gollark: I've heard it's a bit unpolished.
gollark: Nuclearcraft makes meltdowns just result in the reactor turning into a pile of corium, so it's nicer but not too easy.
gollark: Anyway, I'll assemble a modpack and hopefully have it up by this evening.
gollark: There are many things in GTCE for which you need one weird rare metal/gem once then never again, from my JEI checking.
gollark: "Why do I have tetrahedrite? What *is* tetrahedrite? I'll just check JEI... it's copper ore, but I need 5000 GTCE machines to use it."
