@TelkomZA Please fire your entire mobile app dev team. They're absolutely clueless.

Put in a modal for an OTP, but it covers the touch keypad with no way to enter the OTP.

Why don't you reverse engineer the @MTNza app to see how a professional mobile app is supposed to work 🤔

Saudi YouTuber Maher Musalli’s account was deleted after he posted a powerful video about the Gaza massacres—one that challenges mainstream narratives and sparks important debate.
He deserves support, and this message deserves to be heard
Share it so his voice reaches the world.

David Goggins delivers a soul-shaking truth: The heaviest scars—from childhood trauma to silent battles—aren’t curses sent to destroy you. They are divine tests, hand-crafted to sculpt the unbreakable warrior you were always destined to become.

He warns that the real trials strike when everything seems perfect: “Tests come when you haven’t studied.” Yet the greatest victory isn’t avoiding pain—it’s diving deep inside every single day, staring down the chaos, and relentlessly choosing to heal, grow, and rise stronger.

Most people spend their lives running from discomfort. Goggins charges straight into the fire… and emerged as a living legend because of it.

Your pain isn’t random. It’s your forge. It’s shaping a version of you the world has never seen—tougher, wiser, kinder, unstoppable.

This raw 1:18 clip will light a fire in your soul that never goes out. Watch it, feel the shift, and carry that energy into your day.

Who’s embracing their test today and stepping closer to who they were born to be? Let’s go.

David Goggins has mental health issues which he has discussed at length due to his drunk abusive father.
David hates himself which is why he destroys his body.
His knees are completely ruined as is his back and feet.
In other words, never listen to a thing David Goggins says.

[Zakaria Desai @zacdesai]

Lol can't make this up. Nostalgic colonialism.

So I guess the rise to power in "Rhodesia" was a beautiful transition, with the native people lovingly handing over their land to the brilliant new British farmers?

Not a mosquito was harmed in the process right? 😉

[Will Tanner @Will_Tanner_1]

Why is Rhodesia important?

Because it was a normal Western country typical of the century prior to its destruction, one "more British than the British."

In fact, that's the very reason it was destroyed 🧵👇

Identify the people in your life who know a lot about certain subjects and love talking about that subject!

[Zakaria Desai @zacdesai]

@CoFoundersNik Oh perfect just subscribed 👊🏼

[Zakaria Desai @zacdesai]

@TelkomZA @ICASA_org So long @TelkomZA. At least you've made my decision on who to choose after my 10 remaining months easier.

Carry on. Do business like it's the 80s. While your marketing spends billions trying to attract new customers...

You guys pull in the opposite direction.

Classy #Telkom

[Zakaria Desai @zacdesai]

@TelkomZA So I just signed a 12-month fibre to the home contract for R549. I was not informed that the amount can be increased at any time during the contract. @TelkomZA suddenly increases my subscription to R619 on the 2nd month

[Zakaria Desai @zacdesai]

@TelkomZA @ICASA_org @TelkomZA I want a reference so I can take this up with @ICASA_org . She point-blank refused - saying I should go back to the store who signed me up. That's Julie - who told me to call the (un)help line. @TelkomZA is living up to their reputation as usual. Nothing changes

[Ramit Sethi @ramit]

Oops I realized I made a math error in my buy-vs-rent calculations all those years so I just bought a house. This is my new living room. Anyway remember that buying is always the right financial decision

[Kim Dotcom @KimDotcom]

@rodolphegeant Spain is indeed a super puppet of the US Govt and its no coincidence that they trapped Roger there.

[Rodolphe Geant @rodolphegeant]

@KimDotcom Both John McAfee and Ver got arrested in Spain. Both are/were crypto gurus. Are there any special relationship between US and Spain in the field of tax and finance ? Or is Spain just a super puppet of the empire ?

[Kim Dotcom @KimDotcom]

Roger Ver, one of the earliest Bitcoin investors was arrested in Spain for alleged tax evasion and the US Govt is seeking his extradition. The US DOJ claims that Roger under-reported the value of his Bitcoin holdings when he gave up his US citizenship in ‘2014’.

At that time Bitcoin was the wild-west of investing. There were no rules and regulations governing Bitcoin. It wasn’t clear what the legal status of Bitcoin was. Bitcoin value would vary substantially with any large transaction crashing the price of Bitcoin. How do you assess the value of such an illiquid asset back in 2014? To now claim, a decade later, that Roger owes $50 million in taxes to the US Govt is ludicrous.

I have read the indictment and its completely novel, unprecedented and unfair. It’s also a hopeless attempt to attach a value to something that was trading in a fragile, volatile and unregulated market in 2014. Many ‘investment gurus’ at the time predicted the total collapse of Bitcoin and that crypto currency is only used by criminals as a tool for money laundering and potentially funding terrorism. No investment bank would have touched Bitcoin at that time.

How does the US Govt calculate what Bitcoin was worth in those days of total uncertainty? If Roger would have tried to sell his Bitcoin holdings in 2014 the market would have crashed by 80% or more. How do you fairly asses the value of something that is was so new and fragile? The US Govt doesn’t even make an attempt to be fair and balanced.

Make no mistake. This indictment has nothing to do with tax evasion. It’s a witch hunt against a man who turned his back on US wars and malicious foreign and domestic policy. Roger is a supporter of Julian Assange and press freedom not just with words but with actions. He’s a popular speaker at crypto events around the world where he educates people about the injustices caused by the US Govt.

Roger spoke out against mass surveillance, endless wars and the murder of innocent people for profit. He funded many good causes against US imperialism and that’s why they target him. At every opportunity Roger spoke about why he left his US citizenship behind and a wave of successful Americans followed his example. The US Govt has lost hundreds of billions because Roger was leading the way for many successful entrepreneurs who followed his example.

This is a malicious attempt to vilify Roger and to punish him for exposing and opposing the crimes of US empire.

Roger Ver is one of my closest friends and I vouch for his integrity and exemplary leadership. His empathy for humanity and his efforts to take the world on a path of peace through technology are laudable. He always stood up against evil and now I would like to ask the crypto community to stand up for Roger Ver.

He has done so much good for the crypto community with his advocacy and investments. Let’s leave our differences about what’s the best coin behind and join together to help him. He has played a crucial role in the history of crypto and is deserving of our support. We didn’t call him Bitcoin Jesus for nothing. #FreeRogerVer

@Afrihost @webafrica @AxxessInternet Would you guys sign a customer into a 12-month contract, with no mention that the price agreed is actually going up from R549 pm to R619 pm ONE month into the term? Well @TelkomZA does - and thinks nothing about it. 😡@ICASA_org
