Sq-1 carbon fiber vs mgc v1

​I ordered the cheap carbon fiber one since my first 2x2 was also carbon fiber and I really liked how fast it felt. I actually don't even know how to solve it yet!

​Quick question though: once I learn and eventually get my average down to sub-40, will upgrading to the MGC v1 make a massive difference? Like, could the hardware upgrade easily push me to sub-30?

Need advice: Which 70mai dashcam can survive Saudi summers (50°C+)

Hey everyone,

​I’m looking to buy a 70mai dashcam, but I live in Saudi Arabia (Eastern Province) where the summer heat is brutal. It regularly hits 48–50°C outside, meaning the interior of the car gets significantly hotter. Ideally, I need a camera that can safely withstand operating temps up to 80°C without swelling or failing.

​Here are my main requirements:

​Extreme heat resistance: Needs to survive the KSA sun long-term.

​Great night vision: Clear video quality at night is a must.

​24/7 Parking Mode: I want it recording even when the car is switched off.

​Battery safety: I need a setup that won't completely drain or kill my car battery while parked.

Budget: 150-200$

​I know 70mai has a lot of different models, and some handle heat better than others.

Which specific version would you recommend for this climate? And what is the best way to wire it for 24/7 recording safely?

​Thanks in advance for the help!

Minimax Mobile vs Desktop - Work not syncing across devices? (Same account)

I'm currently on the Pro plan and usually create projects on my mobile app. However, yesterday I decided to try the desktop web version for the first time.

I logged into the desktop using the exact same account and worked on a few projects. When I went back to my phone today, I expected those projects to automatically appear in my history—but they aren't there.

Now I have a couple of questions:

  1. How do I transfer or access my desktop project files/creations on my mobile device? Is there a manual export/sync button I'm missing?
  2. Why aren't they showing up automatically? Is Minimax's storage device-specific (local cache)?

I've already double-checked my "History" and "My projects" tabs on mobile, but nothing from yesterday's desktop session is visible.

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.

Pushed my limits today! How many tulip layers can you realistically fit in a cortado cup?

Finally got a chance to practice stacking today. I usually stick to my 8oz mugs, but I wanted to challenge myself with the tiny 4.5oz cortado cups.

This is my first clean attempt at maxing out the layers on a tulip—got a solid 6 stacks here. I managed to squeeze out an 8-stack once earlier, but it was totally ugly and deformed, so we don't talk about that one lol.

Is 6 the sweet spot for a cortado, or have any of you managed to get 7+ while keeping it clean? Wondering if I should keep pushing the count or focus on making the 6 look perfect.

How to integrate a stock market data website with AI (like Claude) for automated analysis?

Hello everyone, ​I recently subscribed to a platform that provides comprehensive data for the Saudi stock market. This includes board of directors' reports, financial statements, and key financial indicators. ​My goal is to connect this platform to an AI assistant to help me analyze stocks automatically, rather than manually copying and pasting information for every single analysis. ​I have a few questions about the best way to set this up: ​Direct Access: Is there a way to grant an AI, like Claude, direct access to use my account on this website? ​API Integration: Alternatively, would I need to create or utilize an API for the website and link it to Claude? ​Cost Efficiency: My main concern is keeping API consumption and costs reasonable. I am considering a Pro subscription, but I want to make sure I don't hit massive usage limits. ​If there are better alternatives, workflows, or specific tools tailored for this kind of financial data automation, please feel free to share them. ​Thanks in advance!

I bought 4x4 cube auso v7 single track last year but I didn't clean it because I focused on 3x3 cubes more. I searched on yt about how to clean it and found this video : https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=joPJx32A4W4.

My question is: am I going to find the same pieces on my cube, and can I clean it using easier way?
