    Synology Survey 2025 – DiskStation DS925+ NAS units up for grabs

    1. Rising cloud storage costs and constant need for more space (my family doesn't believe in archiving or deleting useless files). 2. I quite like the Immutable Snapshots for backups with point-in-time recovery. Since I can't always monitor what everyone does this would go a long way in ensuring...

    South Africa’s fast-food giant – and it’s hungry for more

    One has to admire the Basson family. Whitney made sure that his son was set up nicely at Shoprite just out varsity at Stellies, and then overtime ensured that Adrian got a nice post at HL. Wouldn’t be too surprised if the company Shoprite sold HL to is really just a friends and family shop of...

    South African IT pros' favourite computer peripheral brands

    I mean my Logitech Mouse and Keyboard were about 3.5/4k when I bought them. Probably the best combo I’ve ever had. Not everyone uses the R150 takealot combo

    @AfriNatic my iMessage isn’t syncing to the number I have ported over to AirMobile, is there reason why this may be happening?

    Fuel tax hike warning for South Africa

    I was going to say that we should implement a Black tax too, but this is very much a thing already. I had a colleague at a previous job that was expected to give just over half his salary to his family to ‘say thank you’

    Yes, when Starlink comes, it should be taxed at 100% tax so it is equitable!

    Fuel tax hike warning for South Africa

    I was watching an episode of that show I blew it on Showmax the other day. Some guy won R 17 million and bought a house in a middle class suburb. 2 months after moving in his water and lights were turned off due to non-payment of utility bills and he was shocked, he literally said he did not...

    Fuel tax hike warning for South Africa

    Does this include double taxation for state services which I have to replace with private stand-ins because they dont work? (R 5000 for medical aid, R 4000 for solar panels, R 1500 for borehole water, R500 for private security, R10000 for private school, few R 100s for firearms for myself (and...

    Fuel tax hike warning for South Africa

    This ruined a friend of mines father’s business. He sold his tyre business here and left the country with the whole family. A whole grouping of taxpayers gone.

    Fuel tax hike warning for South Africa

    I agree. Biggest issue is we will see income tax go up faster to plug the budget hole than fuel tax, at the same time we still have to pay both so we’re double screwed. I hate the fact that brain dead idiots in this country love to say that we all pay tax (meaning VAT and fuel) without...

    Medical Intern Posts

    Hi all, a friend of mine is going to be applying for medical internship next year (he’s super excited). I have a few questions if you can possibly help. 1) where can I find a list of all the postings for the medical internship posts, and how much space each hospital has? I was just reading that...
