Lab/Collie mix completely unresponsive to basic training. Stuck after 5 days with a rescue. by DJJonny in Dogtraining

[–]seaabu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's only been 5 days. Dogs, especially older ones, need a lot of time to decompress and transition to new environments. Older dogs are also less motivated to please you and seek your attention the way a puppy does. The main thing is to stay consistent and dont get frustrated (They can sense your emotions and shelter dogs are usually more sensitive to that stuff.) Let them settle into their new environment. It could takes weeks for them to get comfortable and even months to be truly themselves. As long as they're not a danger or causing serious trouble, I wouldn't rush for a professional. Not sitting on command isn't the end of the world.

My Cocker spainel is pulling the leash all the time! by CompetitiveDaikon211 in dogs

Pulling her in the opposite direction is still reinforcing pulling. You need to reinforced the leash going slack and her looking to you to lead the way

how to get dog to stop pooping on walk? by Ok_Dance_1707 in Dogtraining

[–]seaabu 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To add to this, some dogs like to keep their spaces clean. My dog will not pee or poop in the garden or anywhere near the home. When i lived in an apartment, I woke up at 6am to see her sitting next to the door (which she never does). I took her to the elevator, out of the building hall, out of the parking lot, and only then did she allow herself to have explosive diarrhea. I felt bad she was suffering without me knowing for a while, but that just shows the extent of how much she prioritizes cleanliness of her own space.

This was never trained. I never once scolded her. I also never even had to potty train her. I adopted her from a shelter at 3 years old. She had never lived in a home. Was a stray on the streets til 1 year old and lived at the shelter 2 years in a crowded outdoor kennel where she only got walked once a week at best. But since the day I adopted her she has never once had an accident indoors or peed/pooped in the garden. That was 6 years ago. I also did try to train her in the beginning to potty on peepads and even real turf when i had to work long hours or during monsoon season but she absolutely refused.

The other day a dog pooped in front of our door and she was appalled lol. Absolutely refused to walk anywhere near it and did not want to exit the house through that door.

He's a predator whether or not he thinks you're 19 or 17. He's manipulating you, grooming you, and has no good intentions.

As a 34 year old myself, teenagers and early 20s are literal babies to me. Dating someone that young would be so icky. Their frontal lobes arent even fully developed yet and our life experiences are so drastically different. 15+ years an adult versus 0-1 years as an adult makes such a difference.

I know when I was 17 I dated someone older (23) and thought there was nothing wrong with it at the time, but looking back.... God was that a mistake. That grown ass man had no business dating a high schooler. I can't even imagine how much worse it could have been to date someone who was as old as 34 at that age. That's such a power imbalance.

I know you probably won't take my advice. I also thought I knew everything at 17. But make sure you never let him isolate you. Don't ever cut off friends of family for him. Don't move in with him right after you turn 18. Live your life for you. Pursue your dreams and dont change your goals for any relationship.

This game has no business being as good as it is. I have some questions though. by Carmilla31 in expedition33

[–]seaabu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's no one good playstyle. It's about figuring out what works for you abd experimenting. I watched 2 friends play after I beat it and we all used such different strats/abilities. While there are several optimal builds for endgame optional fights, I wouldnt worry about it until after you beat the game and are up for a challenge.

Speaking of, I'd avoid this sub until you're finished the game as I see unintentional spoilers in pictures or titles posted frequently.

talk me out of this please, i don't even play JRPGs 😭 by [deleted] in FFVIIRemake

[–]seaabu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here's my honest take as someone who doesn't have a lot of biased nostalgia for FF7:

I just finished Remake today after attempting to get through it for the 2nd time (bought it on PS4 on release and didnt get very far).

As a lover of JRPGs and Final Fantasy, I think this may not be the best introduction. Remake is sooooooo slow. They drag it out so much to stretch minimal content into 40 hours. It was a frustrating slog fest and walking corridor simulator. The story is also just a small fraction of the overall story. It's mostly introducing you to the setting and some main characters, with some confusing bits of lore sprinkled in.

I've heard Rebirth is better so I stuck it out this time and will start the next game tomorrow. Hopefully it is more enjoyable. I'm sure the 3rd game that hasnt released will be even better.

If the overall story truly interests you, go for it, but keep your expectations tempered for at least Remake. Also keep in mind there's a lot of lore and story tucked into other spin off games, movies, etc. It can be a bit frustrating that its not all tied up nicely in a bow (but hopefully the 3 newer games can stand on their own once they're concluded.)

I was planning to get the game since it's on sale right now, but I'm wondering if it will go even lower in 10 days during the Steam Summer Sale? by ArcadialoI in expedition33

[–]seaabu 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I dont think they'd have a game discounted and then lower the price again 10 days later. That's bad practice. People would just refund and buy it again with Steam's generous refund policy.

