Yep, it's true. I still wonder exactly why ShdwDrgn did that.. I mean, he had a working system for crafting vile ingots and soul shards and all that alike, and he replaced it... With a step backwards? Not only that, but now making souls shards requires going to the End.

I remember the Forge guys talking about how the new liquid system will change in 1.6. This might mean incompatibilities with stuff like tanks and lakes not being there. I don't actually know much about that, though. Other than those changes, we won' be able to find out until all your component...

I use EBXL for my server. Saying that, it was mostly because of legacy reasons (considering EBXL was out first). However, I believe that EBXL was a good choice. EBXL has some issues, yes. I had to disable all the redwood biomes and some of the snow ones ("lagwood forests", anyone?) in order to...

You could use a Bucket Turtle to place liquids, although it can't place en masse like the Grate does. The Grate was pretty unique to begin with, though...

If you guys want to make simple holes to bedrock, I'd suggest the new ME Matter Cannon. If you point it straight down, it'll dig a hole to bedrock in a few seconds, and with what I can only assume to be with less energy.

Turrets die if they're touched. By anything at all. You touch them? They die. A mob lightly brushes agains them? They die. I suspect they could be killed by thier own bullets as they come out thier chamber... I find turrets too shoddy in that regard for anything lasting.

I really don't see much change in the use- Mining wells are still equally useful as quarries, as both still mine out for the same energy on a per-block basis. The two have their pros and cons.

And I thought Taint was gone for good. I'll be excited to see how it ties in with the whole flux/aura mechanic. I remember back in Technic the time I deliberately built a base on Taint (I liked the purple, ok??). It quickly got very... Interesting.

Forestry Ethanol and MFR Biofuel are interchangable; both can be put into a boiler. For quick and easy MJ production, I use MRF BioFuel Generators (at 16 MJ/t, they're superior in high enough numbers), although they're probably still beaten out by using it for steam.

Well, the newest version of Soul Shards says that it now supports TF mobs, so I guess 1.5.2 is the way to go? I don't actually have Soul Shards in my server anymore, so I wouldn't know if it actually works... EDIT: Oh, let's actually answer the question here. Doc used a turtle to hollow out a...

Setting up an automated villager breeder... And forgetting to turn it off when I logged off. Got back on the day later... And the rest was history.

Yeah, I can see where this might be failing compared to TE output... Although it would probably derp up if there's more than 2 possible outputs, it's very smart about ejection (it will only eject smeltable things into the Furnace, for example). Yeah, I just checked with AtomicStryker's...

As of IC2 build 354, we have a new working upgrade for IC2 machines. It's called the Ejector Upgrade, and basically what it does is to replicate Thermal Expansion's auto-output functionality. It, when installed, automatically shoves out any output it has. This to me is a really cool thing that's...

Well, you've heard it from here. GregTech ruins relationships!

MFR is one of the best newer (well, "newer" as in "recently updated") mods I've seen, that and AE. It's quickly becoming a one-stop shop for everything worth doing for me. I also love how PowerCrystals is so responsive. I don't think there was ever a time where I posted something talking to...

Nope.

Are the night vision goggles supposed to turn the entire screen black if you're wearing them during the day? I'm guessing it's Optifine's fault (hint: it always is).

The power relay's nice, I guess, but what I'm really looking at is the Matter Cannon. Thing's like a Mining Laser on steroids. I'm liking it already.

I'm working on a computery thing using OpenPeripheral (among other things!) to make a chat-based ender-pouch filler/grabber. It even has a GUI so you can keep track of stores on the go.

Oh my god, please tell me that isn't just a photoshop. I didn;t expect that so fast! This is possibly the coolest addition to CC in a while. The possibilities are endless! Right now, I have ideas for an AE resource ticker floating in my head.
