Eryk Sun added the comment:
The default encoding on your system is Windows codepage 1251. However, your
file is encoded using UTF-8:
>>> lines = open('ResourceStrings.rc', 'rb').read().splitlines()
>>> print(*lines, sep='\n')
b'\xef\xbb\xbf\xd0\x90 (cyrillic A)'
b'\xd0\x98 (cyrillic I) <<< line read fails'
b'\xd0\x91 (cyrillic B)'
It even has a UTF-8 BOM (i.e. b'\xef\xbb\xbf'). You need to pass the encoding
to built-in open():
>>> print(open('ResourceStrings.rc', encoding='utf-8').read())
А (cyrillic A)
И (cyrillic I) <<< line read fails
Б (cyrillic B)
