        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.

    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.
