gollark: Have you tried the newer thermal whatevers?
gollark: I don't like 1.7.10 T* much anyway.
gollark: The problem is that I constantly think "I need X mod!" and then it gets to 100 mods or something.
gollark: What I'd quite like to play is a lightweight 1.7.10 reika pack for use on my terrible server/computer.
gollark: It's a shame there's no 1.7.10 Psi, though it probably wouldn't get into this pack anyway.
