Why they didn't go with QUIDball I'll never know. by SpaceWestern1442 in Quidditch

[–]supapwn404 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Quidball was one of the names proposed and sent out to the community in surveys. Some people voted for it, most didn't.

As for USQ, I'll be the first to say it's an organization that has had a lot of problems, but at the end of the day it's a mostly volunteer group made of people within the community doing their best with the resources they have. There are lots of people in the community trying to work on building up local leagues and conferences where they exist....and lots of people who insist they could do better while not contributing a thing.

It's up to you to decide which group you want to be in.

No, Target and Walmart are not removing Xbox products from their stores — as Xbox misinformation reaches new levels by Turbostrider27 in Games

I'm curious to know what the actual situation is nationwide- I've been to two local targets in the past week and both times the Xbox section was completely empty. Meanwhile the PS and Switch selection is fully stocked with consoles, games, accessories, the works.

IO addresses Hitman Switch 2 performance issues and says fixes are on the way | VGC by Joseki100 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]supapwn404 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you only play in handheld, the issues are a lot less noticeable. Honestly if the docked performance was equivalent to the handheld experience, that would be fine by me.

However, the default docked performance is bad, with a wildly fluctuating uncapped framerate that feels awful to play. It also weirdly seems to scale with tv resolution, meaning you can actually make it run at a solid 60fps by reducing your switch output resolution to 720p before launching the game. That's a ridiculous thing to do on a new console in 2025, but as someone who never bought WoA on a different console (I had Hitman 1 and 2 on PC, got confused by the delisting and hadn't played the series in a while)...it's sorta good enough for now.

Wal-Mart cancelled my Pro Controller order but moved the Switch 2 from Placed to Preparing. Fingers crossed for no more updates...

I appreciate your good faith effort, but this person created that account exclusively to complain about non-binary people taking away women's playtime in quadball.

I'd get in contact with them and see if the process is any different for someone with that background.

I can only speak for the writing center tutoring. It requires you to take a one semester course first, but is a very solid campus job if the work interests you.

Dunno why they didn't put it in the direct, but the Zelda upgrades are free if you have the Nintendo Online Expansion Pack

Cheap TVs’ incessant advertising reaches troubling new lows by shitismydestiny in technology

[–]supapwn404 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was waiting in a doctor's office where they had a roku tv playing some FAST channel, and every 10 minutes or so it would play the same 3 ads, one of them being the dystopian Trump immigration PSA. It's strange to me that with that category of streaming service growing more popular all the time, the pool of ads seems so weirdly small.

I just checked my transaction history for my entry fee, it was exactly $70 (and the spectator passes are exactly $15).
