About to become a father in Jan.

Nonsense, that's a good age.

A lot of people in my hometown have their first children at ~18 to 19 and things often don't go well because the parents aren't ready.

That is pretty young.

I'll be 35 at the end of September. I know that's kind of old to be having a child.

thats great.  i am 35, and i wished i married and had kids earlier.   right now, i would like to have kids, but with my career taking a crazy setback, and having no wife or a woman i want to have kids with, i might have to wait a few more years to settle down.

my brother is having his 3rd kid (and finally a boy) in december. so i will be an unkle for the 3rd person, with no kids of my own.   all my friends already have 2 kids each.

hope all goes well for you and get ready for the nightmare of the first year.   though, ideally, the hard time will be more for the wife then yourself :shifty:

it'll come my friend. I've heard all about the first year and it sounds a little rough haha. And after all these years I've finally made it to 1,500 posts haha.

Congratulations! Girls are tough, I have two, however, there are truly a blessing. You will shape their future relationships, and it is you who will define what a man is to them. Hold this obligation dear to heart.

    • Yeah I have a Sound Blaster X3 too (bought myself) and that is set up with the 6-channel cable for true surround. BUT Spotify and TIDAL do not support 5.1 SACD formats so I have to use Acoustic Engine for the fake surround. Apparently Apple Music is the only music streaming service with true Atmos/5.1 support.
    • I was already thinking about trying Fairphone with Murena /e/OS exactly because I don't want any AI on my communication device. For now, I've turned off all AI possible and turned on "Process data only on device" on my Galaxy S24.
    • They should lower the price but make clothing in the shops, like they've had in previous games, actually cost money. (Unless it's required for a mission)
    • FotoSketcher Studio 4.30 by Razvan Serea FotoSketcher Studio is a free creative tool that instantly turns your photos into artwork. With just a few clicks, you can apply styles like pencil sketches, watercolor, oil painting, ink drawings, cartoons, and abstract effects. Powerful yet simple sliders let you adjust every detail to match your vision, from subtle enhancements to bold artistic transformations. You can also improve your images with tools for contrast, sharpness, color, and brightness, plus add frames and text. It supports JPEG, PNG (including transparency), BMP, and WebP formats for both opening and exporting. Available for Windows (64-bit) and macOS (Apple Silicon and Intel), FotoSketcher also offers batch processing, manual retouching, and custom effects for advanced users. Completely free, including commercial use, with no ads or spyware. FotoSketcher Studio 4.30 changelog: New LUTs effect In the Photo Lab category you will find a new LUTs (Lookup Tables) effect for custom colour grading. It comes with 18 presets built right into the application (Cinematic, Kodachrome, Golden hour, Portrait and more), each with a live preview so you can see the look before applying it. Right-click the preview to compare with your original image. And if you have your own .cube files, you can load those from disk too. New "Stylize" category Added a brand-new Stylize category with four new effects. Three of them (Mosaic, Circles and Triangles) are built on the same space-filling idea, turning your photo into tiled mosaics, clusters of circles, or a low-poly triangle look. The fourth, Cartoon, is a bit different: it gives a clean graphic style with defined lines and solid colours. A little tip - set the colour intensity to 0 and Cartoon draws a pure outline drawing with no fill. Combined with the "Do not erase background" option, you can run it on top of any other effect to add crisp contours in two quick steps. Auto-Enhance and Full Reset Two small but handy additions. Auto-Enhance (just press E) tries to optimise your source photo - exposure, white balance, local contrast - for a 'dehazed', natural-looking starting point. And Full Reset clears everything back to a clean slate in one step (working image, history, LUT, script, brushes and sliders) without having to close and reopen the program. Press Ctrl+Shift+N, or right-click the exit button. Scripts The script engine has been updated to support all the new effects, with a few new commands and improved help. If you would like some inspiration, the recent scripting tutorial on this blog walks through several ready-made example scripts. The usual improvements The interface now uses new colour accents for better readability, the history gallery has had a few tweaks, and you can now open .webp images directly. On top of that, this release includes some performance improvements and a good number of bug fixes.
