Hahaha I don’t eat breakfast cause I am a poor pleb.

They absolutely should. The Presidential system is one step too close to a dictatorship.

And they wonder why they are becoming commodities

Good. Show your true colours. Hope this power hungry maniac ends up in jail.

Glad he doesn’t have blanket immunity as a president

Has the president accepted the resolution?

I’m sure AWS and Azure would like a word

Or Biden releases it as a matter of national security? Dems have no balls.

A mile is nothing … what the actual fuck? I used to be gone for hours god knows where.

Access. The Rolodex. The ability to not have a conscious. Those are what are valued.

That is simply not true. What you get is standards. Standards bodies exist. In this most recent debacle all that is needed is compatible bands and VoLTE to make it compatible.

If these two exist, then it works.

Don’t listen to me, here is a reference. https://www.whistleout.com.au/MobilePhones/Guides/Will-my-phone-work-in-Australia-carrier-network-frequencies

How do you think spec sheets work? Engineers rely on data a d there are industry standards. That is the whole point of documentation. Even little motors and resistors have documentation that is relied on. You really think this is not documented accurately?

You really think that Optus is intensely checking and verify every device they sell? They rely on the documentation! They are a retailer of phones.

The way that Aussies think is always interesting. I find a lot of people bend over backwards to justify the reasons for companies. Instead of standing up for customers these arguments seem to look like a shining example of “out of scope” decisions. I have seen in too many corporate meetings and decision makers.

Read the article. Optus is not bothering checking. Just closing stuff off.

It’s not a bunch of a large number. It is a set number of phones from well known providers from a few countries.

Basically no one wanted to pay for one Business Analyst to read documentation and make phone calls to providers. For a program that has years and millions in it.

Or worse, cause it is out of scope

Or the worst, so they could sell the “buy from the provider” bullshit

This isn’t regulatory. It’s Optus deciding that if they didn’t sell the handset or its foreign bought it is will be blocked. Because of reasons…

And don’t ask questions because software is hard, and telecom is too technical for the plebs.

It’s nothing but a blatant cash grab hidden in a thin veneer of technical babble because it’s tough for modern journalists to question engineering.

About time First Amendment was respected

That is awesome.

The bigger they are the more they will tempted to become billionaires.

Their greed will make them inhospitable to people. Lemmy will be here when (not if) that happens

Ah yes. Merrick Garland sleeping at the job for the 1000th time.
