Geeking away

Spent the day with McLovin’. He’s a really cool dog despite peeing on my leg today. The idiot raised his leg and peed on me. He’s also got the problem of not being able to shit outdoors.

Caesar Milan, we need help.

I’m figuring out the mirror cube. Back to basics and follow the steps.

1) Do the cross. I stopped doing the cross on the color cubes since I have been able to do both cross and corners together to save time. Can’t do that on the mirror cube. The small differences in thickness is too difficult to eyeball.

2) Swapping bottom row corners. I can’t eyeball all 4 corners to find the most efficient way to swap the corners anymore. Do two at a time.

3) Take my time doing the bottom cross. The extra 5 seconds of staring is totally worth it.

I’m down to about 3 minutes consistently now. Probably wont get much faster.

New rubick’s cube

My new cube came in the mail today. HOLY CRAP ITS COOL. Yeah, I know, I’m a nerd but fuck you, this is cool.

The irregularly shaped pieces makes this much harder to do. My first attempt took more than 10 minutes! I’m sure it will improve after a little while.
