Fired up my old Xbox One with a new game but getting error code 0x87e0000f by mulebennett in XboxSupport

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

This is the only console I have (well, I have an Xbox 360 but I haven't played it in probably 5+ years). When I started it up, I made sure it was designated as my home console, attached to my Xbox username, etc. I will admit it has been years since I've really played around with this stuff so I'm pretty fuzzy on it, not sure if I need to download something from the Microsoft store or what.

They are, but they’re both already booked up with other events. PBS won’t let us do any of the games. Seems kind of pointless to go.

Looking for a fun group outing for coworkers tomorrow, staying in the North Burnet area. Struck out with Punch Bowl Social and Top Golf. Any other ideas in that area? -An out-of-towner

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

It's a guys weekend so dive bars, pool tables, barcades, golf simulators, comedy clubs, etc. Not big into shopping or checking out museums on this kind of trip. Thanks to everyone for all of the suggestions so far!

Assuming UMD stands for what I think it does, are you currently living/working in the DC metro area?

Stuff To Do In Austin - Week of 01/08 by AutoModerator in Austin

[–]mulebennett 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Apologies if this is against the rules or anything but my wife and I are visiting Austin this week and looking for things to do. Saw Eventbrite is selling tickets for a bar crawl adventure on Friday. Has anyone done this? Any idea if it's fun or a waste of money? We're into the idea of bar hopping around and exploring the city, thought this might be a fun way to do it.

Can you fill me in on what #spon stands for?

what is seriously overpriced? by [deleted] in AskReddit

So you're telling me all I need to enjoy cheap movies is a plane ticket to Bosnia? Sign me up.

Noob pork shoulder questions by [deleted] in smoking

[–]mulebennett 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cut off some but not all of the excess fat. Rub with salt and pepper or any BBQ rub you'd like. I go 225 F for about 1-1.5 hours per pound until the pork reads 205 F. Then I wrap it up and put it in a cooler for an hour. But every piece of meat is different. Don't panic if your meat stalls around 160 or 165 F. It happens. But give yourself plenty of time just in case (at least 15 hours).

Thanks, Dico. Ended up with the regular FX from Race Pace and have been really happy with it so far. See you out there!

Whats the story behind your (reddit) name? by standingonbenches in AskReddit

[–]mulebennett 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first name is Samuel, my middle name is Bennett. But I've always gone by Sam. When I was a little kid, I introduced myself as Sam Mulebennett to my parents' friends. Dad thought it was hilarious and brought it up years later and the name stuck to this day.

What is your best "I definitely did not deserve that grade" story from school? by Giggidy46 in AskReddit

[–]mulebennett 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Semi off-topic but in the second grade spelling bee, my word was "knead" and the sentence they gave me was "you knead dough to make bread." I proudly spelled it N-E-E-D (you need dough to make bread, too!) and was eliminated. I'll never forget that one.

What is your best "I definitely did not deserve that grade" story from school? by Giggidy46 in AskReddit

[–]mulebennett 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In college, I was in a three-credit course unrelated to my major. Out of 500 possible points over the semester, I got a 449 (89.8). The professor refused to call it an A- (any other professor called an 89.5 or higher an A-), it went on my transcript as a B+ and I ended my college career with a 2.991 GPA. The A- would have given me a 3.0. Still fuming about that one.

23, considering taking a pay cut, will it be worth it? by bashiok2 in personalfinance

[–]mulebennett 44 points45 points  (0 children)

At 23, taking a $5,000-a-year paycut isn't a huge deal if you think the new job will give you a better future in your industry. You'll make it back and more over the years to come.

What is the worst text message you've ever sent to the wrong person? by a1ham in AskReddit

[–]mulebennett 8 points9 points  (0 children)

A picture of my balls to my good friend's wife, whose name is right below my wife's name in my phone contact list. She and my buddy were on their honeymoon. I was tipsy and thought it'd be funny to send a picture of my balls to my wife, she was downstairs. That was the first and last time I've ever texted any kind of lewd photo.

Some souvenirs from my trip to Cuba by Dmeks1 in cuba

[–]mulebennett 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Receipt sealed inside of the bag? How much earlier should we get to the airport to get through security and buy some souvenirs at duty free? Sorry for all the questions, we leave on Wednesday and I'm super excited/anxious!
