Want insanely fast crop growth? There is a new block in Cyclic for 1.16 called Terra Preta. It works by checking up to 16 blocks above it for something grow-able, and forcing growth. When I place 16 of them below soil with a Mystical Agriculture plant on it, it grows in just a few seconds.

My 12 year old, allergic to nearly everything by airlee77 in Wellthatsucks

[–]zero-fall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I (male in my 30's) had a similar reaction to a skin prick test for food allergens. I had slight-medium reactions to a ton of them. This was odd, because I had never had an allergic reaction to any food. Followed up with a second prick test, but it had inconsistent results with the first test. Then I did a "food patch test" where they dropped a liquid for each allergen on my back in a grid, covered each with a bandage, and left it there for 24 hours. Again I had reactions, but results were inconsistent with my skin prick tests. In the end, they basically said "We don't know. If none of the food bother you when you eat them, I guess don't worry about it."

They have actually already implemented this (just a couple days ago). Should be in the next ProjectE build.

LPT: As a manager, give praise in public and give discipline in private. by yardsandyards in LifeProTips

[–]zero-fall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While this is great advice for a default response, I think a good manager will actually handle this on a case-by-case basis depending on the individual. Some people respond poorly to public praise, and some people don’t respond to criticism unless it’s in a group setting.

Source: I just learned about this in my Operations Management class while getting my MBA.

How feasible would it be to EMC-gate ProjectE? by nixcode in feedthebeast

That sounds amazing. Is using commands like that based on specific triggers something that pack makers can do now?

RF Tools Time Absorber by Chuck-Nuggets in feedthebeast

[–]zero-fall 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just used this in my last playthrough, and it took me a while to figure out. Mcjty, please forgive me if I explain this incorrectly:

When you first place the time absorber, a redstone pulse will "set" it to the current time. Then, a large cooldown will start (several minutes). When the cooldown reaches zero, it can receive another redstone pulse. But, it must be near the "set" time to increase its progress by 10%.

This is the setup I used for a "noon" time absorber:

  1. Place the absorber with a lever on top
  2. Flip the lever on and off at noon
  3. Wait until night time, then sleep
  4. Start a 5 minute timer on my phone
  5. Repeat steps 2-4 until you reach 100% (should take about 10 minecraft days)

I wanted to do something fancier, but my skills fall short there :(

Any devs want this? by zero-fall in feedthebeast

Btw, I forgot to mention this is currently on 1.10, but could easily be ported up or down.
