My 6yo son yesterday during family boardgame time:
"Dad are we in my brain?"
"What do you mean son?"
"What if I'm sleeping and dreaming all of you? What if you are sleeping and I'm just one of your dreams?"

Woah, I wasn't prepared to discuss this so early, but we had a great time.

Looking for an EPUB reader for my tablet with a single use case: reading EPUB books.
No analytics. No crash reports. No sync. No cloud access.

Lunduke's argument should cause some discomfort:

For those who celebrate (or demand) a political stand from companies, media channels, celebrities, a poet once said:

"Your friendship is a fog
That disappears when the wind redirects"

I always pronounced Gemini as "Gem-uh-knee" and today a friend pronounced as "Gem-uh-nigh" so I went to check on the dictionary and it had the latter as the correct one. WHAT?!

I was pretty sure all the documentaries I watched used "knee" - I went back and watched some again, there it is.

Then I found this posted by the NYT.

I'm assuming the protocol is also pronounced with a "knee" given it's name was inspired by the space program.

My maternal grandmother would have been 93 today.

FreeNAS 11.3 is out.
I fly to Brussels for in a few hours.
Why not update now?
What could go wrong?
