Correct, plus the fact that you can inject libraries for dealing with Blu-ray DRM into VLC is yet another reason why VLC is awesome.

I've only been around since the alpha 17 days, but I have to agree, it's such an amazing community to be a part of!
I'm not sure I could say I'm the sole producer, most of my mods are cases where the original author has stepped away from modding and I saw an opportunity to add some improvements of my own while carrying on the torch (I stand on the shoulders of giants and all). I think I'm most known for Camping Stuff and Snowy Trees, since those are the mods that I started with, but I've since adopted a few more, but if you're interested in the full list, here's my Steam / GitHub
I maintain a handful of RimWorld mods, going on about 6 years now. They're in a pretty stable and mature place so they don't take too up much effort, but I do check for Steam commens a few times a day, to make sure nobody found any bugs or major issues.
Rock and stone!

I highly recommend Orca Slicer, it's forked from bamboo slicer (which is in turn forked from Prusa), so has their modern UI/ layout and natively, as well as natively support bamboo printers. If Bamboo's not your jam, it also plays very nicely with Klipper. As an added bonus, it regularly gets new features added or ported from the other slicers.
I don't personally own one, so that's really good to know! I mostly thought of it since it checked most of what OP was looking for, without being a full on Voron. That's said, I'm not sure how much of a beginner machine the Core One will be either. Regardless, I'll add a proceed with caution on my recommendation.
Out of curiosity, what upgrades did you have to make to sv08?
(I also graduated from the Thessian Ender 3 program and went to a v2.4)
I just realized that there are some important questions that none of us are asking (it sounded like you've already done some research, and have an idea of what you want (or at least what you think you need), but just so that everyone's all on that same page):
- What are you looking to get out of the hobby?
- What is your tolerance for tinkering? Or in other words, are you willing to learn and fiddle with the machine or would you rather it "just work"?
- What kinds of things are you looking to print (not necessarily mutually exclusive categories: big things, small details, multi-color, outdoor/ automotive, etc)
- What's your budget?
Depending on how much you value open source vs domestic production, part of me thinks that you may want to consider the Sovol SV08. Sovol is based out of China, but that printer is basically a Voron 2.4 modified for mass production (ie much of the printer comes preassembled), and because of it the printer is very open source, as in here's the GitHub repo. My only major concern would be that the machine ships with a non-standard hot end, however I recently learned (Here) that the community already has a mod to fix that. You also gain a much bigger build volume, for a fraction of the upfront investment. (Edit: That said, it may not be the most beginner friendly machine in existence (see replies))
I'm also somewhat hesitant to recommend a machine that isn't out and doesn't really have any reviews yet. With any new product launch like this, I'd almost guarantee that there will be a teething period as the bugs, glitches, and hiccups all get worked out (as goes the early adopter tax). Which means that you may face a slightly steeper leaning curve as someone new to the hobby (Prusa has been around for a hot minute, so I don't expect it to be too bad, but it's still worth mentioning). That said, if none of that scares you and if you're already prepared for the pricetag, Prusa's are known to be absolute workhorses, there's no reason they can't be entry level machines.
So long and thanks for all the fish...
Not a parent (saw your post on the all feed and wandered in), so you'll have to screen a few episodes to make sure the content fits what your looking for, but I know Disney has a Spiderman show for young audiences as part of their Disney Jr. lineup called Spidey and His Amazing Friends. Can't say I've seen it myself, but I'd be willing to bet it's most likely where your daughter's classmates are encountering the characters, so it might be a good spot to start your search. That said, while YouTube might have clips and snipits from the show, I'd avoid it like the plague, any local library with their salt will almost certainly have a selection of DVDs for kids that you could borrow (and failing that there's also Disney+).
Actually, the library idea got me thinking... Given the popularity of the show, there's almost certainly going to be tie-in kids books if you wanted to go that route. Probably not board books, but definitely something with pictures that you could sit down and read tougher.
