[15:24:57] daniel2 KnownSyntax: man, the bucket for our raise budget is shit this period.

[15:26:12] KnownSyntax Rip

[15:26:36] KnownSyntax No idea on what my first raise or bonus will look like here, since the end of the FY isn’t until April 1st

[15:28:01] daniel2 KnownSyntax: Honestly, I have 4 employees (+1 contract), but I don't plan on giving 2 of them any raises as they just started August.

[15:28:17] daniel2 The other 2 I have an idea on how I want to distribute it fairly.

[15:28:36] KnownSyntax At least no layoffs yet right?

[15:28:55] KnownSyntax Or orgs getting wiped out like the outbound call center had happen

[15:30:01] daniel2 KnownSyntax: they went on a hiring freeze instead of laying people off.

[15:31:47] daniel2 KnownSyntax: you went to Sony, right?

[15:32:54] KnownSyntax Correct

[15:33:05] daniel2 Hows that going for ya?

[15:33:11] KnownSyntax They aren’t even count hiring freezes here yet lol

[15:33:38] KnownSyntax It's good, work is solid and I basically have meetings with the CTO & COO since I’m a direct org from them

[15:33:47] daniel2 Of Sony??

[15:33:53] KnownSyntax Lots of stuff to do but it's all good

[15:33:55] daniel2 I figure these are some high up people

[15:33:58] KnownSyntax Yeah lol

[15:34:06] daniel2 Or is it Sony of America?

[15:34:11] daniel2 Isn't Sony a japanese brand?

[15:34:12] KnownSyntax Sony Electronics

[15:34:15] daniel2 ahh

[15:34:20] KnownSyntax Sony of America is a different Op-Co

[15:34:31] KnownSyntax But I talk regularly with Japan as well

[15:34:35] daniel2 What is Playstation related to?

[15:34:40] KnownSyntax Mostly all of them speak English

[15:34:46] KnownSyntax Sony Interactice Entertainment

[15:34:54] KnownSyntax *Interactive

[15:34:58] daniel2 Ahh

[15:35:07] daniel2 I might get the PSVR2

[15:35:20] daniel2 But then again, I already have an HTC Vive Pro 2.

[15:35:28] daniel2 With the Valve Index Controllers.

[15:36:11] KnownSyntax I was kinds hoping for some PS5 discounts but it's too in demand for that. Otherwise I can get games, consoles, etc. fairly cheap lol

[15:36:18] daniel2 I was gonna ask if you got discounts.

[15:36:32] daniel2 I've had a PS5 since July of 2021.

[15:36:42] KnownSyntax Although on my side the TVs are like 50% off, so the top of line TV is like 4-5K (84”)

[15:36:52] daniel2 I have an LG C2.

[15:36:58] daniel2 Its a great OLED 77" TV

[15:37:02] KnownSyntax I am still rocking my PS4 lol, in the office they have the whole Playstation floor locked down

[15:37:03] daniel2 I paid 2500 for it.

[15:37:18] KnownSyntax I have a cheapo 55”, need to upgrade soon lol

[15:37:23] daniel2 I've been trying to start a war with Nintendo man.

[15:38:09] daniel2 So I bought my daughter a Nintendo Switch OLED for Christmas, but she can't even use it. Why? Because her former stepfather controls her Nintendo account and Nintendo won't transfer me the account, or even unlock it for her. She has 5 years of save data, and over 1500 worth of purchases on that account.

[15:38:18] daniel2 So I've been trying to get their attention on Twitter.

[15:38:35] KnownSyntax That makes no sense. Nintendo is really the only one locked down like that sadly

[15:38:39] daniel2 Like he was abusive to her, thats why he won't transfer me the account, I've asked him several times.

[15:38:53] KnownSyntax Which makes sense, they are highly focused on kids and parental controls - just annoying in situations like that though

[15:39:01] daniel2 https://twitter.com/y2kbadbug/status/1617242459695906817?cxt=HHwWgoDU3drczPEsAAAA

[15:39:15] daniel2 Yeah, I mean I was offering to send them court documents, IDs, birth certificates, anything.

[15:39:41] daniel2 I fucking scalped that switch too, cause its the Pokemon Violet/Scarlett limited edition OLED console.

[15:40:36] KnownSyntax Do they have a number you could call? Or is it all support case/ticket related?

[15:58:51] daniel2 KnownSyntax: I tried.

[15:58:59] daniel2 Even after escalation the guy was a complete dickhead

[15:59:20] daniel2 and wouldn't even help me do anything, like her account is entirely locked, she can't even login, and since there is no email on file, she can't reset her password.

[16:40:57] KnownSyntax That's stupid as hell

[16:41:14] KnownSyntax Especially if you can send in documents normally they are cool after they receive them

[18:52:43] daniel2 KnownSyntax: Yeah, they said they literally have no way in their system to fix this.

[18:52:56] daniel2 Taking how much money is invested and tied to the account, that's not an excuse.

[19:51:10] Jobe <+daniel2> KnownSyntax: Yeah, they said they literally have no way in their system to fix this.

[19:51:12] Jobe thats bullshit

[19:51:32] Jobe the correct answer is "the person helping you at that point does not have sufficient means with which to fix it"

[19:52:31] Jobe daniel2, 2 options: 1) demand unlock or FULL refund for ALL purchases, 2) take it to the press "Nintendo locked childs account at request of abusive step father"

[19:52:39] Jobe Nintendo really HATE negative press

[19:52:44] Jobe tis why they love DMCAs

[19:55:17] daniel2 omg man

[19:55:19] Jobe and ofc if the article is 100% accurate, Nintendo cant even sue it away

[19:55:23] daniel2 I got called an Incel on Twitter.

[19:55:27] daniel2 I damn near passed out laughing.

[19:55:31] daniel2 Nobody has ever called me that before.

[19:56:57] Jobe honestly, ive given up trying to understand what incel means

[19:59:16] daniel2 lmao

[19:59:17] daniel2 https://twitter.com/y2kbadbug/status/1617551286131642369

[19:59:19] daniel2 That was the comment

[19:59:23] daniel2 Twitter is sure fun today

[20:00:15] Jobe I mean, many words used as insults, like incel, woke etc... tend to change definition depending on whos using them or what they intend the insult to be

[20:03:28] Jobe I mean if I go by the "google" definition for incel, im only halfway there, I mean im not getting laid, but honestly I really dont care if others are or arent

[20:04:45] daniel2 lol its more of a hatred towards women because they won't sleep with them.

[20:04:54] Jobe I dont care

[20:05:04] Jobe if they wont sleep with me, thats their loss not mine

[20:05:07] daniel2 But I mean, getting laid aint the issue, it's putting the actual effort to even try that kind of I don't give a shit about.

[20:05:08] Jobe not the end of the world

[20:06:05] Jobe besides I know at least one girl whod jump me given the chance

[20:06:19] daniel2 Your cat doesn't count

[20:07:11] Jobe my cat has no interest in me unless theres food or treats involved

[22:41:45] newton daniel2, it seems like the tweet you responded to is some kind of filipino in-joke so your comment comes off kind of out of pocket
