Me last night:
*Sees interesting structure and landscaping*
"Hmm I should build that..."
*gets home and boots up MC*
"Gonna go grab a snack, I'll do that thing when I get back"
*15 minutes of eating way too much "
"Now what was I gonna do again?"
*closes out MC*
*remembers about the place*
*boots MC back up*
"Why tf did I open Minecraft?!"
Edit: wrong thread...*hides in corner*

Technically speaking, most engines work on that principle.
Even fission reactors.
And the atomic science(?)/resonant rise fusion reactor uses plasma to boil water to drive turbines.
One day, we'll invent something more grown up than kettle power, in the meanwhile there's reactorcraft

Being inspired by the LHC, I've decided to do my bit for (minecraft) science and create the Large Cow Collider.
I know, I know, most of my experiments tend to involve cruelty to cows, but the perpetual motion cow was hilarious so shut it.
This time, my plan is to create twoproton cow accelerators to exothermically propel my target ungulates to speeds up to and maybe exceeding 1.46 chunks per second then smash them into each other in a highly energetic and totally medium-rare collision.
I hope that, in time, I will eventually be credited with the discovery of the Higgs Bovine.

Or you could put apples into a Reactorcraft fusion reactor to make large hadron cider.
Actually, according to source its actually a iron atom in second oxidation state.
My thing is looking at buildings, trying to remember designs to replicate back home.
Oh, and measuring in blocks...as in my friend goes "Look at that building!" And I go: "Hmm, 60 blocks" Under my breath.
I was meaning IRL Ferrous
In game its ore dictionary-ed to be nickle. But irl it's iron in its second oxidation state xD
That is purely if you are a chemist(as someone of of a more physicist persuasion, I am on the personal opinion that chemists are horrible at any naming conventions
). The origin of the word comes from Latin I think and relates simply to anything of Iron.That is a correct assumption on both fronts. I remember last year we got Google translate to read us the full name of titin...≈190k letters of Ls, Ys, and Cs.That is purely if you are a chemist(as someone of of a more physicist persuasion, I am on the personal opinion that chemists are horrible at any naming conventions
Any idea what the reasoning behind the long name is?
EDIT: Google answered my question, sorry for the wasted post

Going to waste another post for people wondering and lazy; it's because it's a protein, so they have to list all of the amino acids in order. And it's a big protein.
But, in order to put the thread back on the transcontinental railroad, I frequently wonder on a scale of 1-10 how difficult it would be to code a real-world [insert science I'm studying] mod.
PS: I've decided that I believe it'd be easier to make a new game.
This is slightly reversed of the topic perhaps:
I usually have the TV on in the background when playing Minecraft. I don't really watch it, but I half listens to it at times. This leads to some weird associations to the things I have built over time that just wont go away....
Few examples:
Münchhausen by proxy:
Oil polluted beaches:
Generation shift in a family Circus:
My mind is so messed up....

...My "Game Flashes" are fairly rare, but, as with everyone, hilarious.
So far, I've had three total:
1. When I'm out of my house for the evening, and I see it's getting dark, and then I look at the sun to see what time it is. I didn't need to berate myself for that; my stinging eyes did it for me.
2. When I'm getting hungry, and then I think: "I shouldn't eat because I don't need the health regen." That one was followed by some facepalming.
3. (Modded) When I'm looking for some object in a closet, and I know I'll never find it just look, I try to double click on the search bar in my inventory and search for it so it gets highlighted because of NEI. Then I'm sad, and wish that was a thing.

I do the same thing, except I listen to music. My logistics pipes system in my first 1.6.4 world was joining Tom Petty while he was running down a dream...This is slightly reversed of the topic perhaps:

I listen to podcasts a lot while clearing land and caving, and I am sometimes scared by how well I can remember the part of the podcast I was hearing in certain areas...

Yeah I have the same thing. I use DI.fm a lot when playing and certain of their channels have become equivalent with minecraft now

Good lord.
I love your posts but they make me feel like such an incompetent builder.
Do you have imgur galleries or something with most/all of your stuff? I intent to shamelessly attempt to copy it just to practice "larger" aesthetics.
Every time, EVERY TIME, I try to not build something strictly aligned to chunk boundries I end up with small useless areas or a lack of overall cohesiveness and I just can't do a network of roads without it turning into a grid. I think Im trying to put things too close together initally.
Or do you actually start with a large sketch of what you want overall? Im trying to start small and build as I go...
Don't have a single gallery with all the pics since I am too cheap to get a premium imgur account so have something like 4 accounts now
But you can follow the builds here:http://forum.feed-the-beast.com/thr...s-a-build-journal-guide-collection-etc.42664/
Pics I posted here are from the TPPI world.
I generally "sketch" out plans of things in my head over weeks/months. During that I might map out stuff with cobble, Building Guides, waypoints etc. to test things out. I might build bits of it, stop when in doubt how to proceed and then go back and forward to it until the idea have fully formed
