Computers: Not Just For Porn Any More

After 30 years and a lot of computer work, researchers have determined that the Rubik's Cube can always be solved in 20 moves or less. I'm not even kidding, a research team, combined with the power of some Google computers, has spent THIRTY YEARS working on the Rubik's Cube algorithms.

I'm pretty sure I gave up after about 20 minutes sometime in the mid-1980s. That's dedication my friends. If you've got a hankering to play with a Cube now, I found a virtual Rubik's Cube simulator online. Or you can get an officially licensed version for your iPhone. I'd rather poke my eyes out but hey!

Now can we have these guys harness their brains and computer gigawatts for something useful? How about the cure for the common cold? Anyone?
