Danger on Wikipedia Franck Rivoire, known by his stage name Danger, is a French electronic musician. Rivoire's musical history started an early age, when his parents introduced him to the piano and saxophone.[1] Growing up, he played in both jazz and punk bands,[1] and other interests included skateboarding and metal music.[2] Rivoire got his first synthesizer after seeing a friend use one[2] and convincing his parents to buy one for him, too.[1] His interest in electronic music was pursued further when he began using Amiga and Atari computers to make chiptunes, a hobby that he still practices.[1] Before he started using the name "Danger", Rivoire trained to be a graphic designer[2] and worked as one professionally.[3] When not working, he practiced digital music production.[2] His track "11h30" was created during this time and contains his own vocals, but no lyrics;[2] the vocals instead consist of mixed-up syllables.[4]
Beer Info - Brews News Service plus Craft Beer and Homebrew Library Xbox 360 MKV Playback Guide (GOTSent) | Articles MKV is an increasingly popular video format, mainly because of its open source roots, and it being increasingly used for H.264 encoding. The problem is that many standalone devices simply do not support the MKV format, often preferring the MP4 container format for use with H.264/MPEG-4 AVC encoding. This guide shows you how to play MKV files on the Xbox 360, which supports H.264/MPEG-4 AVC, but does not support the MKV container. While the instructions in this guide can also be used to get MKV files to play on the PS3, we've left that to a different guide using different software that's more suited to the task. And as with most guides on Digital Digest, we will only use freeware unless there's no alternative. This guide uses freeware software titles only, namely GOTSent. Software you'll need: Hardware you'll need: Xbox 360 with Spring 2007 Dashboard update or newer - may require installation of codec pack from Xbox Live (Silver account is enough) MKV is just a container format.
John Conway's Game of Life The Game The Game of Life is not your typical computer game. It is a 'cellular automaton', and was invented by Cambridge mathematician John Conway. This game became widely known when it was mentioned in an article published by Scientific American in 1970. It consists of a collection of cells which, based on a few mathematical rules, can live, die or multiply. Depending on the initial conditions, the cells form various patterns throughout the course of the game. playgameoflife.com New developments of this page will continue on playgameoflife.com. playgameoflife.com The Simulation Figure from the XKCD RIP John Conway comic. The Rules For a space that is 'populated': Each cell with one or no neighbors dies, as if by solitude. Each cell with four or more neighbors dies, as if by overpopulation. Each cell with two or three neighbors survives. For a space that is 'empty' or 'unpopulated' Each cell with three neighbors becomes populated.

How to play AVI files on Xbox 360 This article discusses how you can get the multimedia content in your AVI files to play on an Xbox 360 console. It will provide several different methods based on the multimedia support of the Xbox 360 console and may be updated regularly with Xbox 360 updates. Introduction & Requirements What are AVI files? Files that have a .AVI extension are multimedia container files that can store video and audio stream data. When playing an AVI file, you need a video player that can "split" the multimedia container (the AVI itself) and then codecs that can decode the video and audio data inside the files (the word codec is an abbreviation of Coder / Decoder). Does the Xbox 360 support AVI files? As we saw in the previous paragraph, the AVI itself is a multimedia container which stores video and audio content that was created by a codec and must also be decoded (played) with a codec. So what's in my AVI file anyway? AviCodec Results
