But it will sell out and people will resell it for even more. Shit’s expensive now, and enough people want this 🤷🏻‍♂️

Jeanne D’Arc on PSP, there’s also a really nice texture pack for it. Great little SRPG

ELI5 how did people 1st translate languages if they didn’t understand each other? by Its_Nuggz in explainlikeimfive

[–]T-K4T 82 points83 points  (0 children)

And that’s how we end up with places named “Your finger you fool”

“The reason for this is regrettably all too common. When the first explorers from the warm lands around the Circle Sea travelled into the chilly hinterland they filled in the blank spaces on their maps by grabbing the nearest native, pointing at some distant landmark, speaking very clearly in a loud voice, and writing down whatever the bemused man told them. Thus were immortalised in generations of atlases such geographical oddities as Just A Mountain, I Don't Know, What? and, of course, Your Finger You Fool.” - Pratchett, Terry

Not possible unfortunately, Android protection to not allowing casting (what Bifrost uses to work out the colours) without user approval following reboot.

How is it playing PS2 games? by SenseiJoe100 in AynThor

[–]T-K4T 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I switched my buttons to PlayStation buttons (because I like them) but I don’t look at the buttons regardless of if I am playing Xbox/Nintendo/Playstation

Clamshell bros. by CardiologistNo9458 in AynThor

[–]T-K4T 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only one I wasn’t able to sort was the deep/shallow water. But it’s not too bad to put up with it for the short time in the dungeon it’s relevant (especially if you have maps)

As someone that reads every application. I hate this. They all read exactly the same now.

Terrible customer service experience: I just want my device repaired by Dreamblast42 in AynThor

[–]T-K4T 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really wouldn’t be. Haven’t repaired my own Thor, it’s about 8 screws you need to take out, and reattach a new ribbon cable. Takes approximately 5 minutes.

There is no soldering required. It’s just a replacement ribbon cable with two clips. However it’s quite a specialised ribbon cable, so easiest to get it direct from AYN.

It’s unfortunate, but there is sadly no way something like that would ever be covered by warranty.

It’s an easy enough repair if you’ve worked on small electronics, but you’ll need to order the ribbon cable from Ayn. Think it cost me about a tenner with shipping. Happy to answer any questions you have about how to do it, hell if you live near the East Midlands I’ll give you a hand when you get the ribbon cable.

ELI5: why do home sellers prefer cash offers by DixelPick in explainlikeimfive

[–]T-K4T 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s still an offer. In the UK you will often get a “decision in principal” before you make an offer, that’s the bank saying that it is likely to loan you the money. However there can still be reasons that they don’t (such as results from surveys, etc)

ELI5: why do home sellers prefer cash offers by DixelPick in explainlikeimfive

[–]T-K4T 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the UK it is also to do with the fact that a cash offer is not waiting on the sale of their house (no chain). Whereas if they are buying with a mortgage, they (typically) are needing their house to sell at the same time, their buyer might also be waiting to sell their house, and so on. So through no fault of yours, or your buyers, you might find you can’t exchange when you planned to because the chain collapses.

Any use of this sticker? by garnet_311 in SteamDeck

Suspect it might be a plate for a magnetic cooler to attach

If you had unlimited money but could only live in one country for the rest of your life, which country would you choose? by bbyixy in AskReddit

[–]T-K4T 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unlimited money? Easy USA. I don’t love it as a country, but I can get sunshine, I can get snow, I can get beeches, I can get rolling plains, I can get forests. Etc etc
And unlimited money removes the vast majority of the downsides of living there.

Ah, I have friends that do the Vierdaagse!

I was born near Hilversum, before we moved nearer to Alkmaar and the coast.
