You're fine with me taking away emotions, but draw the line at moral issues and ethics? Then all the silly emotionless people would wonder if it was ethical to do stuff but not feel bad either way

Robots really are flawless if you deal with the whole what colour social stuff.

Quote from SpwnX

Please, control your quotes (it is too big).

About emotions and such, people can be changed by the environment to behave differently, either positively or negatively.
Do you think that things happens on your life doesnt change the way you are, regarding other people, your "emotions" for them?

What was that about quoting? I was too busy quoting

The whole idea was not having the wasteful emotion thing at all. The exact point you raised about other people affecting you is weakness in an ultimate communist society, and probably how the whole system would eventually collapse.
See - emotions bad.

Quote from SirusKing

Hence why robots are for industrial usage and not for social usage, unless of course you programme them to determine what colour or hair style. If you really wanted to remove human emotions and stuff, fine, but moral issues and meh. Honestly I would rather you use robots.

Quote from SirusKing

Robots are much easier since they don't take 3 billion years of random chance to make.

Only problem is, robots don't decide things for themselves. Like what colour to be, or what hair style to have.

Quote from SirusKing

*refer to previous post that i was editing*
"Through engineering it would be easier but we have yet to discover which genes actually do it, and if so, it is probably a large number with mixtures and stuff. For example, dopamine controls a fair few emotions but is also incredibly important for the rest of your body too."

Dang, so you'd have to mess around with the body alot to get that to work. I think I'll just stick with Greg's idea of mindless robots for an ultimate communist society.

Quote from SirusKing

I guess, Although because it is hardcoded into everyones DNA you would have to be lucky (or unlucky) as fuck to find a donar without a particular gene for emotion.

Who needs to find it? What's wrong with just cutting it out and taping the DNA back together?

Quote from SirusKing

Well its not like we learn emotions. Random mutations and natural selection had to programme it in for us

So emotions could be bread out?

This:

(Note, although both far sides are easily corruptable into a dictatorship, the key ideas of the left are much much better then the right)

Of course

Quote from SirusKing

No but I think they had red horns and a flaming pitchfork

Which one is a more accurate picture of them?

Quote from SirusKing

Or the vanilla ic2 config where you can just set UU's EU rate to like 100 eu -_-

Paaaah, changing UU's base rate is for noobs. 1 Million EU without scrap was fine

Quote from LinusPhoenix

coding GUIs doesnt look so fun.. Can't a machine used for dying wood at a better ratio just not use any? I am sure it would be great!

Just make it so you right click things in or pipe them in, and it just spits them out.

Quote from Omicron

677,700,000 EU

There's a mod which could let me knock 6 digits off that

Get Gregtech then no one would be able to craft one for 2 months

- uranium ore

Nice, is about time uranium was less rare without quarries

Quote from SirusKing

I just had someone say to me that the far left is as bad as the far right.
just
just no

Did they have their screen upside down first?

Quote from master801

I'm already in the experimental version. The recipes though, they're a problem for me. Because, you basically have to make them appear from a 'list' that has all ic2 items and most of those items from the 'list' is meta data sensitive. By the way, do you guys want me to work on gui's or making the mod actually work?

Based on Forestry, just make it work before it looks pretty

Quote from GregoriusT

UUM costs 1000000 EU without Amplifier (Scrap)
UUM costs 166666 EU with Amplifier

Only 166666? I thought it'd be 1666666EU, since UU costs 10 million not 1 million EU.

Speaking of ore processing, this seems legit right?

Quote from master801

The IUpgradeItem Class is a base class for all upgrade items. I only want one of those items. Greg just told me a way to do it so I'll take his advice and do it later...
Any way, this doesn't look wrong at all...

Engine/generator, close enough right?

Quote from SpwnX

The fact that you need to mix up chemicals?
Although GT chemical reactor is a bit... primitive, as we usually mix much more stuff at once, to produce much more stuff. [Chemical reactions with one or more reagents producing one or more products]

My point was why would you make it, if it had a cool down time, when you could use potions from a brewing stand

How would brewing fit in with that?

700th post for me
