What is Sender ID and why is it important for SMS?
All those attention, everyone. We are rolling, Stephen. Rolling. Check. New Australian government regulations require that I advise Stephen that the tax changes on July 1 were huge. Also, podcast rules have changed. You need to explicitly let people know you're recording. Didn't you know about that? No. Yeah, it's not a Jim Chalmers thing. It's more a – Trevor Longfield? Yes. I don't know. I was trying to think of another member of parliament. No sneaky – Richard Marle seems like the kind of guy that we'd want to know. You know what I'm saying? You think so? Yeah. Penny Wong maybe? Penny wouldn't have done a podcast in her life. She also wouldn't know what one is. Yeah.
How have Australian telcos updated their coverage maps?
Hi, Penny. She's out there representing us to the rest of the world. How good's that? It's just who you want out there representing you.
Two blokes talking politics.
That's the private feed this week.
It is a bit political. It was a lot of political, wasn't it? We dip into our finances too, or Trevor's finances, and how he's doing very well.
I don't think I want to publish that now.
He's doing very, very well. Wants to pay himself more money, folks. Does that mean you were underpaid before?
I think so. Or do you think you've just risen to a new tax bracket? No, I think I've been underpaid for a year and a half. A year and a half.
Okay.
Yeah. And I just went, you know what? I deserve more.
What impact do the new coverage maps have on consumers?
There you go. Well, you're the boss, mate.
You make the decision. Beautiful. There was no negotiation involved. God love him. The old man used to say, son, when you run your own business, make sure you pay yourself first. I said, done. Good call. Yeah.
Good call. Well played. I did pay myself twice this month, though, I will say. Hello. Also, we had to delete all of the transactions that had been programmed to pay the wages, right? And so I put them in. So this morning at 4.30 or whatever, I logged on and I'm like, ah, didn't get paid. I must have said it. And I looked, the schedule payment was next one was first of all, so I stuffed that up. So I did them manually. And then at 8 o'clock or something, I got another notification of a payment coming to my account. I went, oh, no, what's happened here? And they had then processed. So I'm like, oh, now I've got to go and reverse half of it. Oh, man. I should have put faith in the scheduled system. Yeah, you're a victim of your own efficiency.
I know. Apparently banks do process stuff early but don't put it in the system. Anyway. Yeah, that's a whole other story. Stephen, it's a pretty big week. Big week. 700 episodes, mate.
Yeah, thank you.
Hold on.
I was wondering where you're going with that. Thank you very much. Yep. Tech Guide episode 700 in the can. Do you think you'll ever catch two blokes? I'm on the trail, mate. I'm on the trail. The gap seems to continuously be 739 episodes. Might start doing two a week and still catch up. That'd be hilarious. Imagine that. Hey, I'm beating two blokes. Hang on, that's me. But no, no, all good. 700, some good prizes. If you want to get a chance to have a listen, win. You've got to listen to win, though.
You can't just win.
You've got to listen to win. Yeah, you can't just mickey it up. You've got to wait and get the code words and strategically put them right near the end. So you've got to listen through. You've got to find it. I suppose now that I've given it up, you've got to go to the end. Is it the very end? No. Okay. Not the very, very end.
Did you put all the code words at the end? No. Okay. Oh, no. It's a code phrase. Oh, you idiot.
Yeah.
You should have made it like one at the start, one in the middle, one at the end. Yeah, I should have. Come on, mate. We've got to have promotional meetings before you do this stuff.
People are going to listen through the whole show anyway, mate. It's just compelling stuff. Oh, right. You've got to look at the transcript and go quickly to the code words. There you go. Anyway. But you need to also listen after the instructions and what you need to do. Yeah. It's very specific.
Very specific. Yeah. Very specific.
How are Apple’s product prices changing and why?
But anyway, thank you.
But you don't look a day over 699 episodes.
