Off Topic / Does anyone here own an LG G2?
« on: December 01, 2013, 06:42:53 AM »
I was looking at getting a new phone and i've been giving this one some serious thought. Unfortunately I don't know anyone who owns it so I can't get their opinion on it before purchasing one for myself. I've read a lot of reviews but i'd just like to hear from someone who actually owns it, so if any of you guys could help that'd be great :)

Off Topic / It's my Birthday (And the day I created this account)
« on: November 01, 2013, 09:41:52 AM »
Having survived another year I am now 16! My account is now 5!

I'm hoping to receive a new Headset and maybe a Fish tank. So anyway, wish us happy birthday or something, I don't know.

Suggestions & Requests / Horizontal Windows?
« on: March 17, 2013, 04:54:35 PM »
Do we have any extra window bricks that are completely horizontal?

If so, can someone provide me with a link?

If not, can someone consider making these?

So basically I'm asking if there's any windows - that look like the default window - that go ___ along the ground instead of standing up |

I really do hope one of you knows what I mean.

Help / Shaders having an odd effect on chrome bricks.
« on: February 08, 2013, 01:44:56 AM »

I'm using a GTX670, drivers are fully updated.
I'm using Tape's colour set in the picture but it still happens with default.

This only happens when I look at the brick from a certain place. It also changes in severity, sometimes it will be barely noticeable but at others it will be like this, any ideas anyone?

Off Topic / King Richard III's remains found.
« on: February 04, 2013, 05:00:08 AM »
"beyond reasonable doubt the individual exhumed at Grey Friars on September 12th is indeed Richard III, the last Plantagenet king of England"

King Richard III was the king of England for 2 years until he died at the battle of Bosworth, which ended the War Of The Roses. Shakespeare wrote a tragedy about him and he's well known for apparently murdering two princes in the Tower of London, so that he could become king.

Anyway, last September remains of a skeleton where found during an excavation of an old monastery/church site under a car-park in Leicester. It was believed to be King Richard, scientists studied the bones and also matched the DNA from the skeleton to that of one of Richards descendants to confirm (beyond reasonable doubt) that it is him!

The remains are over 500 years old.
You can read more about it;

And here

I just found this pretty interesting, anyway, discuss!

Off Topic / Collusion, see who is tracking you.
« on: December 06, 2012, 12:17:13 AM »
''Collusion is an experimental add-on for Firefox and allows you to see all the third parties that are tracking your movements across the Web. It will show, in real time, how that data creates a spider-web of interaction between companies and other trackers.''

I'm not sure how many of you guys will have seen this before, or how old it is, but I'll post it anyway.

As i was happily browsing the internet i came across this little app for Firefox - I think it has a Chrome version - and thought it was seriously cool, it shows what sites are tracking you via cookies or are being sent data about you from a certain site you've visited. Check it out! it's free!

Blue are sites you have visited
Grey/white are sites you haven't visited
                                                                       
Had a quick browse round the forums and this was the result

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f_f5wNw-2c0 - TED talk that features it
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/collusion-for-chrome/ganlifbpkcplnldliibcbegplfmcfigp - Found a link for a Chrome version

Gallery / Petrol Station
« on: November 09, 2012, 11:56:13 PM »
I've had this sitting in my saves for a bit now, so i loaded it earlier, updated it with new bricks, turned on shaders, took some pictures and here it is, a petrol station in a desert!


View of the petrol station from some cacti!


Interior, terrible i know.


Birds eye view (kind of anyway) think i forgot to resize this one, but it just gives you a view of it's size.


The station at night, sun has just set, shows off the lights!


Another shot of it at night.


Feel free to rate out of ten, constructive criticism appreciated.

Off Topic / Morons at school
« on: November 06, 2012, 06:33:40 AM »
Holy stuff it's bad.
Like literally every lesson at my school gets hijacked by the same bunch of idiots who think it's cool to piss around all the time. They pick up desks and chairs and throw them around the room, they throw stuff at people and they just don't stop loving talking! Like all the god damn time they're yelling stuff at each other, I've been at this school for 2 months now and I've already had SIX lessons where the teacher has just gave up and left, seriously.
It's like Australians don't give a stuff about learning anything, they just don't care, and it's really pissing me off.

Anyway, discuss idiots/morons at school

Gallery / Two Houses, made by Brad and Fawkes
« on: February 12, 2012, 04:47:54 PM »
So Brad hosted a 'Build a house' server and a couple of people showed up, but nobody finished a house, except me and Brad, so i felt like posting them.

Brad's house is the red and white one:



And mine is the Blue, Black and White one:


No interiors at the moment but we're working on them.
If anyone wants to come to the server when it's up it'll be called 'Brad's House Build'.
Feel free to rate out of 10, thankyou.

Off Topic / Terry's Chocolate Orange, Help me break it.
« on: January 05, 2012, 03:04:51 PM »
So my mum came home and gave me a terry's chocolate orange, i smacked it against my table as it said on the packet 'Whack and unwrap' and opened it expecting all the segments to fall apart evenly, AND THEY DIDNT.

Now i am mad that something as simple as a TERRY'S CHOCOLATE ORANGE cant be broken by my desk, so members of the forums, think of the most imaginative (and possible) way of me breaking this chocolate orange and i shall do it :)

Off Topic / Why is my computer doing this?
« on: December 20, 2011, 08:28:32 AM »
There i was, happily on minecraft, when i noticed that the minecraft window was mirroring to the right of itself. (i have tried to take pictures of it to show you guys but i cant get one where the 'mirroring' actually stands out)
After noticing that i realised that all the windows open on my PC where doing it, faintly but definitely doing it.
Anyone know whats happening or how to fix it? if you do I'd appreciate some help, thanks!


EDIT: can you guys see the mirroring on that image? it becomes viewable if you kinda stand up and look down on it

Off Topic / I'm having a operation :c
« on: March 22, 2011, 02:31:14 PM »
So, i've been having problems with my knees for a while so i decided to go to the doctors, the doctors sent me to hospital for a X-ray. Turns out i have a big lump of bone on both my knees :o
It's so big on one knee you can see a big round lump pushing up the skin on my leg :c
So i'm having a operation on both of them. I have to be put to sleep so im a bit nervous as i've never had a operation before.
Discuss operations you've had and try and make me feel better about it. C:
