  • Basically, you’re just looking for PC game stores that carry free games other than Steam, right? In that case, Itch.io is the main place to look. Beyond that, games will primarily be distributed on their developer or publisher’s website. Piracy probably won’t be an easy option, as people aren’t going to put in the work creating/uploading pirate copies of a game thats easily available otherwise.

    Edit: Also, I think you may be able to use SteamCMD (Steam’s non-launcher, CLI tool) to download the game if its DRM free.

    Something like this in SteamCMD:

    force_install_dir <install directory>

    app_update <app id> validate



  • I mean, if you’re worried about people spreading misinformation using out-of-context/editted screenshots, there isn’t really any reason to single out AI. Honestly, its far easier to just fake a screenshot directly, or use HTML editting than it is to coach an AI into saying what you want, than editting that. Not only that, as well as being easier, its also more effective, given that prompts can also be edittor, or AI as a “”“source”“” can be bypassed all-together, insted altering primary or otherwise verified sources directly.

    Don’t get me wrong, AI is terrible for misinformation, but this post has nothing unique or specific to AI - you could literally replace all references to it with with Microsoft Word, or even a pencil and it would make zero difference.
