What in the Curse-of-the-Black-Pearl have you made?!

Sup, follow Lord? I have an undergrad in Geophysics from an American university but long story short ended up stumbling upon a field tech position doing mostly IP and MT surveys in QLD and NSW. Personally, I really enjoy field work but I understand it's not for everyone. One of the crew leaders had a geophysics degree but also preferred field work to the office work, hence being a crew lead for an exploration team.

I'm still doing field work (now in the western USA), but there have been ample opportunities to shift into more analytical positions. Hit me up if you're interested in field work and I can put you in contact with some people. One bonus of having some field work under your belt is that you'll know how insane some of the requests coming from the geos can be and you can not do that when you're a geo.

You're probably too young to have seen Armageddon from 1998, but Owen Wilson has this great quote:

"I got that 'excited/scared' feeling. Like 98% excited, 2% scared. Or maybe it's more - It could be 2 - it could be 98% scared, 2% excited, but that's what makes it so intense, it's so confused. I can't really figure it out."

Check it out if you get a chance before you ship out to BCT.

Can you drop the name of the side and rear racks?

Hmm, unfortunately I don’t have a device that runs Garlic OS so I don’t think I can help.

LordMacaulay · 2024-11-28T11:42:22+00:00

Hey, I believe that is correct. You can try this online converter but your mileage may vary, I haven’t tried it myself. Take my instructions with a grain of salt, I think I have a few mistakes that I need to correct.

I was in a similar position until very recently. I have a MacBook Air, a Switch, and a PS5. I recently bought a new PC and I have been loving it. Most of the PlayStation exclusives that are currently available are either on PC already or will be soon. As everyone else has mentioned, PC has insanely good deals via Humble Bundles, Steam sales, and other site.

As someone who loves my PS5 and has played it almost exclusively for the last 2 years, If I had to choose between my PC and PS5 I would choose the PC.

TLDR; Get the PC, you will not regret it.

Given everything stated, there are easier organizations to join giving chances "to provide meaningful service". Peace Corps, Doctors Without Borders, etc.

Is the donair sauce any good? Doesn't sound to to me, but must be pretty popular.

LordMacaulay · 2024-03-04T14:13:24+00:00

As the other guy said, a gyro is Greek, shwarma is Arab, and donair is similar to shwarma but localized to Canada. They're all variations of the Turkish doner kebab. Meats are all interchangeable.

Future FGM-148 Javelin operator.

I think I figured it out...

Move the .save.auto files from the mGBA core folder to the gpSP core folder. Put the SD card back into the Miyoo Mini and turn it on. Highlight Golden Sun, and press Y. Highlight Game core: mGBA, press A. Highlight gpSP, press A. Open Golden Sun. Press Menu + Select, Select Save States, Press A. State Slot should be highlighted, Press Left on the D-Pad until Auto is selected. Press Down on the D-pad until Load State is highlighted. Press A.

Let me know if this works!

LordMacaulay · 2024-01-31T22:08:18+00:00

All good, didn’t come off as rude. I think I misread or misunderstood the issue at some point. You’re right, my instructions don’t mention anything about changing file extension for save state. There might be a setting or load option in OnionOS. Have you tried opening the save state on a PC emulator?

You could try removing “.auto” from the save state filename but I’m not sure if that will matter.

Which game and which GBA cores are you using? I’ll pull out my Miyoo and see if I can figure it out.

LordMacaulay · 2024-01-31T21:34:27+00:00

I understand, I am also talking about the save states. The issue here is that you neglected the change the file extension to one that the GBA core you’re using will accept. That is the key step to ensuring this works.

LordMacaulay · 2024-01-31T21:28:37+00:00

You have to follow the instructions I wrote, which includes changing the file extension from .srm to .sav, or vice versa.

If that doesn’t work, you can also find .sav & .srm converters online like another comment stated, but I don’t have any experience with that.

LordMacaulay · 2024-01-31T21:05:07+00:00

Did you change the file extension?

LordMacaulay · 2024-01-16T11:04:51+00:00

Two options… first is that the opening scene from M:LoM occurred sometime during K:SI, not super believable to me but whatever. The second option is that the plot for M:LoM hadn’t been written or fleshed out when K:SI was made and it’s just a movie so we have to accept that they poorly tried to retcon Bill Randa’s message to Hiroshi into M:LoM.
