More than 100 people in South Africa are believed to have died since becoming trapped in an abandoned gold mine in November. Why police are coming under scrutiny.

Ja son 10 els països que recolzen i participen de la denúncia per #genocidi formulada per #SouthAfrica contra #Israel .

Tant de bó s'esquerdi del tot aquest discurs mentider que nega el genocidi contra la nació #palestina .

Tant de bó #Netanyahu sigui jutjat i empresonat per criminal.

Tant de bó aquest sigui el principi del final d'aquesta teocràcia colonial anomenada #Israel

El poble jueu té dret a un estat, pero no així, ni a #Gaza ni a #Cisjordania ni a #Siria .

Given that Elon #Musk seems to be emerging as the un-elected “power” behind Donald #Trump’s “throne”, it’s interesting to explore his family background:

This piece in Jim Stewartson’s MindWar blog explores Musk’s privileged racist, Nazi-supporting roots via an interview that his father, Errol, gave on New Year’s Day!

South Africa motorists face rising threat of highway spiking

https://www.wionews.com/videos/south-africa-motorists-face-rising-threat-of-highway-spiking

Motorists in South Africa are grappling with a rise in highway spiking incidents, where criminals place spikes or obstacles on roads to force vehicles to stop, leading to robberies and life-threatening situations. Authorities have identified several hotspots, prompting increased police patrols on major freeways.

EU OFFICIALS WILL CLAIM IGNORANCE OF ISRAEL’S WAR CRIMES. THIS LEAKED DOCUMENT SHOWS WHAT THEY KNEW.
The internal EU document may strip European foreign ministers of “plausible deniability” in Israeli war crimes in Gaza, experts said.

“It seems likely the United States covertly approved South Africa's ICJ application: What to expect under Trump?”

by Mike Hampton in Same Shit, Different Government on Substack

“I am proposing [..] that the United States government covertly encouraged South Africa’s ICJ application and may even have been the source of the idea for it.”

BREAKING 🚨

Starting at 7pm tonight the lawyer, Tal Becker, who represented Israel at the ICJ against South Africa will be giving a talk at the Seattle Tennis Club to genocide supporters.

Seattle Tennis Club is located at 922 McGilvra Blvd E. I hear there will be a protest. Palestinian flags and photos of martyrs are encouraged. Arrive early. DM for meeting location.

#Musk laughably promotes himself as a self made Billionaire when nothing could be further from the truth. He started life 3-0 up because his dad owned valuable emerald mines in #SouthAfrica. No bank loans or business brains needed!

Musk is brilliant at spotting opportunities & brown nosing with those in power to gain government subsidies & contracts. The more his wealth accumulated, the more he used it to gain friends & influence people.

The $42bn he spaffed on #X seems cheap at the price! 🤷🏾‍♂️
Musk didn't create any of his companies. He bought them using family money from the South African emerald mines they owned

Israel to close its Dublin embassy, accuses Ireland of 'crossing red line' by supporting ICJ genocide petition – Firstpost


To point out the absurdity of a #twostatesolution in the liberation process of #Palestine, a comparison with the #liberation of #SouthAfrica could be an eye-opener. It would have been as if the world had insisted on a separate state for the #Boers within the country in 1994.

The Samsung SmartTag 2 is down to $15 for Black Friday — But In South Africa still at Full Price!


Two black, and two white, Samsung SmartTag 2 tracker devices with a white background.
Yes, it is pretty sad to watch some other countries get some really great tech bargains. I did go to Samsung though in Cape Town and managed to negotiate R100 off a 4-pack (that’s a US$5 discount).

I couldn’t wait any longer to ditch my AirTags seeing I moved back to Android over a year ago.

At least on the furniture front, I made up for this with a lucky draw, which got me an additional discount over the Black Friday discount at Four Walls. It was my biggest purchase today, so pretty happy about that.

Too many stores were also just giving 10% discounts, which is not really in the spirit of Black Friday.

But back to tech, I do love the Samsung SmartTag 2’s as they do have separation alerts, which the Google Find My Device still does not have.

Metr: Electricity Tracker is a new Android app to track Pre-Paid Electricity in South Africa


A screenshot of the Metr app showing three information buttons - one says Daily expense R100, another shows Daily consumption as 30.07, and the third shows Cost per unit as R3.33.
Metr helps you simplify your prepaid electricity budget. All you need to do is create an entry each time you purchase electricity and Metr will automatically calculate your cost per unit, daily expenses and daily consumption. These statistics can help you be more aware of your electricity usage, providing a metric for you to improve and save!

Under useful stats, it also has Time Until Next Refill. This can help you budget and plan, knowing when you will need to purchase electricity again. It will also allow you to know how long your balance is going to last.

This is by a brand-new developer as their first attempt at writing an Android app, so it may have some rough edges, but it could be really useful to many in South Africa.

It is free with adverts so although the dev does not collect or share your data, the Google ad system may well do so. If the app does well enough, maybe the dev will consider doing a paid ad-free version too.

Online shopping syndicate warning in South Africa


A woman wearing a black hoodie which is obscuring the top of her head. Her hands are holding a toy size shopping trolley in front of her.
Hot on the heels of today’s report about some incredibly weak passwords that South Africans are using online, and then re-using across other websites, comes this warning now about very realistic looking fake online shopping sites that closely resemble the real brand.

We have Black Friday coming up, as well as the festive season, so everyone is looking out for bargains. We should never be clicking on links we receive over instant messengers or e-mails, but now you want to be doubly sure you are actually on Takealot, or whatever site you expect to be on.

I’d suggest you check the URL carefully before making purchases, and rather use your saved bookmarks to access sites you regularly use. Your password manager refusing to show a login, is also a sign you may be on a fake site.

South African Rural Sculpture

South Africa has a rich rural carving #tradition. During the 1980’s this mode of #artistic expression acquired new dimensions with the emergence of rural #artists who were self taught and unexposed to other influences. As a result of the isolating of black South Africans into rural community areas, the artists residing in these areas created work that was authentic and unconditioned.
