Lately I've been busting my brain on a Rubiks cube
So far I've only managed to finish one side of the cube and thats where I'm stuck T.T
So has anyone here ever completed a rubiks cube?
No one gives a shit what trite garbage you write here.

Doesn't that somewhat defeat the purpose of the exercise?

Well, you could always memorize the set of moves that will solve any cube and just use those. It'll solve it, but it won't be as fast as the experts. Btw, I can solve the cube, but not that fast. I was into it avidly in the 8th grade, but stopped doing it much since.
The harder ones are the cubes with pictures instead of colors
A just ruler amongst tyrants
Me myself, no.
I've never completed one.
My friend however? He can complete it in less than 30 seconds. He's even got a 5x5 Rubiks cube and a triangle shaped puzzle that he can too solve.
He told me he learned the way to complete them with tutorials on youtube. There are certain steps you have to do if you want to complete it. Something like gathering certain colours in certain places on the cube and going from there. I dunno I've never been interested enough to learn its algorithms. What I do know however, if you want to complete it, completing one side and trying to go from there will get you nowhere 🤣

Kind of easy...
It takes a bit of time to figure out, but once you do,
solving it again gets really simple 😐
(I don't mean to sound like a smartypants. I just happen to be good at them because I really liked them when I was younger).

I frustratingly solved a cube with Pochacco on it.
Took me a while, I dare not mix it up again. xD

theres actualy compatitions for how fast you can solve a rubiks cube puzzle. I think the world record for an odinary sized one is something like 9 seconds 🤣 Think about that the next time your stuck...
Theres a techniques to get blocks were you want. If your good at maths aparatly it should be a cake walk.

I believe in letting people do as they wish, as do I myself. Sometimes, of course, what I wish to do is kill them and they do not wish to die. This gives life interest.

I don't think I have.
Played with it a couple of times when I was little and then it was gone.
And that's about it. I really don't remember. 🤣
Hrodulf and Bjornolfr, you will not be forgotten.

nope! it's fun to play with and that's it. i think if i were to take it seriously and try to complete it i would go insane from frustration. 🙂
It's probably IS the "Greatest Puzzle". There're tons of people out there who can do the puzzle within ten minutes so some people don't really think it's really all the great. There are thousands and perhaps millions of combinations but no matter how you solve it, it always ends up the same way. 😀
D'oh!
