What they failed to realise is teachers can have a unique ability to make kids hate a subject.

If you force them to do it, they can do it really badly without it being obvious.

I can imagine reading the Bible word for for in monotone from day 1 won't be a good experience.

In the UK, we call it a minnie for girls. Willy for boys.

Good luck finding doctors bold enough to admit they have no idea and need help...

I think it's f to go forward one page, b for back. Down arrow goes down a line etc.

How can you feel good about yourself if you aren't shaming people with less technical capabilities? Next you'll say something crazy like believing in yourself. Nonsense, crazy person. Get out of here.

You've nailed this here, yet get downvotes. The amount of times I've gone to a man page and my eyes glaze over. Really handy to learn new flags or if you forget, but as an introductory material. They don't work for everyone. People learn in different ways, sometimes by doing and my brain isn't wired this way.

VoxeLibre has intended to not be Minecraft clone for a long time now. There has been burgers in the base game for 17 months now. Unfortunately, every time someone tries to do something different, they get a hostile reception. The name is a liability, and not representative of what the project plans to be. The name change is about where the game plans to be, not where it was in the past. MineClone2 is a dreadful name. It's like calling it rubbish MC rip-off 2.

He's the first member... Of the DK crew!

I've said goodbye to the MineCraft I once knew, if we want something better, we make it, improve it and share it! :)

I think the other response was quite accurate. Different language and architecture makes it harder. There are mods made for minetest that can work with MineClone2, so there may be some stuff you'll enjoy, but usually they have to specify it's available for MineClone2. Here is a page if you want to have a look: https://content.minetest.net/packages/Wuzzy/mineclone2/hub/

Minetest modding is actually quite nice to do from what I've heard.

Humans can judge information make decisions on it and adapt it. AI mostly just looks at what is statistically what is most likely based on training data. If 1 piece of data exists, it will copy, not paraphrase. Example was from I think copilot where it just printed out the code and comments from an old game verbatim. I think Quake2. It isn't intelligence, it is statistical copying.

That is true. Probably why there is a drop of blood hanging off the union jack. However, when someone is not only overwriting the British flag, but with the blue pixels and shape of the Scottish flag, it cannot be a coincidence.

 

Shout out to the guys who did the awesome Minecraft art (not us). It was only appropriate as a FOSS Minecraft clone, to join as neighbours :).
