DStv exodus in South Africa — Premium subscribers not the only ones leaving

DStv Premium subscribers are not the only ones leaving the satellite TV service in South Africa, MultiChoice’s latest financial results show.
mybroadband.co.za mybroadband.co.za

Article or source incorrect in referring to the "Extra" DStv package.
Years ago MC changed the second-highest tier "Extra" package's name to match their equivalent in the rest of Africa - "Compact Plus".

The article refers to both but they are one package only.

Toyota reveals home battery system your car can charge

Toyota said the O-Uchi Kyuden System is also ideal for home solar power setups.
mybroadband.co.za mybroadband.co.za

Second Paragraph, Capacity is 8.7 KWh which is correct, Output is 5.5KWh which is incorrect.
Capacity = KWh
Output = KW (No "H")

I see this is quoted like this from the original article, though that article corrects this in the table at the bottom.

Why South African solar power systems can underperform in winter

Winter means less sun. Less sun means less solar power. Here is how you can optimise your system for improved performance during South Africa’s less radiant months.

Paragraphs 12 and 13:
1Mwh isn't 1000wh, it's 1000kwh.
300wh is extremely small, you most likely wanted 300kwh which would be slightly less than a 1/3rd of 1mwh

DStv launching new movie channel

Cinema buffs, action aficionados, and casual viewers alike will be spoilt for choice, the group behind the new channel has promised.

The channel is the fourth new entry to DStv’s catalogue during 2022, following Dreamworks and Kix, which were added in March 2022, and NHK World-Japan in July.

Incorrect, channel 114 KIX was added ages ago. (It was just included in some lower packages as well this year.)

Intel versus AMD processor showdown

Here’s how AMD and Intel’s latest processors compare in terms of performance and pricing.
mybroadband.co.za mybroadband.co.za

"The top-of-the-range AMD 5000 series processor is the Ryzen 7 5800X3D, while Intel’s top-of-the-line CPU is its Core i9-12900KS."

This is inaccurate at best and misleading at worst. Where are the Ryzen 9 chips in your comparison? Why are you comparing a gaming-focused second-tier AMD chip with Intel's flagship part in productivity workloads?

I'm also not convinced that this Nanoreview site is particularly good for making comparisons. It uses only synthetic bechmarks with no real-world usage data. It would be much better to refer to independent reviews by reputable tech media.

In short, disappointing article. I think you can do better.

Also,

Ryzen CPUs with the “G” suffix feature integrated graphics, while Intel processors with the “F” suffix include integrated graphics.

F-suffix processors do not have integrated graphics. It should say EXCLUDE integrated graphics.

Ramaphosa to sell more Buffalo despite ongoing farm scandal

President Cyril Ramaphosa has put up a dozen African buffaloes for auction amid political firestorm around whether or not he properly reported the scandalous farm theft.
dailyinvestor.com dailyinvestor.com

News24 reported on Wednesday that burglars only took $600 000 (just under R1 million) in cash, the proceeds from the sale of a single buffalo to a Dubai-based individual, and the money had been stored in a cupboard. The website didn’t say where it got the information.
