How to solve a Rubik's cube. I've been able to solve the first two layers for a while, but I could never get the final layer. Watched a few YouTube tutorials and can completely solve a cube in about two minutes now.
I was always able to do one side, then learned how to do a second, then forgot again. Now my kid is in the same boat. Time for YouTube I guess, any recommendations?
found these instructions really easy to follow, the animated cubes showing each move really helped

And this tutorial on YouTube is really good
I remember sneaking away with one when the fully growns had given up many years ago, taking off the coloured squares with my teeth and putting them back done. They were stickers then, dunno if they still are.
Yeah, a mate of mine did that as well to win a bet from his older brother that he couldn't solve it.
Not sure if he was found out though. It seemed fairly obvious that the stickers weren't entirely correctly put back on.
Oh I did that too but it's much easier to take them apart, and no-one could ever tell. They just pop apart and back together again.
EDIT: I will now prank my kids.
If you take a solved one and swap two corner stickers, it becomes unsolvable. Just saying, for the pranksters.
You can't spell failure without FAI
There's no bridges over the Amazon
The opening of a new ecommerce fulfillment center (e.g. an Amazon warehouse) costs your county an average of 938 retail jobs, and the average hourly wage of retail workers drops 2.4%.

TIL that in Firefox you can select a row or a column in a table by holding down CTRL and clicking and dragging down or across, or clicking and selecting cells. Mind blown. I've copied whole tables into Excel so many times just for one column of data, it's just not funny.

Unit 731 - grim.

When the Voyager spacecraft passed Jupiter, they used Jupiter's gravity to slingshot towards Saturn, gaining around 3,500mph, or about 10% of their speed in the process.
But for every action, Newton's Laws on the conservation of energy say there must be an equal and opposite reaction - in this case a deceleration impact on Jupiter. Which was measured at 1 foot per trillion years.
You can beat a leading football country in Europe by 2 clear goals despite only having 25% possession.
Forget about the performance or entertainment. It's only the result that matters.
The words Gallic, soldier, salacious and salad all come from the word "salt"
(As does salary, though I did know that)
