@feditips I never understood why it was almost all turned off to begin with.

@tunnel I played Minecraft since Alpha, and have been turning to modded Minecraft pretty darn early. Never ever touched Bedrock version myself because it was not 'modded enough' to begin with. I love the freedom that the Java version gives me, even though performance sometimes is abysmal, especially in the heavier modpacks.

So my knowledge of Bedrock is nonexistant I'm afraid. Just that my cousins are playing it on their Switches, but I bet that's probably vanilla Minecraft.

For modding Minecraft you actually don't really have to hack up Minecraft code. You can choose to go for Fabric, or Forge, or uh.. the other thingies, Spigot? They're all modloaders which already takes care of the hacking part and provides hooks for modders to mod into. So it's a bit easier.

As result, there really are a _shitton_ of mods available for the Java version. Forge's most popular but Fabric is gaining territory as well and is a bit lighter on resources I've noticed. Some modders choose to release their mods for both, some are exclusively the one or other.

Spigot (If that still exists) is another way but I've left that scene (from when it was still Bukkit, iirc) a long time ago for Forge. Mind you, I don't make mods myself.

I did notice a performance improvement with the latest Minecraft, though. 1.12 had this one great modpack but it'd make our badass server whine. 1.14 I didn't play too much. 1.16 made my client whine. 1.18 ... is an improvement. Even loading up the game somehow doesn't take 10 minutes anymore but just around 1 minute or so. So I'd say Java is improving.

@takloufer
If any, @Sphinx might be highly amused by this silly conversation. ;)

@johnabs

@PawelK Also 'getting independent from Russian gas' in progress. Transition period I guess.

@rastinza Plane, train, or car. Take your pick. ;)
Bicycle is a possibility too but less likely.

@faticake

@Sphinx Lol. Okay, it's about 37,3C, that's not too bad actually.

@Sphinx Why didn't you just mention it in C then? There are a lot of people here understanding C! Let the Americans convert!

But really, get well soon, take plenty of rest... Don't stress yourself! Take care!

@faticake Oh my ... I can see why you hate this keyboard. I hate that enter key with a passion already. That enter key should be almost like the shift below, and the ç really should be ABOVE it or something like that.
I feel your pain!

@rastinza

@rastinza @faticake Nope. Considering the little 'o' on top of that A, I checked the Scandinavian keyboard layouts. This one looks to be Swedish.

@jnsmqn Neat! We don't have to do them anymore either, unless you need to go somewhere official requiring proof or on a holiday.

I'm currently playing a new Minecraft modpack called All Of Fabric 5. It uses Fabric instead of Forge, so that part is new to me. Though Fabric is easy to put up on a server, it's basically automated.

Anyway! So I'm playing this modpack for two weeks now and some mods are pretty new to me. I wondered if there was anything akin to Ender Chests and I'm pretty happy that they have an alternative called Entangled Chests! And Tanks! And Buckets! And Bags!

Not seeing anything for wireless long-distance power yet, but that can be worked around by converting stuff into lava, pumping it over, and converting back to power!

So far I'm liking Fabric, it's faster to boot up and it's lighter on resources usage!

@allergianalyudey Hehehehe, that looks way more amusing than I expected. ;)

@sean That would be awesome! Just don't rush yourself, you know. Make it a long term goal and take your time! It's a very nice goal!
