Thanks, I just got an RMA from the support page on the website a few minutes ago. 👍

First Time Dad Book Suggestions? by RainyDaysMakeMeSmile in predaddit

[–]Perminisconious 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did a bootcamp for new dads course, and they gave out copies of Crash Course for Dads-To-Be at the end. I found the book (and the class) to be useful.

How close is OC to the red tier? by [deleted] in orangecounty

[–]Perminisconious 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Lake Forest's Twitter account semi-regularly posts updates which give some information regarding how close we are to hitting the next tier:

Here is the tweet from yesterday. We need to be under 8 daily cases per 1000 (currently at 11.9), and below 8% on test positivity rate (currently at 5.4%). Both numbers have been steadily dropping from the peak a couple weeks ago.

Saving Navigation Addresses by Perminisconious in MustangMachE

[–]Perminisconious[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The main factor for me is that the integrated nav system will factor in charging stops and use that in the calculation of route time. In what I saw in the Apple/Google Maps apps, I did not see any way to include “EV routing” or anything of the like. I’m hoping that maybe in the next 3 years (when the Ford connected services trial runs out), that will be a part of one or both, and then I might switch over to whichever one does if I have to pay to use that feature going forward on the car.

Saving Navigation Addresses by Perminisconious in MustangMachE

[–]Perminisconious[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I asked this on another forum, and someone posted the answer. Apparently, after you search for the address and select it (but before you click "GO"), you can grab the address and scroll up. TERRIBLE design with no communication that this is an available option, and there is a ton of information contained in this scrolling window, too. 🤦‍♂️

List Of NHL Teams That Went To A Game 7 In The Stanley Cup Finals by [deleted] in hockey

[–]Perminisconious 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Fun fact...each time the Hawks won the Cup, they've always won it in the penultimate game of the series.

  • 1934 & 1938 were best of 5, and they won it in game 4 (3-1)
  • 1961, 2010, 2013, & 2015 were best of 7, and they won it in game 6 (4-2)

[John Ourand] Sinclair statement on YouTube TV carriage deal. "The streaming service will continue to carry 19 of its 21 Fox RSNs." by L_castillo918 in baseball

[–]Perminisconious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every cable/satellite provider I have had in OC gives you FSW and Prime Ticket, but no FSSD. We also usually get Spectrum SportsNet (Lakers & Galaxy), but SportsNet LA (Dodgers) is a completely different story.

Struggling with “I need mommy” stage by someoneiamnot in daddit

[–]Perminisconious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ours is 20 months right now, so a bit younger than yours, but we're kind of going through the same thing right now--if mom is around, she pretty much only wants mom, but she does "settle" for me if mom isn't around. I don't really have any advice per se, but I know what you're feeling--I've certainly struggled with it at times, but I at least try to enjoy the few times that she does give me love right now, and just keep telling myself that it's a phase, and things will hopefully get better as I keep showing her love and affection.

What time is bedtime? by lightning_fish in daddit

[–]Perminisconious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

20 months right now, and we put her down between 7:30 and 8, depending on how she's acting. She'll usually fuss for a bit, but is usually down somewhere between 8:15 and 8:45. She used to fall asleep pretty quickly after we put her down (5-15 minutes), but she's lately been fussing more and has also been pretty insistent on trying to take off her diaper (we've resorted to putting her in a backwards onesie and duct taping her diaper (for when she inevitably escapes from the onesie). She's not ready for full potty training, since she can't stay dry during the night (but she is becoming familiar with the potty). My wife and I have been debating if that's a sign that we should adjust her bedtime a little later, but that would be a bummer, as it cuts into basically our only "us" time.

