What cool little thing have you discovered today?

[Someone Else 37]

Wasn't trying to be sarcastic or snide. Though I am not to sure on the definition of snide. I don't like the sound of it though.

Was just trying to tease a little. By saying one thing and then showing the exact opposite was the truth.

That is exactly sarcasm.

You could've worded the caption on your post better to make the sarcasm stand out more, and not look like you literally didn't see the buttons right there in the screenshot. "Nope, no way to disable it. None at all. " would work well.

I will disagree. Sarcasm is defined differently then what my intent was. For it to be sarcasm my intent would have had to been different then it was. It lists intent to hurt among in the definition. While I was intending a initial state of disappointment I wasn't intending to hurt with the entire statement. If I intended to hurt I would have worded it meanly.

Whatever, frankly I am done with this. Have a nice day. It hurts enough to know I am taken wrongly. It hurts even more to argue semantics. So, later.

Edit:
Dang, I didn't realize how tired I was. Sleep really does the body good.

I totally worded that last part wrong anyway. It should be it hurts knowing I can't properly express myself the way I want to. Having to constantly go over how bad I am at it doesn't help either.

I don't take being wrong lightly. I think I might have a lot of "know it all" in me. Even though I know better it still distresses me to be wrong. It distresses me further that it happens so often. I already know that my knowledge in some categories is acceptable, and that my ability to further that knowledge is extreme. In others though the exact opposite to both is all to often true.

I am sorry for any toes I have crushed, or feelings hurt.

Was attempting to use the "Equal Trade torches for blocks" trick to quicker mine some stuff, but got tired of all the torches sticking everywhere. Thought it would be cool if I could either use something that could not stick or quickly pull the stuck items down again.

Then it hit me! Flowers(Poppy, Dandelion etc.) can be Equal Traded, they wont stick to blocks other than dirt/grass(it bugs out a bit sometimes and sticks to stone stuff anyway), and those that do stick can be removed extremely easy again with the Horn of the Wild from Botania!

 

[Celestialphoenix]

That trick still exists?

Either way try saplings- easier to acquire en-masse.​

 

[keybounce]

... You can mine out ores by swapping in flowers???

Yeish, no wonder I think that "equal trade" is excessive.

 

[RealKC]

It's clearly not equal trade as it doesn't respect he law of equivalent exchange

 

[RenzosNips]

... You can mine out ores by swapping in flowers???

Yeish, no wonder I think that "equal trade" is excessive.

Which is why I don't start my players with the Equal Trade tech item (whose name eludes me at the moment), even though I think it would be great for early building. (Build cobble stone structure, equal trade into nice looking place)

"excessive" seems a bit excessive. I do love "mining" obsidian with equal trade, but mostly because doing it with (for instance) a diamond pickaxe gives me carpal tunnel. Magical extrication is sensible in many packs.

 

[keybounce]

Hmm, gee. If only there was some machine that could take lava and water pumped in, and deposit obsidian as an item directly ...

Maybe something that cooled lava, using a powered fan or coolant. Or just poured it out into a sturdy cooling table. Or just used "minecraft magic" and just said that one bucket of each gave one item of obsidian.

Oh wait, I bet all three of those exist.

Yea, obsidian is hard to *move* in vanilla, but not hard to *create* where you want it.

EDIT: I just realized: How long does a speed 5 diamond pickaxe take? Haste potion? Beacon bonus?

 

[stentninja]

I think it's like 3-5 seconds still tried it a while back

 

[RenzosNips]

EDIT: I just realized: How long does a speed 5 diamond pickaxe take? Haste potion? Beacon bonus?

According to whoever did the Minecraft Wiki page, speed 5 is 2.55 seconds, haste 1 + speed 5 is 2.14, and haste 2 + speed 5 is 1.875 seconds.

Taint in the new Thaumcraft if a major pain in the arse..

Just watched a vid by barodas22 on YouTube. Damned stuff ate up his base so fast he had to bail on it. Yikes!

I was using Saplings since TC3. They self-eject just as good as flowers, are easier to obtain in numbers, and if you need a wood at the bottom of the cave system because you have ran of torches or tool durability, you can
get some dirt, skeleton bones, saplings and make some.

Also, this trick can be used with Building Focus too.

I'm not sure what your point is dude. If this is in reference to my mining obsidian with equal trade, how do the machines in your packs have anything to do with the wands in my packs?

Looked up that channel on youtube. It corrected my spelling and gave me two results that weren't related. looked it up on here and got no results. Could I please get a link to the channel?

Your app sign off message is really nice. Goes well with the avatar.

Edit:
Barodas22 came up as a result on a Internet search engine. Seams like it might be the right channel.

 

[Cptqrk]

Yeah, Barodas22 is the guy

Very small channel, but I enjoy watching it

The video I am referencing is at this link:

The horrors are real... The panic is painful. Not only the change to how taint can generate (via a Totem mechanic that you use to manipulate aura) but how the Ethereal Blooms deal with taint is different, and devastating as well.

I finally sat down last night and did my first computercraft program. I've been putting this off for several years.

Its a simple thing that acts like an SR-Latch: when my energy stores get too high, turn off reactors for a while. When they get too low, turn them back on again.

Welcome to the cc club

As you might have noticed the default editor of cc is kind of bad so just as a general tip for everyone that wants to make a script for cc you can edit a script in any editor you like if the save is local even while the game is running and even while the script is running. You will have to relaunch the script for any changes to take effect though.
The files are at {your save file}/computer/{your computer id}/{your script}
Do note though that you first need to save a non-empty file using the computer before its folder gets created.

I wasted 5 minutes of my life before I decided to figure this out myself. Although now I kinda wanna dig up a dedicated lua editor. Notepad is terrible. (I'll probably try notepad++ tonight)
