  @TeamHinduUnited The BS that they spread that they converted to Christianity because of caste Optus just Bull-Crap! They converted to Christianity because they are greedy and have absolutely no principles or self-respect. This has always been the case.

  @Defiantclient2 @Telstra Well, sounds like Optus and TPG have realized that putting these areas on the coverage map is just going to cause more trouble than its worth.

  Ffs @Optus, sort your **** out. I'm sick of paying for ****** coverage less than 40km from the CBD.

  @SocialPiranha3 And then, doubtless, gave you a fake name and position number when you called his threat out I had an incident where an Optus operator made all manner of promises but, when I called back, no notes, no names, fake ID and number Telco ombudsman became involved

  @JackieChan87805 @LeagueScenePod @BulldogRitchie In case you didn’t notice, you’re the one being dumb as Perth clearly see the importance in playing all their games at HBF Park. If you can get every game sold out, then it puts pressure on the government into funding the joint. Moving games to Optus doesn’t help that.

  @DarkWebInformer Australia since Optus data breach, has been the best place to do hacking. Seriously, companies here are dumb as ****, people in power that should know better, have IQ of a potato 🤦 Idk how they get hired, Australians data will continue being leaked left and right 🤦

  @outbreezyWC SACA has the rights to Adelaide Oval till the end of March or something - so that makes sense given the issues last year when SA had the home Sheffield Shield final and Optus has the Matilda’s playing there in a day or two

  @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.

  I am too lazy to proof read and edit the below from grok, we had a chat in the car and below is the direct output for a post from grok, 85% my intent but could use some polish… (it gave me 3x image prompts, images from grok attached are also not proofed.) - enjoy: Why Starlink Roam Falls Flat in Australia (And How to Fix It) Honest opinion: Starlink Roam is brilliant on paper—$80 a month for 100GB priority data, perfect for caravans, motorhomes, or pros working on the go in the outback. But in reality? It’s poop for mobile use. Australia’s endless trees, dense bushland, and tunnels (think Bruce Highway or any regional drive) block the line-of-sight to satellites constantly. You’re crawling along at zero bars half the time, burning data elsewhere or offline entirely. Great for static campsites, useless in motion. The glaring hardware oversight: No LTE/cellular failover. Starlink Mini (or next-gen) should’ve shipped with an eSIM slot for Australian carriers like Telstra or Optus. When sats fail, auto-switch to 4G/5G local network as a hotspot—seamless, like your phone. Caveat: ACMA spectrum rules (IMT bands for terrestrial mobile) might need carrier partnerships, but it’s doable—Telstra/Optus already partner with Starlink for direct-to-device sat-to-phone using those bands. NBN fixed-wireless modems do exactly this: SIM failover when fibre/cable drops, approved under existing regs. If it’s green for NBN, it should be for Starlink Roam. Pricing fix for AU market: Base $19 add-on for up to 10% cellular failover (10GB on the $80 plan), covering Starlink’s wholesale data costs. Double to $38 for 100% cellular option if you’re in eternal tree hell. Keeps it affordable, competitive with eSIM hotspots, and actually usable. Starlink, take notes—Gen3 Mini or beyond, make it hybrid. Aussie travellers deserve better. What do you reckon? Roll it out!
