No. I had no idea. I've never made a comparator :) That, however, is a wonderful find. I might actually be able to do something with that, if I can graduate myself above the level of Complete Redstone Loser. Thank you, Jaded, and my apologies to KL for ranting out of ignorance. :)

It's the one thing about TE3 that I absolutely loathe, for exactly the same reasons. That's why I have levers on my dynamos right now and never let my energy cell fill completely (so that the dynamos never build up a buffer). Until I get to a point where power isn't an issue (golem tree farm...

I played with it a little bit, but not enough to write a guide for it. The only part that's even remotely confusing is the part where you tell it what to dig up. I found that the easiest thing to do was to add an oredict entry for *ore* and let it go to town. Everything else was pretty...

I have about 40 nodes waypointed in a random blob shape as far as 1500 blocks from spawn in every direction. I've encountered 1 and the other intrepid explorer on the server has said nothing about random flying-around-and-dying events I have no idea how rare they are, but it's pretty slim...

No to both. I have a friend who basically quarried 4 chunks (with a TiCo hammer) to bedrock and found none as well. It's definitely rare

Upon my first death, I started attacking the node with my pickaxe at some point (I was panicking, so I don't remember too clearly). After a few hits, I got hit in the back by a zombie, heard .. something..I think, and went flying high. Then I landed with a splat and my stuff went poof. I ran...

I've had pretty good luck using it as a basis...I mean, the last three worlds I've had to delay starting thaumcraft because of gold shortages, but it's still fairly early when I can get a thaumometer made. The most important things seem to be to get the victus aspect quickly (mortus usually...

Possibly painful. Hand cramps! OWOWOW! :) :)

This one? http://forum.feed-the-beast.com/threads/thaumcraft-4-a-quick-way-to-discover-all-aspects.33605/

I'm not seeing that. Well, let me be more clear, I'm not seeing that with magmatics (my steam dynamo is in a box until I get around to automating charcoal production). With a full energy cell and nothing running, I see a slow loss of lava from my storage tank. 10 mb every couple of seconds...

If I had a visual on the node before being sucked into the Black Hole of Oh Shit, that would have been a valid point. :) In fact, that's what I had been on the lookout for because of previous comments regarding the nodes.

I've learned that they don't have to be all that close. I have a 13 or so block wide thaumcraft room with my research table centered. One wall is partly made up of bookshelves, and every aspect is lit for me.

The truly maddening part is the loss of all items upon death. Dying is just a Thing. It happens and you move on. You do your best to make sure you can't die in lava, because it causes the same problem. This hungry node thing...I had no idea what I was looking at, and even after the fact have...

Is that a 'no, you can't tell visually in the goggles, but here are some things to try'? By the time I got close enough to be drawn in, I was too close to get away because of the hill.

Title says it all. I ended up rage-quitting my game last night because I topped a hill and was in range of a hungry node before I even knew what kind of node it was. Is it a color thing? Shape? I am only assuming that there is some way to identify them with Goggles, because the alternative...

morpheus, IIRC

Good to know, if I ever give IC2 another chance, that it's kept up with basic mechanics. A hopper on the bottom will extract finished product then? Because BC Pipes, IIRC, would not work from the bottom. Had to be on the right side.

I'm glad renewable energy solutions exist in the game. It suits my playstyle to, at some point, be able to just let my machines run without worry about running out of magic go-go-juice. It's not about being in creative mode (I hate creative mode..I suck at creative mode). It's about moving on...

I honestly did not know about the ejector upgrade. interesting. always been there or is it part of exp? (I'd argue that 2 pistons and a hopper is far from 'not very expensive' also, but that's a subjective measure)

There's no meteor mod. But there's also no real focus to the mod. It's a showcase of stuff you might or might not have used before, and while some of it has 'interesting' written all over it, some of it has 'ugh, really? More <insert useless item here>'. I'm actually looking at Metallurgy...
