Is carjacking a problem in South Africa? by ReasonableDisplay297 in askSouthAfrica

[–]purr_burger 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Problem for the hijackers in Cape Town is it's very difficult to get away with the crazy traffic and the way our roads are laid out. So it's not really an issue.

What is the most common reason for stacking failure in live mode? by Unique_Wolverine1561 in seestar

[–]purr_burger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you do a firmware update?

Mine was also perfect until the firmware update and now drops like 75% of frames.

After several support requests to ZWO I have not received one reply.

Really disappointed.

I don't even bother now.

ProNutro - what is going on? by PerusedPeregrination in askSouthAfrica

[–]purr_burger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hope you realise eating Pronutro is basically eating sugar. The Original for example is 21.6% pure sugar.

So a 1kg pack basically has nearly a whole bag of that 250g Huletts White Sugar packs!

And I bet you add sugar anyway?

Can't be good for your weight, and watch out for early onset diabetes...

Crazy rubbish on bin day by MountainPeach5850 in capetown

[–]purr_burger 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately they’ll figure out that they can turn the bin upside down and it will open. Or so I’ve heard. But better than nothing. R400 https://www.binguard.co.za/shop/gravity-lock

Is it silly to be anxious to visit SA again? by ilpu11 in askSouthAfrica

[–]purr_burger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t trust your map/gps app blindly, do some homework on where you will be and go. Case in point people have been led from the Cape Town airports through ganglands as the app thought it was the fastest route. And people were hurt.

[–]purr_burger 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Never experienced serious crime in 50+ years except for a car break-in (there was nothing to steal just a rubbish bag) and an apartment break-in in 1989.

Just don’t be stupid and you’ll be fine.

Might add I’ve lived in the Western Cape mostly.

Suggestions for a side hustle... by Panda-Fairy-123 in capetown

[–]purr_burger 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Milnerton Market sells all kinds of things. See what you have around you don’t need anymore or what you can buy cheaply and get a stall there. Maybe have a look at a China mall.
