  @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

  I have now been on the phone to @Optus @optus_help for 2hrs and 51mins and am still waiting to speak to the 7th consultant just to replace a sim card that has not been delivered! This is my 3rd attempt to get my new service activated after previously spending 1.5hrs beforehand.

  @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.

  @BHolmesDev Nah you’re not quite right. Codex 100% of the times. I’ve literally ask to plan tasks so many times to outputs and codex and the ask both to choose what’s the best one. Literally 100% times both choose codex plan. It just doesn’t make sense to use Optus, you’ll get bugs and bad implementation all the time

  @joshmatz @erayyocak @Al_Grigor Plenty of recent ones from human config changes on ****: - Optus (Nov 2025): Wrong firewall upgrade process selected → nationwide outage, hours of downtime. - Cloudflare (Nov 18 2025): Single config error hit ~20% of global traffic, knocking out X, Uber, etc. - Asana (Feb 2025): Config change overloaded logs, causing server restarts and service disruption. Human error (esp. misconfigs) is still the #1 outage root cause industry-wide per Uptime Institute & ThousandEyes reports. AI isn't unique here.
