Random Cubing Discussion

Lol some kid just tried arguing with me in the comments of one of Felik's WR videos (maybe it was someone else, idk) that the cube is solved completely with algorithms, after I told another person that the LL is a small portion of the solve. It just really insanely ticks me off when people pretend to know things about topics they clearly don't, or when they just make up information. like one time someone here tried telling me that orientation and permutation are not independent from each other... In a discussion on cube theory

E: and he wasn't talking about BLD.

Don't argue with stupid people. They'll bring you down to their level, then beat you with experience.

Got myself a nice little skewb (is it weird to like stock MoYu?) a couple of days ago. Wasn't sure how much I would get into it, but I found a nice little alg execution with a >180 degree turn, and that's how I knew I'd be able to have fun with it. I think I might have a strange attitude towards speedsolving :p.

For STM, I think I remember qqwref saying that the number was definitely less than 20. So, I guess lower bound is 18 and upper bound is 19?

Lower is 18 (by existence proof); upper is 20 (by half-turn proof).

I'd be shocked if it turned out to be greater than 18.

I've recently, to my surprise, become very interested in the AQTM
(R2 is 2, but LR and L'R are both 1).

honestly anything with axial turns is just plain cool
