Resurrect Your Old PC
Resurrect your old PCs Resurrect your old PC Nostalgic for your old beige boxes? Don’t let them gather dust! Proprietary OSes force users to upgrade hardware much sooner than necessary: Neil Bothwick highlights some great ways to make your pensioned-off PCs earn their keep. ardware performance is constantly improving, and it is only natural to want the best, so we upgrade our H system from time to time and leave the old ones behind, considering them obsolete. But you don’t usually need the latest and greatest, it was only a few years ago that people were running perfectly usable systems on 500MHz CPUs and drooling over the prospect that a 1GHz CPU might actually be available quite soon. I can imagine someone writing a similar article, ten years from now, about what to do with that slow, old 4GHz eight-core system that is now gathering dust. That’s what we aim to do here, show you how you can put that old hardware to good use instead of consigning it to the scrapheap. So what are we talking about when we say older computers? The sort of spec that was popular around the turn of the century. OK, while that may be true, it does make it seem like we are talking about really old hardware. A typical entry-level machine from six or seven years ago would have had something like an 800MHz processor, Pentium 3 or similar, 128MB of RAM and a 20- 30GB hard disk. The test rig used for testing most of the software we will discuss is actually slightly lower spec, it has a 700MHz Celeron processor, because that’s what I found in the pile of computer gear I never throw away in my loft, right next to my faithful old – but non-functioning – Amiga 4000.

Working with Digital Video
Working with digital video By admin Published: 10/04/2007 - 08:35 Peter Westenberg , October 2007 Working with digital video is part of many artistic disciplines. Besides single screen narratives, video productions can range from animation, multiple screen installation to interactive work. Still, many aspects of digital video can be traced back to the history of film. The interface of a timeline editing software such as Cinelerra [1] shows a multitrack timeline, a viewing monitor, a bin for clips; echoing the setup of a flatbed table for editing celluloid. A dual head set up Cinelerra work station The physical materiality of film and video are fundamentaly different: celluloid versus pixels, chemicals versus algorhytms, but the relationship between film and video has mutually matured. As outlined by Matt Hanson [1b] , video expands cinematographic traditions in new directions, filmmakers can benefit from digitisation by reclaiming the central position of creativity in the film process, as pointed out by Samira Makhmalbaf. [1c] 1 / 28 An 'Old Delft Cinemonta' 16mm editing table in use at the Filmwerkplaats in Rotterdam Digital video also roots in artistic practices of the sixties and seventies. [1a] Artists started using video to capture temporary performances (Joan Jonas [2] , Vito Acconci [3] ), they integrated video monitors in installations (Nam June Paik [4] ), experimented with filters and mixing in video paintings (Peter Campus [5] ). Compared to film cameras, video cameras had a strong feature: it became possible connect a monitor and view directly what the camera recorded. Today, artists can use softwares such as Lives [5] , Jahshaka [6] , Zone Minder [7] or Pure Data [8] and Linux distributions aimed at audio and visual creation such as Dyne:bolic [9] Apodio [10] and Ubuntu Studio [11] to further explore the possibilities of real time video, multiple camera input and live interaction.

Schon Mal Dran Gedacht,Linux Auszuprobieren? Von G. Schmidt
Schon mal dran gedacht, Linux auszuprobieren? Eine Einführung in das Betriebssystem Linux und seine Distributionen von Günther Schmidt-Falck Das Magazin AUSWEGE wird nun schon seit 2010 mit Hilfe des Computer-Betriebs- system Linux erstellt: Texte layouten, Grafiken und Fotos bearbeiten, Webseiten ge- stalten, Audio schneiden - alles mit freier, unabhängiger Software einer weltweiten Entwicklergemeinde. Aufgrund der guten eigenen Erfahrungen möchte der folgende Aufsatz ins Betriebssystem Linux einführen - mit einem Schwerpunkt auf der Distri- bution LinuxMint. Was ist Linux? „... ein hochstabiles, besonders schnelles und vor allem funktionsfähiges Betriebssystem, das dem Unix-System ähnelt, … . Eine Gemeinschaft Tausender programmierte es und verteilt es nun unter der GNU General Public Li- cense. Somit ist es frei zugänglich für jeden und kos- tenlos! Mehrere Millionen Leute, viele Organisatio- nen und besonders Firmen nutzen es weltweit. Die meisten nutzen es aus folgenden Gründen: • besonders schnell, stabil und leistungs- stark • gratis Support aus vielen Internet- Newsgruppen Tux, der Pinguin, ist das Linux-Maskottchen • übersichtliche Mailing-Listen • massenweise www-Seiten • direkter Mailkontakt mit dem Programmierer sind möglich • Bildung von Gruppen • kommerzieller Support“1 Linux ist heute weit verbreitet im Serverbereich: „Im Oktober 2012 wurden mindes- tens 32% aller Webseiten auf einem Linux-Server gehostet. Da nicht alle Linux-Ser- ver sich auch als solche zu erkennen geben, könnte der tatsächliche Anteil um bis zu 24% höher liegen. Damit wäre ein tatsächlicher Marktanteil von bis zu 55% nicht 1 http://www.linuxnetworx.com/linux-richtig-nutzen magazin-auswege.de – 2.11.2015 Schon mal dran gedacht, Linux auszuprobieren? 1 auszuschliessen. (…) Linux gilt innerhalb von Netzwerken als ausgesprochen sicher und an die jeweiligen Gegebenheiten anpassbar.

Antivirus Software Before It Can Detect Them
Computer virus A computer virus is a computer program that can copy itself and infect a computer without the permission or knowledge of the owner. The term "virus" is also commonly but erroneously used to refer to other types of malware, adware, and spyware programs that do not have the reproductive ability. A true virus can only spread from one computer to another (in some form of executable code) when its host is taken to the target computer; for instance because a user sent it over a network or the Internet, or carried it on a removable medium such as a floppy disk, CD, DVD, or USB drive. Viruses can increase their chances of spreading to other computers by infecting files on a network file system or a file system that is accessed by another computer.[1][2] The term "computer virus" is sometimes used as a catch-all phrase to include all types of malware. Malware includes computer viruses, worms, trojan horses, most rootkits, spyware, dishonest adware, crimeware, and other malicious and unwanted software), including true viruses. Viruses are sometimes confused with computer worms and Trojan horses, which are technically different. A worm can exploit security vulnerabilities to spread itself to other computers without needing to be transferred as part of a host, and a Trojan horse is a program that appears harmless but has a hidden agenda. Worms and Trojans, like viruses, may cause harm to either a computer system's hosted data, functional performance, or networking throughput, when they are executed. Some viruses and other malware have symptoms noticeable to the computer user, but many are surreptitious.
