Ooh, interesting. I'm guessing TC replaces the block with something else and gives it the same texture, and because you can ward transparent blocks, the new block is tagged as transparent even if it has a solid texture. And mobs don't spawn on transparent blocks. Do they block light, though?
*Edit* The plot thickens. You can't ward transparent blocks any more, and warded blocks still do block light. So I'm wrong. So, no more warded Ethereal Glass? Boo!

Or maybe it just prevents mob spawn? Like all those Gregtech blocks do(Granite, machine casings, metal blocks and so on).
That sounds way too hacky to be true. Idk if they block light though I stumbled upon this in the End, it might just be a property like rhn said
I tried it last night in the latest DW20 pack and that isn't the case. I walled myself in a dark cave and warded the entrance wall, no change to light levels. So if it causes curseed earth to burn then it's for another reason than light.
*Edit* And warded blocks are indistinguishable from the un-warded version when you aren't holding a warding wand. They never emitted light in TC4, not sure about TC3 but I don't remember it.

I haven't played FTB since before Monster was a modpack, and today I discovered that Thermal Expansion added something called Itemducts that have applicable filters that have completely revolutionized my storage system, and have radically simplified my automatic jetpack recharger.
I also forgot about what used to be liquiducts, and rediscovered them as fluiducts. No more waterproof BCpipes for me, please. My cactus-growing days are over.

That a QuarryPlus contrary to a normal Quarry does not just destroy all the blocks in its "setup" area.
Downside is that the entire village it just demolished is now in my ME network, including 3 Tinkers Construct workshops worth of patterns and crappy tool bits...

Well they have no doorslook at them, they still think their houses are there, how sad and delightfully evil
EnderIO KillerJoes can be used like brain in the jars. Just put it down without a sowrd or nutrient distillation and it will suck up all the XP your diamond spikes (or similar devices) generate for you. And its storage is pretty much infinite -> no need for tanks, fluid pipes or anything. Just place and forget until you need some levels
1. I found out porta-spawners can be found in village houses. EZ-Nether star
2. That Mcheli can be a total pain to install sometimes.

You can use it to trigger a daylight sensor (note that those only trigger when it senses DAYlight not other light sources).
