This isn't the discussion I mentioned above, but I'm pretty sure it was Rupert Sheldrake who brought up the idea in that discussion. Here is his 'Banned' TEDtalk (not really banned, but labled as unprovable science and removed from the TED website - since returned).

Sometimes a project is done solely because it can be done, not because it is needed. Besides, if you can triple the amount of fuel your farm is producing, you can expand your consumers significantly before needing to move to the next tier of power generation. If you can push it far enough, and...

Incorrect assumptions are often the bane of theorycraft. Unfortunately, until it can be proven that the assumption is indeed incorrect, more layers get built upon the foundations of incorrectness, making it harder to challenge the idea, even with proper evidence. I listened to a discussion...

Writing out a HQM progression is a daunting task, but I wish you the best. For actual mod input, the mod you mentioned a while back that added grass slabs to world gen is Building Bricks . For reference, a list of the Sprout dependencies can be found here. Hopefully that can cut down on some...

I would love to see a working mod list as you go forward with this. Any thoughts on world gen (RTG, ATG, BoP, Natura, COFH custom, etc)? Are you adding any magic (I know it's not your thing, but fresh eyes)? Any particular theme, or just mods you've been meaning to play with. My computer is...

I'm just teasing you. I've said I "...have big plans for RailCraft" and "...will be making a concerted effort to get into RailCraft fully" for the last half dozen worlds or so. It's such a great idea, but by the time my industrial age would support a rail system, other - easier - options are...

Thermal Dynamics does allow for the transport of redstone signal via one of its ducts. I'm not sure it offers any complicated redstone options, such as gates or timers, but carrying a signal over distance is quite simple. XNet will also do the job if you have it, probably with greater...

Sounds like you need to add RailCraft to the pack in order to expedite delivery from the second oil well. ;)

That doesn't resemble the Buildcraft I remember. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy an engineering challenge, but that seems much more convoluted than it used to be.

Between 14 hour work days, being a husband and father, taking care of a newborn, and dealing with other family issues that have arrived in spectacular timing, there isn't much room in the day right now. As I said, it will be better, but now isn't that time.

Life's a bit crazy right now. Two hours of sleep per day would be a drastic improvement from the current. It will get better. Just need to be patient...

Yeah, I'm a derp. Had him on the brain from another discussion that bled over. Damn, I need some sleep...

Thanks for the sanity check. As I said, I always assumed that to be the case, but for some reason I suddenly realized it was only an assumption, and I needed to know.

As erroneously posted elsewhere by me, I'll ask the question here. Do Immersive Engineering Powered Lanterns need to be powered to prevent mob spawns? I only ask because I've always assumed it to be true, but never actually had anything else to back it up. Maybe @McJty could confirm if free...

Totally wrong thread. Was supposed to be in AASQ, but I'm a derp. That said, I always assumed they needed to be powered to work, but the problem is, it's a logical assumption, powered only by the fact that it's logical without other supporting arguments. This is just a sanity check, since out...

If I want a cosmetic, working elevator, I love the RFTools option. If I want a quick way to travel large vertical distances quickly, I usually use the OpenBlocks style elevator. I've not played with Thuts, so I have no vote there. On the whole, I enjoy the challenges that RFTools inspires me...

Not sure why I'm just thinking about this now, but do Immersive Engineering Powered Lanterns need to be powered in order to prevent mob spawns, or do they do that regardless? Many of the custom structures in Sprout use them for decorative fixtures, but none of them have power running to them...

Lost Cities will generate a world of metropolitan buildings, most in disrepair, many teaming with hostile mobs. There are parks and planters with trees, so you won't be completely resource starved, but it plays quite different from the Vanilla feel. I recommend testing it, but it would take a...

Unless it's more than 630 types of things...

Industrial Foregoing (reimagining of MFR) should have what you're looking for.
