@sboshmafu I think the seller of the land to the City added it as a condition to the sale. I think maybe he was Jewish, but not sure at all. Not sure if it even was a religious motivator.

I had no idea Pinelands in Cape Town is a “dry suburb.” The sale of liquor is restricted so no bottle stores operate there and only on-site consumption (restaurants, bars etc) is allowed. It’s not technically illegal but the community opposes anyone who even tries.

@RassieRugby Just look at where they are staying (i assume this a “work” thing), nothing fancy or over the top. Responsible leaders, unlike the politicians

Its Weekend 🇿🇦 “a few hours later” Enjoy weekend 🇿🇦

@Sthi047 @thehonestnick @elonmusk And of what background will that 30% ownership be?

The problem is that @elonmusk feeds you fake news and everyone runs with it. The BEE shareholding requirement applies to Foreign Entities, irrespective of who owns it, for example, if starlink was owned by Aliko Dangote, a black Nigerian billionaire, he would also be subject to the 30% requirement because the ENTITY IS FOREIGN!!!! FOREIGN FOREIGN FOREIGN!!!!!!!!

Now that @elonmusk has learned that as a non-European, he can't own majority shares of Ryan Air, will he spit and shout about it like he has been doing re: Starlink in South Africa?

@BaandzMakeHer @thehonestnick @elonmusk Then you are exactly where you want to be.

@KapteinCaptain @thehonestnick @elonmusk Well white South Africans have proved not to care either about black South Africans so what other option is there? I’d rather have my own people screw me over than another race

@BaandzMakeHer @thehonestnick @elonmusk The politicians and their family will receive the ownership and marginalized people will not benefit. The government doesn’t care about you, stop defending them.

@KapteinCaptain @thehonestnick @elonmusk Considering black people weren’t allowed much ownership of anything during apartheid because of their skin colour, Elon needs to suck it up and give away a percentage of either his company or a portion of revenue to the government.

@SandyofCthulhu We have a lot more people te feed

Back in the Paleolithic, we had plenty of food. Famine didn't appear until we started large scale farming. Farmers starved because of periodic droughts, and at that time hunters started starving too, because they were driven to marginal lands.

@666holydiver666 @rmcentush West Coast of Sub Saharan Africa is cold ocean.

@rmcentush At the same latitudes, West Coasts are always warmer than the East Coasts due to warm oceanic currents.

i think about this a lot

@MorePerfectUS @chasedownleads There onto your interview-vending tricks. We must adapt.

Approximately 30% of all job postings are fake, with millions of ghost jobs making a tough hiring process even worse.

@NoContextHumans @hardestgeezer for your next challenge

@dcsandbrook @TheRestHistory @holland_tom Much like we remember the tragedies committed by the British during the Second Anglo-Boer War, I have not forgotten this oath made by a British representative, Mr. Sandbrook. By the way, the First World War is great so far.

@KapteinCaptain @TheRestHistory I would love to do this.

Hello @TheRestHistory , I was wondering whether you may be willing to do an episode on the Anglo-Boer wars? It is quite niche, but a very interesting war that has had limited coverage in the digital era. I love your podcasts, keep it up.

@dcsandbrook @TheRestHistory Thank you @dcsandbrook for the reply, I am honoured. I was quite surprised by the amount of notifications this morning. There are lots of interesting facets to the war and I will be on the lookout for it!

Hello @RassieRugby, according to Wikipedia, is this the correct term for Despatchers in Afrikaans?? 😅

@jenna_original *Electoral Court goes with Zuma*: "Yay Court system shows justice to Zuma, yay!" *ConCourt goes against Zuma*: "Joh, something is wrong with the Court, not right" *cries*

Something is wrong with Concourt. This is a useless judgment.

@ShowmaxOnline hello, is there any way to turn off auto play on the new app? I also would like a better sort by genre mechanism than the current sustem.

@GibbyDaGap @AshrafRSA @GroundUp_News @MattHirsch08 Are you an idiot? They have lived in the "economic hub" for 7 years and could not make a living. Seeing that you feel so strong about it, why don't you take in a few of them.

@allllllas995677 @AshrafRSA @GroundUp_News @MattHirsch08 Where is the alternative housing? From my understanding it's in Blikkiesdorp in Delft which is an informal settlement with RDP shacks. How are they supposed to make a living if you displace them so far from economic hubs and their community?

Homeless people were evicted from "tent city" in Greenpoint #CapeTown. Some were dragged from their tents and a fire broke out. Many are unsure of where they'll go from here. Read the full story on @GroundUp_News here: groundup.org.za/article/greenp…. With words by @MattHirsch08
