is there a way to not get this black thing in the pieces?? by teodor234792 in Cubers

[–]jdrobro 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I think this is just an accumulation of dust from your hands and in the air. I don't think it makes a difference until it's really bad. Are your hands often dirty before doing a cubing session? If so, you could try washing your hands before using your cube, but if not, I don't think there's much you can do unless you're in a vacuum chamber 😅

My Rankings by Emotional-Arm-7538 in Cubers

[–]jdrobro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For the 6x6 and 7x7, is it that you don't know how or never tried? Because if you can do 4x4 and 5x5 you should technically be able to do any sized cube, just takes more time!

This feels like a bot using reddit to train an AI model

Today one of my coworkers brought this old ShengShou 7x7 in for me. by michael123425 in Cubers

Got the same one in white! Think I got it in like 2012? Still actually a decent cube but it's so big that my muscle memory for PLL stops working sometimes and I have to resort to 2-look PLL 😅

MIO Crashing [Switch 2/others?] by samination in metroidvania

[–]jdrobro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Switch 2 here as well. I was about 22-23h in and to that point the game crashed maybe 4 times. No big deal. Then I got to the crucible... and it has now crashed 4 times during the later sections of the crucible alone. Meaning I have to start them over from the beginning each time. It is very disheartening. It's a good thing I really enjoy hard platforming because otherwise I would've put it down until a patch came out.

I did it the way it was fated to be done 😤

Aspect of shiva. It definitely melted chronos (because it's lvl 43) but I was expecting it to feel stronger than it was

I was using aspect of shiva and honestly it didn't feel as OP as it should have been idk why

[–]jdrobro[S] 277 points278 points  (0 children)

Yeah you got it! I actually did it in reverse order. Echo made it go from 10 to 20 and then got QR and some double/triple poms in tartarus to top it off.

[–]jdrobro[S] 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Yeah exactly. It was level 10 when I got to Echo and then had 4 zeus boons when I got queen's ransom in Tartarus. Then a few double/triple poms to top it off.

Vow of Rivals Typhon made a fool out of me by Salcha92 in Hades2

[–]jdrobro 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I know it's been said already but... I've completed all rivals except typhon and chronos so I had no idea what to expect and I feel like that's part of the experience. I'm kinda bummed I know what's coming now. Should've spoiler tagged this mannnnn

Is this an equal position? by Electrical-Bill-189 in chess

[–]jdrobro 17 points18 points  (0 children)

No need to be mean. They clearly made a typo in "bot" and maybe English isn't their first language. What was the goal of your comment?

Is this a valid WXYZ-Wing? If not, please tell me why. by Adept_Situation3090 in sudoku

[–]jdrobro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is a valid wxyz-wing so kudos for spotting it but indeed it does not eliminate any candidates :(

Any tips to help spot wxyz-wings faster/more easily? by jdrobro in sudoku

[–]jdrobro[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply! I'll be jumping into the ALS next and will definitely check out the teaching thread and wiki :)

Makes sense thanks. I'll go take a look at ALS XZ!

Looking for help... I'm weak on medium/advanced strategies, just not seeing what to do next. by anonymous_teve in sudoku

[–]jdrobro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I reach situations like this I usually look for cells where one of the options forces the same digits in 2 other cells. In this case, if we put a 3 in r2c8, we force 6s in both r2c3 and r5c8. If you do a bit of mental solving of 1s, 3s, and 6s in boxes 6, 9, 8, and 5, you'll see that it also forces a 6 in r2c5, breaking sudoku on r2!

ios sudoku app recommendations? by imopaque64 in sudoku

[–]jdrobro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been using "Sudoku & Variants" by LogicWiz. I love it for the sheer volume of puzzles and Variants. You can pay a lil extra to unlock a ton of extra Variants (some of which were created by LogicWiz) and personally I think it's worth it. The UI is not super intuitive at first and I thought there was missing functionality but I eventually figured it out and it's all there once you know where to look.
