More Minecraft Insanity: Dude Building A Computer In-Game
I don't want to turn our site into Minecraft Informer or anything, but there are some seriously crazy things happening in this game that I am compelled to share. Yesterday, Adam showed off the U.S.S. Enterprise that one intrepid Minecrafter is building. Today, I bring you something even more ridiculous.
YouTube user theinternetftw posted the video below, where he shows off how he has put together a working ALU circuit in Minecraft. An ALU or "arithmetic logic unit" is basically the first piece of a fully functioning computer.
I don't fully understand the technical mumbo-jumbo behind it all, but as it's explained in the video, once theinternetftw's project is complete, it will be able to power a working computer, albeit a very slow computer. So...that is insane. Check it out for yourself in the video and share your favorite ludicrous Minecraft story in the comments.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
