In the way that ADSL is an alternative to FTTP.

I hate Elon as much as anyone, but Skymuster is painful. I think the best latency I ever saw was around 650ms. On a bad day it could exceed 2000ms.

Every time you click on a link, the internet pauses for a second or two and then decides to load.

Looks like another heatwave at the end of the week. With the current forecast my coastal suburb is only seeing 30+ on Sunday, but western suburbs are expecting the heat on Friday and Saturday.

Is this likely our last bit of summer, or we will see some more heat as we approach April?

In the last six and ahead half years (since start of my budgeting), I’ve spent about $35k across Woolworths, Coles, and IGA (30/3.5/1.5).

Most of that time was as a single guy with terrible takeaway habits.

Every month or two I make the trek to the local bank to get some $1 coins for the laundry in our apartment complex.

Aside from that, I use Apple Pay for nearly all in-person transactions, PayID for sending money to friends and family, and my credit card online.

I'm approaching 30 and haven't actively carried cash in over a decade.

I moved into my current role nearly 2 years ago and was hired as remote.

I've moved a few times since then, and now live less than 10km from the office (<20 min on my motorbike). I'm still 100% WFH though, with my last visit being a single day in late October last year.

I dread the idea of returning to the daily commute and have kept that as a key criterion when turning down recruiters.
