gollark: I kind of prefer ComputerCraft because all the OC microcrafting is annoying.
gollark: Wait, are there computer mods? I quite like having those around for fiddly automation stuff.
gollark: Maybe. I don't know much about funky locomotion.
gollark: Or move the digital miner around on funky locomotion for some odd reason, I guess. I think that'd be possible.
