Had some fun using a 555 timer to modulate 180-ish kHz square wave for audio amplification, discovered that random mosfets ripped out of dead fluorescent light ballasts require a bit more current on the base to switch to full on output than I expected. The audio on the speaker is pretty crappy, but the fact that the speaker is a 3cm-ish 1/4 watt taken from some cheap toy doesn't help

Who can get the reference ?
NOOOOOO!!11!!1!!11
it's my arch-nemesis, Doctor Combine
Edit: sorry greg -
SpwnX, how do you type superscripts?
-
-
Don't forget that we have things that use both metric and imperial fastenings ( small engines on things like lawn mowers especially)
-
I see you sinnaj
Edit: Does anyone else think that the shoulders of Greg's avatar could be tiny arms?
-
Well, remember that my fellow Americans also use the imperial system (with feet, gallons, miles, PSI etc.), so flipping the order of the months, days, and years (see what I did there?) isn't too supprising

Greg, how about adding solar panel arrays that consist of normal blocks(not tile entity) in a rectangle with a "control" block(tile entity) somewhere inside which outputs the EU generated by the array while having a gui, say, 3 numerical displays, each one showing one of the following: EU/t, length along x-axis, length along z-axis. The tile entity would be used to scan for a valid array and output the EU while the fact that the majority of the array was "normal blocks" would reduce the amount of resources required to process the whole thing. It could be slightly more efficient than normal solar panels, while costing the same amount of resources

Ic2 is not bukkit compatible

It's decompiled, but still Obfuscated

Because you would instantly vanish if that were antimatter, really
But don't matter and antimatter particles only negate each other if they have perfectly opposite spins?

That may be a job for Iguana Tweaks, he added a wieght system too I think.
;http://www.minecraftforum.net/…ana-tweaks/#entry24265138Feel free to suggest it there then, I don't have a MC forum account and don't plan on ever making one
Edit: I just figured that greg might want to add it to gregtech, seeing as he is always looking for ways to make MC harder
-
You know what would actually make minecraft harder? Block Placement Time. Want to plop a block of dirt down? 10 ticks. Want to put down a piece of cobble?7 ticks. Want to put down and IBF? 25 ticks. Now, planning before placing blocks is a must! It will be GREGLORIOUS!1!!1!
But really, This might make the difference between plopping down a dirt wall and actually planning before entering a wide open cave when you hear skeletons. -
Quoted from "CrazyCrafter"
Quoted from "SpwnX"
Another thing is that whenever the electric connections of a house are directly connected (like putting a wire connecting the two holes of the plug [or when someone somehow makes that connection, while being the "wire"]), the current is too high and will deactivate the energy supply through a device which i don't remember its translation.
The only issue with depending on (circuit breakers/ fuses) for safety is that they aren't instantaneous, and cannot protect humans shorting the wires from cardiac arrest or brain damage because they don't always trip quickly enough. Also note that human resistance to AC (really impedance, but that's because the skin acts as a dielectric(making the body behave as a capacitor when subjected to AC)) is only 300-1000 ohms, which means that for 120V the instantaneous current ranges from 400 mA to 120 mA, which is more than enough to cause cardiac arrest, but not nearly enough to guarantee that a breaker trips.
I think you are mixing leakage protection (RCD or ELCB) with circuit breaker / fuse.Unfortunately, most homes in america lack RCD or ELCB devices for the majority of their circuits, and they are only required for areas which commonly contain water, such as bathrooms or the outdoors. I was referring to breakers/fuses when I said that they wouldn't trip, and leakage protection is a non-factor because the original situation was regarding using 2 wires poked into the "hot" and "neutral"(not ground) terminals in an outlet to charge a phone, which wouldn't cause an RCD or ELCB to trip because nothing actually leaks to ground. Also, the major hazard would be overheating of whatever you tried to connect to the 120V grid if you were smart enough to use insulated wire.

It's better safe than sorry, especially with electricity. Do remember that lith-ion batteries are explosive and flammable, which makes things involving them even more !FUN!

(btw: don't attempted the aforementioned if you value said products listed above)
or value your life

the program is somewhere on the minecraft wiki texture pack page I believe
