Why can't a whole OS just actually be Minecraft? The literacy rate for Minecraft's UI is already extremely high.

  Codeblocks, but each block is a file or a function or an object.

  Minecraft also teaches the next generation to think in the Metric system. “How big is one meter?” “It’s one Minecraft block wide.” “Oh, that’s easy to remember.”

  Same, not sure I understand lol It looks _very cool_ but not sure what I'm actually looking at. Looks like a VR thing but the user isn't using a HMD...

I guess I don't understand what's happening here. I get the meme, minecraft in minecraft. But is it just piping through another minecraft process to a flat object in the world? I find displays and processors built from redstone to be much more interesting. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ti75U2Y913E https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ti75U2Y913E Still cool either way though!

  More interestingly, a while back I found a Minecraft mod that lets you run virtual machines in Minecraft by connecting to VirtualBox, IIRC.
