I hope everyone enjoyed the last load shedding free days and stage 1 we'll ever see.

 

[Vorastra]

lmao didn't take long.

 

[Dimpie (JIGSAW)]

Yip, that didn't last long

 

[Harmonic]

Never seen the demand so low! One has to question whether Stage 1 is even required today...

I wonder if they're not starting to use load shedding as a form of debt control now that it's almost normalized

 

[B-1]

All you okes holidaying and switching on your air cons

An interesting point. There might be something to that...

 

[The_Librarian]

Thanks for the leccy and goodbye

 

[Brian_G]

Little bit of a secret war going on methinks, any remaining stability now all vaporised.

Thanks anc & co., ne.

I wonder if they're not starting to use load shedding as a form of political control now that it's almost normalized and they failed at it with COVID-19

FTFY

Time for a revolution.

Nah, even if you could stir interest there's nothing proper to replace them with :-/
Also don't forget snowflakes don't fight

The revolution will be on twitter.

A mate of mine from Malawi is horrified at the state of SA. He compared it to Moz just after the war. All thats missing are the bullet holes. The ANC has truly wrecked the country.
The average idiot has no idea how fkd it really is.

Having context from another country is a beautiful thing. People are just slowly being boiled here

Yup surprisingly Africa is fixing their power issues, but we're going backwards

There are kids now whom have grown up here only knowing power cuts. It's the norm. Heck I still have my old man ranting on about how he could fill his Ford for R5 way back when and I'm doing the same with the current petrol price.

Ultimately this will take alot of time to fix, if ever. Until then you either acquire a desired skillset/finances and get to a place where there is reliable power *somewhere abroad* or you grit your teeth and get solar

Yes if the kids are 4 or 5 years old.
We've not had continuous load shedding for 15 years, in fact after the load shedding in 2008 we didn't see it again until 2015, after that it was 2018.
So yes if the kids are 4 maybe 5 sure, before that it was sporadic
