    Eu Storage options, Mfsu,Aesu,Lesu,Idsu..

    I really wanna like the LESU, but I'm not sure when you'd actually want to use it. The biggest problem is how insanely weak the output is. You need to drop a bunch of blocks to even get it to low voltage.

    Looking for a good Auto Maceration and Smelting Line.

    And route it. And cut energy routes to disable machines automatically. And it's easier to know when a battery is empty (T2 and greater storage does this for free). And the cabling is easier to make. And the cabling is actually cheaper once you get infrastructure in place to resource-multiply...

    Most Powerful energy source there is?

    You have the right to hold any opinion, and state that opinion. Other people may then hold opinions about your opinions, and then state them. This is called, "engaging in conversation" and you will find it is a recursive process many humans do. Some do it because they feel obligated, some do it...

    Future of Mods With 1.5

    It's not cheaty at all. This is in fact how I made my very first nether portal and how I thought you were supposed to do it! It was really fun to build the mold then bring the lava in. You could even "start" the portal on the last point by using wool in the frame as part of your molding.

    Dumb Modular Powersuit Tricks

    Argh. You make me want to start modding so bad. 1.5 is out, that sword of damocles no longer hangs. We're just so busy at work, getting ready for our series A. I dunno, do you think people would be interested in my clojure integration w/ minecraft? I made it so I had a lisp repl for a...

    It puts the lava in the bin or it gets the hose again, Guswut.

    Mods decided to make it impossible to make solar power!!!!

    Why "can't" you? Was your plan to use solars to bootstrap UU matter? Cuz man.. that's rough.

    Future of Mods With 1.5

    I look forward to everything else moving forward quickly and redpower being left behind. This will hopefully trigger Eloraam to reconsider the way her mod works and result in something new, wonderful, and more open.

    Dumb Modular Powersuit Tricks

    Huh. I'm surprised you didn't just lol-tier9001 it. :) Even the LV capacitor is like more expensive than a regular drill! In GT mode the suit is actually above the steel tier!

    Mods decided to make it impossible to make solar power!!!!

    Man, I do not know what you're talking about here. That's just trivially false. Advanced Solars are so freakin' good even with the new recipes. I want so badly. I know what's getting updated this weekend!

    Modular Powersuits eats crazy sums of silver in GT mode.

    Disabling GregTech

    I like how other mods fight back. Zomg this is so 6 months ago, Raven! Turn if off if you have Forestry installed and the game compensates. The only reason this problem existed was because of an centrifuge exploit that no longer works. There is a standing wave of hate over GT for this, but...

    Disabling GregTech

    I don't consider myself anything but a sub-par minecraft player, and I've very much enjoyed my delve into gregtech with many of the hardmode switches turned on.

    Factorization 0.7.21 has this?

    Mods decided to make it impossible to make solar power!!!!

    They're just 0 maintenance. That's more than can be said for the above solutions in most cases. My server is powered by a sort of rube-goldberg contraption using biofuel and multiple tank carts and a void pipe sending apple juice squirting into quantum crevices. It took about 3 days to build and...

    BC pipe question

    Sort of a moot point, displays have an optimal lifespan that is only slightly longer than laptops. I am convinced displays live about 10% longer than laptops for the same conspiratorial reason that hot dogs come in packs of 8 but hot dog buns come in packs of 6. Also, the genie is out of the...

    Yeah it's too bad laptops have no plugs for mice.

    BC pipe question

    I agree about external monitors. I just wouldn't ever buy a machine meant for human use without an integrated display. I'm a big fan of my desk setup.

    Sure doesn't with mine. Maybe I need to upgrade to 3.1?

    BC pipe question

    Well they never will, by definition. Laptops have batteries. However, we're in the era of don't-care-fast for almost everything. I literally cannot imagine any circumstances in which I would buy a desktop computer with the intention of hooking up a monitor to it. I tried. I'd rather just wait...
