    UU Matter production.

    Iridium in the nether if I recall is a bug solved in more recent versions of gregtech, only pyrite should be there.

    Redstone Energy Conduits

    I'll have to throw that up in creative then, I think it would be good to get some exacts on the info. Curious though, is there a difference on BC pipes and conduit when comparing TE's engines. I know That a TE conduit system has intelligence built in, and only pulls what it requires and...

    Redstone Energy Conduits

    I believe conduits lose 5% of stored energy per second. The maximum stored energy is X * 1000, where X is the number of 'nodes', nodes being any conduit attached to a machine. So, if you have 100 conduit going to 4 machines, the total internal energy is 4000, losing 5% of that per second...

    Red Power 2 Nether Energy

    Neat trick. You can put a block of glowstone right over an RP solar panel.

    Proper use of redstone energy cell

    Trying to figure out what you are doing, and it's not exactly drawing in my head. Happen to have a picture of your setup showing where the cell is? Might be setup specific.

    Portal gun insane recipe

    Actually, isn't as bad as you think, they are also able to be found in dungeons. I can accept that, if it's intended to be rare dungeon loot then it should be very hard to craft.

    How will all these packs be maintained? [6 is a lot]

    If they create a standard for block ID usage, it becomes very easy to manage the packs. The only thing that could awkward would be blended other-parts of configs, but I'd assume that's handled by the pack-owner.

    Factorization: Sell me

    Ah, the heart of the issue. You see, an actual IC2 setup takes longer and more resources to setup, and TE can get 'close' to requiring the same amount when you include engines and pipe. As to the DW20 pack, well, I got my factorization area setup first actually, because lead and silver are...

    Today, I learned...

    This seriously works? Ohhh, this is perfect for a couple insane ideas I have. Didn't know you could do that with an energy cell.

    3x3 full-speed Nether pump

    Sometimes it can be worth it to go to a higher gate-type rather than trying to work around multiple gates just so you can use 4 types of pipe wire and have all the additional AND or OR options able to be set.

    Factorization: Sell me

    First block, crafting table. Second block, furnace. However, at this point building a slag furnace and using said slag furnace to get the materials to make your first TE machine will net you more materials, hence my statement. Slag furnaces can use coal. I would disagree here, unless you...

    Portal gun insane recipe

    Correct me if I am wrong, but wasn't the nether-star recipe only a christmas easter egg?

    Factorization: Sell me

    I think where you are missing the usefulness in factorization is not in it's end-game, it's in the early to mid-game. Few other mods can you setup an ore-increasing systems in the same amount of time. The slag furnace is a very, very under-valued piece of the mod for that reason. It's...

    Today, I learned...

    Yep, and since pipes are 'slightly' more intelligent, no humus going to the wrong barrel. Nice idea bout the multi-pipe on the ACT, never thought of that.

    Today, I learned...

    Ah, the things you learn when you are trying to fix a problem. I'm storing tons of stuff in barrels, but without RP grabbing things out of barrels is, well, not pretty. I'm trying to keep my Humus production going. Then I think, what the heck, why not. And what did I discover...

    Best way to mine?

    Actually, the IC2 miner pulls from Your config file, regardless if it matches the server or not. I have a custom config with numbers where all ores are a multiple of 3, diamond is 100, and lava is 1. Basically, if I find a spot over 400 it's diamonds (Or an insane amount of ore) below...

    Why I don't like Barrels, explained in Python

    Actually, isn't the entire system connected to tube considered an array? What your explaining sounds more like buildcraft pipes, tubes in my understanding 'find' the nearest inventory that will accept the item. I used to remember how to actually showcase this wasn't just 'if's, but I'd have to...

    When the updated FTB pack is released will you try to "recover" things from your old save file?

    Time like this I really wish the Architect table worked with any regularity.

    You have a choice to make. If you had to pick just one mod...

    Honestly, I'm going to have to go with factorization after playing with it. It reacts with enough vanilla blocks, adds interesting things to do with items and ore, barrels, and even wierd crazy armor. (Piston shoulders ftw!). The more I'm using it, the more I'm enjoying it.

    Extra Biomes ... Not compelling content.

    I wonder if a crescent hammer can rotate those rubber blocks. And Kudos for the mention of the logger, vastly under-used in my opinion now that we have redstone cells.
