Welcome to General Memes

Memes for the masses, chuckles for the chosen.

Rule 1: Be Civil, Not CruelWe’re here for laughs, not fights.

  • No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
  • No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
  • Keep it light — argue in the comments, not with insults

Rule 2: No Forbidden FormatsNot every image deserves immortality on the memmlefield. That means:

  • No spam or scams
  • No porn or sexually explicit content
  • No illegal content (seriously, don’t ruin the fun)
  • NSFW memes must be properly tagged

If you see a post that breaks the rules, report it so the mods can take care of it.

Otherwise consider this your call to duty. Get posting or laughing. Up to you

You know the funny thing about that is some Minecraft mods use Bauxite as the name for the ore and ingots to sidestep the debate on how to spell/pronounce the metal lol

I'm going with 'box-ite', and if that's wrong somehow, I'm removing it from the server, rofl.

I never realized that, time to make a mod that renames those instances aluminum!

[–] Truscape@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

if(item(forgedict:bauxite)){

replacePrefix(Aluminum)

};

Uh, does that break every single mod with a recipe involving bauxuminium, or no?

  1. It's pseudocode, since I don't know how to program in Java

  2. Technically no, because it's not modifying the item's forge dictionary internal ID, just the displayed string in the two-word combination (IE: "Bauxite Ingot" -> "Aluminum Ingot")

Hey fair enough, its been... a number of years since I ran a MC server!

I ... don't actually remember the precise syntax anymore either, lol.
