"Games as a service" is a mode of game creation which treats a game as a live service where content is continually added to the game after launch, often only accessible for a limited time period. This often looks like the inclusion of battle passes and changing the story with community action. Some examples for "Games as a service" include Fortnite, Helldivers 2, World of Warcraft, Anthem, Concord, Highguard etc.

The Premier Boxing Champions (PBC) model operates as a decentralized, fighter-advisory system rather than a traditional promoter. PBC fighters are independent contractors, meaning they retain the right to negotiate fights across multiple television networks and streaming platforms (such as Showtime, Fox, or Amazon Prime).

In contrast, traditional promoters like Top Rank and Matchroom Boxing sign fighters to exclusive, long-term contracts and typically partner with a single media company (Top Rank with ESPN, and Matchroom with DAZN). These contracts give promoters control over fighter's matchmaking, scheduling, and broadcasting.

Spaghetti Planet is a liberal democracy populated by human-like creatures. It has similar levels of technology and similar societal structures as Earth. They have discovered that after a citizen on Spaghetti Planet dies of suicide, their body turns into a special kind of spaghetti. If they die of other causes, their body will not turn into spaghetti. While citizens of Spaghetti Planet do not like the taste of this particular kind of spaghetti, it acts as a cancer vaccine for humans if consumed.

For the purposes of the debate, inter-planetary relations between Spaghetti Planet and Earth function the same as international relations between states on Earth (i.e., bilateral trade agreements and tariffs can exist, supply chains may operate, means to communicate and travel between the planets, etc.).

In economics, a market bubble refers to when the price of a product is artificially inflated by corporate or consumer-led speculative hype rather than tangible worth.
