  • Publication number: 20250050207
    Abstract: A metaverse application receives user input from a user during gameplay of a virtual experience. The metaverse application renders a first game state of gameplay of the virtual experience on a user device based on the user input, wherein the first game state is described by a set of properties. The metaverse application generates a list of changes in properties between the first game state and a second game state, wherein the second game state occurred before the first game state. The metaverse application receives a request from the user to replay the second game state. The metaverse application renders the second game state of gameplay by reversing the list of changes between the first game state and the second game state.

  • Publication number: 20250033843
    Abstract: A lid for a container including a lid body, a movable arm, a first magnet unit coupled to the movable arm, an actuator, and a second magnet unit coupled to the actuator. The actuator is movable between a first and second position. The movable arm is movable between a sealing position, in which a drinking opening of the lid body is sealed, and an open position, in which the drinking opening is not sealed. When the actuator is in the first position, at least one of a biasing force and an attractive magnetic force between the first and second magnet units hold the movable arm in the sealing position. When the actuator is moved toward the second position, a repulsive magnetic force between the first and second magnet units causes the movable arm to move toward the open position.

  • Publication number: 20250033844
    Abstract: A lid for a beverage container including a lid body defining a drinking passageway extending between a drinking opening at an upper rim of the lid body and a drinking passageway inlet at an interior of the lid body. The lid includes an actuator accessible from an exterior of the lid body and a sealing apparatus coupled to the actuator and located at least partially in an interior of the lid body. The actuator and the sealing apparatus can slide relative to the lid body between a sealed position and an unsealed position. In the sealed position a sealing member of the sealing apparatus contacts an interior surface of the lid body around the drinking passageway inlet to seal the drinking passageway.

  • Publication number: 20250009171
    Abstract: Rotisserie forks and a basket for use on a motorized elongated spit rod having a central axis and a sharpened tip, wherein the forks or basket have a) a split shaft collar having an opening that slidably receives the spit rod and has an inside diameter, and b) a lever-action quick-release clamp that surrounds the shaft collar, has open and closed lever positions, and moves between its open and closed positions in a direction perpendicular to the spit rod central axis. When open, the lever enables the shaft collar and fork or basket to move along the spit rod central axis. When closed, the lever reduces the shaft collar inside diameter so that the fork or basket does not move along the spit rod central axis during rotisserie grilling. The lever does not lengthen the forks or basket along the spit rod central axis when moved between its open and closed positions.
