  • Forced arbitration and picking jurisdictions is illegal in the EU so that clause doesn’t apply to Austria. An Austrian would file in any Austrian court that has jurisdiction for contract/civil matter. Therefore, the section with King County includes:

    For All Subscribers Outside the European Union and United Kingdom: […] You and Valve agree that all disputes and claims between you and Valve (including any dispute or claim that arose before the existence of this or any prior agreement) shall be commenced and maintained exclusively in any state or federal court located in King County, Washington, having subject matter jurisdiction.







  • Looking at Wikipedia, besides the languages calling it cursive it seems there are two camps:

    • Germanic languages seem to call it “Writing letters/style” (German: Schreibschrift, Danish: Skråskrift, Dutch: Schrijfletter, Swedish: Skrivstil)
    • Romance languages seem to call it “cursive script” instead of just “cursive” (French: Écriture cursive, Italian: Scrittura corsiva, Portuguese: Letra cursiva)

    Interestingly Italian calls italics “corsivo” and cursive “Scrittura corsiva” so the Wikipedia page for either has a disambiguation link to the other.
