Thought on Animal and Human DNA exchanging

Incase you don't have enough time to read or want as much info as possible I created a short and long version; SHORT; Can an animal's Genetic code/DNA be put into a Human? LONG; Some time ago, I found out in a class about how scientists were able to make a Human ear grow on the back of a Mouse. This got me thinking; If we can implement Human DNA (in that case, the DNA for the ears) into an animal, then surely it would be possible to do it the other way around; Implementing

Taste of Music

Todays topic, music... Music is like... like... how do I start? It is like a book, it can be good, exciting and joyful at some points but then there are the bad parts of the song. It might be fast, slow or just right. Every one has a different taste. Say someone liked Orchestra (such as me) and someone else likes rock, someone likes techy noises in music, etc... Music allows the feel of happiness, sadness, all different emotions to come to the mind. It doesn't even matter if the music is a n

A little notification for future blogs

Well, I am back with a new motto; "Aye up! Heads up!" (Meaning 'keep a look out for strange things in the near future). Anyway, I have just received a physical PC/Mac edition of Valve's highly astounding (to me) Portal 2, a physics game originally used to show the usage of portals. I had a look over YouTube to see if anyone had made any reviews of Portal 2 and I found out about Zero Punctuation at the time. I watched Zero Punctuation's review on Portal 2, expecting it to be all about Portal 2,

Leave or not?

Yep. A recent blog post by McJobless has noted my stupidity within my first posts: Linking to a website when talking about someone who had died, posting sound AVI's in random topics... *sigh* Then I came up with ideas (many of them were pretty stupid after all) which I posted up here. Later I realised there was a topic for project discussion, finding this out lead to many slaps on the forehead. Now I am thinking... Should I leave or not? It is my choice (until I get banned from RRU) to do so o

RRU's 6th Anniversary in a Nutshell

This is for all those people out there who didn't manage to either arrive in time or didn't have a chance to celebrate the 6th Anniversary of Rock Raiders United. So for those who want an explanation of what happened here it is in a nutshell: 1. When there was only two minutes left people counted down the minutes 2. When it came around to 3 'o clock the ShoutBox was filled with colourful balls like this: 3. The colourful balls and flashy balls began to become spammed 4. Shout Box br

LEGO Alpha Team intro except no effort went into it

Hullo,   Initially, I planned to post this as an "April Fools" video, where I joke about making an "720p version of the LEGO Alpha Team intro" except the end result is poorly drawn and so poorly edited you can literally see that half of the intro was recorded in GIMP. The only reason I'm not bothering to disguise it as an "April Fools" video is because... well   ...this video ain't fooling nobody. It's more of a parody of the intro instead of something you can trick your

Film music+Game music and a special sneak peek

Hey everyone, I have some new music, some for the TUa Project, some for my Game project and an extra special piece for an upcoming video for YouTube. But I have something important to say first; I am sorry I posted this up again, especially since it is a pain to upload the music, but I really wanted to let you know that (like I have already mentioned in a Profile Feed post) I am working on something secret by myself. Of course you might be taking this in as a stupid excuse, if so then I defian

How to excersize your creativity when you have nothing to do

Alright, let's say you are in some sort of situation or place and either feel you have nothing to do or are just bored, you can "excersize" your creativity. First of all, look for something that catches your eye. It could be furniture, architecture, etc. Now you've seen it, think of how you could recreate it in Lego Bricks, you don't really need a pile of bricks in front of you, just use your mind. It doesn't matter if you are thinking in terms of Minifig scale or real life scale, just as l

RRU is evolving...

It seems every time I go onto RRU's front page nowadays, in the topics and new topics section, I see at least one or more reading "I need help getting ___________". I'm not saying it's a bad thing to respond to these topics, but do you what this is turning RRU into?   A help desk.   A frickin' help desk, and I don't think that's what RRU really ought to be, although I'm not quite clear what RRU should be like. if you have the time (and wish to, I ain't forcing you) respond to the poll above

Ben24x7 tries out the Playstation VR, twice

So recently, a relative of mine spotted that my local GAME(TM) store was allowing people to try out the Playstation VR Headset for 10 or 30 minutes. Despite the CEX Vive tryout "fiasco" I underwent a month or two ago, I felt that now was the time to get my first taste of roomscale VR. So to pass the hour 'till my train left for home, I dished out fifteen quid and within three minutes I slipped on the sleek white goggles...   ...but I know some people don't have the time to read all of

