Worth reading the article, but for the TL:drs and comment readers:

• A patent attorney has narrowed down the list of potential candidates that could be central to Nintendo's lawsuit against Palworld developer Pocketpair to 28 patents.
• Out of those, one particular intellectual property describing creature-capture mechanics was labeled as a "killer patent" that would be difficult not to infringe when making a game with monster-taming elements.
• The said property is part of a recently approved patent family consisting of three more patents, all of which were approved mere weeks before Nintendo and The Pokemon Company sued Pocketpair.

The only way to look after land is to build a parking lot or use it to add another lane to a 32 lane highway.
You can get off with just a fine if you dig up the land and put down lawn turf. The fine is reduced if you use 5 gallons a day of water to keep it green.

That's like any FPS game ripping off any other FPS game.
Fight, capture, tame, train, breed animals.
Base building, research tree, enemy raids.
Exploration, resource gathering, survival.

I don't think Nintendo has a monopoly on enslaving animals.

I know what you mean, tho. It's always described as "Pokémon with guns and 3xE gameplay".
But does Nintendo actually have a case that will hold up in courts?
Pocketpair seems confident they can defend against it. So either they have done their research and are up for a fight. Or they (think they) are calling Nintendo's bluff.
But Nintendo has a whole pack of lawyers.

Unfortunately there are no details on what the patents being infringemed upon are, just that they relate to "Pocket Monster".

You can set a static IP on the router, disable it's DHCP, and have pihole manage DHCP with the routers static IP as the gateway

This is what "cutting red tape", "smarter regulation" and "taking back control" means.

It's all amendment rights until it's one of the racist fucks that gets murdered.
Then the police get military equipment to deal with the rising crime rates.

Unfortunately, I think you need a passport number to be able to even book an international flight.
Not like they will spend $$$$ getting to another country to be denied at the border.

Unless they drive, I guess. I feel like it's "easy" to get into Mexico, and would probably be impossible to get home again.
