    Town shocked after 16 kids looking like "almost feral animals" rescued from deplorable Ohio home

    Isn't it racist to say that? Or am I missing something? I was under the impression it is against this forum rules to mention skin color in the context you did. Or you thought you are on X [emoji38]

    South Africans lured into becoming money mules and could go to jail for it

    You made me laugh this morning... However, I like this name much more than some of the European sounding names they give themselves. With my work, I do have access to the home affairs database and you won't believe the names you see there [emoji38] Pirate, Sms, Captain, Doctor, Cellphone, Tire...

    After 2030, ground stations will be less and less important, unless the data you are looking for is in that specific part of the World.

    Starlink will disrupt mobile and fibre operators in South Africa — Vodacom veteran

    I hear you. Absolutely, places like Soweto will definitely hit a wall when every 5th household goes Starlink [emoji106] But in more rural areas, where you get a few houses here and there clustered together, this will definitely make a change.

    26-year-old South African giant buys Australian company

    This company does not even meet the watered down BEE laws for mining in South Africa. They are only 26% BEE compliant instead of the required 30%. And what does the company do next? Running to Australia [emoji38] If you have money in South Africa and want to get them out of the country, speak to...

    South Africa trolled by African fans in wake of World Cup loss

    Yes but you see: If you don't get involved with the drug cartels you are more or less ok. In South Africa you will get robbed, raped and murdered even if you have private security, electric fense and burglar bars... #RealityCheck #FactsDoMatter

    Quote: "Here's a question: why, as a supposed Romanian, are you so invested in South African politics - even extending to Afrikaaner refugees in America?" Obviously I touched a nerve here... Answer to your question: Because lately South Africa has been in the World news for all the wrong...
