A computer mod where you manufacture computer parts from scratch, eventually automatically.

What's new
- New Recycler: feed it an old computer part or a spare chip and it shreds it back into silicon, copper wire, gold wire and iron sheets, each into its own slot. Craft it from a grindstone and a machine frame.
- You get back far less than went in, and never the chips, so it's for clearing out last generation's computers rather than skipping the fab. Newer parts give more, and a contract usually still pays better.
- Put a comparator next to a Computer Case or Server Rack and it reads the temperature: 0 when cold, 12 when the computer starts slowing down, 15 at shutdown.
- Give a case or rack a redstone signal and it pauses: BitOS says PAUSED BY REDSTONE, it stops mining and cools off. Good for a thermostat, or an inverted daylight sensor so you only mine while the solar panels are up.
- The handbook has a new Recycling chapter, and the Heat chapter explains the redstone and comparator setups.
