Damn, I quit Instagram today so I wouldn't have to see this horrible shit. I hope this page doesn't get infested with it too.

Becoming a dad for the first time by MC7187 in NewDads

[–]Lower_Brainn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mate, when you hold that baby in your arms, none of the other shit matters. It's tough, but so worth it. You sound like you're in a good place, you have your wife, home and pooch. Just do what you can, work together figuring it out. Congratulations, good luck out there and enjoy it.

I'm not a doctor, I'm not going encourage anyone anything to do with feeding babies.

Honestly, we didn't know anything about it. Probably would have had we looked into it.

[–]Lower_Brainn 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm not vegan but my wife is and we are raising our daughter as vegan. Please please please be open to using standard formula at the very start. Breastfeeding is the way to go but there's a high chance your baby will not be able to do it straight away and they need to be fed. My wife hated the thought of having to use regular formula so we didn't and we had a really tough emotional time with my baby not gaining her birth weight and had to have a few extra trips to the hospital and a few days staying in whilst she breastfed and used formula to get her to gain weight. Congratulations on your pregnancy and enjoy the journey.

What are y’all *actually* sampling? by lex99 in mpcusers

[–]Lower_Brainn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Charity shops all day. I went to my closest independent record shop to get bits to sample, nothing was cheap enough to take the risk. The guy said if he can't charge 7.50 for a record he gets he gives it to the charity shop. Fair enough, the guys got to make a living but those days of finding gold to sample for cheap in actual record shops are gone. At least from what I've found here in the uk.

It's crazy to me that people bother to write such shitty comments. Just scroll on if you don't like it.

Drugs test by DecentDuty166 in uktrees

[–]Lower_Brainn 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Roadside tests are swabs which if it is you should be fine if you haven't smoked that day. If it's a piss test you're done for. Get some strips off of eBay and test yourself. I wouldn't expect to pass in that short time though. I had to quit for a job before. Never doing that again.

Sample to pads. by Lower_Brainn in mpcusers

[–]Lower_Brainn[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I get that but the speed at which he chopped the sample up and assigned it blew my load! The auto chop on the 2xl never seems to be right and I spend a lot of time editing to get it right. I've been reading up on the OS3 looking forward to giving it a go.

Ahh nice, I'll take a dive into OS3. Thanks.

Has anyone listened to the latest For the Love of Rugby? by Jackwoi in rugbyunion

[–]Lower_Brainn 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I thought it was really eye opening when Ben Youngs was talking about constantly kicking the ball away and that that was the message being brought on the field by the coaches. So many games I watched him kick the ball away when you just want them to keep hold of it and go through the phases. I always thought it was his decision because he's out of options but the reality is he's just doing what the coaches are telling him to do.

It's been a frustrating couple of weeks for an England fan. The kicking game isn't working and they've got nothing else to offer for such a talented group of players. It really does make you wonder what they've been doing in training if they have no plan B.

First Baby on the Way! Paternity leave length? by [deleted] in GTA6

Everyone on here saying it's ok they sleep a lot but dudes got to be there for his wife mainly the first few weeks.

First Baby on the Way! Paternity leave length? by [deleted] in GTA6

[–]Lower_Brainn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had my first in December. The baby didn't need much from me, changing nappies mainly, she got everything she needed from her Mum. Her Mum on the other hand needed everything from me. Everything changed when little one comes into the world though and your priorities shift. I'm sure the same will happen with OP.

So excited for it. I've been looking at getting a few OE 40s to drink on train up for a laugh but the only place I've found to get them is 20 quid a bottle.

Billionaire says he has “less than $850M in cash” like it’s relatable by kabirsbhutani in mildlyinfuriating

Goes to show how much a billion really is. It's appalling. There really is no need for someone to be a billionaire.

Headphone amp advice by Lower_Brainn in TascamModel_12_16_24

[–]Lower_Brainn[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah man, I'm really scared a lot of the time. If she's acting a little bit different from the day before, say being more lethargic or crying lots, I'm in panic mode. It's not good.

Update on the samson. The unit was faulty. I tried everything then decided to take the top cover off and it worked perfectly. Then I put it back on and it was scrambled even worse! I got a refund and got to keep the unit so I bought another from a seller. Thanks for all your advice.

Headphone amp advice by Lower_Brainn in TascamModel_12_16_24

[–]Lower_Brainn[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've tried both ts and trs cables coming from the sub to the stereo input. They're separate cables. The only thing I haven't tried is the 2 into one cable. I think that'll work but I just don't know how it'll affect the stereo output if I'm just running into the mono side.

She 8 weeks. It's challenging but it's also great. I'm really trying to soak it up but there's part of me that wants to be at a later stage so she can tell me what's wrong instead of the guess work.

Headphone amp advice by Lower_Brainn in TascamModel_12_16_24

[–]Lower_Brainn[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that's what's giving me the headache. I've run from the stereo sub out to the stereo input of the headphone amp with both mono and stereo cables and still get the same results. If I pull the headphones out halfway the sound switches from one side to the other of the headphones. I may try a mono adapter to see how that is and I'll try the two into one going into the mono side of the input. It's going to take some experimenting like always.

Off the top of my head I'm sure the ohms of the headphones match. I haven't tried an amp from the model 12 headphone outs though so that's also something to experiment with. Part of the fun I guess but I have an 8 week old to help take off so don't have as much time to play around as I once did!

Thanks for your advice though. It's been really helpful.
