"Never in history" - What the OUN did in West Ukraine doesn't count as terrorism in your books?
A better guess for a country that has "never ever" had a terrorist attack "in history" would probably be Liechtenstein or Andorra, although I did not verify this claim.
the worst outcome for the comp that seems somehow imaginable is a temporary airport closure after an attack happens directly before the comp, thus keeping quite a few people from arriving, but even such airport closures are usually over after 24 hours.
Mathematicians do know the difference, it's some physicists who never bother to distinguish the Lie Groups from their Lie Algebras.
Don't blame others for not understanding you when you randomly exchange terms which have an accepted distinct meaning. And don't exchange these terms for "mortals"...
I'm a theoretical physicist with some background in QFT and I'm mostly like: "What is this I don't even". I am reading lots of buzzwords with lots of vague descriptions and I don't understand what's going on (But maybe if I take a few hours it will work out, I don't know).
However, blah,
you...
I usually always have one or two cubes in my carry-on baggage (often I travel only with carry-on baggage within Europe), and I've never had problems.
Once, when traveling to Wroclaw for Euro 2012, a security guard got confused when looking at the x-rays of my backpack, but his colleague...
Among others, probably the way I do the Ga perm:

Believe it or not, Feliks got that from me :cool:
Also, this OLL: f R U R2 U' R' U R2 U' R' f'. I can do it really fast. Rob Yau found the alg but he is not as fond of it as I am :>
SCNR: The German record in 3x3 avg was 13.04 in 2009, which was somewhere around 50th-60th in the World Rankings iirc. Back then that was a great average, but "top-level"... In the end, Lucas was the fastest German, and you can't really argue for Worlds being in Germany because of Lucas :P
(I...
Maybe they show you different prices depending on your IP location. Or depending on the currency.
I know that it used to be the case if flying from Zurich, if you search for prices in CHF as opposed to Euros the nominal value of the price was doubled (this shouldn't be the case anymore, as...
I should really stop reading this thread.
In the spirit of the community: 90% of the cubers that go to world championships don't go there to win. They go there because they want to meet people that are not the ones they usually meet at their local competitions. When Worlds is kinda close to...
I am usually checking google.com/flights, because most portals in the German-speaking area are ****ed up and tell you like half the price you end up paying, so:
Zurich - Sao Paulo: 1192$, but that takes you around 26hrs. The 12 hours trip is 1400$
Zurich - Beijing: 852$
Zurich - Tokyo: 967$...
For the Top100 of the World, it's somewhere between Spitzbergen and Norway. Except if you use average longitude/latitude values, then you end up in the Meditteranean Sea, between Italy and Greece. Might be more practical.
Isn't the whole point of Worlds locations that they cycle around different places in the world?
Also, it's a great opportunity to mingle the South American scene with the rest of the community.
Of course Brazil is far away, and I might not make it, same for many others. But if I make it, I'd...
continue to read the sentence. You're German, you should be used to long sentences! I wanted to say that for the first time since 1998, I wouldn't have to worry that a team I don't support wins the finals. In 1998, I supported France - they won. In 2002, I supported Germany - they lost. In 2006...
Incredible stuff. I was thinking that Germany is probably going to win against this Brazil, but that... How could the defense play so badly?
This was not only the highest win in a World Cup semi final ever, it was also the highest win in any k.o. duel in World Cup history.
And way to go for...
late reply, but: no. it was his first yellow card in the tournament, so he is not locked.
The goalkeeper is slightly injured, but probably fit on Tuesday. And he is not locked out as described above. Thiago Silva's yellow card might be overturned. Brazil already managed to overturn a player...
In Germany, people are not that sure. The lack of Thiago Silva and Neymar might help Germany a lot, though.
I don't think that's sure yet, his injury might be not that bad.
