It's all about the small things. My picky eating nephew devouring the Sunday rump in tomato sauce, finding money on the street (okay, it was the equivalent of a single Euro cent, but still! I found money~), reworking my bot for some freemium game (and learning how to handle bash arrays in the process)...

Which freemium game? I remember running a mining bot on an online pokemon pay-to-win game

What made me happy this week: the picture of your cute puppy.

Your puppy is making me happy this week!

His name is Bauer, like the hockey equipment. He woke up twice to go outside last night, but he sleeps pretty well.

I replaced a toilet seat in our house and the new one is really nice ( at least compared to the old one ).

Curious what makes for a nice toilet seat? Mine is crying out for replacement and I have no idea what to look for

[–] graycube@lemmy.world 3 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

In my case it isn't broken. It is firmly attached to the toilet. It has a slow closing lid. Lastly, for the first time I tried a wooden, instead of plastic, core. The seat doesn't feel as cold, and just feels solid. It is the little things. The last seat lasted at least 10 years, so the difference in price between the cheap one at $26 and the premium one at $35 wasn't really a factor.

Interesting

I made a nice loaf of bread that we’ve been eating this week.

I went snorkeling in Hawaii last week and got to see the cool fish and turtles! So that was fun.
