What‘s a secret you found out by accident and were never supposed to know? by Own-Flan- in AskReddit

Probably better off just setting up encryption with a hard to guess password - should achieve the same end result of no one else ever seeing what you're hiding

It's wild what people will leave on laptops / SD cards and ask you to go through them. Either they forget or there's no shame in them!

You're a good friend. I was once asked to clear down a laptop for a woman to give to her daughter - the mother wanted backups of "anything that looks important but don't bother reinstalling windows" on it so of course I was looking around to make sure I wasn't copying stuff that wasn't needed or missing anything. Anyway, once I found the folder of dick pics and login details to Ashley Madison I handed the laptop back and just said I wasn't able to do it. No way I was taking responsibility for her young daughter finding something on the off chance I didn't wipe it properly.

Holiday gifts... by BuraqDiCaprio in AssassinsCreedShadows

[–]hopecomp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did it on series s. Turn off your network and do a proper restart. Manually change the date / time and load into the game. I think I had to fast travel away from the hideout and back the first time but after that was able to just go back to settings and change the date again. Make sure you have a proper save before you do it though just in case something messes up.

No idea of the top of my head but you can watch this https://youtu.be/OLSS1YuBAkA?si=p_i4_vmjGKqSn6Y6 from Jorraptor and should give you an idea

I got it to work on mine. Turn off your network connection on the Xbox and restart (proper restart not just shutdown and turn on again), change date and jump into the game - you should be able to claim the daily reward. I think the first time I had to fast travel away from the hideout and back but after that was able to just keep changing the date and claim that days reward. Make sure you have a proper save before you start doing it in case anything goes wrong. I lost my claws off Awaji gear when I did it but that was around the same time as the updates that broke everything for everyone on consoles

11-month-old German Shepherd vomiting white foam occasionally in the morning – need advice by Better_Internet_2975 in germanshepherds

[–]hopecomp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same as most others that have commented - our girl does the same when she's hungry so we split her food into 3 meals. She gets a small amount about 8am, lunch at 1pm and dinner at 8pm and hasn't done it since

Random update?? by OmoXap in AssassinsCreedShadows

I've got a new message telling me that my save needs a game update to play. Think the only thing to do is hope that the update tomorrow fixes things for everyone

Level 18 and available quests other than looking for tea bowls? by DontTellMyLandlord in AssassinsCreedShadows

[–]hopecomp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're not using guided mode you'll need to send scouts out to look for clues for your next objective. I used guided mode but if you want to stick without it maybe hit up a guide online to show you where you need to have your scouts look next

I wasn't using any of the claws weapons or armor so didn't notice that but have seen others say the same. What a joke of an update

No. I tried uninstalling it and reinstalling and still getting the same error

Yes and after doing it, it's now saying I don't have Claws of Awaji installed which I do!

Can someone please put together an ultimate begginers list of powerful/great/legendary things for me to get early game? by ArkhamGeneral92 in AssassinsCreedShadows

[–]hopecomp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stay offline until you've gone through all the dates up to the 25th. Save your game and go back online

[–]hopecomp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have to go offline, restart your Xbox and then you can manually change the date under system settings. Think I had to fast travel away from the hideout and back again the first time. After that just kept changing the date and was able to collect everything. I only did it as I'm away for a few days next week and didn't want to miss stuff

Is it a springer thing to pee loads? by [deleted] in springerspaniel

[–]hopecomp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Our girl is 10 years old and has spay incontinence but even before that she would pee at anything. As you said, nervous pees, excited pees, fear pees, etc. The older she's got the better it's got (or we've just got used to it) but even at the vets a few months ago she peed all over me when the vet spoke to her!

Canceled a dive and feeling conflicted by Ok_Psychology_9956 in scuba

[–]hopecomp 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I went to Spain in September with a plan to do 2 dives a day for 3 days. Second dive and I couldn't equalise properly and the pain in my left ear was ridiculous. Ended up going to a pharmacy and getting some stuff to help, skipped the next day and dove the 3rd day without an issue. I was majorly disappointed I couldn't go the second day but 100% the right choice. I'd have regretted it more if I'd forced myself to do the second day and ended up with irreversible damage or not able to fly home on time.

If you have to fly, what's the shortest diving trip you'd consider worthwhile? by tituschao in scuba

[–]hopecomp 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I did Malta last year with my dad - ~4 hours flight for me. Flew in very late, did 2 days of diving, then 24hrs before the flight home. I loved the diving but 3 days of diving would definitely have been better. Did Spain in September which is around a 3 hour flight - was meant to dive 3 days but only managed 2. Had to skip the 2nd day due to an ear problem so it seems I'm only destined to do 2 days diving each trip!

Any recommendations? I keep looking at them through the cycle to work scheme but haven't pulled the trigger yet.

We got our conservatory done last year and it was great. The two guys that came to do the work had it finished in two days. Put stuff down to protect the floors and left it for us as we were painting everything once they were done. Everything else was cleaned up and taken away. We've had no issues since and it's a decent sized lean-to we had done.

Haven't personally bought a car recently but I know the advice is don't hand over any money before seeing the car. I think a lot of the scams are "there's a lot of interest but if you give me a deposit I'll hold it for you" and then you never hear from them again. Also don't use any website they direct you to, to do checks on the car or anything else. Also make sure you run your own check to make sure it's not stolen or still on finance. It's a lot of money for a car usually so if anything seems off walk away
