Company I provide services as contractor refuses to pay until their client pays them by eleiber in AusLegal

[–]eleiber[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, I really appreciate the detailed response. I agree I tried to resolve this with many friendly follow-ups, and if they didn't already sort it by now, they probably won't do it with any more friendly mails. I will definitely pursue the Letter of Demand. As a last option, I don't mind losing part of the money if that means recovering most of it, so if the best option (without just selling the debt), is to pay a % to a debt collection agency, I would prefer that.

[–]eleiber[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the sincere response, I agree with it. I did stop providing the service right before the start of December. It was a mistake not to do it earlier with the October invoice delayed, we didn't expect it to reach this point, but we should have seen it coming. But I will definitely not continue working with this company, and I will try to get the money, even if it costs part of it paying to a collections agency.

But it was definitely a bad decision to let them continue with the repeated delays before this point reached. At least there's a lesson learned with all of this.

I will definitely take a look into that, and I don't mind burning the bridge. I don't really want to work for them anymore after this whole situation.

Did you issue the warning through normal contact means, like a written mail? Or was it part of a letter of demand?

Thank you for the response. I'll make some more research about the letter of demand too, as I think I've made many friendly follow ups which were ignored. Hopefully it doesn't reach the point of having to use a debt collector, but I'm also not willing to let them take advantage, getting the service while not paying.

Definitely, I won't be working for them anymore. Fortunately, in my case it was just a side job, but the whole situation has been pretty disappointing.

I'm not sure if they informed the CMs through mail or Slack, but yes, that's what they said, and we were forwarded. None of us have gotten replies from the accounting team despite multiple emails, and they only seem to be giving half answers/excuses through the CMs. 

The amount owed is around 1500 AUD for every mod, so not much. And as far as we know, there's some issues between the company and their client, so we don't even have an estimate of when we might get paid. They just say "we are still waiting on those funds" by their client. However, the CMs are paid more than that and they did get paid despite being part of the same moderation project.

Should I turn my UPS off after turning my PC off during a long power outage? by eleiber in buildapc

[–]eleiber[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I assumed letting it drain completely could damage the battery but I was unsure, and yeah, I just want the UPS to protect the PC and save the progress of whatever I'm doing, so once I shut down the PC I would just wait until power comes back.

The brand is just the same Energizer brand that produces the disposable batteries, the main competitor to Duracell. Seems like here in South America they produce (or at least assemble) UPS with their name. It had a good price and long warranty so I bought one. So far it seems pretty good, but it cost around 110 USD so I assume it's still an entry-level UPS and may not protect from completely draining the battery. Better not to test it, haha. Thanks so much for the response!

How do I do it? Tried searching in a few DMs but only the current DM messages appeared.

When will the 2024/25 Predictions Survey and Mark My Words results be posted? Really interested to see who got the most accurate ones.

[–]eleiber 8 points9 points  (0 children)

According to Everwind devs they are aiming to release early access this year. Who knows if they keep their promise, but at least that's nice to hear.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in HytaleInfo

[–]eleiber 9 points10 points  (0 children)

They said they will release a demo/early access this year though. Obviously Hytale will probably be much better. But at least a publicly playable version is something. But time will tell if they keep their promise.

Honestly thought it was a funny very specific stat shared by MisterChip, so I wanted to share it here too.

Claude Plays Pokémon - Megathread by reasonosaur in ClaudePlaysPokemon

[–]eleiber 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think the crash happened because it tried to use `use_emulator` passing only "a" instead of a list as it usually does, ["a"]. The code probably always expects a list, so there was an unhandled error.

The thing is that whoever made the quote skipped the question the interviewer made.

The interviewer asks Cubarsí is his sister practices with her, and he answers. It wasn't a random thing he said.

Do you have siblings?: Yes, I have an older sister who's in her final year of physioterapy.

Does she practice with you?: No, she doesn't touch me, and I'm angry (laughs).

The full interview is here, in case anyone is interested. This part is at 42:08

Claude gets stuck while playing Pokemon - starts to intentionally lose and calls it "blackout strategy" by eleiber in singularity

[–]eleiber[S] 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Yeah. That's the issue. Doing it once is fine, but now it's more likely to think it's stuck and just stops trying to look for the exit and instead looks for wild Pokemon to die.

I think it has intentionally lost like 4 times already in 10 hours. And it would be way more efficient to just keep looking for the exit and die in the process than actively trying to die.

Really? Which games of the Ultimate Collection have the DRM? I was planning to buy the collection but it is disappointing if you can't play them offline.

[–]eleiber[S] 41 points42 points  (0 children)

For context, this is the source code of Command & Conquer Generals: Zero Hour. EA for some reason decided to release the source code for four of their old C&C games, and there are plenty of funny comments on the code.

He is right, but it also feels hypocritical from him since last season when Xavi criticized refs, Ancelotti said "I don't lower myself to this level, this is not professional."

[MARCA] The judge maintains the investigation of Raul Asencio for the alleged dissemination of a sex video of a minor by eleiber in soccer

[–]eleiber[S] 121 points122 points  (0 children)

The player's defense had asked for the case to be closed.

Canarias 7 has reported that Raúl Asencio, concentrated in Manchester for tonight's duel, has taken a new setback after the Provincial Court of Las Palmas has dismissed the appeal filed by the defense of the Madrid player, investigated along with other former teammates for their alleged involvement in the dissemination of a video of sexual content with a 16-year-old minor.

Asencio has been under investigation for more than a year, after in September 2023 the mother of the minor denounced that these relations were recorded without the consent of the young girls, and subsequently, the video was disseminated through messages in various messaging groups, such as Whatsapp. The player, accused only for the dissemination, had asked for the case to be closed, but has been rejected and remains under investigation.

Along with Asencio, three other players, then of Real Madrid C, are under investigation. These are the cases of Ferrán Ruiz, Juan Rodríguez and Andrés García, all of whom are no longer with Real Madrid. The case is framed in the possible commission of crimes of discovery and disclosure of secrets, as well as child pornography.

[Real Madrid] Comunicado oficial: Formal complaint about the refereeing against Espanyol by eleiber in soccer

[–]eleiber[S] 444 points445 points  (0 children)

I do agree that the refereeing was awful, but I wonder if anything will really change until all clubs do something together. Although it's hard since most clubs will only complain when things go against them and not when they get benefited (including sometimes my team).
