OT: Sense8
by John K. 25 Jun '15

25 Jun '15

Netflix has released Sense8, if you have it, it should appear instantly in the trending now stream, if not, ask your local dvd 'guy', the torrents should be out soon. It features a Kenyan matatu driver among the 8. Hope it provides a boost to our local film/tv industry. Regards, John K.

Padded Laptop Backpacks / Wallets for new generation light weight laptops
by Thomas Kibui 25 Jun '15

25 Jun '15

Hi, Anyone out there selling padded laptop backpack bags that can fit the new generation light weight slim laptops (Lenovo X1s, Elitebook 820s etc) I am having issues with users being unable to properly protect them from physical damage. The hardware is mostly hard plastic and the bags available are not properly padded plus most of the bags are designed for bigger laptops. The slot where one inserts the laptop is therefore not tight enough to secure the laptop from moving around when inside the bag. Laptop wallets /envelop bags are also welcome ... Saidia .. email me the prices, pics , contacts and we could strike a deal .. TK

Re: KRA-Tax returns
by Hosea Kandie 24 Jun '15

KRA has the technology and this is not probably a tech issue but more to do with the complexity of the system, makes it hard to use. The security on it also annoys too and once you switch the "chicken security stuff" the whole thing gets fails. I don't understand what they would like to achieve by this complexity. Even if it spins on the fastest hardware, the issue is the same, as a user spent more time on a single issue, trying and trying, call KRA, them they try and have tried, then you are told please try again. This anomalies or unpredicted behaviors that jeopardize the correct functioning of the entire system. > Message: 3 > Date: Wed, 24 Jun 2015 10:16:24 +0300 > From: Isaac Kiplagat <isaac.kiplagat(a)gmail.com> > To: Oliver Ndegwa <olie.ndegwa(a)gmail.com>, Skunkworks Mailing List > <skunkworks(a)lists.my.co.ke> > Subject: > > Re: [Skunkworks] KRA-Tax returns > Message-ID: > <CACjSws= > iQzqirbnL4iD945Q00ZJFDxofnb5qi63AC1XGftbSPw(a)mail.gmail.com> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" > > Let us not be so excited with Technology and Cloud Services thing and > forget our data thiefs like US (US spies) and other foreign information > malpractitioners.
