So i've been living with a few friends for the past few years and decided i want my own space. Sold my beloved Roland drums to cover the deposit and rent. Bought a new TV, corner sofa etc.

Moved in on the 1st November......moved out the 5th November..... 4 Days in i was robbed blind while out at football training.

In total they took

Samsung 46" 3D TV

LG 27" 3D Monitor

Dell Vostro Laptop

Apple Macbook

Wallet containing cards and ?110

My work keys

Xbox Slim with all games and kinect.

Luckily they left my main PC and Micro-server with all my movies and tv shows on....oh and my pet snake!

:(

Wow that really sucks! :( Sorry to hear it and hope you do manage to get some leads on where the items may be, out of interest, where in the UK are you?

what breed is the snake? and how old is he or she?

Its a Cornsnake and probably just over 2 years old now.

Hull, East Yorkshire

Maybe just go door to door to the areas you think could have been invovled. You might just get something in sight when they open their door. Tell them you are just asking for some sugar, or you need to make a phone call... try to think of something that many wouldn't mind letting you inside for just a second.

If they seem really nervious or shaky, you can add them to a list of maybes....

Don't know what else you can do really besides that.

It was most likley someone near you though.

Do people actaully go to their neighbours to borrow sugar? You would get stabbed or shot where im from if you asked for the time let alone sugar :)

Im not pursuing it thats what i pay taxes for, let the police do their job (lilke they ever will!) just gonna learn from my mistake and get back on my feet and come back stronger and more paranoid of the world and people around me :)

Not really :p But it is a way to maybe get into their living room for a short time. Just be like, " I was in the middle of cooking "whatever" and noticed I was out of sugar. Could I please get a cup from you if possible?" Or ask if you can use their line to call something for something urgent, because for some reason, your line is down.

All you need to do is get a glimpse inside of their place to see if you notice anything familiar. Hopefully they haven't already pawned or stashed it somewhere else.

    • I'm not sure about that, but it at least "does" a version of 7.1 that this brand new card doesn't....

    • I can barely recall getting web results from a file search... I must've turned it off long ago. 26H2 is Insider's Preview build 26300.8697, which I am running, atm. It is not available for people running the standard commercial builds of Windows--only for the beta test Insider's group. But anyway, as mentioned in the thread, this feature has been around for a long time...
    • Speak for yourself. I saw it on Feedly, came here to read it, and did read it until the steps to activate. I skipped them to read the last paragraph. I knew it was probably not "the most requested feature", but knowing Neowin, I knew the article was going to talk about a feature nonetheless. I've seen Neowin in its best and worst.
    • See if this article I wrote the other day works for you.
