small village where everyone know each othergiga-autistic take. this is the most depressing aspect of both the commie blocks and the modern equivalent of city living. i can say that having seen both the commie block lifestyle and the village life aspect in my formative years in the USSR, the village life was infinitely better. not only did everyone know each other, but you could count on help from like 30 different people at any given moment. and i am pretty autistic too, and fine with not socializing most of the time. but the community life of a village is just infinitely better on all objective grounds. especially when it comes to raising children.
>>519701238depends of the year and country. I have an apartment which is a fucking citadel, with 20cm reinforced concrete walls with vibrated concrete, and one much thinner (about 15 cm) but with less quality like pebbles in concrete. Bioth are insulated now on exterior, first was 100k the whole block, I do not know the cost for the second but now the EU cost is 1 mil. 1 mil euro plastering some building with some jeets.
>>519703939>>519704030another angle - view on the city and polish mountains in the distance
>>519703679>student>smelling nigger fartsYou know, our families did not kicked us out when entering REAL universities (aka, tech ones). Sad to be you, reconsider your life.
>>519683042Sorry, fell a sleep. Was having a conversation with a ruski, and his perspective is somewhat similar.From mine, I guess I could see the benefits. On one hand, they can be seen as cold and "unhomey", however I could also imagine the cosy feeling, and close proximity with the neighbours mean you become a close knit community.
>>519701839>Everyone has a heavy duty hammer drill for when they want to drill a hole to hang a picture.WTF, why not just use adhesive hooks to hang a picture (in that scenario). Also, you can still hammer a nail into concrete using a normal hammer (with some effort).
>>519704291>polish mountainskek..is good Soviets gave you that. I spent a year in Poland. You can give Poland some mountains but one cannot stop a Polish peasant migrating to UK. At least your local mafia guys back then were proper and watched every nigger in town. All 2 of them.
>>519692250>smartest PoleHow does the insulation on the outer walls affect how much you hear of your neighbours? Are you retarded? Do you thimk there's 200mm styrofoam on the inside walls as well?
>>519686640Bro, are gypsies that bad? Lmao
>>519703460>>519700228>>519704291that's the view from all this blocks here the sundown
>>519704953>be named after "pole" (field)>have mountains>???>>519705198they are the worst
>>519690710>>519690734Do you cunts have single homes? Looks depressing desu
>>519705286your ancestors want you to move back to their village and breed a 15 year old (nice AOC btw). after 3 children total before she turns 20 you can go back to the commie blocks if you so desire.
>>519705454Opinion of single home (freehold, own back/front yard), etc. ?P.s. are ya happy thread got 290+ replies? All because of you anon
>>519705595not within city limits. single homes start on the "suburb" outskirts. there is no concept of suburbs like we have in anglo countries though. those are considered the equivalent of a village to a sophisticated city slicker USSR citizen. a single family home is either a sign of luxury if it's a "dacha" or something to be made fun of as "provincial" if the residents live in such awful conditions (not an apartment) year-round.
>>519705286>>519704291>>519703460>>519700228and here sunrise>>519705454sure gypsy .... Polska have as much in common with pole (filed) as Waszawa with Warsaw (war saw)
>>519705819>Opinion of single home (freehold, own back/front yard), etc. ?perfectly fine if you can maintain it and don't have to drive 20-30 min to wherever you need to go>All because of you anonyes, you can either wire me the payment or bomb the GGG officecs, up to you
>>519705819the other thing that prevented suburbs from forming in the USSR is the lack of vehicles. it's not that every soviet citizen was do propagandized that they thought raising a family of 7 in a 2 room apartment was a good thing. but with no reliable vehicle to get to and from the job where you pretend to work while they pretend to pay you was not an option. cars were an extreme luxury.
>>519706055>Polska have as much in common with pole (filed) as Waszawa with Warsaw (war saw)enlighten me then, where does the name come from if not from pole?
>>519706337its come from old tribe names Polanie that you can translate in english as people living on "clearing in the middle of forest"
>>519706922ah, I'm sure it has nothing to do with the word that comes from proto-slavic and is preserved in so many languages. Is this some sort of attempt to romanticize the origin of the name?
>>519707262no retard gypsy - we are the forests peopleand again its not POLEland but POLandand comes form world polana
