  Robot Cave (@RobotCaveCom) reported 4 minutes ago

  Orbital 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?

  Australia switched off its 3G network in 2024, since then Jazz IR roaming stopped working in Australia. Community raised it many times with Jazz, to always receive a reply to adjust network settings to no avail. Please talk with Singtel/Optus to restore Jazz IR in Australia.

  @KleinRevd Based on the screenshots provided, it's not clear that the issue is related to the Optus network. If you would like us to take a closer look or if there's any additional information you'd like to provide, please send us a DM, and we'll be happy to investigate further. -San

  Had a look at umpiring in all Freo home @AFL games this year at Optus v interstate teams. Worst free kick count is minus 3 v Blues and Suns. Rd 9 v Hawks was 17-17. Hopefully this means we don't need to worry about the umpires but Suns got the 1st 3 frees last year. #foreverfreo

  The same ppl who are praising the Gold Coast Suns for getting Scott Pendlebury were praising them for getting Christian Petracca. Two years ago Touk Miller, Noah Anderson & Matt Rowell led them to a finals win over Fremantle at Optus Cohesion fail 101 x 2?

  @scrowder Are you literally quoting him like he was correct? Like when people like the police or f b I do an investigation or when the people help with an investigation, they don't ask questions to get them to the next question? I feel like your main purposefully optus