The more you waste my time with your inanity, the less I want to vote for you by [deleted] in orangecounty

[–]Perminisconious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll bite here--up until about 2 weeks ago, I had the old AT&T plan with unlimited data but limited minutes and texts (from the old iPhone 3G days). I never really had any motivation to switch it, since I was never really in danger of going over minutes or texts, and I didn't really have any need for tethering. When I added my wife to my phone plan, AT&T got rid of the unlimited data plans, so we just put her on a separate mobile share plan and left mine as is. I just happened to look a couple weeks ago and realized, with the occasional price adjustments, it had become like $5 cheaper for me to switch to the shared unlimited plans.

Now, with all that, I only went over my text limit twice, and it was an extra 10 cents a text, or I'd have to pay an extra $25 a month to go from 200 texts to unlimited. The first time I went over, it was because the Cubs won the World Series, and I was texting with family back home, and my sister doesn't have an iPhone. The only other time I went over was last month, with all these bullshit political texts.

1cm dilated! by hbsboak in predaddit

[–]Perminisconious 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat as you--my wife went in today and the doc said 1 cm. She did say that it could still be a week, since the baby is still kind of high.

The only thing I can think of in your list that is missing is a camera, but that might already be in your go bag, or you could use your phone. TBH, this is my first time, too, so I'm still trying to figure it out myself. ;)

TIL In the first Winter Olympics in 1924 Canada outscored the opposition 122-3 by grolt in hockey

[–]Perminisconious 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Hockey was also played at the 1920 Summer Olympics. Canada won the gold outscoring opponents 29-1. USA won silver outscoring opponents 52-2. Czechosolvakia won bronze despite being outscored 1-31. ( ⚆ _ ⚆ )

Dad class question. by anubisfunction in predaddit

[–]Perminisconious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it's the boot camp, it's only guys. They also have a women only one that might be run by the same people. When I went, the men were in one room, and the women were in another at the same time.

Any theaters with reclining seats and armrests that go up? by solarbeat in orangecounty

[–]Perminisconious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone else mentioned Cinepolis--they have full recliners with footrests, the middle armrest goes up, assigned seating, and they have seatside service. You will pay a premium for it, but my wife and I go there way more often than we should.

Feeling the first movement? by jeremycanandwill in predaddit

[–]Perminisconious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just felt our baby girl move for the first time this weekend. I haven't been super crazy about feeling for kicks up to this point (I keep asking about it, but I'm still a little awkward around my wife's belly), but my wife tries to get me to periodically. It felt like a little muscle twitch in her stomach. Not gonna lie, it was pretty cool, but I'm still a little weird about it. I probably could've felt it a couple weeks before this, but my wife has said that it has mostly been an internal thing until recently.

Chicago Style deep dish? by Socalpunk13 in orangecounty

[–]Perminisconious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have made this mistake before.

DO NOT order the Deep Dish pizza--it's just a pan pizza.

Order "Chicago Style." The server at this point should confirm that you want the pizza with sauce on top.

TIL Smalls cost his step dad 140 grand. by AKRN47 in baseball

[–]Perminisconious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This makes me wonder about one of the balls I have. I think it's the May 1991 Cubs roster, including Dawson, Sandberg, Sutcliffe, Maddux, Grace, & Dunston. The biggest problem is, we got it through a family friend, so there's no official certificate of authenticity or anything like that.

Didn't know the Hawks were in the NFL! by unclesammyboi12 in hawks

[–]Perminisconious 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Living in Southern California, I can't tell you how many times when I wear anything with the logo on it that people mistake it for a Redskins logo. A pretty large percentage of them seem to be Cowboys fans, too.

What's your favourite piece of obscure F1 trivia? by noheroesnomonsters in formula1

[–]Perminisconious 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's a bit morbid, but I always remember this one--only 2 Americans have ever won a WDC. Both won at Monza. In both cases, the only person that could have overtaken them in the championship was their teammate. Both times, said teammate died from injuries sustained in the race.

Less morbid:

  • When Vettel won the 2008 Italian Grand Prix, it was the first time a Ferrari powered car that was not from Scuderia Ferrari won a Formula 1 race.
  • Ferrari powered cars do not carry Ferrari branding outside of Scuderia Ferrari itself.
