Who says there are no perpetual motion machines? I've not used a candle since like 2018
its physically impossible to build a perpetual motion machine,
too many obstacles, and many links along the way that slow it down,

unless somebody here actually has a Fusion reactor in their basement.

no but the closest Humanity has ever got to a perpetual motion machine is a fusion reactor,

maybe then we can finally leave our filthy, overcrowded and Polluted earth.

Read the tweat ... CoCT only shedding 17:00 - 19:00 on Stage 1 ... what you talking about 7-8 ?
You are the one misinterpreting.

On stage 1 our loadshedding slot is at 02:00 - 04:30.

On stage 2 our loadhsedding slotS are stage 1 PLUS 18:00 - 20:30. However the latter slot now gets eliminated since we've been downgraded to stage 1.

CoCT is saying that they will only start LS at 17:00 and SUSPEND it at 19:00. Meaning the city will only have LS for 2 hours if things stay as they are. They have to LS during those two horse because it's the evening peak.

Given the above our area won't go off at all today.

wait till China and India implement a 10 Child policy....
Unlike the ZA 'breed-as-much-as-you-can' scheme with incentives child grants? Luckily we start from a low base compared to China and India

i give up ... we're not all in the same zone ... I was talking to dualmeister ....

If he was meant to be off on stage 1 between 18:00 to 20:30 he is not getting a freebie, but will still be off for an hour from 18:00 to 19:00 ... you feeling me know? :p

so yea, if his area is not on the 18-20:30 list then hooha

I said "we" because him and I are in the same zone. If it was stage 2, we'd be off for an hour, but not on stage 1

At this point I just have to come out and thank Eskom for cycling my LFP's just so that I don't have to. :thumbsup:

Never trust a word cumming out of Eskum and their LS schedule bullsh*t and maintenance plans.

I have more faith in Trump.
