Telkom.KE Resurrects - But in What Shape?

Telkom.KE Resurrects - But in What Shape?

 Orange is a nice colour but Orange.KE the phone company wasn't nice. They lived in their own cocoon far away in Andromeda Galaxy where they spoke a language called ^^^~~~'''''''````
Don't try to pronounce it. You need a rectangular beak to do that.

 Now that Telko.KE is back, hopefully they will return to the Milky Way and to Planet Earth. Further, hopefully they will adopt one of .KE's official languages. 

 They have a very full IN Tray. Take this issue for example: How on Planet Earth do you disable a daily Internet bundle subscription in Telkom's network? You innocently subscribe to a tariff(?) called Horror and true enough, its been a horrible saga ever since. You buy 100/- worth of credit. The Horror creature eats 49/- and the X-monster eats 49/-. You are left with 2 bob airtime!  What on EARTH is this?

 Is is a new form of BATIKA betting game? Gory! as the English say. What Horror is this? Is their marketing guy/girl from Central where they have lamdadism? So Holla and Horror are considered equivalent?

 Take me to Earth pronto. This Andromeda galaxy is creepy.

So how do you UNSUBSCRIBE?

Believe it or not, it's actually possible. After trying email, Twirer, Teregram, Whazap and all the others for a whole week, I finally managed to extract the following very valuable information (at 98/- per day, the loss to your personal wealth works out to be close to 2 million bob over your working life not taking into account down time, ISIL and other galaxial effects):

1. Dial *544# on your Telkom.KE line (formerly known as Orange)
2. Select Option 3 (data bundles)
3. Select Option 5 (XL Offers) - don't make the financially fatal error of selecting Option 1
4. Select Option 1 (XL Daily 400...) - apparently the other options do not self-renew
5. Select  Option 2 (Unsubscribe) then confirm (1) and you are done

Horror Story

For Holla (Horror?), it goes as follows:
1. *544#
2. Option 5 (Horror!)
3. Option 5 (unsubscribe)
4. Option 1, 2, and 3 in sequence if you can't remember which Horror Story you subscribed to else chose 1 OR 2 OR 3 to unsubscribe.
Beyond the humour (humus?) and above everything, the Messiah is coming soon. Prepare well

How to Set Up Youtube for Live Streaming - Part II [Multicamera Live-Streaming Events]

In order to live-stream  with multiple cameras with Youtube live, you need to set up at least one event . Then add cameras to this event. Each camera is associated with a stream . A stream consists of the address of the streaming server and the stream name/key as we saw in setting up smartphones for streaming and setting up Youtube for simple live streaming .  Once the events, streams and cameras are set up, you switch to the Live Control Room from where you can preview the event, monitor the live stream through video and statistics (analytics) and turn off streaming. The Control Room interface includes an indication of stream health - whether the server is receiving data from you encoder and at what speed. The steps involved in setting up for multi-camera streaming are as follows: 1. Sign in to a verified Youtube account . Verification requires that you have observed the rules for Youtube accounts and have not infringed on copyright in the la...

XUBUNTU PANEL AND WINDOW BUTTONS HAVE DISAPEARED

 XUBUNTU PANELS Xubuntu can be quite troublesome when you shutdown and restart. Desktop panels may disappear as well as window minimize/maximise/close buttons.  The panel is equivalent to the Windows 10 Start menu that provides access to applications. TO MAKE THE PANEL REAPPEAR Open a terminal by right-clicking on the desktop then enter the following: xfwm4 --replace TO RECOVER THE PANEL Open a terminal by right-clicking on the desktop then enter the following: xfCE-panel --restart  That is all .
