💉💉💉 Granville in FNQ 😷 (@Granville4879) reported from Cairns, Queensland@toninicho I am now, seriously, thinking of changing my carrier after years of being with Optus Problem is Telstra cost me a first full money last time I was with them and I dropped Vodaphone over their poor customer service.

Bryn, Muppet Enthusiast (@Brynbikes) reportedTrain line to Optus stadium is down. Good luck, Freo fans....

Geoff (@GeoffPAus) reported@Optus The issue we have is that OPRUS has a history of being hacked and not doing the right thing by its customers so why would I trust you with storing my credit card information and deducting whatever you want? Optus SHOULD MAINTAIN THE OPTION TO ALLOW ITS CUSTOMERS TO POST PAY…

b (@_benny4) reported@chdyctt I cancelled a contract with Optus 10 years ago due to their relocated contact centre. Was awful, but Telstra ended being cheaper believe it or not. In saying that, communications need to be explained easy & not written by AI and signed off.

Robot Cave (@RobotCaveCom) reportedOrbital robotics is quietly becoming a real commercial business, not a DARPA demo. Northrop's Mission Robotic Vehicle just launched on a Falcon 9 with two robotic arms and three detachable Mission Extension Pods. In 2027, it will autonomously dock with the Optus satellite at ~27,000 miles up and bolt on a pod to extend its life by 6 years. The Optus bird launched in 2009, designed for 15 years. It's not broken. It just needs propellant. That's the whole thesis here. The business model shift is what stands out. Operators buy and own the MEPs permanently attached to their spacecraft. That frees the MRV to keep servicing other vehicles, more like a mobile repair truck than a dedicated tug. Two MEVs have already delivered 10 years of combined life extension across three customers. The unit economics are starting to close. Autonomous proximity ops at GEO velocities, with no margin for error, is the hard part. Does the MRV's dual-arm approach give it enough dexterity to handle satellites it wasn't originally designed to service?

Romire 🇦🇺 (@RomireTV) reported@AshConnell Well Telstra and Optus both had system network failures, and they cant even take responsibility for it

Andry Dina (@andrydina7) reportedEveryone leaves Cursor for refactors. They lose the 3x speed. One founder shipped $12k MRR in nine days using only Cursor + Grok 4.6. Daily Workflow starts inside the file. Open the file inside Cursor. Feed the exact three-line Prompt Patterns straight to inline Grok. Rewrite only the current sentence before moving on. Most still paste stack traces into ChatGPT and kill the flow. That alone eats 30% of refactor time. Grok 4.6 beats Claude Optus on large refactors because you never exit the codebase. Counterintuitive tip: stay sentence-by-sentence instead of dumping the whole function. What slowed your last refactor most?

John Merchant (@_JohnMerchant) reported@central01000011 Depends on the network, Telstra and Optus are great. But I have no idea about Vodafone.
