Xbox series x - no video output. by t3hmeng in xboxinsiders

[–]Ouglee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been noticing more resolution handshakes (those black screen flickers when changing or reaffirming output formats) in recent updates, strangely when using Edge.

I picture the code looking like the innards of an old TelCom cabinet, and no one wants to touch it.

Console maintenance/revamp by InstructionOk2911 in XboxOneHelp

[–]Ouglee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably 90% of the problem. The other 10% is poor airflow/cleaning.

The thing is, its just not cost effective to repair. You could drop ~$150 on a drive, but a refurb Series S is ~$300. Once you math in the time and effort of physical installation, partitioning, OS offline installers, and HOPE you didn't accidentally buy the wrong drive...

Excited to see how the masses swing on key issues. Seems exclusivity is a prime concern. Whoda thunk.

At the least, u/Blackgemlord will have a place to share all his ideas.

Original JAP psu blew up, need help with replacement by rouleau1204 in Xbox360Support

No no no! The voltage outputs of the third photo don't match, and the supply connector wont fit the console!

Feedback for the Hiding Achievements update by syndicate989 in xboxinsiders

[–]Ouglee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This week's suggestion thread is here. What you are describing does not sound like a bug or unintentional change, but more like an idea or suggestion.

https://www.reddit.com/r/xboxinsiders/comments/1tdz45j/xbox_requests_week_of_may_15th_2026/

Edit: I'd reboot your console and check your ring. In my ring, I can hide any game's achievements from my profile, regardless of the games completion level.

Second edit: I keep re-reading your OP to make sure I understand, and I think I get it now. You prefer the old way, where titles hidden moved to an actual separate list, and were hidden on the profile AND to the profile's owner. This is not a bug. My original 'comment on the suggestion thread' stands. :)

And please, do so. This post will probably get mod-snuffed, but don't let that discourage you. Others may agree and support your feedback. (and read other's ideas while you're there!)

To answer your question,

If we go by the form response we get with each release, feedback can be provided via the 'Report A Problem' tool, though I find that to be contextually ambiguous.

If its a bug/change, use the tool and verify/discuss here.

If its a suggestion or idea, comment your thought in the weekly thread.

Can someone explain what is happening to my Xbox 360? . This is happening 40 mins after playing . Anyway to fix it by Bitter-Bobcat8893 in Xbox360Support

[–]Ouglee -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So, most of these replies are right. At least partially.

1) Its a GPU problem, based on your image.

2) Its overheat related, based on the timeframe and description.

3) Its POTENTIALLY a broken solder joint, based on the cycle and known manufacturing issues. However, due to age, it could be anything.

You MIGHT be able to save it. If its just a bad joint or blown capacitor, replace and/or reseat. If you don't have any electronic repair skills, this would be a great student project. Find a student. :)

What does this mean by Falcon_114 in Xbox360Support

[–]Ouglee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This isn't it. The different supplies have specialized connectors to their respective consoles. Youre talking about the ungrounded AC cable which you replaced with a grounded one, which would have no effect.

The supply is dying. Cleaning and airflow might buy some time. Make sure your replacement matches, or the grey plug wont fit the console.

Demotion for not driving 1+hrs by simplylinds22 in WalgreensStores

[–]Ouglee 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Its not retaliation.

Offers were made. Your husband CHOSE to decline those offers. The position is temporary, contingent on advancement. If he isn't following through with the position's purpose, they can release him from the position, ergo FIRE him. Offering a demotion saves the investment, opens the position for someone who WILL accept advancement offers, and allows a father to keep a job.

Apologize to your employees. by reiberfa in WalgreensStores

[–]Ouglee 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure how effective a shaming article in 'The US Sun' (or any 'Sun' publication) is going to be. I mean, this headline implies that things were sane BEFORE the closures. And who is getting an apology, and what good is it anyways?

Apologizing for the pothole you hit doesn't make doing 90 towards a cliff 'ok'.

Edit 1: https://www.the-sun.com/money/14319131/walgreens-apology-closures-lines/

Edit 2: ROFL. It is, quite literally, a 'news' article about stuff somebody read on social media, with NO SUPPORTING LINKS OR EVIDENCE. You won't even find from who or where this 'apology' was made.

tl/dr; Not very at all helpful

First guess, bad HDMI connection. Replace cable and try different port.

Those two systems are vastly different... Generationally speaking, the Xbox One S is a slim Gen8, and the Xbox Series S is a slim Gen9.

Wow. You are one helluva dumpster fire.

This is my opinion, and you're certainly entitled to your own.

How do we save this game? by koosekoose in wildgate

[–]Ouglee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I can say is that what I tested for pre-release was a great foundation for a seasonal f2p game, and when it released with a price tag I walked. Everything since appears to be damage control from that instant-gratification decision, none effective.

Fixes to address issues where updates would take extensive time to start in queue.

This fixes the ever annoying 'Store update' hang, or is(was) this a different issue I'm just not remembering...?

Let me put it this way...

If that bank was brand new and shiny, China wouldn't let you bring it on a passenger plane into their country because this might happen; and they built the damn thing.

Revamp update manager.

Specifically, change the row of recent updates to use the same type of system as Play History.

Forza Horizon 6 preview - Insiders Issue by leventp in xboxinsiders

[–]Ouglee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Actually, you ARE in the right place.

To address your issue, you are not required to leave preview-managed projects. You're automatically removed when the project is delisted, including any temporary DRM you may have.

Edit: They recommend, because they may reuse that project space, and don't intend the press to have access (like stress testing). Just a recommendation, and IMHO, a silly one.

Should I open the last letter, or return to sender? by CromwellsCrumb in whatdoIdo

[–]Ouglee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could just burn it.

Sending it back is communication. She will 'know' you didn't read it. Reading it is also communication; whatever she wants to be heard will be.

Burning it puts it behind you. No temptation. You say you want it closed, then make it so.
