Schwim Dandy@lemmy.zipto Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•[SOLVED] How do I verify GOG gamesEnglish17·4 days agoI found this on a Reddit thread, hopefully this gets you on the right track:
“I think checking for the GOG sp. z o.o signature is good enough but checking with AV can also be good. If the exe file has been tampered with, then the digital signature would be invalidated. If the bin files have been tampered with, then running the untampered exe will give the error: https://imgur.com/a/9e5lIZ7. They should be legit as long as it has the legit GOG digital signature. GOG has different signatures for older and newer games btw. You can use https://github.com/hippie68/gogcheck to check the games.”
Schwim Dandy@lemmy.zipto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•what is the point of using a reusable shopping bag when plastic bags have already been manufactured & are there for convenience?11·4 days agoThe manufacturers make what’s needed to meet demand. If demand is smaller, they make less.
Schwim Dandy@lemmy.zipto Unpopular Opinion@lemmy.world•Artists Protesting AI is Dumb.English81·4 days ago“I didn’t say protesting was dumb, I said protesting this was dumb”.
Got it.
Schwim Dandy@lemmy.zipto Unpopular Opinion@lemmy.world•Artists Protesting AI is Dumb.English17·4 days agoYour argument is “protesting is dumb because it’s going to happen anyway” which, historically, has been a bad position to hold.
I don’t know the nuances in the situation but if AI were learning on artists work then putting those artists out of business, I can understand why they might want some regulation or restriction in place.

Schwim Dandy@lemmy.zipto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•I think I'm addicted to physical touch.. 21F. I don't know how to stop9·5 days agoI’m sorry but due to lack of formatting and verbosity, it’s hard to tell. Was there a question? Is it just “how to stop wanting physical touch?”
Schwim Dandy@lemmy.zipto Political Discussion and Commentary@lemmy.world•Censorship on c/politicsEnglish51·5 days agoI see. If they don’t answer(unless they’re just terribly overrun with contact), I would say it leans toward removing something that doesn’t fit their agenda.
Schwim Dandy@lemmy.zipto Political Discussion and Commentary@lemmy.world•Censorship on c/politicsEnglish3·5 days agoPerhaps you should ask them.
Markdown is super useful, but this aspect of it is not intuitive at all.
Thank you very much for the tip, I’ve grown accustomed to the cut/paste of piefed and keep forgetting to check the formatting on the lemmy side.
I miss his hats.
Schwim Dandy@lemmy.zipto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•It used to be that when most countries were or in trouble or needed help they would go to the US for help. My question is who does the US go to for help if or when needed?3·7 days agoI know it’s very popular for the doomsayers to propose but time will tell and I’m guessing we’ll have another election or two. Perhaps even three.
Four’s not out of the question.
Schwim Dandy@lemmy.zipto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•It used to be that when most countries were or in trouble or needed help they would go to the US for help. My question is who does the US go to for help if or when needed?10·7 days agoI suspect you’re going to get mostly sarcasm and mockery tropes but there have always been countries that have allied themselves with American interests. When you say “when help when needed”, if you’re thinking of an actual war on home turf, invasion or something similar, that’s unlikely to ever happen due to our geographical position. If you mean financial help, we take loans from a lot of different countries. If you’re asking about assistance when we engage in war elsewhere, again, that would be all the allied nations.
Militarily speaking, the US is still one of the superpowers just because of the mind-boggling amount of money we spend on it. There’s not many countries that can compete with just the sheer number of US things that are designed to go boom.
Things like goodwill and assistance are currently in a downward transitional trend due to the current administration. It seems a lot of countries feel ostracized by the US due to Trump’s constant foolish and often hostile actions towards them but these types of things follow an ebb and flow, the next administration to reside in office will begin the process of patching things up and relationships will improve.

Schwim Dandy@lemmy.zipOPto Connect A Song@lemmy.world•Offbeat - The Hipsters Are ComingEnglish3·7 days agoLemmy is just like a less popular Reddit. Some people are inherently nice and some people are inherently not.
No but mine is 23 and I feel it’s too late to tell her.

This is not new. Over 20 years ago, Marines with chronic razor bumps would have to head to the medic to get a waiver for inspections. A couple of them had such a bad case, their waver would allow them to keep a very tightly trimmed beard for their entire time.
