  @goodfoodgal 3 people allegedly die from Optus 000 crash. No amount of reports, investigations and enquiries. 1000s die or disabled because of mRNA vaccination. 🦗🦗 is all we get. Like Epstein - the graft and corruption is so broad and deep, the only solution is for the system to be renewed.

  @SkyNewsAust @OMGTheMess Didn't have the guts to attend the Optus inquiry, because "she wasn't obligated". Kind of like Albanese saying "we weren't asked" on the Hormuz help. Doing the right thing just doesn't come natural for Labor.

  @boomerangmadi @metrotrains Cellular DAS for Telstra, Optus and Vodafone to provide cellular on all 3, it also hosts the train signalling GSM-R 1800 network too.

  @MattBobBrad1 That was on the weekend tho. First game here we had 45,000 at Optus. That was on the weekend. There’s probably 16 maybe 17,000. That’s not to bad. Game should have been tomorrow or Sunday. Oh well. Most important thing is get a result

  @johnkanga @RacingPedigrees Sometimes it just comes down to the provider in the area. I use Amaysim and never had a problem at country tracks, they use Optus network.

  @Optus left for another provider because you left me on a higher plan than new plans. No second chance, screw you like you screwed me. Bye bye. NEVER AGAIN.

  @Optus It’s an insane state of affairs that Optus now has to specify “but this time we didn’t let any of our customers pass away by denying them the right to call emergency services”. Crazy that no other telco has ever needed to clarify that

  @CheapshotDai115 @CallofDuty @Treyarch Okay so if you add an Optus skin that’s completely fair? There’s Optus creatures in BO3 zombies so technically it counts… What about space suits? Moon was set in space so technically that counts… We’ve had ghosts in the campaign so how about ghost skins? See the problem…
