Nice! Heard of new versions of TerraFirmaCraft, but I believe it is community maintained, as the main author seems to focus on Vintage Story. But since you mention it works fine, I might as well give it a spin! Didn’t know Gregtech updated to newer versions.

No need to advertise Prism - using it already :)

Also, UltimMC is a decent offline fork for pirates and privacy enthusiasts (Disclaimer: I do not promote piracy and own a legal Minecraft license)

I’m so lost and then I try to play like a Beta 1.7.3 player and everyone else just goes “the fuck are you doing?”

Happily, I joined Minecraft when it was already 1.7.2 (release versioning, not Beta), so my ways are not THAT outdated, and obviously I never had issues with 1.7.10 because it’s literally my first version with two minor updates. Who would have known that it will all stop there…

Also, I struck some delicate balance with mods at version 1.21.1, but it is for sure still a much different experience.

I too find myself returning back there :)

So many great mods died after this version that it was impossible to recreate the experience - and I feel bad for those who joined the party later and never knew what 1.7.10 (or 1.6.4, or 1.5.2 for that matter) has to offer.

It goes so bad that when I recently loaded a newer version, I was like “what the hell is going on here” :D

Feed the Beast is commonly overloaded and also commonly shoves things like progression and questing, which are not to everybody’s liking.

The best approach is always to add the mods you want manually to tailor the experience.

I personally had most fun with Terrafirmacraft, Thaumcraft, Electrical Age, and GregTech. But those were the days gone, and most of them got stuck at 1.7.10

Easy. Democrats are sponsored by billionaires. So are Republicans, but they can be openly supportive of billionaires, while Democrats have to show they’re here “for the people”. If Democrats would get serious about anti-billionaire social policies, they would lose funding and media coverage overnight.

Just look at how they desperately try to tank Mamdani, despite the fact he is fully aligned with Democratic party lines and is immensely popular. Dems know that his “for the people” reputation, even if it’s one mayor of one city, will make billionaires upset, and desperately try to reverse course. Also, other, way less popular candidates got more campaign funds, with much higher average donations - guess who got involved.

Or make an educated guess - you’ll be totally right.

I see. But sometimes, progress really makes lesser problems than there were before.

We have cheap and generally eco-friendly solar, we install plenty of wind, and now we have a much more ecological way to store the power, too.

The rich care about their profits, and if eco-friendly tech delivers that, they’ll be all-in. Some fossil kings will try to stop it, but at this point, this trend is irreversible, because others among the rich are ready to destroy them.

Yes.

Here’s the thing: sodium chloride aka table salt is extremely abundant. We are not expected to run out of it in any measurable timeframe, and the effect of sodium mining on the oceans or ecosystems at large is negligible.

Same cannot be said of lithium, which currently forms the backbone of battery tech. It is rare, and its extraction is extremely polluting. In fact, lithium is responsible for a huge chunk of renewable energy’s ecological footprint.

Switching to sodium technology is like switching from silver to sand. It’s just one thing we truly have enough of.

Linux is exactly where you should go with old computers.

With a proper distribution/DE combination, you can run it on 20+ year old computers with no issue.

But overall, if your laptop runs Windows 10, it will likely run every Linux distribution easily.

This is English only. Other languages are downloaded separately, though they typically take less space.

Can be read directly, like normal Wikipedia.

Not sure, not having that option. Can imagine not much more, if proper version history management is involved.

With images, it is 111,08 GB

Nothing, it’s probably an attempt to have something stable and unchanging, so that aging doesn’t show much.

The meme doesn’t seem to be about Debian becoming bad, more like data hoarding.

I can answer one part of your question. Yes, it’s not as big as you think it is.

The more I know, thanks!

Amazing

Beautiful! Much worth asking for lol. Lawrence Linux ftw!