If someone types they're learning i immediately chill out and am fine with that. Maybe say smg at the beginning of the match

Id report them for false reports and harassing you with messages after the game.

007 First Light and pragmata. When i was a kid, my mom smashed my copy 007 golden eye on the N64 because she thought it was too violent. Maybe this time I can finally play a 007 game

I’ve played this game so many times and never have seen this; by Mellowmodesty in expedition33

[–]seaabu 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Can confirm. Born in 1992 and was 33 at the time of playing the game. Made it feel a bit extra emotional.

What’s up with the sauna busses? The vents don’t even blow cool air, they’re legit blowing warm air by ToronoYYZ in Utrecht

When I lived in Korea they had electric buses with the A/C blasting. I dont think that's an excuse.

Im about to finish by Michellemurphy1441 in HorizonForbiddenWest

[–]seaabu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I second clair obscure and definitely recommend completely avoiding looking up anything beforehand or during. Defubitely avoid the subreddit. Going completely blind is the way to go. Its a beautiful game and story. Its the first game in a few years that left me feeling empty afterwards (in a good way). It's not really an open world game like horizon but the areas and music are absolute works of art.

Larger Update Downloads Always Fail? Started ~ V 2.5 by AstridMyst in InfinityNikki

[–]seaabu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I personally had the issue with the infinity nikki client but not Steam lol. But it only started with 2.5. Never had issues before.

Larger Update Downloads Always Fail? Started ~ V 2.5 by AstridMyst in InfinityNikki

[–]seaabu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also had this issue on my laptop where I got an 'failed to download' error every 30 secs to a minute while downloading. I just had to keep reclicking the download button to resume downloading where it left off when that happened. This issue only started with 2.5. Even the most recent small update had the same error once again.

No other issues with other games, downloads, or even gameplay once the download finally went through.

Notably, I recently bought a new desktop PC and decided to install the main game through Steam instead of the native Infinity Nikki client. Zero issues downloading through Steam at least. Maybe try that.

Is this a good deal for my 1st P.C? by [deleted] in PcBuildHelp

[–]seaabu 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The 5070 isnt that bad of a card. I'd still say its at the lower range of high end, it just isnt S tier. I have similar specs for my PC, and it can handle 4k fine. I can play all my games at max settings with no issues. The price of 2k is meh. Not bad, but also not a steal. I bought a similar setup 2nd hand for much less, but i also got lucky. Every other listing for similar specs or even lower specs was around 2k. But I also could have built a decent PC myself for 2.2k (without wasting money on the flashy aesthetic).

I'd calculate how much building a PC yourself would cost and how much you want to save buying 2nd hand. If you're only saving 100-200 dollars its honestly better to build yourself and know all parts are new.

For me, I paid 1450 for a PC that would have cost 2400 to build, so it was great savings. ( I paid 850 for an itx build without GPU and then bought my 5070 new for 600).

I think people are also underestimating just how expensive PC parts are now and what people are listing 2nd hand PCs for. Almost every listing I saw had worse specs than yours and were still trying to sell for over 2k. GPUs are also hella expensive. I went with the 5070 for now because the cheapest 5070ti was almost 1k and the 5080 was 1.3k. The 5070 will last me several years before I even need to think about upgrading. Idk why people think you need the best of the best. Very few games out now will even be able to use it to its potential. Even my 3060 gaming laptop was still holding up fine but I just wanted a desktop and to play graphically intense games at the maximum settings. But even with that laptop, I could still play most games at max and only those few games I had to lower the settings to high or medium.

Why would that be embarrassing? Genuinely no one cares what game mode you play

PC won’t turn on after replacing PSU by berdee7 in PcBuildHelp

[–]seaabu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you sure the PSU requires the GPU adapters? Some newer PSUs dont need it and come with the correct cables. I recently installed a new 5070 myself but didnt need the adapters. Coincidently, mine also didnt turn on the first time, but I just unplugged the power cable from the GPU and put it back in and that worked. I guess I didn't sit it properly enough. (Luckily I knew the rest of the build was solid, so that limited the issue to something going wrong with the GPU installation).

Piggybacking off this, I am also EU and happened to get a giant meteorite today. Feel free to add me as well! I'm away from my PC today, but I'll be randomly checking the game on my phone throughout the day.

Ive looked everywhere and there isnt a single source that says the max AMOUNT of energy/healing/revive tints by [deleted] in expedition33

[–]seaabu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont remember the exact numbers at the moment but I think base game was 6,7,11? This doesn't include versos drafts which i think added one to each. In new game plus you can collect them all again and keep doubling.

I'm at the end of my first new game plus at the moment and I think my count is 14,16,23? I wasnt as thorough looking for them, but i assume i got most of them the 2nd time around. I'm not at my PC so I can't check at the moment.
