    Can I run modpacks

    I read 'dedicated' graphics as 'integrated" graphics, as any card installed in a system is 'dedicated' :) The biggest drawback of Integrated graphics is they are a drag on system cycles, which lead to slower speeds than you would expect. By this I refer to the fact that while the graphics is...

    I've been slimed!

    If you are on MC 1.10.2 and have Tinkers' Construct, look at the Slime Boots/Slime Slingshot combo. The boots negate all fall damage unless you crouch while landing, and if you aim the slingshot at the ground and release it you will be flung a fairly long distance. Backwards :D Just be sure...

    Java high cpu windows 10 Infinity

    As a side question, are you a "Windows Insider"? The next build on the "fast" ring, out in the next few days, will have the first iteration of "Game Mode"... This apparently will allow you to halt or put all windows processes not related to the game being played into the background while the...

    Sky Factory 3 and Chickens Mod

    Are you sure you didn't intend to say an attention span as long as a typical animated GIF or perhaps one required to read and decode a twitter message? :D

    Any fun uses of octocobble?

    Such a place should have weird gravitational effects to really be fun... :D

    Veinminer commands

    What pack and Minecraft version? On 1.10.2 FtB packs you just use the "Mods" selection from the "Option" menu, scroll down to Veinminer and select the button having to do with changes or configuration (I haven't had coffee yet, cannot remember the exact label). In the next window select the...

    Can I get a Limerick version? :D Seriously, how about spell-check for Twitter? It only allows real words :D We now return you to your regularly scheduled serious discussions.

    Offline?

    I personally don't like apps that advertise themselves, particularly when it wastes space that would be better used for complete spelling in some limited character social media :D

    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    Give it some time... the pack has to exist before one can even start to create a quest tree that has any relation to the pack, considering recipe changes and the like.

    Also, watch today's (2017/01/13 [ISO Standard date format FTW :D]) Direwolf20 "Let's Play" on Youtube for a way to get Obsidian (two ways, manually and automated, actually)

    Those little things that irk you about Minecraft

    Many of the MC Youtube/streamer personalities checked out Win10 when it first came out and were astounded at how fast you got into the game and how smooth it ran... That probably comes from the C++ code written by experienced programmers. There's probably some of Notch's original code still in...

    I learned it before home computers even existed, in my H.S. Vacuum Tube electronics class :D

    Those little things that irk you about Minecraft

    I think things are coming together slowly... Several improvements to the basic game have originated with MCPE/Win10 versions, based on C++ code and re-implemented in Java, and vice-versa, as MCPE gets more Vanilla features each new iteration. I have seen articles where the stated goal is to...

    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    @OniyaMCD, that used to be the standard troubleshooting technique in electronics, back before everything was on a single chip. 1) Ensure the desired input 2) Check for the desired output. If not there check halfway between. 3) If the signal is there, substitute that point as the input and go...

    Would "Infrastructure Mode" be a better fit? :D

    Sky Factory 3 and Chickens Mod

    The purpose of my reply, in fact the main sentence in my reply: Many things were included to minimize "grindy" activity, such as the mod that functions like Veinminer (I forget the mod name) because the last thing live streamers want to do in front of their followers is the same silly little...

    Sky Factory 3 and Chickens Mod

    So disable it in your copy of the pack. Chickens is there because Bacon Donut put it there... He obviously thought it would be fun, and the whole point of the pack was to give streamers a fun pack without a whole lot of grind to dive viewers away. BtW, you don't have to use Chickens... As...
