I've heard that a bunch of the 110+ year old people just lied about their age to get senior welfare after all the records got destroyed in WWII. And like, fair enough, get your bag, but it's funny when they have to pretend to be comically old in 2026 for some shit they said in 1950.

Although saying all that, I'm not sure Denmark would have had significant destruction the way a lot of other European countries did, so maybe I'm just talking out of my ass here...

    I wonder if enough laws like this pass, will it force devs to reconsider the calculus on releasing online games? "Functional" could entail paying for a server to run the game forever, or dramatically changing your backend to let people host their own.

    DE had on the order of magnitude of 100 of millions of dollars in sales.

    Sure, but it also had millions of players. It'd end up paying out like one of those class action settlements where everyone gets like $12. I would hope the actual developers have some kind of profit sharing going on, though.

    What exactly are you looking for here? I don't feel like involving players any more than they already are in this setup would be a good idea, knowing the average gamer. Wouldn't imagine this game will sell enough copies for profit sharing to hand out anything significant either.

    The person posting was Roberto Grijalva, a prison guard working at the prison where Epstein was jailed. His name is listed on page 88 of the above document.
    See page 851 of this other pdf with proof of his employment. This apparently did not result in him being fired, as an inmate sued him in 2023 for use of excessive force.