The unnessessary blog post about how to make toast in secondary school/high school

Ever get annoyed by the fact when you arrive at school you either; "Accidentally" brought butter or forgot the ham and cheese then there is a way you can still make the next best thing (well, 'next best thing' for some people); Toast! Here is the easiest way to make toast during school time, wether its lunchtime or that you happen to be in a science classroom at time of realisation; 1. Find a science classroom (unless you already are in one), chemistry will do. 2. Locate the nearest bu

I'm being watched

My friend and I where going by our normal business (if normal meant me on the RRU Minecraft server whilst my friend begins writing down the lyrics to Harry101uk's Portal songs) when my friend started panicking. He received an email that lead to this: http://pastebin.com/2mN1MZBn Apparently my private 'conversation' on Steam was now leaked. The one thing that surprised me was that the person decided to add ' [REDACTED] ' over my name (apart from the first sentence, which was left with m

The Lego Movie; Has it lost it's magic?

This Blog post is about two of my recent thoughts on TLM. Do note that if you haven't seen TLM (which, I would be surprised if you didn't) then be careful, because THE FOLLOWING CONTAINS SPOILERS FOR TLM. So, with that noted, here are my thoughts: I think TLM has began to become a bore. People have seen it around once or twice (maybe even three times if you have any siblings wanting to watch it for the second or third time only to notice when the Movie ends that there is a skeleton wea

How to become a gold member (the other way)

1. Create an account on RRU and make a few posts, leave your account for 1 year 2. A year later return and you might find yourself a Silver Member 3. Begin creating the 590 posts you need (also remember to attend one of RRU's anniversaries) 4. When you have 5 posts left to go, just spam and bump topics 5. You'll receive a warning (possibly several) from the mods, just continue spamming 6. Become a Gold member 7. Enjoy your five seconds of glory as a Gold member 8. Get banned from

How to (momentarily) hate LEGO Worlds

1. Play LEGO Worlds on a computer not built with Gaming in mind (a Mac with VMWare Fusion will do) 2. Play and enjoy the game until June 3rd comes around 3. Realise there is a game update, ignore it 4. Go onto the game, take a couple of screenshots or explore or something 5. Try and see what the game is like with Motion Blur on 6. Restart the game 7. Encounter LARGE amounts of like (nearly One frame every Two seconds) 8. Adjust the Video and Effect settings to the lowest possible 9. Rest

I'm running a stream and I need viewer input

I know that, at this moment of time, most of the members in the US will be asleep, but could at least someone give me a suggestion for my mapping stream? You'll find the stream here; http://www.twitch.tv/fred_cop   And, yes, I'm getting desperate.

The mistakes of "Art Battle" and "RRU Tower"

For the past few weeks (well, it WAS  a few weeks when I initially wrote this. I've come back to it a year or two later to fix it up and publish it), I've been thinking about Art Battle and RRU Tower, specifically thinking about why those threads fell apart/flopped. I know both AB and RT are dead, and most members involved in either threads are barely active on this forum, but still I'd like to provide my thoughts about why both of them might've failed and what would need to be changed/fixe

How to get Rock Raiders to work on VMWare Fusion

This is a quick (and hopefully simple) guide to getting Lego Rock Raiders to work properly on VMWare Fusion; - Go onto VMWare Fusion - Install LRR, but if you have ignore this step - Click on the Windows Start - Open up "All Programs" - Look in the "Games" folder - Open "Lego Rock RaidersTM" (DO NOT OPEN THE STANDARD OR ENCHANCED VERSIONS, AS THEY WILL NOT WORK) - A "Mode selection" window will pop up - Change the Device selection from "Direct3D HAL" to "RGB Emulation" - Cli

Voice stuff for Game project

For the first time I am actually making progress on a project I post up about! Anyway, This was made into a blog just so I could put a voice clip inside... If you have been flicking through my 'Blender Stuff' gallery you may have found this...: A character for my not-so-going-to-work-out YouTube series which I apparently dumped immediately... Especially since I never (and still haven't) gotten permission from the Office Drones model creator HJMediaStudios. Also I hadn't gotten
