I mean...you can. All lawsuits start with an application at a courthouse and that application can say whatever the plaintiff wants.

Here's youtube lawyer LegalEagle reviewing some crazy ones. Like a man who sued David Copperfield for stealing magical powers granted to him by God. Lawsuits can say literally anything in their initial application.

I pull my credit report yearly. The ISP was never on it. Even if it was, after 7 years accounts are removed from your report.

I had an ISP do the same when I moved out of an apartment in 2016. I still get calls from a collection agency. The number is blocked but if I check my "blocked calls" log it's been nearly every weekday for 8 years.

It's crazy that they released it. They had early access and preorders and those only attracted something like 1,000 players. This is a game that had a $100 million budget. So few players during the early stages should have told the studio to cancel it while it was still in production. Apparently they thought they'd release it and would just jump from 1,000 players to 100,000 overnight with no changes.

It's a patent lawsuit which might have a better chance than a copyright lawsuit but Nintendo didn't disclose which patent(s) and Pocketpair also doesn't know yet either.

You're right though that any patent Pocketpair is infringing upon would also have likely been infringed by dozens of other games. Nintendo is just upset Pocketpair made millions with a game that appealed to Pokemon fans and want to ensure nobody else does it again.

The opposition Labour party expressed its strong distaste, protesting the Government’s move by putting out a statement entirely in te reo. Luxon’s office said he couldn’t respond to Labour’s criticisms, as he was unable to read them.Labour leader Chris Hipkins, when asked to explain what his party’s statement said, drew a blank. “Uh… hm… well… uh…” he demurred, staring down at the printout in his hand.

Love it

In the "other references" they link to the bulbapedia article for Pokemon box so I figured thats what the whole thing was about, but yeah it does read like accessing data on a server

My guess is the "Pokemon Box Storage" system since palworld stores pals in a palbox.

They seem to have a patent for "Pokemon Box Storage" and palworld also has a "Palbox" so maybe that?

The majority of people want a balanced budget, more spending on NATO defence, more spending on prisons, no less spending on public jobs or publicly funded institutions, but also want to pay less taxes.

I used to Reddit for memes, lulz and banter but they killed my preferred app and turned the site to shit so I bounced to the alternative, but in the last year this place is becoming increasingly fuckin negative

I have the same experience. It's even worse because I do Linux and FOSS and privacy and vegetarian but make a comment or post at your peril because people love to downvote and argue over literally everything.
