I just wanted some insights from other fathers...
  • Enjoy it, even the hard parts. They go by fast and you will say one , looking back at a picture of your child as a baby when they are in High School, "I miss that baby."

    Bathtime is a great time as well - lots of laughs, fun, and (I'm guessing) with a daughter something that will go away sooner rather than later (i.e., your not going to get your hair done like your wife would). But, I have two sons so who knows - balls, farts, and the like have continued well into teens to the chagrin of my wife. :)

  • Does anyone speak hairdresser? I need help communicating.
  • So....you're close to me. Here's what you want to say - and it WILL vary from person to person regarding what you get so try to find someone you like and stay with them (or a few of them).

    "Number two, sides and back. Blended in tight. Cut the top down so it just falls back - not spiked, just falling back."

    The "just falls back, close to spiked" is the key length thing for the top. Also, them thinning the side to blend in better is a good thing and will make it look better longer.

  • Unconventional kitchen utensil you can't live without?
  • Huh. No one has said ground meat breaker/chopper.shen my wife got one, I said it was a waste, a spatula was fine, etc etc. Then I used it once....holy crap so much better and easier to get exactly the chunkiness you want from ground beef, turkey, etc. Love the the thing now.

  • Protestant
  • This is wrong. Catholics can pray "directly to God". It's actually what contrition is considered doing and part of confession. Catholics also believe you can petition Saints for intercession from God (so like, "Hey, you know God, can you put in a good word for me?").

    That second part is what many Protestant denominations have/had an issue with.

    The core part here, however, relates to plenary indulgences and is part of what drove Martin's reformation.

    (This is described - the indulgences part being what drove the wedge between Martin Luthor and the Pope - in the Wiki you linked.)

  • Spotify axes 17% of workforce in third round of layoffs this year
  • I always have (stayed woth MP3s) but its harder and harder to even listen to them away from a phone. Major issue I have now is it's a PITA to play a local library on networked speakers (Echo, specifically) w/out voice interaction being the sole means of use. I just want a tablet with a nice interface to allow me to play music on various Echo's and speaker sets.

    Bluetooth is an option, but it's not really "home automation" setup friendly.

  • New York Bill Would Require a Criminal Background Check to Buy a 3D Printer
  • Gotta stop those guns made from kids. (Per the first image caption in the article).

    A ghost gun is displayed before the start of an event about gun violence in the Rose Garden of the White House April 11, 2022 in Washington, DC. Biden announced a new firearm regulation aimed at reining in ghost guns, untraceable, unregulated weapons made from kids. Biden also announced Steve Dettelbach as his nominee to lead the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives

  • i gotta ask... why so many plex over kodi users?
  • Used Kodi for a long time (even had an XBMC) and switched when it became more of a chore keeping Kodi updated across multiple devices than it was worth - along with wanting to play easier across more devices.

    It's unfortunate, but just the UI customization that I loved Kodi for couldn't keep me on it over the lack of reasonable server/client architecture, minimal headless scraper capability (you can do it, but it sucks), and the general attitude of the forums getting very...angry/pissy?
