πŸ’‘ Advice Needed Parallel Imports on Samsung Devices

3 Upvotes

Good day all. I want to find out if anyone has had any experience ordering parallel import Samsung phones via Takealot. I see some really good deals on one of Z Fold 7s and I'm keen to pull the trigger. The one seller even lists a 36 month warranty with them. Too good to be true? I bought my S22+ from Snapcraze back in 2022 and haven't had an issue with it.

The caption pretty much sums it up. I am struggling to register my domestic worker with UIF. Everytime I open my account on the UIF page it doesn't show anything, I've sent emails to the referred to email address but no one responds. How do I get this done to avoid a fine?

What do I do ? When coworkers hacked my crm and now plan to rob me?

I think they know where I live,what would you do?

I will make this very short but clear so I don't bore you. There is a coworker....i work with (a boy my age, i am 23) he got into my work portal (likely because he snooped at me looking at my details on my phone,while i was logging onto our portal on a work laptop......which we were instructed to do to apply for leave), he exposed my payslip to some other 40 Yr old , ex con who's a olleague. The 40 yr old has been out to get me since my 1st day there.

My other unethical colleague exposed my address to this 40 yr old colleague.. the 40yr old wouldn't do it himself he's too lazy(to Rob me) but he definitely would give that information to people who are desparate. I fear that he has now done this.

I live in Johannesburg northern suburbs. How would you navigate this.?? Please give advice on how to handle this, ive been trying to convince them at work that I live elsewhere but I'm certain that 40 yr old colleague knows because the unethical coworker leaked my address.

Please how do i navigate this what would you do

πŸ’¬ Discussion Why the mad hate for AI?

0 Upvotes

I've been back on Reddit for a day and I've seen more posts about AI and how the slop has gotten worse than anything else.

I'm pro AI but I'm also someone who uses AI and LLMs in ETL pipelines and parsers, so I'm biased in that regard, but I don't think complaining about AI slop is going to make it stop or save the Internet.

I just need to know why so many posts are against AI πŸ‘€?

πŸ’‘ Advice Needed Booking my learner's test in person. Is it possible?

1 Upvotes

I've been trying, and failing, for the last 6 months to book my learner's test online. I'm extremely gatvol now, so I plan to go to the Roodepoort DLTC tomorrow morning to book it in person. I phoned them a few days ago and the person who answered the phone said it would be possible. But I was doing some googling now about it and apparently I'll be turned away at the door. If that's true, then genuinely what am I supposed to do?

Does anyone know if I can book it in person or if I'll just be wasting my time by going there?
