[18/10/2019] Load-shedding escalated to Stage 2

[_TrXtR_]

Unabashedly racist bullschit. Jesus.

Do you have any evidence that black people cannot operate a power grid? Do only white people work at the electricity utilities in California?

BTW: I'm not saying Eskom is a well run business supplying a uninterrupted power to the nation. I'm saying they are a bunch of cnuts, of all colours.

Results speak for themselves

I don't remember there being much need for electricity when I was writing matric exams. We did it during the day and on paper.

But good to know that Eskom thinks the power loss is worse for people writing exams than the entire economy losing a couple billion rand when there is loadshedding.

So you didn't take Computer Science? Typing or anything that would require electricity?

Fibre line. Generator. IPTV subscription. Sorted.

And if the Fibre backhaul equipment fails due to generators running out of fuel... Then what?

I don't trust that

 

[Ancalagon]

Eskom is doing their best to remind the politicians not to interfere. Pay the execs the money and don't prosecute anyone and maybe the lights stay on. That's what this is.
