Was not expecting this moment today. Glad I got it.

What an epic Father’s Day battle. I started off strong, winning the first two rounds.
Then she got Snape. She won two rounds quickly. It was all down to the final round.
The battle was fearlessly fought with spells traded on both sides. But in the end only one could be victorious.
And that was me.

Kids made me breakfast for Father’s Day. It was delicious!

Google is so bloody stupid now.
I don’t use a VPN and haven’t left Australia since 2019. But sure, change my account to “South Carolina” from Australia. That makes perfect sense.

Fun 2-player game of Ark Nova today with my wife. Kids went for a bike ride. Just a nice, relaxing day…
Except I lost 😬
Still a PB score though, so it wasn’t a total bust 🎲

The smell is incredible.

Today I made a “continental” loaf of bread in the bread maker. It was the first time I have ever used a bread improver, and it came out ridiculously tall. Can’t wait to eat it though.

Wow, Samsung. Only my closest friends call me “7613683d989a57d6abaa293bc039dbae”.

I experimented with AI to help customise my portfolio site, and I didn't have fun
I will probably end up writing it up for BTTR more comprehensively, but the past few days I decided to try and use Gemini to add features and update my portfolio site: nick.broughall.com.au. I built that site earlier this year for a job application. I liked the idea of creating something I didn’t have to pay for hosting for, lol. But originally it was just customising a template. I can’t code, have no understanding of node. Continue reading →

I made bread today while testing the Ankarsrum mixer. It was incredible.

Just watching some football and reviewing a big-ass TV on a Friday night.

Multitasking effort for the day: making lunchbox snacks while testing the Ankarsrum mixer. Can confirm they taste pretty good.

First play through of Striga in The Witcher: Path of Destiny, and my first two player game. There was a bit of confusion on Lauren’s part around the secret objectives which meant she wasn’t playing for them properly. But I did, so I won!
Ended up with a higher score than what was on the board’s track, though.

Have enjoyed watching a bit of football this season. The Bulls didn’t make the finals and lost tonight, but at least we managed to get to the match.

Another playthrough of The Witcher: Path of Destiny today. Stuck with The End of the World story as I convinced the boy to play with us this time around, and wanted it to be simple for him to learn.
Things flowed much smoother this time around. In the end, three of us tied on the victory track, which meant absolute victory was based on the initiative track - which is something I don’t love about the game, to be honest.
But we ended up playing through a different storyline and it was a good time. Looking forward to cracking into the Striga story next time around!

At the behest of the boy, today we played Monopoly. We played the Avengers version, which adds some really interesting elements that made it the most interesting game of Monopoly I have played in a while. I lost, completely, but had some fun doing it. There were still tears (but not mine).

I must have it.
Also, I want a bigger version. Maybe not life-sized, but make it 5,000 pieces. Let’s go, Lego.
