Once you have filled an upgraded barrel(of any kind), a decent sized ME disk/Extra cells Block storage cell or the likes, I seriously doubt you need to store more. Just set up some automated disposal like using ME priority to send it to a trash can once cells/barrels/whatever are full.
I tried the JABBA Barrel, but it isn't nearly enough. I'll have to test extra cells, that might just do it.
I don't really like its design decisions when it comes to how machines and "balance" work. Instead of building a super-fun-to-build frame-based tree farm or something equally ridiculous, I'd just end up popping down a block, feeding it power, planting trees in front of it and it's 10x more efficient than my well-though out tree farm. I might as well not play minecraft at that point. And that's just one example. I guess it always comes down to playstyle.
Nah, the entire point is *storing* that much something

Don't be afraid to use metal or gem blocks for building materials.
Hence why I said you would never need to store that many anyway. Something like a 1k ME storage disk is probably enough for most items.
you also have the caches from Thermal Expansion that can store quite some items, though I don't know if they're enchantable aswell like the satchels and strongboxes are
He's already said what he wants. And placing blocks in the world is not the only use for items. They can always be condensed down into singularities, that's a legit reason for having lots and lots of items. What's the point in saying "that thing you want to do, don't do it, because I don't think it's worthwhile"? Just leave it to people who do have an inclination to answer the question.
Sorry. I was just giving him an alternative in a friendly as possible manner(and partly joking). And from the responses I got I am pretty sure he took it as such.
Sorry that you somehow got offended by it.
And oh if you are saving up materials just to condense into singularities, then you might as well use the ME priority setup I described to automatically export excess items into the Condenser(instead of trash can) once limits are met(if you don't just exploit the Extracell fluid cells to create singularities
).

How does DW20 clear out his text input box (in NEI or AE terminal) with a single click, and not just clicking in the text box and backspacing over the characters already in the text box? Like, he clicks in the text box, then all the text disappears. (Pretty sure he's not cutting and editing the video)
Straight to the question, I love this thread!
Is there any block\system setup in FTB Infinity which allows to know if a player is online?
Back in the FTB Ultimate there was the Online Player detector from tube stuff (http://ftbwiki.org/Online_player_detector), how this functionality can be emulated in Inifnity?
I am not interested in blocks which detects if players are nearby, or if they right click a block (see ComputerCraft detector) etc. I'd like to know -emit a redstone signal- when a player is online on the server. No matter where in the world\ages

Right-Click
If it has Random Things, that had an online detector. I'm not very familiar with Infinity's modlist though.
Unfortunately it's not in the modpack :\ and sadly computer craft can read the chat but not the log in \ log out messages.
If you're willing to add a server-side mod, this should work.
You can chunkload it, but the whole game will stop running once you log off of it.
Only solution is having your server hosted separately either on you own computer, a secondary one connected by LAN or renting one from a hosting company.
You have been able to chunkload in singleplayer for years. But I suspect what you mean by "chunkloading" is not really chunkloading. The game is divided up into small squares and all of these are processed individually. For these to be processed they need to be loaded by someone or something. Usually this is caused by the player which at render distance Far loads chunks in a 10 chunk radius(441 chunks). But to have stuff going on while the player is not standing around mods add chunkloaders to keep the chunks loaded. This is chunkloading.
What you probably want is your game to progress(with the use of chunkloaders or by building in the spawnchunks) after you quit it. This is not possible without a server as the world cannot magically process it self once you shut off your computer/quits the game.
