Love Letter. A very quick game with just 13 cards. Games take about 3 minutes so you can play multiple rounds if you want. Suits 2-6 players (best at max 4 in my experience). Generally very popular and easy to learn.
Comes in dozens of themes as well, if you don’t like the “princess in a castle” theme. You can find Batman, Cuthulu, The Hobbit, versions depending on your preference.
OnShape is my go-to. It’s what I taught my students when I was a TA for an introductory engineering class at college, and they could pick it up in about a day.
Can do just about anything a “professional” cad suite does, but it’s free, works in a browser, and is generally so much better designed so you don’t have to fight against the UI to get anything done.
You were into Warhammer at age 4? Man, I couldn’t even read.

Fediverse@lemmy.world•[Feature Request] A Package Manger... for CommunitiesEnglish
131·3 years agoThe way I picture this is by letting communities have some sort of “partner communities” listing. If mods of games@xyz decide they like the content of games@abc, and gaming@123, they add those communities as “partners” (perhaps those communities have to accept which in turn adds games@abc as their partner). Then, when any user subscribes to one partnered community, they also become subscribed by proxy to the others, and begin to see posts from all 3.
This helps smaller communities piggyback on the success of willing larger communities and gain a bit of visibility as well, which should encourage growth of each partner so smaller ones don’t just die out.
Communities can “unpartner” at any time, in which case users would only remain subscribed to the one they originally selected. And of course, users could explicitly block any of the partnered communities if they don’t want to see the whole set.
The theme is very minimal. I think the premise is “someone is trying to sneak a letter to the princess. Guess who has it? The guard? The maid? Etc.” It’s just a deduction game.
But there are also loads of “themed” versions if you prefer. Batman, Cthulhu, Munchkin, Santa Claus, Legend of the Five Rings, The Hobbit, Marvel, etc.
And since there are only 13 cards, you could easily re-theme it with a Deck of Many Things or something.
Others can correct me if I’m wrong, but PLA the plastic itself is food safe. As in, you can put it in your mouth and it’s fine. The issue comes from the 3d printing process which tends to create small pockets and porous surfaces where microbes can hide and grow once it gets wet, kind of like a sponge. So you could print a single-use fork and eat with it, but don’t reuse it later.
I think an insert for cutlery would be fine since you aren’t going to be getting it wet or putting it in contact with your mouth or food.

Autism@lemmy.world•Yes. Actually, I think that would be lovelyEnglish
11·3 years agoConversations with my spouse are almost entirely of the following:
- planning and coordinating
- infodumping
- little love phrases (“I love you.” “You are a good wife.” “Come give me a kiss.”)
- listening silently while my wife shares the latest gossip and about her day
- spontaneous deep conversations
I love her.

boardgames@feddit.de•Deck building + racing. What's your favorite?English
1·3 years agoWhat about something like Aeon’s End? Not racing on a map, but racing against a clock, because the big monster is going to destroy the world if you are too slow.
Awesome deck building, but an extreme sense of urgency.

boardgames@feddit.de•Stranded on an Island, you can take two games, which ones do you choose? (you are not alone)English
1·3 years agoI had some other games in mind, but honestly, none of them would have the longevity that Netrunner does. This is an excellent choice.
Are you looking for separate games to play in between roleplaying sessions, or games to play “inside” the roleplaying game?
One game that comes to mind is “Love Letter”. A fun little card game that involves a little bit of deduction and bluffing but only takes about 4 minutes.
Is there a particular product that you have in mind as an example?
Why plastic washers instead of springs? Is the bed sagging due to the washers deforming with heat?

1·3 years agoOh interesting. Kosher is a whole market I didn’t even think of with Beyond Meat.
Is cultured meat considered “real meat” or “kosher” for your purposes? (I hope I’m using the term correctly)

4·3 years agoI’m mostly looking for advice working with Anki. The LearnJapanese subreddit seemed to have quite a bit of expertise setting up unique Anki stuff but that’s kind of a niche within a niche.
I’ll see if those other communities have any input first. Thanks!
