Okay, so I'm working on a project for work. It's going to be a webpage that displays a Google Map, with locations marked for each of our office locations. Each location will have a line, representing a link between that location and our central datacenter. Based on the state of the link connection, ...

As many manliness points as I will sacrifice, I just have to say this:

OMG LOOKIT TEH BEBEH ZOMBIE! *squee*

Okay, I'm done.

True, but there was still that awkward transition period, wherein those who had built extensive minecart systems using glitch-boosters were left with broken systems (I was one of them).

If I hadn't gone full-rtard and deleted my entire Youtube collection (the pain is nearly unbearable) I would link you to a build I created that worked as a dual-function cobble and obsidian generator. However, I will also agree with others that building anything designed around an exploit is just pl...

If I weren't stuck with back-rent and student loans, I would finance a mini-bar for you, FC. Keep it up, but try not to work too hard. :)

Shameless self-promotion: http://sargunster.com/btwforum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=4102 One other neat thing about Dropbox, is that it does maintain a "Previous Version" system, so, you can go in and retrieve a copy of the .jar file from before you clicked update. Basically, the same idea th...

Don't immediately jump into an LP. Start with shorter, simpler videos, such as tutorials for basic builds using BTW, or just tours of existing worlds, where you can explain your methodology and thought-process. Once youtube gives you the green-light for over-15-minute videos, consider what type of f...

Agreement with everything stated above. However, there is also a slightly more interesting tactic: Find yourself a fairly-cheap used PC, as long as it isn't horribly out-dated. If gaming is your primary consideration, bear in mind that, since the early 2000s a majority of PC games are primarily desi...

This fic has been posted about a few times on these forums. Great read. I should go back and pick up where I left off. I do like how it incorporates "Nature VS Nurture" and how different Harry's personality could be, based on his up-bringing. Shameless self-promotion: I'm currently working...

Watch out for those Italian girls. They can be a handful (or two)!

Jason Aldean. 'Nuff said.

+1 for the Dukes of Hazard reference, but really not sure how many youngins will catch it ;) I feel sorry for any future generations that would miss out on such a vital part of our culture: http://www.picanese.com/pbpics/18dda82dfaa16c45410f0fe14d90532b.jpg On topic: I think the Higg Boson is an ex...

Also does anyone know a way to only sync saves, not the entire .minecraft folder? Because I have two computers with entirely different specifications and I use different settings for them. Thank you. Tech Support is right next door, but for convienience, here's a link . You can adapt the steps in t...

I think the "complicated" idea stems from the lowest common denominator effect, and the mechanical system. I just found the continued mis-attribution of FC's grounds for leaving Forge to be rather lol-worthy.

So, I probably could be finding more useful things to do while I'm at work, but for some reason, the Minecraft subreddit drew me in. I found this . Hilarious, especially given that it ends up cycling the same, tired old insinuations, all over again. EDIT: I would have joined in to pull some reverse-...

I am a bit confused. I cannot seem to get the mod to work AND be able to patch minecraft. Please explain to me what order to install the mod and patch minecarft with MCPatcher. Your best bet is to use OptiFine HD. However, please note that OptiFine causes some issues with the latest version of BTW,...

Never tried it, but I've paused over it a moment while browsing the mods section at MCF, once or twice. However, I do like the idea of building a mobile oil rig. (Off-topic justification: I started the world before BTB updated.) I can respect the perspective that Flower brought forward, regarding in...

It might be worth adding a bit on recovering corrupted saves due to crashes or what have you. Sometimes a corrupted world caused by a crash or a power loss can be recovered from a recent backup without having to roll back the entire world to whatever your last backup was. Often when a world gets co...

I've been debating it, and I think the time is right for me to join a good SMP server. Requesting whitelist. IGN is, wait for it.... redrew89 (who knew?)

I saw an article about this just the other day. My reaction went like this: See headline in Google Reader, "Uh... wait what?" Click headline, "Wow, really?" Click into source article (Gizmodo, I think), "I can't believe someone actually did this. That's kinda weird." Se...

So, my new job has netted me an interesting perk. I was at work last week, when my manager pointed out a computer next to my desk. "If you want it, take it." My response: "Okay." Con: It's an eMachine, and one from a few years ago. However, it has more potential than my well-worn...

If you live in the States, there are a number of website for organizations (state-run and otherwise) that can provide you with financial aid. You may have to pay the money back after graduation, and the debt can get pretty massive if you study for a field where it may take a few months to find work ...

I personally can't provide much advice, but I can offer a few articles that are relevant.

I went ahead and bought the Android version. Pretty fun. However, I have to say that the multi-touch controls aren't as smooth as they could be, but it's pre-release.

I never thought I would have to resort to this, but seeing as you posted a contribution to my backup guide, I feel compelled:
Learn anything? :P
