Those names are taken from Iain M. Banks’ Culture sci-fi series.

Idle Thumbs and Important If True feeds both sit fallow in my Overcast. I refuse to delete them in perhaps misguided hopes that one day a seedling will spring anew.

That’s what I was thinking.

Might be part of an immobilizer system. A lot of “buy now, pay later, we don’t reject anyone for bad credit” places use them. Not that Carvana is like that (I bought my car from them and had a great experience, though I’ve heard other scammy things since then) but since you mention a “third-party” maybe there’s something funky going on.

This is why de Vries is getting the boot.

And yet, it didn’t appear when I tried that time. Seems hit and miss for me, or maybe one of the apps I’m bouncing between at the moment doesn’t have an Edit functionality yet. Thanks.

Holy shit this community rules. I’m so happy for you! May it live up to all your memories.

Ah, I see that now. Should have thought to scroll farther. You’re right, that’s a tough one!

I don’t expect to be able to answer your question, but can you provide any remembered details on the GameBoy JRPG? I’ll even take half-remembered ones. I love a good mystery!

I love a happy ending 🥲

Please @cuchilloc, let us know if this is it!

That should be “using”, not “husking”.

I’ve had a 100% hitrate installing Fitgirl repacks using lutris with this method: aHR0cHM6Ly95b3V0dWJlLmNvbS93YXRjaD92PWdWdWFiRWNrTU1BJmZlYXR1cmU9c2hhcmVi

I don’t believe for a minute that this person has truly tested every game they claim to have on that thing, much less optimized.

You can download clean ROM sets of just about everything on their list with essentially zero effort, and the difficulty of setting up emulators is super overblown most of the time, especially with options like EmuDeck becoming more mature.

That site also seems super-sketch, but that may just be the fact that English is clearly their second language, which isn’t a fair indicator of quality.
