404 on first link…

Edit: nevermind, it's just that you included a dot at the end of the link.

Hopefully just a self aware ironic and in bad taste joke about her heritage.

I assure you it's very much worth it. If you watched too much of it, then it's probably best to give it some time before diving into the game, yes.

I'm not one to usually play the latest games, but a friend recommended Chants of Sennaar and I've finished it in a few days between this and last week.

It's been a very fun experience and I hesitate to say more because it's that kind of game that is best to go in blind. Just know that it's about figuring out language in a point and click adventure game which has some breathtaking architecture, scenario and cultures.

Diablo 2, Dwarf Fortress, Majora's Mask.

Not in any particular order.

Well, he said he is not being funny, not that he is not trying to be.

I’m using https://www.speedcubedb.com/a/3x3/OLL atm

I didn't know about this site and, just from skimming it a bit, I'm impressed. I've just come back to cubing after a 3-year long pause and didn't catch up with the times, so thanks for the link, I've bookmarked it also.

Which is a great little resource, just a pity it’s on Reddit.

Yeah, sucks to be a cuber and wanting to be away from Reddit, because the r/cubers sub was actually one of my favorites.

PLL just makes my brain hurt, hopefully OLL will help with that.

It definitely will. Some PLLs are just combinations of shorter OLLs (take the T perm, which is a sequence of a T OLL and a fish-shape OLL), so it'll definitely help you out. Also, the fact that there're way fewer algs in the PLL set will make it a breeze (hopefully) after you grind through OLL, so maybe that'll help out your motivation. Still, I think it's a bit odd to learn OLL first, but it seems fine and even good now that I think about it.

thoughts and prayers

Milei isn't the front-runner like Bolsonaro was in '18 or '22. But the dynamic is comparable.

I actually meant 2018, lol. Brain fart.

There's a standing belief among western pollsters that Massa is at his ceiling of support and all the third-party voters will consolidate around Milei. No idea if that bares out. But its definitely possible.

I really hope that's just propaganda. Though I've come to expect some really bad things from South American voters since this last fash-conservative wave of elected candidates.

Huh, I've always seen people recommend learning PLL before OLL. Hope that's going well for you, anyway. I'd recommend you learn algs that work well for you rather than whatever your source suggests (check some algs out over on algdb.net).

Also, you may want to check out the Speedsolving Forums. I've used them and here to supplement my lack of visiting the cubing subreddit.
