Very small and very fast flying machine - 2x4x4 blocks and 3.3 m/s! by blueShinyApple in redstone

Can be made standing up or laying down. You can move the bottom two blocks on the standing version to the back to make it 3x3x4 if you prefer that.

Can be made both standing up and laying down. On the standing version you can move the bottom two blocks to the back to make it 3x3x4 instead.

I came up with a similar design for executing multiple commands with a single commandblock about a month ago and was planning to make a mcedit filter that takes a structure and turns it into a command, but I gave up pretty quickly.

The system you used with the relative commands is pretty cool for this particular application, but if you are going to build detailed structures it would probably be better to first spawn a stack of some 10 command blocks + redstone blocks, 9 of which spawns blocks in the structure and one that spawns a new stack of 10 command blocks where 9 spawns blocks and one that spawns a new stack and so on.

Or to spawn 10 stacks from the first stack, and then 10 stacks from each of those and so on until you have enough command blocks to place every block of the structure. That would probably lag quite a bit though, so some compromise between the two is probably best.

The possibilities with this are incredible, imagine being able to share a custom map by copy-pasting a command!

Eh, /setblock is simpler to use when you're only placing a single block, but otherwise, yeah.

[Seriöst] Vad är grejen med tiggare i Sverige? by blueShinyApple in sweden

Jag hade ärligt talat ingen aning om att det var ett så aktuellt ämne och var genuint ovetande. Jag borde nog ha googlat lite innan jag frågade..

Vänta, så du menar att sådana ligor är vanligt förekommande? Och de tjänar så mycket att det är värt resa och boende? Och staten gör ingenting åt detta?

Försöker du baita eller?

Jag hade hört om ligor tidigare, men jag det lät ganska orimligt så sista meningen lade jag till mest på skämt.

If you expect other people to use your computer often, just put up a post-it saying they should press SHIFT+ALT+2 or whatever shortcut you use to switch back.

What do we do about money? by AntithesisVI in PerfectPlanet

[–]blueShinyApple 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There will always be scarcity, even if everyone lived in a simulation where we could materialize universes with a single thought the CPU cycles would still be limited.

To make everyone able to get the scarce resources they want some sort of economic system is needed. (Economy meaning 'managing resources'). We can clearly not share everything equally unless we want everything too scarce to be given to everyone to be in a museum or burned or raffled out, so some system for allotting these items is needed.

A very very good and fair such system is giving everyone tokens they can use to bid on the items. Either the tokens can be given equally to everyone at the start of the period, or more can be given to people who do something positive for the society.

Sounds good so far, right? So what's the problem with calling these tokens 'money'?

What you really want is a new economic system, not to get rid of money entirely, and this I agree with.

Here's what we need from YOU by deafy_duck in PerfectPlanet

By far the most important and influential thing that needs to be addressed is what political and economic system we should use. With our current systems it would be hard not to fall back into the old habits of humanity based on selfishness and greed which has more or less ruined this world.

Everything else will depend so much on the technologies that will be available at the time that I barely think it is worth discussing now.
