    I know what a speed run is, but what’s an any%?

    It's how they categorize different run types.
    "any%" means you just need to "beat" the game, you can use glitches, and skip large sections and whatnot.
    "100%" means you need to collect all things, unlock all of the things, or hit all checkpoints, whatever "doing 100% of the game" means for that game.

    There are also "meme" categories for some games like "sex%" in Baldur's Gate 3, where it's the fastest time to have sex after starting a new game. Right now it's just over 2 minutes.

    Any % just means that you wouldn't have to collect all collectibles or complete all side quests.

    More specifically - see the credits by any means necessary.

    You do not need to fight any bosses or even play the actual game, necessarily.

    The Pokemon Yellow Any% never has you leave your house.

    The Baldur's Gate 3 Any% likewise doesn't have you fight anyone important and is over in less than 5 minutes. (There are Act 2 spoilers. Yes, you can reach Act 2 in under 5 minutes.)

    One of these suits, filed earlier this year, invokes an arbitration clause in employees’ contracts that, according to Mashable, leaves Musk’s company on the hook for $1,600 in arbitration fees per two-party case, but only requires that former employees pay $400. With over 2,000 cases, the social media network’s arbitration bill alone comes in at nearly $4 million.

    X has reportedly refused to pay those bills, either—arguing that it hasn’t required the former employees to move their disputes to arbitration. Now, ex-staffers have filed another lawsuit demanding the company pay the fees associated with their original filing.

    X marks the spot of Musk's downfall.
