上次公司旅遊, 同事阿拯帶了魔術方塊來, 在他教了基本的規則之後, 我發現魔術方塊蠻對我的胃口的, 所以也去買了一個回家玩. 以前小的時候其實家裡也有買過, 但是沒有人教有怎麼玩, 我想我沒有那種天資可以找出這麼多種公式的天才小孩, 所以那時候對它完全提不起勁來. 但是現在網路實在太方便了, 也有很多強者寫了很多教學文件, 所以上手並不會太困難. 所以有興趣的也可以玩玩看.

基本上魔術方塊是個用腦的遊戲, 除了要有一點點空間的想像, 玩到後面, 其實有不少的公式是需要理解甚至記憶起來的 (所以我睡覺前玩都很快就很想睡了 XD). 我個人是覺得和數獨 (すうどく) 有點點像, 也是有基本的規則, 但是戲法可以千變萬化. 不過我在玩數獨的時候, 一定要筆, 沒有辦法用心算 (這是電機工程系的通病 :p), 所以比較喜歡玩魔術方塊.

You can find out more about the new Features of Firefox 3 in the “What’s New” section of the release notes.

I found the issue that cookie still cannot be save in this release. I must re-enter my username and password when visiting Google Reader, using Gmail Manager. However I found it can be solved by using extension CookieCuller to protect that cookies.

Does anyone have a better solution?

Mozilla developers have said Firefox 3 is almost complete and they are all set to launch it in public.

The new updated Firefox 3 would be faster and would consume less memory. They have taken a lot of time on this version as Firefox 2 was released way back in October 2006.

I’ve used my Firefox 3 beta5 build for a couple of weeks, and it’s more stable than the previous beta builds. As a result, it’s time to publicly announce them now. Please feel free let me know if any problem.

PS: I know 2.0.0.14 is out. I’ll build them in weekend.
