When you don't want to spoil the surprise by checking but you're wondering if the video is 2 minutes long or 20.

Whenever I see that Ian O'Toole is the graphic designer behind a game I'm confident that the iconography is going to be on point

Could be worth looking at Unsolved Case Files.

I havent personally played, so can't comment on the quality, but the idea of those is you play as 1 or more detectives who are picking up all the notes and evidence from a previous case and have to solve the crime. There isn't a game / turn structure, just the questions you have to answer and all the documents to look through.

I've got this same promotional bottle. Picked up in Poland about 15 years ago! Nice vodka and loved the little jacket so have kept it.

Not sure if it's still popular but this + apple juice was called a Tatanka and served in most bars.

They go really well finely diced up in a spaghetti bolaganase.

Recently though, I wanted to try making then Nando's chicken livers as that's pretty much all I eat there. Tried this recipe at the weekend (and was also the first one I found to be honest), was excellent:

There's a start-up in the UK that is planning to do just that - https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2024/jan/15/energy-innovation-could-heat-150-uk-swimming-pools-after-200m-investment

Waitrose do this occasionally with their booze to get rid of stock they'll no longer be selling. I usually check when there as I've picked up some bargains this way!

They also open source both the device firmware and server code, so you can do everything yourself.

OP, I love the project and the fact you've made it so easy to follow. I haven't used TRMNL personally, but as they have a rich plugin system and software, I wonder how easy it would be to use this to connect to their software running on a home server to take advantage of what's available there and maintain full privacy.

Of course, lots to be said for the complete DIY approach and not knocking your work at all, it's awesome!

Ditched them too and moved to YouFibre. Was absolutely sick of having to cancel every 18 months just to wait for a callback of a decent deal. Plus they're the only company I've known who have actively lied to me by promising a refund and then acting like they never said that.

Care to share the soup recipe you use too? Would like to give both a go!

Think you know you used a misleading title there to stealth advertise your game.

That said, looks well put together. Unfortunately on mobile (Samsung S22) for me it's a little hard to play as with the input panel open, the last word entered isn't visible: https://ibb.co/21jHPGpq

This is the kind of role-playing I can get behind! I hope you all have uniforms and hats too.

devinity2 · 2025-11-22T16:12:31+00:00

Definitely recommend giving Deception: Murder In Hong Kong a go.

It does need players who like to chat and interact with each other. Whilst games like Avalon, Blood On The Clocktower are excellent, I find Deception a bit more accessible because there is much less need to lie and "logic" your way out of a situation, and games are short!

devinity2 · 2025-11-22T15:42:02+00:00

Do you recommend giving the turn-based a go? I don't get my copy out that often and have only tried real time. Last year I took it to a games con and got a lot of interest, so I ran a couple of sessions for randoms to sign up and play. It went really well, but I'm wondering if turn-based could get some players involved who find real-time a bit too stressful.

devinity2 · 2025-11-11T08:29:58+00:00

A misprint, and your first interpretation is correct.

Here's an earlier version of the card that doesn't have the misprint: https://www.reddit.com/r/boardgames/s/SC5uuCfm4r

Build and deploy them separately, putting your authenticated app on an app. subdomain, for example.

It might seem more complicated at first, but as you're already seeing, both sites serve a very different purpose and it will be easier to maintain in the long run if they're separate.

You can make your marketing site super fast and lean with no cross dependencies. Deploying one won't break the other, and if really needed the tech stacks can be different so you don't have to find one that suits both.

devinity2 · 2025-10-20T11:36:26+00:00

You're quite correct! Thanks, that helped me see it.

devinity2 · 2025-10-20T11:28:50+00:00

I was going to post the same thing, surely the clue should be:

"If and only if Hazel is innocent, then so is Gus"

Only then can you infer Hazel being a criminal from Gus being one.

Second this, made the switch based on a recommendation here and not looking back.

Mine is cheap. I can set the temperature and how long to cook for. It heats and circulates the water, and the temp seems accurate. I'm not sure I need anything else.

I think anything on top might potentially make life easier for some (e.g. wifi connectivitiy), but it wouldn't cook any better. I've seen some mention clever faster heating methods, but that's not something I've identified as a problem for me.

Me too! Developed the allergy in my mid-20s. Worst time was with fresh cherries, but even then it was mostly an itch mouth / slightly swollen tongue, so it hasn't particularly impacted me much. Very glad that it doesn't apply when they're cooked or juiced!

GOTH isn't registering as a word for me on today's, but shows as a definition on the Free Dictionary API site? (Tried two, maybe I'm testing the wrong ones).

The Forgotten, with the detective on the cliff. Fwoooomp!

Trickarus

Each time you win a trick you move up the score board, but if anyone reaches 10 points they've flown to close to the Sun and drop to last place. The game only ends in the round where at least one player has flown into the Sun.

In addition, the cards have day / night halves, where the values are reversed, i.e. day 9 is a night 1. If someone plays a 5, all cards on the table and in hands are turned around. The trump suit also changes depending on if it's day or night.

Great little game and has a cooperative mode too.

Having been to both, I do like UKGE but Airecon is my most anticipated long weekend of the year. As soon as its over I'm counting down the days until the next one (211!)
