  Somehow today, the models (sonnet, optus, haiku) are not working properly or very slow. It even reply me in Chinese 好的 when all conversations are in English. Omg. The only working model seems to be fable 5. Anything happening in the background @claudeai?

  🚨 SINGTEL CUTS CEO PAY AFTER MAJOR NETWORK OUTAGES. Singtel has cut CEO Yuen Kuan Moon’s pay after a year marked by high‑profile network failures in Singapore and Australia. The company’s annual report shows his compensation fell 16.9% to S$6.8 million for the financial year ending March 31. The reduction came even as Singtel posted stronger profits, reflecting the board’s push for accountability after outages disrupted emergency services and affected hundreds of thousands of users. The pay cut follows several serious incidents, including a 14‑hour Optus outage in Australia that hit Triple Zero emergency calls and back‑to‑back disruptions in Singapore that left about 600,000 customers offline. Regulators opened investigations, and Optus accepted all recommendations from an independent review. Singtel says it is focused on restoring trust, improving reliability, and strengthening its operations. The company remains confident about its broader outlook despite regional economic uncertainty.

  I'm currently running a backup SIM in my phone. The number has never been put online, anywhere. And yet I got two spam calls today. That ain't a bot dialing random numbers. The number was recently transferred from Optus to Dodo. My number leaked out somewhere, how?

  @Optus you are most annoyingly difficult business to deal with. 15 years a customer and being treated like joke comedy routine for two days to change an internet plan. Then they ring you after work while driving saying can read the code back from the app.

  Regional reality check: Telstra = service. Optus = maybe. Vodafone = forget it. If only one network works outside the cities, that’s not a market — that’s a monopoly.
