gollark: Why would I consume those?
gollark: I have far more advanced technology than you. I can actually afford AE2.
gollark: You have AE2 but *not* autocrafting or replicators? Weird.
gollark: Did you also make a storage scanner? The pack devs seem to have deliberately made it slightly more accessible. It's sort of a worse AE2 terminal with a very good remote option.
gollark: It's surprisingly cheap.
