    Apple foldable iPhone Duo launched and pre-order date revealed

    Geez, 10 years to perfect it and you can’t move the dock to the left for us lefties? And only two apps open at the same time? Revolutionary stuff. ROFL.

    R10,999 BlackBerry-inspired smartphone lands in South Africa

    You can scroll using keyboard by sliding your fingers over it. Who's the local distributer though?

    Two Airlink Embraer 190s perform dangerously low flyover at Cape Town’s DHL Stadium

    Gosh, your truck analogy actually makes the opposite point. A kid can unexpectedly run into the road. the stadium isn't going to suddenly jump into the aircraft's path [emoji23] This is why the flyover was planned, risk assessed and rehearsed in the first place. watch the video below. He...

    Two Airlink Embraer 190s perform dangerously low flyover at Cape Town’s DHL Stadium

    12m above 55k people, lol. The reported 12–14m was above the stadium's highest point. The aircrafts also passed over the lower portion of the stadium, where the actual clearance was considerably greater. But apparently 6 senior captains, including 2 dedicated safety officers, plus everyone...

    Two Airlink Embraer 190s perform dangerously low flyover at Cape Town’s DHL Stadium

    More altitude obviously means more margin in the literal sense. But what specific emergency are you suggesting where an extra 20–30m at that speed provides a meaningful recovery option? More margin is safer is true, but by itself it doesn't establish that the altitude flown was unsafe.

    Two Airlink Embraer 190s perform dangerously low flyover at Cape Town’s DHL Stadium

    Okay, I concede. From that angle it was a little closer to the stadium than I thought.

    15 metres is low. 😂 The point is that low doesn't automatically mean near disaster. Some of those angles make it look like the aircraft was practically scraping the stadium roof. That's exactly why camera angle and reference points matter.

    I feel your pain with the T7. It's my current ADV bike, albeit heavily modified with K-Tech suspension for a stiffer setup. Even though I'm tall, that top heavy bastard has caught me out a few times where I'm convinced I would've kept almost any other bike upright. That's actually one of the...

    Two Airlink Embraer 190s perform dangerously low flyover at Cape Town’s DHL Stadium

    I’m no aviation expert, but some of these camera angles just make the lower aircraft look far lower than it actually was. The video below you can see the lower part of the stadium and get a much better idea of how high the lower aircraft actually was. Nothing about this looks like some near...

    Fair enough, different strokes. I'm definitely not the 400k ADV bike with knobbies type either. If only the KLE 500 had better ground clearance, I think it would've been an absolute winner and a great platform to build on. It looks like a really promising middleweight package otherwise.

    Why so defensive? [emoji23] Nobody said the 450MT is a bad bike. I simply pointed out that using a heavily modified factory race bike as proof of the showroom bike's capability is a bit silly. I mean, it is lighter out the box. So even if you race prepped a T7, F900 or similar, the 450MT is...

    You do realise the bikes (pros) they raced at Romaniacs was a heavily modified factory competition bike right? Suspension, weight reduction, protection, exhaust, controls, gearing and a pile of other changes specifically for hard enduro?

    Grand Theft Auto 6

    Knowing Rockstar, they'll maybe hide an Easter egg in the game. Like having something like “09/09/27” sitting innocently on a computer monitor or calendar in the game months before officially announcing the PC version :D
