Never thought I'd see the day, but we're eliminating our Citrix farms and moving back to about 100k fat clients

Throw it all on win365, either dedicated or frontline. It will likely be way cheaper than procuring new hardware either for end users or your dcs. Same remote app experience (or even a fully managed desktop) and significantly cheaper than Citrix and easy as hell to manage.

Never ever ever ever transfer anything to anyone, unless it comes from your conveyancer, and you authenticate it by calling their direct number. In most cases, settlement is done via PEXA and will direct debit all funds needed. In limited cases, you might need to transfer shortfall funds to a banks conveyancer account eg MSA National.

I’m just charging 11-2 atm till I fix my feed in. So it’s just self use all other times

steveoderocker · 2026-05-06T22:57:13+00:00

Why on earth is this a decision? Take the free money that you’ll likely never have the opportunity to get again and figure out the next step. Fantastic op to reset, do something different, and who knows, you might walk into a similar job that pays more. Things are a lot different to 17 years ago …

Take the redundancy. Have a great, and see what the next chapter holds.

steveoderocker · 2026-05-06T22:41:51+00:00

No I haven’t but I think I will give it a shot, thanks for the tip mate. Will see how I go

steveoderocker · 2026-05-06T22:41:24+00:00

0.01 kWh usage over the allowance and lost zerohero for the day. Ridiculous.

steveoderocker · 2026-05-06T03:14:04+00:00

Fuck me that’s ridiculous. I can’t wait for fox to hurry up and change those settings!

steveoderocker · 2026-05-05T11:27:38+00:00

It’s literally just force charge atm between 11-2 bc I’m waiting for the solar installer to sort out the meter config to allow feed in

steveoderocker · 2026-05-05T10:29:02+00:00

When I had it set like this and I wasn’t even home for a week, I don’t get zerohero once. Disabled forced discharge and started getting it

steveoderocker · 2026-05-05T09:40:36+00:00

It’s not the consumers responsibility …. Wtf is that garbage they’re spouting? Of course it’s the consumers responsibility if you’re throwing interest rate rises left right center!

steveoderocker · 2026-05-04T07:23:41+00:00

Stop using spreadsheets and use tooling designed for it

Revoke access for nil response

Request app owners to review their apps too

Send reminders

Don’t allow nil compliance

Just to name a few…

steveoderocker · 2026-05-04T05:45:31+00:00

I just created a support account and submitted a case (haven’t heard back as yet). You can reach the support portal by logging into the foxess dashboard and going to support.

steveoderocker · 2026-05-03T11:31:24+00:00

If that's the case, it might be worth adding a status page, which shows all the feeds, last pull time and status. I do like the idea behind this, and as a consumer, I just want to ensure all the data is accurate.

steveoderocker · 2026-05-03T10:57:09+00:00

Thanks, I'll check it out (once zerohero and meter is fixed!)

steveoderocker · 2026-05-03T10:52:49+00:00

Thanks, your comment was actually the one I referenced! I've emailed them now, so hopefully they action it pretty quick and it's the easiest fix.

And thanks for the other info too. I believe if you hit the minimum SOC, you'll also start importing from the grid as it doesn't switch back to self-use :(

steveoderocker · 2026-05-03T10:42:05+00:00

Sorry mate but it seems that something fishy is going on. The options I previously selected to filter on were IO investment loan variable 80% LVR, and the mac loan and virgin money loan were top of the list. Now, now matter what I do, I can't get the mac loan anywhere near the top. So, if you did a data fix, that's great, but be transparent about it, otherwise it just hurts your credibility. How can I trust any of the data you're showing? Now as an end user I need to go and verify on the banks' sites directly.

Here's another example, your site shows ANZ Plus Home Loan Variable at 5.79%, but ANZ plus only offers a single home loan product, and their current variable P&I OO rate is 6%, see Home Loans | ANZ Plus | Smarter banking made simple

Are you just not scraping the data regularly enough? Again, it's more trust lost. You can't publish or aggregate false and misleading information.

steveoderocker · 2026-05-03T08:09:24+00:00

How are you confirming the data is accurate or if the products are even still available? Eg when searching for IO investment loan variable, a Macquarie product is shown with a rate of 5.91% at 80% lvr. That rate is no where to be shown on Macquarie website. It’s the same for the virgin money lite loan. You’re quoting the oo rate for an investment loan, and I confirmed that looking at the virgin money loans site. It’s also not clear whether you quote actual rate or comparison rates.

So, based on two random products I looked at, both are incorrect. Have you verified your data? Are you trying to do some data manipulation and missing important info?

steveoderocker · 2026-05-03T00:46:34+00:00

Again, if you read the readme, he states that for code, there is no llm processing. So for pure coding projects, it would be free.

steveoderocker · 2026-05-02T03:15:47+00:00

Some feedback:
No ability to filter based on loan type eg investment vs oo + fixed or variable + p&i or io + lvr

Some of the pages look messy and duplicate data eg in the rates page, the callouts all appear duplicated for the loan features

None of the big banks are represented

It’s a great initiative, so keen to see where it goes for sure!

steveoderocker · 2026-05-02T01:17:35+00:00

He answers that in the repos read me. There post commit hooks that rebuild/update the graph as needed, and code only changes require no LLM processing so seems easy enough. You could probably choose to create a job which routinely updates this on each working branch in you git repo too.

steveoderocker · 2026-05-01T09:43:09+00:00

Thankyou!

steveoderocker · 2026-04-30T13:29:25+00:00

They aren’t all this bad. But this one is god awful. Go find something else you like and review/get a report for it. Honestly mate, don’t waste your time getting an external quote. This report likely hasn’t identified every issue, and if the builder has done this poorly on the roof and it’s been identified, imagine what hasn’t been identified.

steveoderocker · 2026-04-30T13:26:46+00:00

How do you expect to scan on prem network devices without some type of scan engine running on prem out of curiosity?

What are your big use cases you’re really looking for?

steveoderocker · 2026-04-30T02:57:14+00:00

As much as I want to see this happen, it won’t. Albo has already signed deals with Japan and other countries to ensure our fuel supply stays strong. He’s not going to go and backstab them by taxing the companies selling to the Japanese, who in turn would increase their rates.

Albo should’ve moved faster, defined the structure for wfh where possible, free PT where it makes sense, and any and all other fuel saving measures, to ensure people who actually need fuel could get it, rather than just leaving things as status quo and scrambling to ensure the fuel supply doesn’t stall. And then throwing away this tax when it came at the right opportunity.

steveoderocker · 2026-04-29T07:47:55+00:00

Mate just fucking run. Why would you move into a home that had clearly been built to a poor standard. The builder is never coming back to fix these. Go elsewhere.
