It’s kind of crazy how they have been looking for this for so long and nothing has turned up despite the games popularity.

Sadly, my old computer that possibly could have had this ended up in the garbage years and years ago.

This is why I think it’s funny people still believe ‘the Internet is forever’. Data disappears all the time. If you really start paying attention it’s scary how ephemeral the Internet truly is and how much is lost all the time.

time for all of us to volunteer at your garbage dump like that dude who offered to buy his local garbage dump because his Bitcoin hard drive might be there
