There is only one universe. That isn't an assumption. Uni means "one."

If there were more than one universe...then they wouldn't really be universes at all.

you probably forgot that a petaminx is not a cube and therefore can not be arranged with 100% effeiciency making the nuber even larger.

Uni does mean one, but that doesn't mean that a universe is the only one. Unicycles have one wheel, but that doesn't mean that only one unicycle exists, does it? We don't know for sure whether our universe is the only one or not. The word was coined long before we had come up with all kinds of reasonably possible theories allowing for or even promoting the idea of multiple universes, trying to use the etymology in argument is foolish.

And of course my calculations assumed it was seamless; because the tera and petaminxes are pillowed, it will not be seamless, so even MORE spaces equal in size to our current observable universe would be filled.

The unicycle argument is the most flawed and incoherent thing I've heard all day.

What does the "uni" in universe mean then? There is certainly more than one galaxy in the universe.

In any case it doesn't matter because the question/statement made cannot be answered.

As I said, an argument based on the etymology of a word created long before modern science came up with the big bang theory and string theory and all other such theories allowing or proposing the existence of multiple "universes" is rather useless.

You first say it isn't even an assumption to say there's only one, and then you say it doesn't matter because we don't know and can't find out for sure?
 
Ok guys, the quote chains are annoying for one, and two, lets get on topic. Go make a thread about that in Puzzle theory.

I got this tonight.

Are you one of those guys who can solve it in 20 seconds?
 
With this meaningless conversation about the universe, you have proven that cubers also say the darndest things...
I was in the shopping center today, and a bunch of kids started to record me and they were saying "whoooo. what a mothaf..cka"... The thing is that it takes me like 1:30 to solve a cube :D

PS: what's the deal with having one universe?, I mean, it's stupidly huge, why do you want more than one? ...damn...

Doing a blind solve:

Guy I dislike slightly: How do you know when it's done?

Me: Shut up.

If you convert the size of a solution (even though a solution has no size as it is not an object) to Centimeters cubed, then you could make it seamless. I would still like to see you prove it isn't infinite.

And to stay on topic, a non-cuber keeps telling me that a 2x2 is 2 sided, a 3x3 is 3 sided etc. it get's really annoying. He also bet me that I can't get it on a 2x2 so no sides have the same colours, he got owned.

I started cubing about 2 years ago. I started off averaging about 2 minutes then within a month I got down to about 1 minute. Eventually I kept training and now I average about 6 seconds at home and about 11 seconds at competitions (understand the stress and nervousness before you start flaming). I'm in the top 5 cubers in the world now. I use type D DIY cube.


Just found this on UPSB xD

So? What's was that for?

On topic: my mom wants to throw my cube off the window... :mad:

HAHA, he would be in the top 3 with home averages like that lol.

I already did convert it, but it wouldn't be seamless because you cant perfectly stack a bunch of pillowed puzzles next to each other.

And seriously, I already said we have no way of knowing whether the universe is infinite or not, we can only see so much of it - we don't have a clue what is beyond that. When I say nobody knows, neither you nor me, how big the universe is, and you tell me that i need prove it isn't infinite otherwise it is, you're making a logical fallacy. And as I already rephrased it in more detail before:
There are enough combinations on the petaminx that, if you had one petaminx in each positions, they would fill up the currently observable universe X times.
And it is CLEAR that the currently observable universe has a specific size.

All you're really picking at is technicalities, you know full well what the actual terms of the math are...
 
Lol I pwnt him. He says he is Yumu and averages 6 seconds at home, but 11 in comp lol. He also says mats averages 7 and Yu averages 6 lol.

Oh and ALSO, his profile says he is from California


Pretty funny stuff.

Obviously you don't think before you say. I said 6 second average. Not I always average 6 seconds. All other top cubers have also averaged 6-8 seconds at least once.

Yes they have. I know Yu personally, he's averaged 6 before. I believe Erik's averaged about 8 and Mats averaged either 7 or 8 I forgot. And my name is Yumu Tabuchi, I'm a resident of Japan..Sorry, my English isn't best..

And if anyone wants to help out, feel free to flame him :D
