  • And the democrats’ own analysis has shown that if Harris took a stand on Gaza

    Harris said she was against genocide and would do everything to stop Israel except stop selling weapons.

    Trump promised genocide.

    Americans chose Trump.

    The lesson is that to win the election, Harris should have promised to kill more Palestinians than Trump. It’s what Americans want.





  • Resale certificates are for tax savings, not legality. Anyone could and did sell their games. It’s the law.

    "Over a century ago, the U.S. Supreme Court first articulated the “first sale doctrine” in copyright law, under which a copyright owner’s exclusive right to control the ownership or transfer of a lawfully made copy of copyrighted content is exhausted after the owner’s first sale of that copy. In that case, the copyright owner sold books to wholesalers with a printed notice announcing that any retailer who sold the book for less than $1.00 was engaging in copyright infringement. The Supreme Court refused to enforce the restriction against a retail department store, which had purchased the books from a wholesaler, holding that the copyright owner’s exclusive right to control distribution of the book applied only to the first sale of copies of the book to the wholesaler.

    Subsequently, Congress codified the first sale doctrine in the Copyright Act. In its current form, §109(a) of the Copyright Act allows the owner of a particular copy of a copyrighted work to sell or otherwise dispose of his copy without the copyright owner’s authorization."

    Under many licenses no, you did not

    Many means a significant percentage of the total. That makes your statement false. License transfer restrictions were only in the realm of million dollar corporate sales. All physical game floppies and cds were legally resold.

    Used game stores legally existed.


  • Won’t help now but only deal with contractors that have a contractor license. That license number means they paid insurance into a fund so if they take the money and run, you can recover your money from the state insurance fund even if they personally don’t have any money.

    It took like 3 years for the process to work through but I got back all my money from a contractor that took a payment and disappeared.






  • There was a time when Russia considered joining NATO.

    it is totally unacceptable and this is the exact reason of Russian aggression towards Ukraine.

    If Ukraine wanted to ally with another country, that’s their right. If Russia treated them better they’d choose Russia over the EU. Just like countries are choosing China over the US.

    If you think Russia invading Ukraine is fine because it is in Russia’s economic interests then you must also believe the US blockading Cuba and attacking Venezuela is also fine.
