True multiple drives speed up reads significantly. As long as the videos are sequential read speeds can be very fast (600MB/s) even on one drive though. Results may vary.
I think mixing RAM sticks is mostly fine today. Maybe you won't get 100% performance but I don't think it will be very noticeable. You may still run into issues with some capacity combinations depending on the mainboard/cpu. Regarding clock speeds usually all run on the clock of the slowest one.
Matching RAM latency also matters for performance.
When using different capacity RAM channels matter so take care on the order of population.
There may be even better voting systems but 3-2-1 would be a nice change. This way strategic voting gets at least somewhat mitigated and might force people to actually invest some time and look at the agenda of some other parties too because they have to vote for 3 parties.
There should be a clause forcing it to remain open source.
Another clause should be that the license must not be changed.
A warrenty and liability disclaimer would be also good. Otherwise a splendid license.
Ahh nice good to know. For my use case I'd rather not distribute the certificates to all my services.
