Power Cut

Wahee. Just having my first power cut in SA! On the laptop though, so can keep doing some work, and my server is ok too.

They are much less common this year apparently than last year, but clearly still happening.

Earlier in the year it was happening every day. They even have a name for it: 'load shedding'.

Basically every day, each area of SA would get switched for for 1-4 hours every day in order to try and let the power stations cope.

Crazy eh ?

Power is still bouncing on and off here just now.
