IANAL, but I would think Infineon's data sheet and quote would constitute the "offer," and NASA's purchase order the "acceptance." IIANM, this meets the minimum requirement to establish a "contract" (usually called an "agreement" these days).

If the MOSFETs don't meet the specs on Infineon's data sheet, including rad hardness, then Infineon would be in breach of contract.

Is my reasoning correct?

Old cars have two headlight settings: Low-beams and high-beams.

New cars have two headlight settings: High-beams and asshole.

So the investors are being sued by the company they own shares in.

In a sense, then, the investors are suing themselves.

I'd be happy to use reddit's app if they would put a few bucks into it to make it not total crap.

Yes! The human body has the potential to do a tremendous variety of poses.

To keep it interesting for me and my artists, I regularly scan the Instagram posters I follow, as well as other sources (like classical art sites), and save interesting ones I'd like to try.

Then I run a slideshow of the poses on my home TV. I'll take a moment to look as I pass by while doing chores, or I'll spend some dedicated time actually doing the poses for timed intervals.

Aside from my regular job, life modeling.

Not a huge income generator (around $19,000 total over the last 5 years), but the pose research, networking, booking sessions, actually doing the modeling, and reporting on / posting the artwork from my sessions on my social media is pretty much a "sole passion" for me.
