Free creation of life software for linux

Camera Life (FDCL) is a system for cataloging your photo collection. Camera Life project gives users the ability to search your archive by albums that you set up, or by directory structure.

Main features:
Self Updating
- When you add photos to the photo directory you specified when installing, FDCL will cache, thumnail and make public all such photos (Administration: File Manager). You can allow certain user classes to maintain your site by editing the photo descriptions and delete photos that suck.
Topic view and Folder View
- On the main page, users are presented with the option of viewing photos by topic or folder. In topic view, albums (collections of like photos) are categorized by topic (ex: People, Things, My Vacataions).
- Folder view is hierrical and based on the directory structure of the photos. When viewing a photo, users are given the option to view others photos in the same topic or folder.
Image deletion
- When viewing a photo, you have the option to delete it. When a user deletes an image, FDCL actually flags it as non-public. An admin has to actually erase it (Administration: File Manager). And when you erase it, FDCL just moves it to the erased folder. FDCL will never rm your photos. With this in mind, it is sensible to allow users to delete offensive images and admins to erase them.
Themes
- You can easily change the look of the entire site by choosing a different theme (Administration: Customize: Themes). Official themes can be downlaoded from http://fdcl.sourceforge.net other themes are available at your local supermarket (or not).
Users
- Users can anonyously sign up an account. The admins choose which accounts to give privileges to. All authentication is done by random cookies saved in the DB and passwords are salted and hashed.
Logging
- Some actions are logged to the logs table. This is done via the db_log function. You can view the logs (Administration: Log Viewer) and see the audit trail to modifications to the ssytem. You can then rollback specific action (like renaming a photo) by simply choosing the previous state to go back to.
Enhancements:
- This version adds support for Gallery Remote API, microformats, sitemaps, OpenSearch, and RSS feeds, and supports iPhoto photocasting.
- There are now photo keywords with a del.icio.us-like keyword editor.
- Checkpoints allow you to review and approve changes to the site.
- Your users can now order prints online.
- There are also big changes under the hood and some security enhancements.

Second Life Live CD is a Live CD based on Knoppix, for nvidia graphics cards only.

Instructions for use on the CD /index.html

Golly project is an open source, cross-platform Game of Life simulator currently under development by Andrew Trevorrow and Tomas Rokicki.
Our goal is to write a world-class Life simulator, solicit ideas and help from the planets best Life hackers, and share some of our excitement.
Main features:
- Unbounded universe (limited only by memory).
- Fast, memory-efficient conventional algorithm.
- Super fast hashing algorithm for highly regular patterns.
- Responsive even while generating or garbage collecting.
- Reads RLE, Life 1.05/1.06, and macrocell formats.
- Can paste in patterns from the clipboard.
- Auto fit option keeps patterns sized to the window.
- Full screen option (no menu/status/tool/scroll bars).
- Built-in HTML help system (thanks to wxWidgets).
Enhancements:
- The X11 version of Golly has a number of bugs and limitations, so use the GTK version if you can (it requires GTK+ 2.x).
- If you want to build Golly from the source distribution then to avoid various bugs use wxGTK 2.7 or later.

Its a simple idea: implement Conways Game of Life using boolean logic operations (and, or, not, xor); do so by blits, thus running a Life game in every bitplane in parallel.

Currently 2 implementations are available: a proof-of-concept (with a life-covered 3d cube!) one in Python (with Numeric/pygame) and a useful one in C (X-Windows screensaver, potentially accelerated).

Game::Life - Plays Conways Game of Life.

SYNOPSIS

use Game::Life;
my $game = new Game::Life( 20 );
my $starting = [
[ 1, 1, 1 ],
[ 1, 0, 0 ],
[ 0, 1, 0 ]
];

$game->place_points( 10, 10, $starting );
for (1..20) {
my $grid = $game->get_grid();
foreach ( @$grid ) {
print map { $_ ? X : . } @$_;
print "n";
}
print "nn";
$game->process();
}

Conways Game of Life is a basic example of finding living patterns in rather basic rulesets (see NOTES). The Game of Life takes place on a 2-D rectangular grid, with each grid point being either alive or dead. If a living grid point has 2 or 3 neighbors within the surrounding 8 points, the point will remain alive in the next generation; any fewer or more will kill it. A dead grid point will become alive if there are exactly 3 living neighbors to it. With these simple rules, fascinating structures such as gliders that move across the grid, glider guns that generate these gliders, XOR gates, and others have been found.

This module simply provides a way to simulate the Game of Life in Perl.

In terms of coordinate systems as used in place_points, toggle_point and other functions, the first coodinate is the vertical direction, 0 being the top of the board, and the second is the horizontal direaction, 0 being the left side of the board. Thus, toggling the point of (3,2) will switch the state of the point in the 4th row and 3rd column.

The edges of the board are currently set as "flat"; cells on the edge do not have any neighbors, and thus will fall off the board. Future versions may allow for warp edges (if a cell moves off the left side it reappears on the right side).

The Life of a Geek is very silly console game in which you (a geek) must keep a computer running until you graduate college.
Surf around on the Internet, battling hackers to gain money and better security for your box. Drink lots of caffeine to keep yourself awake, since if you go to sleep, you risk an attack on your computer.
The Life of a Geek is a simple console game.
Save up money to take a month-long college course and improve your education, but remember that paying attention to schoolwork also leaves your computer open to attack.
Find a quick job for a month at places like fast-food restaurants and grocery stores, but remember again that time away from your computer leaves it open to attack. Viruses may also appear on your computer, weakening your computers health points regularly until cleaned.
Enhancements:
- Improved randomness, a fix for a bug where more energy drinks could be bought than the available money allowed, and support for compiling using Visual C++.
