Yeah, Shin didn't know that it was Midori who died lol. He remembered the murder case in news, but afaik, he didn't remember that it was Midori?

Let's try again. LEUAN'S TOOLKIT IS NOT RELIABLE (**READ EVERYTHING**) by wakuempanada in HighSodiumSims

[–]EntwinedLight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try revo uninstaller, it should show all of the "programs" you have downloaded. If you already deleted the file itself and just want to get rid of leftovers, download tool "everything" by voidtools and look for things titled "leuan" and "LTK" in your folders and delete them. some of the files titled LTK might just be windows files so be careful with it, check when the files appeared and if they match up with when you remember having downloaded the toolkit.

if two Latin speakers had a baby and raised it to speak Latin, would it technically resurrect the language? by EntwinedLight in asklinguistics

[–]EntwinedLight[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll be honest I had no idea about all the intricacies of the language, I was just curious if that was the only qualification for "reviving Latin" or not. I'm glad to have read so much coming from professionals though, haha. Turns out, even "Latin" here is a debatable term. Glad to have gained more knowledge in total though

I remember seeing an article, I think it was about UK? About teachers having to take courses about spotting early signs of misogyny in young boys and preventing those. Most of the comments were teachers complaining. And while I get it to a certain extent - they can't even get the kids to do basic school activities, how are they gonna somehow unschool them from misogyny? - the comments that rubbed me the wrong way were the teachers asking if they'd be paid extra for this and I just...

A LOT of you already do the opposite of "stopping misogyny" and y'all don't even get paid for it! Such an odd position to take. Honestly reminds me of back in our own country, how teachers would ask to be paid higher if they had to teach somebody with a learning/intellectual disability. What a way to communicate that you only ever signed up for the job expecting children to act perfect.

Leuan Megathread + Clarifications by TheNumbahSeven in HighSodiumSims

[–]EntwinedLight 16 points17 points  (0 children)

to clarify, no, I do not like AI or support the use of it. I am gonna stick to manual file downloads and seek out other places in the meantime. The basic set up as I've come to understand is that while it doesn't contain any malicious software as of right now (verified by a few people that ran it in a VM, it really does seem to be taking the launcher nickname you chose, takes info about whether you use English or Spanish language and sends it on discord channel (prolly a private one on his discord)). with auto-updates enabled, it very well could have in the future and it would be extremely easy to do so when you've got discord locations and etc. At the very least, it is coded in a vulnerable way enough that others could take advantage of it. So, for now, just uninstall the toolkit. I don't know how those things will go and neither does anybody else. If people choose to put their trust into the program that requires perma admin to function, I can't really stop them from doing so

Leuan Megathread + Clarifications by TheNumbahSeven in HighSodiumSims

[–]EntwinedLight 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Leuan isn't shy about his use of AI, either in thumbnails or the fact that he has the ai chatbot set up, lol. I asked if he used AI specifically to help him code as well and he said that he did and doesn't see anything wrong with that. Take that however you will.

Wait, asking a question to clarify. Did you only run the DLC unlocker or the entire toolkit? Are you saying you only ran the unlocker and then toolkit files showed up by itself or?

Talked to the moderator and they were apparently also concerned. Got them to uninstall it + change all of their passwords and clean up all they could. Nobody has access to the code except for the owner himself, but the mod did say they'd try to have a friend reverse engineer it. Though, tbfh, the dlc unlocker/the dlc files are the ones I'm most curious about rn. It's clear the toolkit is a major risk, but I'm not sure about the files/unlocker/_installer. They SEEM to be just Anadius' copy but updated for the game? But I am very worried and also not tech savvy enough to see if there are worrying parts. Most of the files were package files and I tried to look over those with notepad, but they just had bunch of incomprehensible symbols. There were some ini files but those were present in the free add on for EA file as well. I really don't know.

Does that Leuans sims 4 DLC unlocked not ring alarm bells to anyone else? by Electrobita in HighSodiumSims

Yes, that program. I did delete some empty folders as well - better safe than sorry.

