To be fair, the video game industry is relatively young, and the games that built it to what it is today did come out during the years that correspond with millennial youthhood. If we made a list of most influential films today, a lot of them would be from the 40s and 50s, but that wouldn't be because a bunch of Silent Gens showed up to vote.

IANAL, but I assume lawyers are always looking for any precedent.

If someone claims someone else scammed them (in a civil or criminal case), they're going to appeal to past similar cases. The civil case might even depend on the outcome of a criminal case against the same person. If they're actually found not-guilty in a criminal case, then a civil case probably isn't going to go anywhere. So if trump can convince a civil class action lawsuit to settle because it looks like they won't win, then he can just pocket the difference.

All of this is my own conjecture as I see it, not to be considered factual.

It's actually really surprising that Pokemon isn't on this list. I guess people forget that the gameboy games started it all.

Dude...imagine if we could convince Trump/Musk and Space Force/Space X to do this. It's like philosophy's version of the Torment Nexus!

Yeah, the rest are like "ok sure, but maybe not in that order". But BG3 and KCD2 are like 90% recency bias. Great games, but probably on par with Witcher 3 or the RDR games.

But they didn't do any research here, they didn't have a panel of judges, they just put it up to a vote of the internet. By "influential" they really meant a popularity contest.

I just don't know why that seems to include someone like Hawk Tuah girl.

I think Trump is eventually going to make the same argument she does, "I didn't know the the people I was working with were professional crypto grifters. I don't know anything about crypto, I'm one of the victims here (who happened to also make out like a bandit). They just said it would be good for the ecosystem, and we would make some profit from the value we created."

I have to assume all these crypto pardons are his team of lawyers trying to limit any precedent for inevitible lawsuits brought by people who lost money through TRUMP coin, once they've become disillusioned with the man. That, or he's buying favors from people willing to do crimes.

This is apparently a fake tweet. An archive of the actual tweet corresponding to that datetime is here.

Thanks for the followup, I found a couple of plasma-wayland packages (I forget if they were through apt or the software center, and i don't know what the difference is) and tried them out. One of them I'm not sure what it added, but the other did seem to create the necessary file for my partner's launcher to use plasma wayland. I don't know if it's a mint thing, but we always had to do a full reboot between using wayland and x11 window managers; if you just log out and choose the other, stuff would be borked.

So to be clear, you believe Jill Stein voters to be representative of the ones "actually trying to put out the fire"? Am I understanding you correctly?

I want to see him pick a female soldier at random, go 1-on-1 with her in melee combat, get his ass kicked, and repeat until he gets the message.

Please, elaborate...
