I watched BBC breakfast discuss Freddie Starr this morning and the fact he used to dress up as hitler in wellies, suggesting there was something wrong with his type of humour. Thats the PC i hate. Thoughtless and reactionary. He was laughing at Nazis you smug pricks. Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

Will everyone be up for this next year? I was thinking we could do an entry fee.. say £10 entry, if there's around 10 of us again, we could do £50 for 1st place, £50 into the FG Fund? Just an idea

Sorry i've just read it back and that's not what i meant at all, i meant others who are more clearly racist, sexist etc should be sacked. I agree that his sacking could be seen as harsh but like you say anyone who has a voice in this world should pay more attention to what they are posting./saying. When Kayne said slavery sounded like a choice, that was one of the most offense things i've ever heard and i didn't think i got offended by things. I definitely don't want the world to be more PC, hell i laugh at almost anything. I just think with the racist talk that's been going around about Meghan, you have to think about what you post. Unfortunately the line is pretty blurred with things you can post/say now because there always someone who will be offended. An issue that you could run into is people posting things that could be taken as both ways then saying oh that's not what i meant by it, when that was exactly what they meant (i'm not for one second saying he's racist) Another issue is that common sense is no longer common, i don't think someone should be punished for not having common sense but they have to at least try. The more i type the more i go round in circles, can't people just not be racist then someone would be able to post a picture like this and it not be taken offensively. He's been undone by the fact that people are racist and people get offended by things......also it's the Royal Family. Part of me feels for him and another part thinks, you're an idiot.

Babestation😎

Yeah i'm up for that

That would certainly make me pay more attention (no pun intended). Great idea

No, no he was wrong. Sorry Dave! Tbh, Wolves are the highest non Big 6 club so fair play to that one. Why o why did I think Man Utd 🙈 they started well but lost their way with Mourinho. Villa seem like they could be okay in the playoffs so would be good one kinda right. I also fancied Spurs (@ChaosGladiator didn't 😉) to do well and they've probably proved many wrong considering they held on to the top 2 for as long as they could without any signings whatsoever.

About fucking time something was done about the unregulated and unchecked greed by games publishers. Publishers will be pissed about this but fuck 'em. If anybody watches Jim Sterling's videos he said this would happen because the games industry wouldn't regulate itself.

I’m aware how complex a mod pack FTB Beyond is so I have been meaning to make this guide for a while. I’m far from an expert at this pack so there is probably things I have missed but happy to add to this guide if/when people point out missing stuff. This isn’t meant so much as tips and tricks of Beyond or a ‘Here is what I do’ guide (this is below). So rather than specifically recommend use item x or item y, I’m going to try and just list things in groups so you can look up possibilities and then decide what you want to use. To start with, lets get some basic information / terminology out the way Tick (t) – The speed of a games engine, in Minecraft this is 20 times per second (or 0.05 seconds per tick) RF – Redstone Flux – the most common unit of power in this pack RF/t – The measure of how much power something produces or uses GP – Grid Power – Used by Extra Utilities and is another unit of power but less commonly used than RF EU – Energy Unit – Used by Industrial Craft and is another unit of power but again less common than RF Multiblock / assembly – a machine made up of multiple blocks in a specific order / pattern to work. Chunk - A chunk is Minecrafts world sectors that divide the world in to manageable pieces. A chunk is 16x16 blocks and goes from bedrock to build limit (y255). If you ever need to see the chunks, pressing F3+G will show chunk borders (F3+G will turn them off too) Some other general tips for this mod pack Crafting – When you open up your inventory or crafting menu, you have JEI/NEI on the side which is a searchable list of all items in all the mods. Left clicking an item will tell you how to craft that item. Most items can be crafted in a crafting bench like vanilla but others will require a special process or have multiple ways to craft / obtain them. If the item requires a special process / machine, left clicking on the machine to the side of the crafting menu will tell you the recipe for that machine. If you come across something and you don’t know what it is, right clicking on it in the JEI / NEI menu will tell you all the recipes that item is used in. For example, left clicking red dye will show you that you need to craft it from a rose. Right clicking the red dye will show you how to use it to make red glass, red clay, red wool etc. Some mods you may want to make numerous items from or want to craft all the items for a multiblock. If you search the JEI / NEI menu by typing @ followed by the mod name it will give you all the items for that mod. For example; @EnderIO will give you all the blocks added by Ender IO, @Tinkers will give you all the items added by Tinkers Construct etc. By default, press full stop will open up the map to show where you have been. Double clicking on the map will allow you to set a waypoint wherever you click. Alternatively if you want to place a waypoint where you currently are you can press comma to do so. Once you set a waypoint you can teleport to it which allows you get around large distance easily. Way points can be set in all dimensions (overworld, nether, mining world etc) but you can only teleport between waypoints in the dimension you’re currently in (there are ways to teleport between dimensions but more on that later). I mentioned powered above, at some point during your play through of the Beyond mod pack you are going to need power. How much power you want or need to generate will depend on what you’re doing and/or how often you’re doing it (generally the faster you want something done, the more power you’re going to need). To give some indication or expectation, the first powered machines you’ll get in to don’t require much power at around 40 RF/t – 60 RF/t each. If you aren’t producing enough power, most machines will still progress through their action but at much a much slower rate. Depending on what mods you get in to by the end game, you may need a lot more power as certain machines can take millions of RF/t each. It isn’t really something to worry about too much though as you get in to building more powerful machines you’ll also be in the position to generate more RF/t too. There is a chunk loader in this mod pack which is very useful as it means you can keep your base powered, machines running etc. while you're away from your base or in a different dimension (especially useful if you have tools or armour powered by RF). To chunk load an area, bring up your inventory and you will need to join a team (icon of 3 people). Once you're in a team you can claim chunks and then chunk load them, open your inventory and on left hand side click claimed chunks (looks like a little map). This opens up a map for you to claim chunks and/or chunk load them. To claim them left click a chunk, to unclaim a chunk right click a claimed chunk. To chunk load, shift left click a claimed chunk, to unchunk load shift right click a chunk. So lets move on to some specifics; Some of the below I have split in to early game and mid to late game. To remove the opinion element from what is considered early, mid or late game I am basing early game on items obtainable by manual mining. Mid to late game items are also obtainable by manual mining if you wanted but more reasonably these are achievable once you have some form of auto miners. Rather than have a massive list in one thread, I've spoiler tagged everything both so you don't see thing you want to find out for yourself and to keep this a little shorter as you can open the sections you need. Mining/tools Storage options Power Generation Early Game Power Generation Mid and Late game Ore Processing Auto mining / block generation Power Transfer Item Transfer Movement and teleporters Mob farms / Mob killing