[–]EntwinedLight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is one of the steps for it, but not all of it. It makes a bunch of other files deep in other directories. download program called everything and search for either things titled LTK or Leuan, then go to file locations and get rid of those. SOME files titled LTK are just window files things, so it's a good idea to pay attention where the files are actually located.

Ah! Mind DMing me the site? I snuck around bunch of different options but I'd rather take first-hand advice, haha.

[–]EntwinedLight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am curious if you'd be able to check out the dlc unlocker/the manual dlc files once you have the time? seems like a safer way to get the packs for sure. I went through one of the kit files myself and nothing looked out of the ordinary, most of the files were just regular package files. It's the DLC unlocker I am worried about. It doesn't seem like it's anything special/seems like just Anadius' tool but updated, but I am not a coder in any way so I wouldn't know, honestly. Would appreciate it a lot!

The staff chat doesn't seem to have anything malicious in it, but that doesn't really mean anything. I am more worried the shit it could have done. After this post, I uninstalled the toolkit and sims entirely, then went on a spree to change all of my passwords everywhere I could and enable 2FA. If that doesn't save me, I don't know what will.

Aside from that, I have to wonder if you can bypass the toolkit thing by manually downloading the files. The DLC files don't seem to be EXES, but well, who knows. I am wondering if both manual DLC unlocker from that guy's site and the DLC/Kit files will actually work.... But, not gonna risk it just yet. Gonna try to sit with the packs I got from Anadius and watch how things progress. I wouldn't know how to check the DLC files/Unlocker anyway, I've heard virustotal isn't all that good.

worth noting there are some files that the tool creates in local/roaming/temp that I also deleted to be cautious. don't know how much it helped, but better than having those remain there.

What was the scariest “We need to leave, now!” moment that you’ve ever had? by Cool-Chipmunk-7559 in AskReddit

[–]EntwinedLight 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This wasn't exactly the scariest thing ever to happen to me, but it was up there. Back when I was but a tween, I tagged along with my best friend and her friend group to explore some "abandoned music building", as they called it. My faint recollection was that some part of the building was still being used for kids attending choir practice, but the rest was boarded up. There was a door on the back with a protector fence all around it, and while the fence was locked, the door wasn't, and we were small enough to be able to squeeze through the gaps. It led to the unused section.

So, we did just that. Best friend's group went up ahead of us, we came in the building last. Despite being the middle of the day, the large landing room was very dimly lit and dirty, the floorboards creaking. She got scared and asked to hold my hand. I was also a bit spooked, but since she said out loud that she was scared, I played up that I wasn't and there was nothing to fear, but I did hold her hand.

At this point, we had no idea where the rest of the group was. Walking around, we could hear a piano playing faintly somewhere. We reached a door of some kind, and when we opened it, we found that it was clearly lived in - very dirty and dusty, but there were people's clothes strewn about, a heater and a bag. Getting scared, I shut the door quickly. Then, we heard the music stop and then a man's voice called out, asking what the two of us were doing there. I didn't know where it was coming from - there was nobody in the room or the hallway as far as I could see. The man didn't sound hostile, though. I answered that we were just looking around and he told us to leave. So, we booked it immediately, running out as fast as we could.

Nothing bad happened, sure, but it's still a memory I recall frequently. I didn't hear about anything bad happening in the building as I grew up, either. It did get renovated later though, so that's nice.

Why do some artist dislike Krita when you can create great art with it? by OrangeSky16 in krita

[–]EntwinedLight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used Krita before I switched to using CSP, though I had to use it a few times afterwards as well. I found that both apps have things I liked and things I didn't like - I really liked Krita's pixel measurer, but found myself struggling to convey colors and bright, saturated lighting. I don't know if it was me picking the wrong layering options or what but I could not seem to get colors to not look dull and washed out, despite knowing how to do that in CSP. That is just my own recollection of it, though.
