  @Optus zero network connectivity (no calls, text or data) in Wonthaggi and the wider Bass Coast. Any update on when the network will be back?

  @chrisopotamia I only know to check my emails about the next level in the Optus cyber attack saga by your tweets. I too need a new license it seems. Thank you for your service.

  @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.

  one of the main things preventing the Dockers from turning Optus Stadium into a “fortress” is West Coast being historically bad. it’s actually unintentionally sabotaging Freo because teams gain so much confidence when they play here against the Eagles

  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!

  I really rate my experience working for a serviced office, what feels like a lifetime ago. I was a senior EA promoted to a virtual office manager. We had to learn some fundamental IT troubleshooting as we were our own ISP (using the Optus network).

  Optus offered me Mydata 5gb, they'll explain to you... bargain price, and there is unlimited I been a customer since they've began in Brisbane, and I used Optus since then. Even phoned and explained to name it Optus. because of the page, they needed a business, asking suggestions

  @LawrenceWongST Lawerence if you get us some diesel I will continue to overlook what an abysmally ********* mobile & internet service provider Optus is.

  @rameshsrivats Ahmedabad deserves to host a final, but not every final. In the first place, a 100k capacity stadium was built there only because of the Gujarat connection. The stadium looks ugly with its colors. Had it been built like an Optus /MCG, deserved to host all finals. MCG is their sporting capital, hence hosts all finals. Ahmedabad is second tier to Mumbai, Calcutta, Chennai, Hyderabad, Bangalore, Delhi. ( Delhi has an ugly stadium. Bang is very small and the worst track) @BCCI Finals must rotate.

  @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.

  @FOXFOOTY @GerardWhateley No problem with Gather Round staying in SA but to say it wouldn’t be the same in any other state is completely facetious. It could be easily replicated in WA, imagine a game at the WACA then a walk over the bridge to another game at Optus. Play Freo at Freo Oval for fun even.

  @RFC_Centre One thing I found interesting watching the game at Optus. Time after time Sonsie was manning two players when the dockers were coming out of defence and usually stuck between both of them. There was never any backup from another team mate. Other than one error he had a good game.
