Good, CTS is an appalling sweatshop of a company and should be barred from working in the US.

Yeah! It's absolutely crazy!! When legalization gets to my state I hope I have the foresight to have the planning and financing in place to be the first dispensary to open here. These things are just redonculous cash cows.

You're correct. AFAIK all those pot shops in Colorado for instance are cash based only. And have vaults built to store all their cash because the banks won't touch it. There was an episode on Vice TV that touched on this I believe

You are so right. Without giving to much detail the wife is working on a project with a branch of government. They use Oracle. Her teams biggest problems are and have been the DB falling over during updates or joins. Were talking billions o

No I am sticking to MY original argument. About my data. Packets I send across the internet are moot. In my case. You can try and sniff my packets all you like. Good luck on that. My data is still secure, still un-mineable, still not connec

Based on Googles track record with Android, and the atrocious deployment of TV on Google fiber, as well as a host of other examples of Googles beliefs and competencies, Google has a better chance of putting a person on Mars than me trusting

Really? All my ZFS pools sitting encrypted and on a private network not attached to the internet in general in my home/office? They can mine that? Wow I am impressed!

Im confused by your claim "There is no sure fire way to reduce the value of a dollar..." The dollar has lost 97% of its value since the federal reserve was created. To me, having a federal reserve is a sure fire way to reduce the

I agree. Truth be told the older I get the tinkering has lost its luster. I just want to get Sh%5 done. I don't have time to keep reading mailing lists and commit logs the first half of my day anymore to keep up on all the hacks, trick

That I get. That's always usually been the FreeBSD way(tm). Set a knob, sysctl, something that allows you to have that behavior if you need it. It's kind of odd that is not the case here. Also FreeBSD supports boot environments no

Google sells your data for $$. It is their main income stream. Apple doesn't. They don't want your data and don't enter markets in fact because they don't want to monetize you or your data.

Don't get me started on Google. They are so huge only because they had a halfway decent search engine. Their Android OS as you note is a mess. And you think that's bad? You should try their TV/DVR app on their Google Fiber se
