Change Minecraft Save Location?


Answer :

The Minecraft launcher allows you to change the folder it places your saves in (among other things) via the profile settings.

  1. Create a "Minecraft" folder on a shared drive. Make sure you have read/write access to this folder from both Windows and Linux.

  2. Start the Minecraft Launcher and click on Installations

  3. Hover over the profile you want to change, click on ..., then Edit.

  4. Enter the folder on your shared drive in the Box labeled "Game Directory". The game will now place saves, resourcepacks, screenshots and crash-reports (maybe some more folders) in this Directory.

  5. Repeat on the other OS.


Create a folder called saves somewhere in your shared drive. (eg. D:\Xyz\saves). Move your worlds(if you have any saved) to this folder.

Then in Windows, create a symlimk to the folder:

  1. Open elevated cmd.

  2. Navigate to .minecraft folder: cd %appdata%\.minecraft

  3. Delete the saves folder from here.

  4. In cmd, type: mklink /D saves <path to saves folder> eg. If your saves folder is D:\Xyz\saves, type: mklimk /D saves D:\Xyz\saves

Now reboot to Linux. In Linux,

  1. Go to the shared drive which has saves folder.

  2. Right click on saves folder and make link.

  3. Rename the link to saves.

  4. Go to .minecraft folder in your home directory and delete the saves folder from there.

  5. Move the saves link here.

Now both operating systems will share the saved worlds.

Note: Shared drive must be NTFS for mklink to work.

Are Regular VACUUM ANALYZE Still Recommended Under 9.1?

Answer : VACUUM is only needed on updated or deleted rows in non-temporary tables. Obviously you're doing lots of INSERTs but it's not obvious from the description that you're also doing lots of UPDATEs or DELETEs. These operations can be tracked with the pg_stat_all_tables view, specifically the n_tup_upd and n_tup_del columns. Also, even more to the point, there is a n_dead_tup column that tells, per table, how much rows need to be vacuumed. (see Monitoring statistics in the doc for functions and views related to statistics gathering). A possible strategy in your case would be to suppress the scheduled VACUUM, keeping an eye on this view and checking on which tables the n_dead_tup is going up significantly. Then apply the aggressive VACUUM to these tables only. This will be a win if there are large tables whose rows never get deleted nor updated and the aggressive VACUUM is really necessary only on smaller tables. But keep running the ANALYZE for the optimiz

Can Feynman Diagrams Be Used To Represent Any Perturbation Theory?

Answer : Diagram machinery works also for perturbation theory in classical statistical mechanics and classical field theories. Generally, various kinds of diagrams constitute a pictorial way of talking about tensor products and their contractions while hiding the multi-linear algebra from the layman. In the simplest case, vertices (or blobs) represent vectors, matrices, tensors; vertices have ingoing and/or outgoing ports; ingoing ports denote (contravariant) ro indices; outgoing ports denote (covariant) co indices; directed arcs between blobs give a pair of equal indices summed over; different base spaces ⇔ \Leftrightarrow ⇔ different arc types; symmetric tensors ⇔ \Leftrightarrow ⇔ undirected diagrams; no labels are needed for internal lines. In many cases, the directed arcs are decorated (as thin, thick, broken,wavy, curly lines), each decoration indicating the presence of a so-called propagator, a function of its label to use as a weight in the sum, which may beco
