Brainfuck and P". Best there is.

Why is it everyone's favourite esoteric language is Brainfuck? It's so boring and the joke is old.

I prefer languages like Chef where the program is a recipe or Piet where the program is an image.

Why here is soo small count of replies?! ;c

Because you don't have any documentation so we have to read the source code to figure out what your API does.

And because GitHub is not a commonly used thing, so most people won't have a use for this.

I have to agree that while these enhancements are pretty cool to be built in, it would also be nice to see some features that can only be added to the Java side.

I'm disappointed that the HTTP API hasn't been fixed. If the HTTP API was capable of working with the oauth apis that are out there (twitter, facebook, instagram, dropbox, github, many many more) that would be a killer feature. Unfortunately it's the sort of thing that can only be done in the mod, not in Lua.

I honestly don't know. First computer my parents got was an Amstrad, on which I would occasionally fire up PC-DOS (basically the same as what it booted into, but fancier) or GEM. I have no idea what its initial environment was.

CP/M?

#158941 What has your first OS?

Locomotive Basic 1.1, if that even counts as an OS.

I can confirm optifine causes this issue. I noticed the same thing when I installed optifine, and thus I don't use it.

#158725 What would make 'the best OS'

Posted by distantcam on 31 December 2013 - 08:55 PM in General

Prior to .NET "Visual Basic" existed as a language (Visual Basic 1, 2, 3, etc) and an IDE with the same name. When .NET came along Visual Basic was changed to Visual Basic .NET and the IDE was renamed "Visual Studio".

Sure, let's see what happens.

From my discussions with Dan200 the new networking features are not secure, so they can still be intercepted wirelessly.

Process multitasking *new*

Ok this has me excited.

I'm guessing your web server is apache, so what you're after is mod_rewrite.

Nope. Still survival.

Yep, connected fine now.

Next problem, the server is survival, with mobs spawning, and I joined while it was night. Is it meant to be survival?

I am unable to connect with that modpack. The error was mismatched block ID's from IC2, ChickenChunks and EnderStorage.

#157752 MFSU Monitor

Posted by distantcam on 23 December 2013 - 07:32 AM in Programs

Nope, I didn't fail to realise that, that was exactly what I knew I had to do. I assume when you mean the API changed only once you're referring to the method names, but I would also consider the block type changing from batbox to MFSU part of the API too.

Well then that's odd because I've covered the old API case, and the current API case, so there must be a 3rd situation which means the API has changed at least twice.

uhhh, no you haven't.

Let's see.

OpenPeripherals 0.2.1 preview 8 (the current one)
- peripheral.getType(side) == "mfsu"
- methods are 'getEUCapacity' and 'getEUStored'

OpenPeripherals 0.1.9 (the one in FTB unleashed)
- peripheral.getType(side) == "batbox"
- methods are 'getCapacity' and getStored'

So what did I miss?

Edit: Based on Letherin's comments on the other thread there's another configuration.

OpenPeripherals ?.?.?
- peripheral.getType(side) == "batbox"
- methods are 'getEUCapacity' and 'getEUStored'

That looks like at least 2 changes to me.
