Not sure it's a fair comparison. The spec says: "Use of the document structuring conventions... allows PostScript language programs to communicate their document structure and printing requirements to document managers in a way th

If NHL players don't already have gold-standard health and dental insurance, then the NHLPA needs much, much better lawyers. Doubt that's an issue though, or that this guy needs any help getting his teeth fixed. This is just a mea

Gosh, you make it sound like the near-universal use of secret ballots is all just some sort of misunderstanding that could be rectified if only everyone would listen to you. Tilt away if that's your favorite windmill, I guess.

First, how about if you show that you've spent more than five seconds thinking about why every democratic country on earth uses secret ballots? Why are secret ballots codified in both the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the I

OK thanks. By the UK, do you mean Great Britain? England? Something else? As far as I know (admittedly not far), Christians in the UK are about one-third Church of England, one-third non-denominational, one-fifth Catholic, and the rest othe

OK. I'm curious, roughly where are you? And if non-denominational, sort of generic "Christians" are common there now, what was the situation historically?

Can't speak for anyone else, but it is not unusual (nor new) for someone to describe themselves as "Catholic." Briefly, they usually mean that they are a member of the Roman Catholic Church. Wikipedia will provide a great dea

"Age verification for alcohol/tobacco doesn't require full identification" In my state, buying cigarettes requires presenting your driver's license, which is scanned at every purchase. Not sure about alcohol.

Thanks for the thorough answer. It is a little wacky and complicated but I agree it should be safe. I'm not really in the target market for your software but the hardware does look very nice. Good luck with it.

If you start with one SSD, how can you later make that into a raidz1 of two? Also, a raidz1 of two block devices does not seem like a really great idea.

I recognize that having kids too young to do their own laundry could change the calculus. Maybe there will be a $25K robot that can do laundry before your kids grow up enough, but can't recommend holding your breath.