It is. Just wonder how long will this actually take to resolve?

Great idea @Dan94 (should add that to our suggestions tracker! )

Firefly suffers because it’s over hyped. I love and think it is one if the best sci fi shows. However I first watched it years ago with no expectation, without the cult following it now has. So I think some people go in with such high expectations which it then can’t meet. Still it is good and, if you like your comedy/sci-fi, worth watching. I couldn’t get in with it, I don’t really know why. By my general tastes in shows, I should love it but I watched about half the first season and it never grabbed me. I never got that I want to watch the next episode and realised I was more watching it because other people had said it was good rather than I was enjoying it.

I'm liking the look and vibe of this game.

I've literally sat here listening and watching this for far longer than anyone should...

Mate, nothing surprises me about human beings, just take a look at our behaviour throughout history. We have the same brains we had when we were living in caves. With humour, I prefer to punch up than punch down, if you know what I mean. And if I think someone's humour is promoting inaccurate stereotypes I stop calling it humour, i call it what it is, nastiness. Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

Fearless Fantasy https://store.steampowered.com/app/282100/Fearless_Fantasy/ and Divide By Sheep https://store.steampowered.com/app/252130/Divide_By_Sheep/ both free on Steam until May 13th.

Started playing Rage on PC and impressed that it still looks pretty good. Think i may be getting too hyped for Rage 2. It's 35 quid on the humbke store and i have a week off work at the end of the month. Wonder if John Goodman returns to voice a character. I could probably present these sentences in a better order.

I think Lee hit the nail on the head. I also heard he posted it then deleted the the tweet and apologised. I just read Dara Obrians (however it's spelt) take on it and it's more common sense. There's alot of stuff these days either taken out of context or called racist etc that clearly isn't or isn't intended... especially on twitter

Didn't hear about this at all. Now reading what you guys have put i'm kinda with Phil's point above. If you are in anyway shape or form in the social media spotlight you can't really make any jokes that insinuate racism. Can't even go anywhere near it. I wouldn't go as far as you though Rich, I don't want to see a world where we go too PC we can't do or say anything in fear of getting sacked. A lot of people on the dole which means more of people we have to pay for through our taxes.

Poor Glenn Hoddle's heart! That man had a heart attack last year, has suffered the quarter and semi finals and now he has to suffer the final.

Haven't had a chance to watch the highlights yet, going to save it till i get home and can crank up the volume. Congrats to Spurs, hope you win the whole thing! What you doing for the game @phil bottle ?

Last night reminded me a lot of the night Peter Crouch scored against Man City and got us into the Champions League for the first time ever. That and Gazza's goal versus the Arse in the 91 FA semi-final. 'Spursy' has taken on a new meaning. Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

Was meant to write something myself but got dragged away to a meeting. Seems like people are still dicks, fair play to them for walking out and taking a stand. There's too many big dicks in this world who think they can get away with anything and everything and too many people who are higher than them that will protect them.

I bought the Firefly series in an Amazon sale as I heard it was decent but not watched it yet. Good is it? Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

I was completely wrong, Utd didn't come first, unless the FA wants to dock a load of points to the teams above us? 😬

Got a few right but a fuckload wrong😎

This is pretty funny

OOF. Hard to know these days if this was a mistake or some $tarbuck$ product placement😂

The above is more sign posting, pointing you in the direction of mods or items you can use to achieve specific things. This post is more of a how to guide, specifically setting out ways to do thing. I don't plan on covering everything in this mod pack, that would simply take too long but I do plan on covering early game things as this is where the mod pack is most confusing to new players. Warning: These are specific how to guide, recommending what blocks / machines to use so if you want to find things out for yourself don't open these. So that out the way, lets start with; Early game power generation (specifically RF) Option 1 Option 2 This covers what I think is the easiest / best way to produce your first power in this modpack. Generating more power Extreme Reactors Mob Spawning / Mob Farms Mob Killing Mob drops collection If you want a guide on anything specific, if I know how to do it I will make one
