gollark: Unless you want to call Thaumcraft a tech mod.
gollark: I mean, you could also say that a "tech mod" is... some mod providing automation tools and ways to make things or whatever, and a magic mod... isn't? But most magic mods do still have neat automation stuff.
gollark: I think the best way to judge if something is a tech mod is basically just the aesthetic, i.e. does it look like a "magic thing" or "tech thing".
gollark: You said speech *recognition*, not *generation*, make your mind up.
gollark: They're also a giant company which can throw lots of people, compute time, and other resources at it.
