So if anybody finds themselves near my neck of the woods, I've built a simple furnace/hopper mechanism in my shack for anybody to use.  If you use it, please put some coal or wood or something back in it so I and others can continue to use it.  ANYWAY, I just thought I'd throw it out there.

 

To use it just deposit your fuel into the side hopper and deposit the thing you wish to smelt or cook into the top hopper.  When it's done, the resulting item(s) will be placed in the chest that is underneath the furnace.  I'm not sure if there's something like this already in the spawn area or not, but I built it out here for myself and if you come across it and would like to use it, go ahead.

 

The shack is currently being expanded on, but I'll probably leave the structure in this spot and venture forth into other areas as the need arises.  There's an interesting looking mountain nearby I may pay a visit to, or I may just start burrowing right outside my door, :p

Spigot, with the Essentials plug-in.

Thanks, :-)

 

I'm done for the night, I have to go to work tomorow.  I've played Minecraft on the Neowin server for something like 6 hours now, lol.  My time though, has been quite productive, and I've got lots more work to do in the dungeon I managed to find, here's some screenshots, :-)

By the way, I just thought I'd let you guys know that apparently there's a dungeon under the starting area, :p There was some sort of a hiccup in the starting area and the ground disappeared (although I could still walk on it) and here's what I saw under my feet.  Somebody has apparently cleared it, I see all kinds of torches in it, but still interesting.

Is the server up?

 

I haven't had any issues connecting to it over the weekend. There might be a brief downtime tonight European time - I want to check if there are any updates for Spigot and the plug-ins we use.

I've noticed that sometimes in the world list on my client it might say something like "cannot connect", but when I click on it to enter it connects just fine.

Just made my first map, and I've noticed it gets automagically filled in.  Just out of curiosity, do I still have to make a new map for each "map" of the world I move into, or will this one work since the map is already filled in?

nevermind about the multiplayer sleeping post.  It doesn't work with spigot.

There is a spigot plugin to handle this: https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/single-player-sleep.20173/

 

Perhaps we can install that when the server is upgraded?

I'll keep it in mind.

Note: The server upgrade depends on how quickly Spigot is updated. Chances are Spigot 1.9.4 will be out by the time I get home in roughly six hours.

    • Microsoft launches Godot Sample to streamline Xbox PC game development on the engine

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Microsoft launches Godot Sample to streamline Xbox PC game development on the engine by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Microsoft today announced a new endeavor that aims to make it simpler for Godot developers to get their products into the Xbox PC ecosystem. Dubbed the "XBOX Godot Sample," this is a new public reference for developers using the open-source engine. This is set to serve as an example of how Microsoft GDK, Xbox Services, and PlayFab can be integrated into their projects. The sample is available now on GitHub as a working example. This covers key features in gaming projects that developers may need to release their projects on Xbox PC, with everything from matchmaking and game sign-in to gamepad compatibility with Godot being covered. This release is being called the first step in giving Godot developers the tools to bring their games over to Xbox PC, with more changes to come based on feedback and issue reports. However, the company was clear that this is not related to bringing Godot projects to Xbox consoles. The engine's open development model stops it from accessing console SDKs due to the requirement of NDAs and legal contracts. Here's how it explained this Godot sample project's focus: This is a source-only sample, not a product. It's MIT-licensed at the wrapper layer; the GDK and PlayFab dependencies still require their own installs and license acceptance, consistent with our other XBOX samples. There is no set update cadence for support or maintenance. We’ll watch the repo, monitor issues, and iterate where it makes sense, but this isn't a commercial release. That said, we’re excited to hear your feedback and see any community PRs, as we evolve this together. This is the first step in bringing Godot for XBOX on PC. We plan to evolve it over time based on what the community tells us is most valuable. This sample is built specifically for XBOX on PC. It doesn’t include support for XBOX Series X|S or XBOX One. If you’re already building for XBOX Series X|S or XBOX One, please talk with your XBOX representative. If not, you can get started by signing up here. Game developers can find the XBOX Godot Sample by heading to GitHub over here. Documentation on how to get started with Godot for building an Xbox PC project can be seen here.

    • Browser vendors pen open letter to Microsoft saying "enough is enough"

      I don't understand the vision. Do people really want to buy a new computer from Dell with 6 browsers installed? We all keep asking for Microsoft to stop having so much junk on their OS, and adding a bunch of browsers seems to go against that. Ideally, we would just be asked what browser we want during OOBE but Google is just going to pay Dell a bunch of money to include Chrome. Additionally, would you want your phones to start including all the browsers too when you get them? The only thing I ever wanted was to be able to uninstall IE or edge and I believe you are now able to. I do agree that microsoft needs to chill with their "are you sure you don't want to try edge before you install chrome" ads when going to download chrome.

      It is notable that around 70% of web browser users choose Google Chrome. However, it is puzzling why anyone on Windows would opt for Chrome when Microsoft Edge is often superior in many aspects and comes pre-installed. Edge collects less data, uses less RAM, and is more optimized for Windows as a native Microsoft product. While some may point to bloat in Edge, much of it can be removed with simple tools, requiring no more effort than installing Chrome. Meanwhile, Chrome reportedly downloads large amounts of AI data (4 GB) without explicit consent. I'm sure you Chrome users love that, or? Here is one example of a tool that doesn't even need to be installed to be able to use: https://github.com/TheBobPony/MSEdgeTweaker Although Microsoft’s aggressive promotion of Edge may be questionable, the browser’s current advantages make it a preferable choice over Chrome today, even if Chrome may have been better in the past.
    • JetBrains rolls out IntelliJ IDEA update with Markdown preview fixes and more

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      JetBrains rolls out IntelliJ IDEA update with Markdown preview fixes and more by David Uzondu Image via JetBrains IntelliJ 2026.1.3 from JetBrains has landed, bringing several highly requested bug fixes that target common UI glitches and terminal rendering issues. If you run tmux inside the integrated terminal, the IDE no longer renders the cursor above the active line. The Markdown preview bug, which was fixed in this release, had annoyed developers for quite some time, as the preview pane failed to render images saved outside the project directory. Instead of displaying the actual image, the IDE simply showed a broken image icon, a problem that stuck around for two years before this update. Over on Windows, developers running WSL can now use wsl.exe to spin up their environments without losing terminal functionality. In previous builds, launching a terminal shell with something like wsl.exe -d ubuntu inside a Windows-based project broke both shell integration and active process detection. Other bug fixes in this release include: An issue where Gradle sync incorrectly reported success as a failure on WSL when using Gradle 9.5.0. A syntax highlighting bug that flagged valid Java for-loop initialization blocks with multiple statements as incorrect. A warning bug that triggered a false non-null local variable alert when using JSpecify annotations. A database generation bug that hid the option to use a DELETE statement instead of a TRUNCATE checkbox. A Kotlin highlighting failure where an assertion error in the Gradle redundant library inspection broke error highlighting. A UI bug where the ComboBox popup lacked a maximum height restriction. A Snowflake syntax error where DataGrip failed to support the "create temp" command. A Svelte syntax parsing failure that incorrectly flagged quotes inside inline expressions. A VCS repository manager deadlock that triggered thread pool exhaustion. A memory leak where the LazyTree component kept all previous versions of a tree in memory. IntelliJ 2026.1.3 is the third bug fix release for the IntelliJ 2026.1 series. The first one landed back in April with a fix for the WSL Python interpreter freeze, another fix for guest participants using Emmet abbreviations, and corrected WildFly server deployment errors.
