  I wish I had a source on this, but I heard that bribery of government officials is the norm. They don’t get paid much so it’s expected they take bribes. But their bosses keep them in line. And the weird thing is that it actually works kind of well to make sure things get done, compared to the gridlock faced when trying to build houses or public transit in most cities in the US.

  Except the person next to you or behind you gets frustrated and cuts you off and you have to hit the brakes and create a traffic pulse.

  How would that even work? Commercial airlines and private jet operators are different entities.

  Reminder, when you don’t do things by the book, the perp wins in court on technicalities or wins on appeal. For example, see Harvey Weinstein.

  I worked with chatgpt to since I’m not a python dev, and this is what I came up with

  from time import time
  
  class PlaySession:
      def __init__(self, data: dict):
          self.guild_id = int(data['guild_id'])
          self.user_id = int(data['user_id'])
          self.timestamp = data['time']
  
      def is_longer_than_half_hour(self) -> bool:
          return self.timestamp + 1800 < time()
  
      async def resolve_member(self, bot) -> "discord.Member | None":
          guild = bot.get_guild(self.guild_id)
          return guild.get_member(self.user_id) if guild else None
  
      @staticmethod
      def is_playing_league(member) -> bool:
          activity = getattr(member, 'activity', None)
          name = getattr(activity, 'name', None)
          return name and name.lower() == "league of legends"
  
  async def ban_for_league(member):
      await member.send("The 30 minutes has elapsed and you are still playing league, get banned.")
      await member.ban(delete_message_days=0, reason="playing league")
  
  async def process_entries(bot, entry_dicts):
      sessions = [PlaySession(d) for d in entry_dicts if PlaySession(d).is_longer_than_half_hour()]
      for session in sessions:
          member = await session.resolve_member(bot)
          if member and PlaySession.is_playing_league(member):
              await ban_for_league(member)

  This. Use bullets or bold each question so the number of questions is clear before each question is fully read.
