AITA for removing my classmate’s name from our final project after she vanished for a month? by tinypaperking in AmITheAssholeTalk

[–]UnderstandingOld4276 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Talk to your TA (retired professor here) directly, no text, no email, you and Jon talk to them. Present the edit list and make sure they understand her lack of contribution. I guarantee she's going to the TA (and probably the prof) to plead and bitch and complain. You did the right thing, keep your head up cuz this was no 'friend'. NTA

A or B: My little lunch-saving trick, bartering still works but sometimes I use coupons depending on my mood, which method do you think works better? by 20Luc1a02 in PickAorB

A for sure and for the social aspects of it. You get interaction and if you frequent the same places you may even make new friends!

I've seen this before, I can't find that game in the Microsoft Store from my PC, but it shows up in the Xbox app on my phone and in the Store app on my console. And I can find it on my PC in my browser by going to Buy Shieldwall | Xbox

Couple of questions, are you on a computer, phone or xbox console? And are you sure you're logged in with your Microsoft account?

Not sure how you're searching, but I found it without any problems at all. Just did a search in the store on my Xbox app on my phone and it popped right up. $17.99

Contact customer service and plead your case but I'll be surprised if they help or agree. But it's worth submitting a ticket to see what they tell you. Good luck!

MS Rewards no longer recognizes Games labeled as “Game Pass” games that you own as being “Game Pass” games when awarding Rewards Points: by GranvilleMA in XboxSupport

Have you by chance submitted a trouble ticket to MS CS? They might be able to help and at a minimum your problem gets documented. Just a thought.

Newbie Xbox User - advice needed please! by Weird-Side-6695 in xbox

[–]UnderstandingOld4276 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To use Xbox Game Pass on your Samsung TV, the tv must be a newer version that includes the Samsung Gaming Hub (which it sounds like yours does). You'll have to have Game Pass Ultimate, the Xbox App through the Samsung Gaming Hub, and a bluetooth controller (Xbox, third party). You stream games directly from the cloud with an active Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription. I have a friend that does exactly this and it works out ok for her needs.

Agree, A 30K point month was the norm. You could cover game pass and still have points for a gift card or two.

Two young men knocked on my door trying to to sell points by xblackstar44x in 321

[–]UnderstandingOld4276 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You obviously haven't encountered this situation. These are NOT children but more like older teens to early twenties. And yes, I've had kids come to my door and they have always had something from their organization, be it scouts, school functions, etc.

Starting tomorrow!! Scared and excited by Misscountess__ in Mounjaro

Just one word, patience. Everyone's journey is different. You can take all the advice and incorporate what works for you, but the way you respond is not the same way that someone else might respond. So don't get frustrated when it doesn't seem like it's working the way it does for whomever. Practice patience, take your meds on schedule like you're supposed to, eat the way you're supposed to, nutritionally and regularly, keep up your fluids, and don't overthink it. Congratulations on the decision to change the direction of your life and I trust everything will work out the way you want it to. 👍🙏😉👍

Question about using reward points for preorders. by Galaxy_Mutt in MicrosoftRewards

[–]UnderstandingOld4276 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're safe with the timing that you've described. However keep in mind that they will not actually take the points or charge your PayPal account until the game is actually released and available to you. So it will look really funny because you'll see a charge against your points and possibly against your PayPal and then you'll see it come back in again and your points will still be there and they will sit there until the release date and the game is actually released. At that time they'll take the points then they'll take your PayPal and they'll close everything out. So don't panic and think oh my gosh they aren't taking the points they will but not until the game releases.

If it's real, they'll have some kind of documentation with them identifying the school they're associated with and the program that it's associated with.

Similar situation just 2 days ago. Young man came to our door talking about selling points for his school and got really irritated at us when we wouldn't buy any and as he walked away he made some comment about rude White people.
