    I’ve never actively tried to solve one. I’ve done it a couple of times but it’s just from blind fidgeting. I actually broke my first one from use. Actually not true, my first one ever I took apart at 11 years old to see how it worked. Didn’t disappoint.

    I spent some time in Budapest years ago and bought a sweet ass rubics box or whatever. Locals said dude that invented it was from there? Some dude on the street was making them and back then my American money made me nearly wealthy by exchange so I paid him more than double what he asked and I still felt I was ripping him off. Couldn’t believe the intricate work like that for such a small amount of money at the time. Wish I still had that box.
