    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...

    NMBM wants to install a “Tjommie” in my house…

    So they want to install a ripple relay (Tjommie) to make your electricity supply even more intermittent that it currently is. I would chase these clowns away from my property.

    Banks scoring method for bond approval

    You would think this is how it works but its not. Ask a business owner that could easily afford to purchase a vehicle cash how hard it is to get vehicle finance. While I don't have direct experience of working in the loans department, from everything I've heard, the primary factor in...

    Decent headset for WFH

    My HyperX Cloud Alpha headphones have been great. I'm permanent WFH and I'm often in calls with clients 8am - 5pm. Never had issues with audio and microphone quality, and they're really well built. No issues in the last 4 yrs except wear and tear, and I got a replacement headband and ear pads...

    City Power says Johannesburg is at risk of widespread power outages

    We have a DA councilor, David Foley, in our ward. He's on top of everything. The man spends his weekends filling potholes with riversand till JRA fixes them.

    Good news about food prices in South Africa

    So a mate of mine works for a major food manufacturer. The increase in the fuel prices is going to have a significant impact on food prices to the point where they've cancelled his planned leave as he needs to renegotiate with all the retailers. The prices haven't come into effect yet because...

    Do you think Julius Malema will actually go to prison?

    I strongly believe this is what will happen, and that this outcome was planned from the very beginning.

    Supersonic records the lowest customer satisfaction score among South Africa's large ISPs

    I was with Supersonic. I wanted to upgrade my line, but after several unanswered calls, and two weeks of raising tickets through their website, and WhatsApp, I gave up. I even reached out through some backchannels that built their website, and nothing came of it. Ironically Supersonic responded...

    All iOCO staff return to the office

    The one thing that remote work has exposed is poor management. All those people that have been placed in management positions because they've been at the organisation for a long period of time but have no people management skills. These are the managers that book the daily and weekly recurring...

    Takealot says its marketplace isn't a hotbed for counterfeit products from Chinese merchants

    @mylesillidge Not very robust if they're ignoring feedback from multiple customers.

    South Africa’s newest bank going it alone

    Money, and consumer data. Banks know everything about you - what you earn, what you spend, where you spend. It's a gold mine of consumer data. Just think how valuable it is to know when a person gets a salary in their account or what their current account balance is. For PEP that's the day...
