  @Rory_Flanagan We absolutely have trash stadiums Mcg, Optus and accor are all poor for rectangle sports. Allianz, Suncorp and marvel are better but don't fit the standard for later games.

  Also, fix your inferior network @Optus. But knowing them, blame the end user. One whole hour and no connection.

  @TheJoeySwoll No way this **** **** has made its way to you guys? This is some desperate **** in Perth who stages these things with her dad. She spams the same video at Optus Stadium thinking old people are looking at her but it’s just her dad. Don’t give it attention

  AI helped me save $270 a year tonight. Not by doing anything fancy. It just helped me survive the telco maze. The Optus bill started at $251.30/month. After a long support chat, it dropped to $228.80/month. That is $22.50/month saved. $270/year. The real win was not the discount. The real win was AI helping me: - Ask better questions - Check the maths - Avoid payout traps - Push past the first “best offer” - Get the final number confirmed in writing They first offered a small plan downgrade. Then we asked about loyalty. Then retention. Then the numbers did not add up. AI spotted the issue. One plan change had not actually been processed. So, we pushed again. Final result: Old bill: $251.30/month New bill: $228.80/month Yearly saving: $270 AI did not magically save me money. It just stopped me from giving up while the telco maze tried to win. Next target: Telstra internet.

  @eevblog I have both, NBN service stability is far less than Starlink's, so it is my backup. I could probably push traffic through both, did that with Telstra and Optus cable modems back in the day, but Starlink is so fast I haven't needed to bother.

  @bexcran IPv6 is massive in India, first class support by JIO. There are carriers that hold on to IPv4-only. Australia’s Optus is one. They had massive outages and security breaches. Lack of IPv6 support is a sign of systemic issues in the organisation.
