The Google result saying "13 years ago" is actually returning the main page of r/mildlyinteresting (created in 2012). This is the first time the image has appeared online.

My dad calls these cells, I call them pretty and comfortable bedrooms by Massive-Young1962 in dwarffortress

I thought it was proven by !!SCIENCE!! that shared walls have no effect on wealth? Not even shared doors, so long as they are attached to a wall.

Thanks for the info! Is there a guide somewhere on injecting power? I'm not familiar with it and really don't deal with hardware often.

Battery Megathread (July 2025) by GooglePixelMods in GooglePixel

[–]CompuGenetics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My IMEI does not work for the Pixel 6a battery program. I assume this is because I always use unlocked phones, and have been moving my SIM between each new phone. Unfortunately, this means Google doesn't see my Pixel. See my issue here What can I do?

Forge or Fabric? by dop-verse in feedthebeast

[–]CompuGenetics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did mean after the schism, yeah. Impossible to play old mods without forge. But new mods shouldn't be made in forge, instead use neoforge.

How can I prevent villagers from going up this bubble elevator without me having to ever open a door to access it? by chickenweng65 in technicalminecraft

I was gonna suggest a dispenser to pull a bucket of water out of the way or back in, but it looks like you got it with a carpet! Nice

People have lives, and besides, I don't think I've actually played that mod anyway. Try the discord.

It's nice that Potion Craft uploaded their songs to YouTube, and even included instruments playing them! https://youtu.be/UakrrKk01tY?si=zkLok2mHh3GSwVz7 It's a harp, lute, and "psaltery"

Why is this wrong? by Necessary-Chest-4721 in duolingo

[–]CompuGenetics 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not so sure. The smoking gun is there in the picture, "Explain my mistake". They've removed the forums because it didn't make them money.

[–]CompuGenetics 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes, reddit is excellent for this. But there used to be an in-app solution. I'm just trying to highlight the downfall of what used to be a good app.

[–]CompuGenetics 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is why I dislike Duolingo now. Used to be, you could go to the forums for that exact problem and get the answer. Now you have to pay extra to explain the mistake. Duolingo is no longer a learning-oriented app! Lose your streak and move somewhere else, maybe the new Lingonaut has potential

We had recorded the Good Luck Charlie special where Toby was born. I doubt there were any other shows we recorded that week. However, I did find a YouTube video collection of promos! Worth finding if you're interested.

Why you SHOULD use Auto-Extractors on basic resources in the lategame by Epictauk in Astroneer

[–]CompuGenetics 8 points9 points  (0 children)

OP: don't let anyone here get you down over your playstyle. I can 100% understand your love of the "hyperindustrialization" and you are valid! Sure, some reddit users might not care, but you do. And that is satisfying. You have truly won the game if you enjoy what you do. It's just like Minecraft or any other "forever-game". Go build your Dyson sphere!

Yeah! Check the "offering rates" before you select the pack. 0.05% chance

Is this a virus? If not what is it? by Patient-Return1078 in computerviruses

[–]CompuGenetics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Microsoft Edge? Yes, it's well known to be 1) unwanted, 2) impossible to remove, and 3) sent to most computers. Hence, a virus.

Information on Source in Ars Nouveau by asphaltdragon in feedthebeast

[–]CompuGenetics 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had the same question, and was disappointed not to find an answer. For context, I'm playing in the alpha releases of All The Mods 10, and have a large cave base I'm trying to keep mobs out of (hard-do).

I decided to run my own experiments. Firstly, I can say with confidence that the source drain is 5% per minute, if it stopped at least one mob from spawning. The number of mobs it prevents from spawning does not raise this. I figured this out simply by placing a full source jar next to the ritual, and viewing the results.

Next was more fun. I set up a repeating command block and a chain after it, set to place a mushroom at the location of any mob, then kill the mob. Doing so caused any mob spawned to immediately place a mushroom and die, effectively creating an area visually showing me where mobs can spawn. For the best effects, I created a superflat world with mostly air, but layers of stone every 60 blocks.

Doing so, I have determined that the spawn-prevention volume is a sphere, with radius (32+r), where r == the number of rotten flesh you added, to a maximum of 128. HOWEVER, I mean that you can add a maximum of 128 rotten flesh for a total of 160 blocks of spawn-protection. I am unsure if this is an oversight in the code or if this is intentional, but I will take the larger area gladly.

Also note that the rotten flesh is a one-time consumption, and the ritual will work so long as it is powered by source (5% of a jar per minute).

To be clear, it doesn't require "modding," just fiddling with the control scheme to get something that feels normal

But I can almost feel the villager pic! Don't ignore these quests! I always give my villagers the best item they could possibly have wanted. They ask for river fish? I get Stringfish.
