The skeleton breaks the armor stand, which releases a pressure plate.
I use the resulting signal as a fairly simple redstone clock.
With an attached cobblestone farm, auto-smelter, fuel farm for the auto-smelters, and a witch farm for sticks, it's a 100% sustainable redstone clock!
This post is a joke if that isn't clear.

The lower-middle class is not the enemy here. (I should also mention they were forced to sell their silver several years ago to cover bills)
Perhaps globally my parents are wealthy, but no individual lives globally, they must buy food, groceries, goods, and housing in their area. I feel like you're putting up a false dichotomy of Rich or Poor. Just because someone is not destitute and starving does not mean they are a capitalist exploiter bent on aquiring a dragons horde of wealth at all costs. I just feel like you're losing a ton of nuance here, both globally and locally.

My parents (maybe third quartile of wealth in the US) had bought a few thousands worth of silver coins instead of investing it into a retirement fund.
In a time when it's not crazy to anticipate unilateral tariffs on the developing regions you mentioned, nor is it unreasonable to assume actively hostile actions against renewable energy projects (and/or steep tariffs against the input products for those projects), it's not unreasonable for small- time investors to see precious metals as a safer place to park the little money they have to save for personal retirement. While the huge institutional investors are definitely mucking up the market, it's definitely not fair to blame "all" investors in precious metals who are simply responding to the realities if the current political situation. -

https://imgur.com/a/0kPxOZG
The orange section could be underground/water to avoid interfering with builds in the area.
Potential stations: Mendanbar's Castle, Woosley's (sp?) mushroom island/sky islands, ApexCaster's Coral Oasis.Is this a transparent attempt to extend a high speed line to my future build without having to build it myself? Absolutely.

If you can't agree to that, it's gonna be hard to find any job in this industry! Kids these days have no respect for business!!
Is the 'Premium AFK' a subscription, or a one- time payment?
And that keep farm would have to be truly massive to keep up with a 64 furnace array! I know my planned build of a one chunk 16 furnace array + kelp farm required a huge number to maintain continuous smelting.
Also, maybe we could work together on some furnace stuff so as to reduce effort duplication. I'm out of town for the next week, so it might all be done by then. The exterior look is my primary desire: 16x16x16 cube to look like a furnace block, with some redstone to make the fire light up when the furnace is on. Let me know if you're interested in collaboration, otherwise, I might just build my design out by comm. storage for increased convenience.
