This is pretty common in Hungary. One old homeowner doesn’t want to pay the reconstruction fees, because they either won’t live for so long, or doesn’t think it would help and/or a good idea. One such case ended up in having to call the cops on an old man after he got so angry at the others for wanting to replace his beloved gas convectors with central heating instead, that he attacked the others and screamed constantly while being pinned down until the cops arrived. Others just really surprised why this is needed as “Viktor Orbán is getting cheap gas for us” (only in propaganda, but since Orbán’s best friends own 80-90% of the media, none of them hear about it).
In my building, some apartments just couldn’t afford to do this. At the time, I was able to chip in, but lately I’ve been pretty broke so I wouldn’t be able to afford it right now.
FYI, this is not just painted, this is paint over insulation for the apartment. Should keep things warmer in winter and colder in summer.
Now I want a babybel.
This is an ad? Holy fuck. Is this the future with AI. We get shitty subliminal ads instead of content? I’d much rather have my head bashed in by some robot.
thb if this was an ad it would be genius and they deserve their revenue
What’s with _ this _ stuff
They all look the same from the inside…
But the one that hasn’t paid does not have the same amount of external insulation. See the thickness of “paint”, it’s not just paint, it’s insulation layer commonly used to improve thermal efficiency of a building.
Still, he’ll benefit from heat raising from the apartment below, it’s those above him that are worse off because the heat will escape through his walls.
actually to me it looks like the outer layer was ripped off. Maybe they’re renewing it and this is in-between removing the old one and installing the new one.
Ross don’t want a happy little facade?
