Hi, idiot. I read here that you live in a world where pistons "can be powered by a block that is not directly adjacent to it, but diagonally above or 2 blocks above. However changes to these blocks will not propagate updates to the piston. However, when the piston is caused to update by other means, it will take into account the state of these nonadjacent blocks".
Could you explain to me by what natural laws that makes even remotely sense, and how it's connected to mining, in 500 words or less?
Here's the answer: No, you can't, because you're an idiot. Your mom must have dropped you on your head, and that's why that makes sense to you.
You're not alone in being an idiot, though, because some fellow idiot has written: "This may be an 'unintentional-feature' as Jeb has acknowledged this happening before, but also acknowledging that there are many players using this to their advantage". ...or maybe that was you - I don't know.
