"Beyond Black Mesa" - Half Life 2 Indie Film is fantastic, jaw-dropping
Wow, just wow! Beyond Black Mesa is an independent film in the Half Life universe made over the course of two years with a budget of only around $1,200, but that doesn’t stop it from being absolutely fantastic! Clocking in at around 11 minutes, the video stars Adrian Shepard from Half Life: Opposing Force and features great action scenes, terrific music and, of course, Ravenholm. What’s not to love?

Not many, but we did find one that caught our attention, and it’s the “AVI to MP4 Converter”. Pretty straight forward name, eh? — Details after the break!
In just weeks, the Internet will be full
Back in 1977, a man by the name of Vint Cerf had an idea — he wanted to connect computers together all over the world, and quite simply he did just that by inventing a technology called “IPv4” which is an internet protocol designed to give addresses to computers, thus allowing them onto the internet. There was only enough room for 4.3 billion addresses, but the “experiment” wasn’t expected to last long — he was very wrong, and he hates himself for it. — More after the break!
