Every day we get closer to my dream of hosting a Minecraft server inside of a Minecraft server.

What’s left here? I never took operating systems, going direct from EE bachelor to CS master’s, so this post/comment is perfectly at the gap in my education—I understand the metal->transistor->flop memory we see here, and the server->application->Minecraft you’re imagining, what needs to be built from red stone to go from flop memory->server?

#14Now we can recreate the Hackers(1995) movie scene(s) about the files:

#15This is really cool, I've always liked the idea of being super close to hardware, like being able to visually inspect it, walk around it like it's your kitchen or something, and make modifications to it. Something akin to walking downtown NYC or any big city

#16How about a Minecraft server that contains its own data in the world.
This would be such a fun idea for a game/server

Just someone willing to build a full ARM emulator with VGA and IO in redstone.
Once you can get Linux booting, you can start writing kernel modules to support the various redstone IO devices.
Once that’s all hooked up, you try compiling Java. Once Java is running you’re off.
It’d probably be terribly slow though, unless you made a redstone optimized CPU. Then you’d need to get Linux building on that.

The cool thing is these were physical plastic models rather than CGI renders.

#20All fun and games until Enderman starts shitting bad sectors all over the place
Wouldn't be too hard to add some hamming encoding
