I didn't know he died, guess that makes sense why I stopped hearing his name all the time

the problem is, palworld isn't "pokemon with guns", they used that slogan originally sure, but palworld 100% shows more similar mechanics and concepts to ark then pokemon, it's a mix of pokemon style mechanics and Arks RPG mechanics. I would say they had a stronger suit against trademark than they did mechanics side.

The only game mechanic similarity between the two is the ball capture system and the fact that it's called a trainer/leader when you battle the NPC's anything else is already present in other games.

By this logic, any game that features the ability to tame or capture monsters would be a pokemon clone. That's far too broad of a category to allow as a patent if challenged. I personally believe it will result in them losing the patent as a whole if it is that patent they are fighting with.

rokus will DoS your DNS servers if you block their telemetry, I had to disable most logging on my pihole due to that because I was getting 2 or 3 gigs worth of DNS daily logging which was almost fully the sole roku Premier upstairs. It's so bad.

I use graveyard mods for it, gives me at least a chance but lowers challenge some

paralives is so slow development though, and the lack of teaser releases concerns me about the quality. I have high expectations for it as well but starting to grow concerned

I was just about to say a comment on the billboards, like wtf how is this legal. So glad that my state has them banned lol

I recently learned not all commercial craft are fly by wire when watching a mentor pilot video, I was amazed it was legal. ofc it was a crash video, but still the fact it was legal appalled me

That's the downside of having the invisible boatmobile, they just keep coming

I'm mobile so I can't check those numbers, but they leave the sources they got for the calculations they provided, by category here

I know the numbers are pretty on point for for poverty vs living wage for my area, but like any actual research studies YMMV, but they do have sources of why they have the numbers they do, and they are by verified/reliable sources

it's not a copyright/dmca claim, they are claiming they are violating a patent of some kind, so it's not visuals or names, I'm curious if it will be a ball object that captures them, cause like if so that's so broad that it shouldn't be able to be patented

fully agree, my signature is different every time I sign, my penmanship sucks so I never have it the same, I've never been questioned on it, likely due to the fact I don't have a natural signature
