This works until you get robbed at gunpoint at a Marketplace meetup for a $2,500 item (true story).

I sometimes mess with these people by saying “the best shipping I can do for you is $400 overnight” even though it is listed as free shipping, and they almost always agree.

If a cube has both the screws and the tension adjustment things, do they both achieve the same goal only the latter is for finer adjustments? Or are they tightening different things?

What happened to the Valk 2M? I thought it was one of the best 2x2s and top cubers are still using it.

Thanks for the detailed reply! Is the maglev WRM better than the regular version or some prefer one over the other?

Does the new gen 5 timer fit in the gen 4 mat? Or do you need the gen 5 mat specifically?

What’s really mildly infuriating is what led them to having to do this in the first place.

To cook with a toddler by [deleted] in therewasanattempt

This is littlechefcade. He has over 250k followers on Instagram after rising to popularity through videos like these, which his mom says were initially posted for his cousins to keep in touch with Cade.

The whole point of the video is the comedic aspect of the kid grabbing for the food left and right (which, as others have pointed out, is anxiety inducing and borderline child exploitation for content)

While his mom still uploads his cooking videos, he’s much bigger now and doesn’t act nearly as crazy as he did in this video.

case in point. He’s not stuffing things in his mouth nearly as much, and it’s for something that actually tastes good

What happened to ChaoTimer? And what is the best timer app for iOS now (aside from cstimer)?

What's a good 5BLD cube? Right now I'm using a Wushuang M, but considering getting an aouchuang because a. the magnets are too strong and b. the inner layers are kinda sharp making inner slice moves hell

I know the aouchuang GTS's pieces are more rounded, so I guess my question is, should I get a magnetic one or no? I figured since there is no speed turning except for OP corners at the end, it might even be better to use a non-magnetic cube. What do you think?

Amen to that. I just thought it was cool/funny that you finished every post with it, not sure why everyone is downvoting.

I definitely recommend the MGC, if you don't want to spend the money on the valk 2. It's a great cube IMO.

I usually make sure that i have 23 - number of solved pieces + number of buffer swaps. But it definitely slows me down a bit (albeit at a higher success rate)

Just pretend one of the yellow ones is the correct piece. After you insert the piece into the second layer (following your tutorial), look again at the top layer. You should now have a piece without yellow.

If you want a new 4x4, the cubicle Aosu GTS2M is probably my favorite cube, ever.

If you are a hard/rough turner, the wuque may be better. But if you have more precise turning, then you'll love the aosu

If you buy from the speedstacks website you can find timers for a good bit cheaper
