This reminds me of the time circa 1992 when my brothers convinced me to ride a scrap lawnmower chassis down the big hill near our house. They didn't consider it important to actually attach the lawnchair so it just fell apart when it got up to speed.

I'm still kind of mad about it lol

But it can only target humanoids

I called 911 a few years ago and they had a police officer call me back when he got to my neighborhood. I had to do this a few times as the incident repeated a few days later. Each time the officer called me his number was hidden.

That's the only time I've ever had a call from a hidden number that was not a scam, but I would be hesitant to block them all

That also makes it illegal to nuke hurricanes

You may be looking for what they call a "kitchen sink pack" The standard kitchen sink pack IMO is the Direwolf20 pack

1.7.10 was a long time ago so a lot of mods are missing, such as Botania

Some excellent new ones are added though, such as Ars Nouveau and most recently Create

I am a longtime fan of Debian Stable, for exactly that reason. I installed the XFCE version using the custom installer about 8 years ago and have had very few issues.

Initially my GPU wasn't well supported so I had to use the installer from Nvidia, forcing me to manually reinstall the driver after every kernel update. That issue has been fixed in recent years so now I can just use the driver from the Debian repos.

I installed the unattended-updates package about 2 years ago and it has been smooth sailing since

To my untrained eye it looks like raspberry. Raspberry plants propagate through underground runners, which just look like any random stick

I have some bad news for you - any random idiot with a driver's license and a two-ton death machine already puts your ass at risk, all the time. We call it "traffic" because we've just gotten used to it
