16x2 Cyrillic LCD available in USA?

Then Google Groups is faulty, since the message contained the header

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=KOI8-R

so the text should be rendered correctly.

Graphic displays with 122x32 pixels and SED1520 controller might be easier to get, and interfacing should be similar.

How many units do you need? :-)

The name was invented with some sense of humour way back, then when things got serious it had already stuck. Not the worst of names anyway, and by todays standards not whacky enough to scare many people away, I guess.

And I thought I was the only one! People always think I'm mad when I say I want to go. I'm getting married next year which will take all my vacation days so if I don't go this year then I'll have to wait a couple of years.

There used to be an outstanding website (which sadly disappeared one day) created by a young lady who lived near the area who would slip the security a small 'donation' and they would let her ride her motorbike around the exclusion zone which meant she could ride as fast as she liked and there were no moving vehicles or creatures bigger than foxes to crash into.

The site had a wonderfully glib tone and she bore no malice to the authorities who, it could be fairly easily argued, did not handle the crisis all that well. Very touching and she had some great pictures. Shame to lose it - maybe it is hosted somewhere else now. A-ha!

Brilliant site.

If you don't go this year, you won't be able to see the sarcophagus at CNPP; they are supposedly installing the "huge wheeled Quonset hut" shield in 2008.

Yeah, I've read it, but other reports make it out to be a hoax;

Actually Pripyat is probably the single place on this planet I'd most like to live. The post-apocalyptic deserted city vibe very much appeals to me. (And no, I'm not being tongue-in-cheek). I'd rather live in space, or in a deep-sea habitat, but Pripyat is an excellent third-best.

Google Groups has bugs? Oh no! Say it ain't so!!

On close inspection, this option turns out to be really nasty. Current application uses 4-bit mode, and there are not 4 more spare I/Os for an 8-bit bus.

What a naive idea. You will be fighting for the survival with pillagers, illegal settlers and the other scum which is hanging around there.

If you *really* want to live in such place (about which I have some doubts), you can choose a ghost town. There are many abandoned or half abandoned places in KS, OK, AR.

Ok, then try this one.

It has an SPI-like mode (CS, A0, SI, SCK), and it seems to be available.

I have been using it in my microcontroller experiments. In figuring it out, connected to my PC, I fount it is Cyrillic, and I know Cyrillic when I see it (not that I am an expert in it).

I sent Elena Filatova a donation a couple of years ago, I was that impressed with this. There's a lot of really good info and images there that no base hoax could accumulate. I think the controversy doesn't suggest she never went to get her own images though, but that there might have been several people finding ways in for various reasons, many before she went in, and at least one extra person with her to take pictures, though why the person who claimed that seems not to have heard of tripods and timers in cameras is anybody's guess. I guess some people just needed this to be a hoax, as some seem to need the moon landings to be a hoax.

Posting from rural Kansas. I can supply a very long list of very small villages in Kansas. Some still have houses which can be fixed.

While working in the Ukraine we used Bolymin LCDs, which had cyrillic coding. If the company still exists

The apocalypse is still in progress in NYC.

And, for the record, I loathe every stone of the place and can't wait to leave.
