DTD1362: Desolate Oct 20, 2020

Brian Counter (@CultoftheOld on the Twitters) brings us this brilliant demo of a virtual-card-based equivalent of a board game full of fighting aliens and snappy sound-effects.

DTD1361: Superhero Builder Oct 19, 2020

Show notes

Suggested by @CultoftheOld, this one takes a bit of setup but then you're quickly into full-on superhero battle action. Desperately needs some super sound-effects, though.

DTD1357: Cube Solver Oct 15, 2020

Show notes

Finally, solve your Rubik's Cube so you can put it back on the shelf with all those nice colours neatly in place at last. Today's skill will tell you how to solve any 3x3 Cube in as few a moves as possible, normally just 20. This skill assumes you have a cube with red, green, blue, yellow, white and orange squares, and that white should be opposite yellow, red should be opposite orange, and blue should be opposite green. If your cube is different, just say "I have a different cube".

DTD1356: Crossword Solver Oct 14, 2020

Show notes

By those clever guys at wordplays.com, this crossword-solving skill could just be the ultimate shortcut to tackling those tricky clues - however CHALLENGING OR cryptic they can be.
We covered most of the commands in the demo, but for info you can also say "Next" if the first offered answer isn't correct (some clues will have multiple correct answers of that letter count, say), as well as "Wait" for a little more time before the skill closes.

Show notes

It's Prime Day, er, Days today and tomorrow (13 and 14 Oct) and there are some sweet, sweet deals across Amazon's website. You can also get some amazing Amazon tech at ridiculously low prices through the A-lady herself.

DTD1354: Times Radio Oct 12, 2020

Show notes

The Times is a truly venerable and well-trusted source of news - and now they have a radio station too. Nice.
