    Helen Zille explains R50,000 per pothole claim

    Cape Town tribunal approves Equinix data centres despite activist objections

    As far as I'm aware, most South African datacentres are closed-loop and don't consume much water at all. The only one I know of that did was MTN's Gallo Manor but they converted to a closed loop many system years ago. Datacentres are built for efficiency and redundancy. I would be VERY...

    BT Games will be forced to adapt in order to survive the end of physical game discs

    It's really hard to find high gamer gear. Yes you can find it online but I was recently looking for a mechanical keyboard and there's not one brick and mortar store that I could find that stocks the likes of Keychron or anything of reasonable quality where I could just try out a demo model.

    'They came with machetes' - deadline looms for migrants to leave South Africa

    ANC voters love a scapegoat. They simply don't believe in any accountability. To be fair though, illegal foreigners are a huge problem, and put a massive strain on policing, healthcare, housing and pretty much all facets of life for locals.

    'They came with machetes' - deadline looms for migrants to leave South Africa

    Our ward councilor accompanied by SAPS has asked, and big surprise, most of them are illegal foreigners. Our ward has been strongly encouraged to not employ these people.

    Say goodbye to shopping malls as you know them in South Africa

    Malls these days are staffed by minimum wage employees who don't understand their own products, and harass you with "how can I help you?" only because they want to earn sales commissions. Customers have to queue at boom gates, queue at the tills and get overcharged for parking in the dimly lit...

    South Africa’s DA seeks move for Steenhuisen to DTI, Rapport says

    So zero acccountability for his mistakes in Agri, and now he gets reshuffled to another department. Is the DA just an extension of the ANC now.

    Fireplace advice

    What type of wood did you get? I've had success with Sekelbos, Bluegum and Blackwattle. This year I bought a bakkie load from some dude outside Purple Tulip nursery on Cedar Rd, and got some mixed stuff for R1450 incl. delivery but I can't identify the wood, and whatever it is, it doesn't...

    Fireplace advice

    Sister-in-law is in the market for a new fireplace. She got some quotes. The Morso 1630 we paid R40k for in 2022 is now R60k. That's a 50% increase in 4yrs. Unreal!

    Equinix's Cape Town data centres face resistance even before handing in plans

    DCs require a huge amount of maintenance and doing this underwater is not feasible. This was a test to see if it works... it doesn't.

    Need to add more EEEEEEEEs to promote transformation.

    Equinix's Cape Town data centres face resistance even before handing in plans

    @Hanno Labuschagne AFAIK all of the DCs in South Africa run closed loop systems. There's very little wastage of water.

    Kruger National Park using security tech to help with investigation into killings

    Opened the article expecting some fancy tech... cellular triangulation, Ground Surveillance Radar (GSR), LiDAR , thermal imaging, and AI-driven video analytics but NOOOOOO.... Instead they have some off the shelf CCTV cameras from Takealot, and the footage didn't pick up anything...
