I used to swing back and forth between Windows and Linux, but honestly the past few years it's been all Windows. Windows 7 and Windows 8 are actually decent OSes, plus they run the software I need and the games and media that I want.

I also blame sysadmins who frequently don't understand that security is contextual; you do not need the same level of password complexity for a gardening forum or slashdot that you need for your bank account. But you still see ridiculous requirements for low-security sites.

All of us. We just choose a different place to start.

This should convince anyone that open source linux software can compete with windows, given 22 years.

Actually voiding a contract is a term of art in the law and refers to a court finding that a valid contract never existed. Just because the terms were never fulfilled doesn't mean the contract didn't exist; the contract isn't the completed transaction, it's essentially a binding promise on both parties to perform. Just because performance wasn't made doesn't mean the promise never existed.

Arguing that the contract is void is basically trying to say that the promise never existed, and is a defense by the breaching party to invalidate the contract (and thus not be responsible for fulfilling its terms), not the plaintiff in a breach of contract action.

"We have grown dependent on freebies and handouts as our government tries to "domesticate" its citizenry into the role of owned beasts of burden."

What freebies and handouts would these be? By developed nation standards we do not spend that much on social welfare programs.

No, there was consideration, and the contract was valid -- KlearGear just breached it.

Ehh, sort of. A contract certainly existed because the consideration was memorialized in the order form, any email receipt, etc. There was just a breach.

Actually, that's a breach. Voiding a contract and breaching a contract are two different things.

No, it doesn't have that clause, and the UN is not free to operate, spy, arrest, or even kill anyone in the US. Just completely false.

Every tyranny is exercised by the few over the many. Your numbers don't mean much.

Like I said, dating would be a lot easier if it was me. Unfortunately, I am straight.

Interesting; I wonder if that includes Psy.D. and Ed.D. students of whom there are a large number and who frequently pay their own way I believe. I did almost went to a program where I wouldn't get funding though I could teach a few courses a semester to pay my way, but it was a relatively inexpensive program anyway (like 5k a semester full-time, and I would be coming in with enough credits that I wouldn't have to pay more after that) and I was under the impression it was incredibly rare.

Nope. Why?

Do you know how easy it is to find sex if you're gay? A gay friend has remarked on several occasions how bad he feels for straight men having trouble getting sex.
