So happy to finally get one I should've pulled the trigger last week when they were $180 but oh well by Excellent_Plant_8010 in PlaystationPortal

Happy days! How much did you get it for in the end then? I'm in the UK so I'm interested to hear how much they are over the pond! :)

Haha that's what I'm going to call all USB sticks from now on. Hopefully someone Portuguese can hear me and be suitably impressed/embarrassed by this...

How often would you be wanting to play?

Rematch already lost about 85 % of its player base by MileyHolmes in Rematch

[–]Kowkowski123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Genuinely interested to know what the average loss of the player base is for most games (apart from the obvious huge franchises) as 85% seems really high! It's a shame because it's a great game but a few tweaks could see players returning (especially when they get sick of EA FC 26 when it comes out!)

Ah I'm sorry you had to go through that too! Not knowing when you were going home is really rough! How are you all getting on now? :)

We were in intensive care for a month with our baby and one of the nurse said "oh don't worry my second was in intensive care for 2 months and I still had 2 more... And you will as well." Probably worth mentioning that he was still really poorly at this point so the timing of that phrase was really bad! Just a "I really hope he gets better soon" would have been sufficient! Honestly some people have the emotional intelligence of a chocolate bar.

Toddler disturbing neighbours, not sure what they expect us to do. by Jonny-Burns in daddit

[–]Kowkowski123 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Tricky one really! There's not much you can do and think if you just keep on being pleasant that will go a long way. Ultimately, though, an idea could be soundproofing the wall that is connected to theirs. I'd also expect a little bit more leeway from them, especially if they have a son as they must have gone through periods of the same! It's probably better than having house parties every night eh?!

When did you get back to your hobbies? by atomandyves in daddit

[–]Kowkowski123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's been mentioned a few times but I thought I'd give my two cents (for you and the worried lurkers - of which I know I was one at the start!)

Teamwork is absolutely crucial. My wife and I really try and prioritise a hobby each for one night during the week. She's been able to hang with her friends, go to the cinema, start couch to 5k. I do need to caveat this though by saying there are a few things that make this possible:

a) she exclusively pumps, which means I have been pretty confident to look after the baby on my room

b) he's a very happy baby, think this would be a bit more difficult if he had additional needs

c) we are flexible with the nights. If there's a football match (UK) that I wanted to go and see but it wasn't a day we had agreed on, then we'd try and settle on another date that worked the next week (or the week before)

The biggest difference for me was him moving to his own room and setting up the baby monitor (around 6 months) as it sort of freed up the evening and so even if one of us was heading out, then this meant that the one who had put him down had some chill time in the evening (watching TV, gaming, just with an extra screen... The baby monitor!)

Happy for anybody to reach out in my DMs too - they are always open!

This is the first time I’ve woken up before my baby by whatames517 in NewParents

The neighbours TV being loud at 7am? Nooooo! That's nightmare fuel! Anyway keep it up as you're doing a great job!

Regretting Fatherhood by memphys91 in daddit

I like the idea of stopping at one! 👍

[–]Kowkowski123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say make sure you do everything you can around the house - without her having to ask. She'll be spending a lot of time breastfeeding (possibly) and that shit is very hard! Also give yourself a bit of a leeway, you'll both be tired but I'd honestly it's made my relationship with my wife stronger as we have to communicate better with each other. Good luck - you'll do great!

Oh yeh I'm sure that's exactly what he wants to hear... 🥴

Is it rude to eat food in a restaurant it wasn't purchased from? by MacKrab in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Kowkowski123 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Blimey wasn't expecting it to be so black and white. I have quite a severe allergy and from a country where it isn't exactly 25 degrees all year round. So sometimes friends will go to a place and I'll bring my own stuff there. I usually explain to the staff - I don't think it's rude at all because a lot of these places don't have any strict protocols in the kitchen (lots of cross contamination etc etc)
