For Windows it absolutely is in order of listing however. Typical behaviour is no reply after a second against the primary DNS results in it moving down the list.

Redundancy aside, this is more important when you span multiple datacenters and always want lookups going to the completely local or most local DC available.

TIL about the Linux/BSD not having preference though. Good to know.

But then you’ll have to go to the slam where you pay some doctor 20 menthol kools to do a surgical shine job on your eyeballs so you can see in the dark.

The earliest Elephind match for “dollars to doughnuts” is from “Nevada Items,” in the Sacramento [California] Daily Union (October 27, 1875):

P. K. Mason, the chap who was arrested at Eureka the other day for stealing a watch and chain from the Antelope lodging house, has been bound over in the sum of $200 to answer before the Grand Jury upon a charge of grand larceny. The evidence against him was conclusive, in regard to taking the watch, but the Sentinel thinks if he states to the jury that he needed it to take medicine by, it’s dollars to doughnuts he will be acquitted.

The sense of the phrase “it’s dollars to doughnuts” here seems to be “it’s very likely.” To judge from Christine Ammer, The American Heritage Dictionary of Idioms, second edition (2013), the meaning of the expression has remained essentially unchanged over the ensuing 143 years since its appearance in the Sacramento Daily Union:

dollars to doughnuts, it’s. It’s a virtual certainty, as in It’s dollars to doughnuts that the team will make the playoffs. This metaphoric term pits dollars against doughnuts as in a bet. {Colloquial; late 1800s}

The underlying idea is that you wouldn’t bet something valuable (like dollars) against something very inexpensive (like doughnuts, which presumably were a dime a dozen—if that—at the time) unless you had a very high degree of confidence that you would win the bet.
