gollark: AutoRegLib is a quark dependency, Baubles is probably important for something, weirdinggadget is chunkloaders, Inventory Tweaks is kind of useful, I don't know what STG is, CTM-MC is connected texture mod.
gollark: My mum has a 2010-era laptop with a core 2 duo, 4GB of RAM, and a 500GB hard disk. It must have been good at the time or something.
