Are you listening, Pig?
Reddit user, 'theinternetftw' has uploaded a video to YouTube showing off his working ALU made in Minecraft from in-game redstone logic. Unfortunately, while it's a working math processor, users need to know binary to read the output since there's no crafting for LCD screen. Yet.
The video is long, but if there ever was a proper use of the term 'epic', this would be it.
Grab a cup of tea and a few dunky bickies before watching it below and hopefully you'll spot the introductory reference to have a gamely chortle as well.
Obviously much respect to the talent there, but is it just me or does he sound like he's from South Park?
Oh, and if you're not sure what Minecraft is and you can't be bothered to check out Joe's explanation in his Free Games I Like: Minecraft blog then you can check out the trailer below for a quicker explanation.

Take mine aswell... it's cold out there >.<
I'm confiscating this guys wasted time... I need more to play games.
That looks amazing, until you find out that he imported it instead of actually building it.
Whatever happened to people toiling away for days on end to do these things? Kids these days....
Though the full blog is nice and well written as always :p
Always woundered what that squeeling was comming from my pc.
I can see what he means.
So, it being imported. That means he didn't build it?
I must say, that at certain parts, it didn't really sound like he knew what he was talking about.
And, I can't see any point for this.
Why would anyone want a computer, inside a computer game, inside a computer?
lol :D yeah gate logic can be fun (I guess)
the pigs keep him sane
The Difference Engine perhaps?
As HourBeforeDawn says, a big waste of time, but is pretty cool nonetheless ;)
