It is starting to reach freezing temps here and my bedroom is a nice and cozy 12 degrees C right now. My gf and I look like the grandparents in Charlie and the chocolate factory because we lay on the couch under blankets the whole evening. But my heating is still off.

I pay 66 euro’s a month right now but my energy supplier suggests upping it to 192 euro’s a month, or pay a 350 euro end bill. I choose the end bill in the hope that shit will calm down soon because the amount is doable right now. Several of my coworkers pay 2-4000 euro’s for their end bill though. Needless to say, they can’t afford it.

How about you guys? Got any tips to heat the house without turning the heating on?

    Dumb westerner question comrade, but do you consider your nation socialist or socialist-aligned? I’ve looked into Algerian politics a little bit and was mostly left with more questions than answers. It’s a big question and feel free not to respond at all if you don’t feel like it.

    • It is a leftist aligned country pretending to be neutral, the country was socialist and currently defines itself as “free market economy” the ruling party is still the same arab socialist party it always had, there’s still socialist policies implemented and there’s 400+ nationalized sectors with privatization frozen since 2018, there was/is an oligarchy issue until the current president arrived and started arresting them because in his words “it’s common sense to arrest them”, Algeria’s situation is unknown to everyone because it wants to be unknown the country has seen what happened to gaddafi and dprk and doesn’t want the same to happen to it. It doesn’t call itself socialist to the population because of the red scare AL qaeda funded terrorists were doing in the civil war.
