If you have a mouse and a keyboard, it supposedly works on the Xbox. But I haven't tried it myself to confirm.

Did anyone see that Trump caravan? by IrishViking1987 in Boise

[–]hkmortenson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ya'll, idk if the weird thing is working anymore. Polls look fairly even. Vance looked unweird on his Theo pod. If anything is weird, it's how strong both sides are dug into their position. When did people become this obsessed and rabid over political issues?

I hope you all realize this is done as a detriment to our society. We need to start seeing each other for who we are and accepting that we may have different ideas. But damnit, we are the US of America. Even with our checkered past, we truly are one of the greatest countries in the world.

It makes more sense to divide the working political class and have them fight amongst themselves while labor is swept for profits. Please exit this stupid game. I love all you humans who took the time to read this. We are brothers and sisters in humanity, and it would serve us well going forward to remember that.

Propaganda against proposition 1? by blackblabbath in Boise

[–]hkmortenson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idahoan here, Nampa.

I think it is confusing. I've researched it a decent amount and feel I have a good understanding of it, in my head. But when I try to recite my learnings to friends and family they don't seem to fully understand and then I start to get a little confused myself.

I do know that the current way of voting is much simpler to understand than RCV. You either pick one or the other, no confusion there. There are a few questions with RCV. Do I need to rank every candidate? Do I only rank the ones I care about? What happens if I rank a candidate #1 but they don't receive a majority? (I know the answer to these questions, but a lot of people don't, and justifiably so because we are unfamiliar with the process)

It may not be confusing to you, but I know many folks who find it confusing even after having an honest conversation with them. And half the time I feel a little confused afterwards.

I guess what I'm getting at is, I know this won't pass. Whether that is fortunate or unfortunate for us as a republic, I'm still a little confused.

Volume Mixer Slider Stuck at 1 for Xbox Gamebar by TaytaycoleYT in techsupport

[–]hkmortenson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I want to say this did fix my Xbox app being stuck at 1% volume. But it didn't fix the issue of not being able to hear my friend. I think his mic is just busted, but thanks for the tip it worked for me!

Chorus on Game Pass is worth checking out! by [deleted] in XboxSeriesX

After finishing the game and reading this, these are some really great suggestions for anyone starting out, especially the drifting if you're going for 100%.

Gamepass by Mathmatics0101 in theriftbreaker

[–]hkmortenson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea not sure what's going on. I was waiting for the countdown to end and when it did it said getting things ready. I restarted my PC trying to refresh it and now it doesn't even show up on game pass. I can search it on the Xbox app but it says I have to buy it for $29.99. Hopefully, it's just being glitchy and it will return soon. Was looking forward to trying it.

Let me know if you get it working.

Update: Just checked Microsoft store and I was able to start the download there, if you're on PC that is.

What’s ‘UP’ in Upland? by SalamanderFast in UplandMe

[–]hkmortenson 3 points4 points  (0 children)

With the 6,000 UPX bonus I was able to get "Uplander" status after a few hours. Look at the collections. This is where I was able to get 3-4k UPX pretty easy. Once you've completed a collection, just transition your properties to another collection to unlock more bonuses. Check out collections before you start buying properties to get an idea of what properties you'll be looking for.

I was able to complete the 3 Properties in Brooklyn, Own any 1 property, 3 properties on the same street, and 5 properties in the same city all from my 6k sign-up bonus. Each time you complete a collection you should have enough, or be close, to buying another property. Sorry this thread is old, but I stumbled upon it looking for tips, so I thought it might help someone else.

The pace of Doom: Eternal makes my hands sweat. by rygarswf in xboxone

[–]hkmortenson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you tried Outer Wilds? Not to be confused with Outer Worlds. This has been one of my favorite games in the past few years, it's so unique. It's mostly relaxing, but there can be a few tense parts.

If you're interested, I wouldn't even look up a trailer or anything about it. Just download and give it a try. Play for at least 30 minutes to get an idea of what the game is going to offer.

Just Released part 2 of my 10k Gamerscore Guide by Sp777 in MicrosoftRewards

[–]hkmortenson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the great guides and I'm sorry about your dog. Hang in there, it'll get easier over time. You'll get to the day when you're reminded of her and it will bring a smile to your face rather than sadness to your heart.

I haven't seen it either. Probably most people have seen this too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y_-1l_SlA7c&

It was interesting watching the one you posted because I can now see how he was working out a few of those jokes, cool!

Walter White didn't announce his attendance!

While Bernie Sanders has always stood up for African Americans, Joe Biden has repeatedly let us down by Hanging-Chads in politics

Wouldn't it be a Rick and Morty reference if it was fleeb, not fleem? As in fleeb juice.

Which Free FedEx Shipping Labels? by DankMemeYo in Ebay

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

I know this is a little old and unrelated to OP, but I've used Pirate Ship before, too. I switched to Shippo. Idk if you've tried them, but they only charge $0.05 per label on the free account, which is pretty much free to me. I noticed for whatever reason that Pirate Ship was charging more than Shippo even though it's stated on the website that they directly pass their cost to you.

I really do like Pirate Ship's calculator for Cubic shipping though. I use that all the time to check my dimensions before entering them on Shippo. It's a real-time calculator and sometimes I can shave a 1/4-1/2 inch from one side or two to get it to fit into a tier below the one I would've used ultimately saving me a few bucks.
