    I recently ordered an 8GB Pi4 for R1100 from Digikey. They are based in the USA but have a co.za address. Total order (R4500) was over R2000 so shipping by UPS was free. Had to pay R800 in customs. I will use them again

    Here are the changes planned for South Africa’s post offices

    I went to a post office the other day to mail 4 letters. On arrival I was told to fall in at the back of the line that streched around the building and down the street as people are waiting for their R350 handouts.

    Vacuum tube solar Geyser

    Home rowers - Threshold Sports, Infiniti, NordicTrack

    My first el cheapo rower had a strap instead of a chain. The strap frayed within a year behind the handle bar and I had to do some repairs before selling it and buying a C2. At how many meters will the chain start slipping? I think the fact that there is support to fix it is reassuring. Who...
