    RIP .... Harmony Remotes

    I'm hoping for the same. It's a shame they're stopping but I guess the market is no longer there. I've also been using Harmony remotes for 10+ years, nothing else.

    Best guitar solo

    Not the best, but one of the most memorable for me is Steve Vai "talking" to David Lee Roth on Yankee Rose.

    Great song intros

    Please list some of your favourites gents. Could be because I just listened to it and it's the reason for this post, but my top pick, and I can't think of many that rival it, has to be Papa Was A Rolling Stone https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nXiQtD5gcHU

    Do you pay bribes?

    In a perfect world, but we don't live in one. In this country, and many other, you can lose your life if you pursue a just cause against corruption. And to what ends in any case. The perpetrator gets transferred or promoted. If I'm ever charged with a crime I'd request the court/commission to...

    Do you pay bribes?

    If you end up in a high office it'll be assumed that you've paid your share of bribes :)

    Names

    Name changes used to bug me a bit, but nowadays I fully support it. I taught my kid to take responsibility for her actions, and that's how I now view name changes. Once fine cities have been ruined and municipalities bankrupted. This is adding a signature to a f****up - ANC was here.

    Do you pay bribes?

    So if the majority of the populace are of the opinion that a law is illegitimate, then it is so? Or only certain laws? Let's say the majority Hutu are of the opinion the minority Tutsi do not have the right to life. Or Zimbabweans decide that whites have no land rights. No need to answer of...

    Do you pay bribes?

    I do in principal, but it's a very fine line. BBBEE is illegitimate in my opinion because it's discriminatory, so paying a bribe, Watson style, to procure a contract could be justified.

    Do you pay bribes?

    Who gets to decide which laws are legitimate and which aren't? On this basis bribery can be justified if it suits the 2 parties in question.

    Do you pay bribes?

    You're a better man than I. Sorry to say if I had to choose between my family going hungry and paying a bribe, I will pay a thousand bribes before seeing them suffer. If it's just me it's a different story.

    Do you pay bribes?

    Have you paid, or will you pay a bribe when you stand to benefit? Let's say a traffic officer pulls you over for something that's clearly nonsense, will you give him the R50 or R100 he really wants or go through the hassle of accepting and fighting the fine? Or will you rather stand in line for...

    Chrome browser saves it this way for security reasons. I have to enter the cvv every time.

    Virtual Bank Cards

    Fortunately it's not the same as VCpay where you had to create a card for every transaction. Only the CVV number changes. It does so every hour if memory serves. I switched to using this for online purchases all the time. Works well and no real worry about fraud, although it's still possible I...

    What was the last Film you watched?

    Mostly streaming. There are better ways than torrents, but not quite free and also not quite legal.

    What was the last Film you watched?

    Amazon Prime mostly. But you'll need a VPN otherwise the pickings are sparse. If you haven't seen it, Infernal Affairs is available on Netflix. It's a gem.
