A transformer has tripped, impacting supply to areas such as Plattekloof, N1, Big Bay, Elsies River, Goodwood, Kraaifontein, Tiervlei among others. The power is being restored but tripping due to network instability. All teams are attending to this as a matter of urgency.

You won't believe what they're doing in China. This is the Chinese port in Guangzhou. People unload ships remotely with 5G, AND THEN, AI vehicles automatically drive the containers to trucks and load them, without human assistance. #WaytoModernization

Have been trialing @RunsOnRunsOn for the last 9 days. And our total service costs on AWS using spot instance is the same as our daily spend was using the same size runners on GH actions. Great work @crohr

So you can’t close a private clients account in a branch you need to ask your banker. Sounds convenient but I have now been trying to close my account for 3 months with varying rates of response from my “dedicated banker”. @Nedbank private clients is such a fucking waste of time

The account has been overdrawn due to accrued bank fees for a week or so and they tell me I need to clear the debt before the account can be closed. Umm sorry I have been trying to close the account for THREE MONTHS while it had money to cover fees.

The only striker Erik ten Hag will have available is Wout Weghorst. Meanwhile, Guardiola will have Erling Haaland and Julian Alvarez. Build Erik ten Hag a statue if he somehow wins this final… #MUFC
