10/3/2023 0 Comments Virtual museum tours![]() Such a decent goal can be easily reached by following three simple steps. The proper development of a virtual museum can become a new chapter of a museum’s life, attracting new visitors and making them more educated. For example, users can complete historical/cultural quests and get achievements for passing tests after a piece of learned material. Visitors can play around with exhibits in a modern way, making eLearning fun and effective. In a virtual museum, you can implement a gamification solution that significantly boosts the experience of visiting and interacting with your virtual museum. Beyond question, the gamification-based approach has become a game-changer.Ī virtual museum can give the deserved interest level to a particular culture, historic timespan, artifact, etc. It mainly refers to younger generations that can view museums as a boring activity from the days of yore. How attracted are people to history and art? Not as much as they might be. So let’s have a look at what distinguishes these two types from each other. Of course, the primary purpose of all museums is education, but the point is that information can be delivered in different ways. In contrast, virtual tours allow us to interact with exhibits differently, like rotating them or making them alive.ĭepending on the purpose and type of audience, virtual museums are divided into educational and gamification-based. A physical museum strictly forbids visitors to interact with historical relics and artifacts as well as pieces of art due to their fragility and tenderness. Fortunately, digitalizing artifacts allows keeping them in safe places but showing everything in virtual reality. That’s why specialists keep some of them separate from others exhibited in museums. ![]() Museums often have challenges showing up some ancient relics as they usually require specific conditions to keep the integrity and original shape. These are great things to do, but now they can add cultural entertainment that broadens their minds! People can enjoy the Louver or a wide range of other museums at home, and this is truly awesome. Most people are used to spending their free time watching movies, playing games, or being busy with their hobbies. But an average person can afford virtual museum tours through smartphones and inexpensive VR glasses like Google Cardboard. There are numerous reasons why many kids and adults avoid visiting traditional museums, like expensive tickets and long-distance trips. That’s why virtual tours are much safer for both exhibits and visitors.Īffordable education. In addition, the worldwide pandemic made it impossible to visit museums, and this may happen again. Besides fire, earthquake, or other force majeure situations capable of destroying exhibits, people can also get hurt. People don’t have to get to the exhibit from all over the world, so it allows anyone to visit a museum, extending its visitor base. This format doesn’t have any physical place and is open at any time, regardless of timezone. Thus, anyone can visit such a museum anytime. ![]() Since online/virtual exhibits work as software or animated video, they don’t require employees and have no business time limitations. Virtual museums can work 24/7, 365 days a year. So what’s the purpose of a virtual museum, and why do many offline museums go online? We can answer these questions with a comprehensive list of the benefits discussed down below. But thousands of museums worldwide have already digitized their artifacts and created interactive virtual spaces for online visitors. Unfortunately, many conservators prefer traditional tours to the VR museum experience. A visitor can take a virtual tour using any device like a smartphone or laptop, but the most interactive and immersive experience is through VR/AR technologies.

10/3/2023 0 Comments Pale moon browser for mac![]() ![]() ![]() Make sure to get the most out of your browser! On top of that, Disk Warrior is now $125.Pale Moon is an Open Source, Goanna-based web browser focused on efficiency and customization. Nowadays the Mac OS is quite a bit more stable and reliable, Disk Utility/First Aid usually works well when needed, and a utility such as Disk Warrior is rarely necessary for your average user. That was impressive, but I haven't seen a post like that on a Mac discussion list in years now. Parenthetically, I remember that on most large Macintosh discussion lists, back years ago, about once or twice a month there used to be a message from some user whose hard drive had apparently "died" and that DW almost miraculously resurrected it. The upshot of it was that back in the days of the Classic Mac OS, Apple's included Disk First Aid wasn't particularly effective, and that disk problems came up often enough that Disk Warrior (or similar, but DW was the most popular), was both a godsend and almost a necessity. We had an interesting discussion on TidBITs Talk a while back, with the subject "Looking For Disk Warrior Justification." Maybe it is available in the list's archive. Here's a third party video i found on youtube talking about Arctic Fox. Hope that helps clear up the confusion one might have. Toss it on an Intel machine and it's a whole new browser. As for TenFourFox, yes on an old PowerPC G3/G4 it is slow. However most popular ones are supported, or are forked.įourth. Most will, some need minor modifications, and some just wont work at all. Pale Moon & Arctic Fox are not firefox rebrands, but forked and diverged enough to not be 100% FF compatible as their code moves further and further away from mozilla/chrome code. Using a mobile UA to lighten the load, and using a native video player to handle streaming video is less cpu intensive than html5 on old hardware. ![]() Many people are using old G3/G4 machines that just don't have the horsepower to handle such things. The only reason that's mentioned on github/macrumors is because we also have powerpc linux builds. Arctic Fox can easily play youtube natively, handle most all heavy JS sites, and use many extensions. The latest PM28 dropped 10.6 support, but still supports 10.7+. Only a few small kinks left to work out that don't impact usability or browsing experience however. We are working towards "official branding". However they should be considered beta, much like firefox nightly builds. Pale Moon has had Mac builds for 3-4 years now. You can set Firefox to be your default Web browser within Firefox:įirefox menu -> Preferences -> General -> Always Check That Firefox Is Your Default Browserįirst. It is fairly modern, it supports HTML 5, and it is completely stable under OS X 10.6:įirefox (48.0.2) (free) Directory Listing: /pub/firefox/releases/48.0.2/ This version of Firefox is a close to ideal compromise. The perfect solution would be to find an older version of a modern third party browser that isn't so new that it doesn't support OS X 10.6, but which is new enough that it supports all or most modern Web technologies.įortunately, Firefox has an archive of all past versions for download! Unfortunately Safari in Snow Leopard has become severely dated and it is now unstable and incompatible with some Web sites.Īlso unfortunately, many modern third party Web browsers aren't compatible with OS X 10.6. It can't be upgraded without upgrading the entire OS. Safari in OS X 10.6 is tied to that version of OS X. I still have an old iMac in my office running OS X 10.6.8 so that I can still use some legacy software. ![]() 10/3/2023 0 Comments Cannon pixam software![]() ![]() As we've seen, this somewhat unique offshoot of the tech support scam can end up being just as costly. The moment you're asked to call somebody, or grant them remote access to your device, close the site you're on and ensure you're where you want to be. ![]() As long as you're on, you can feel reassured you are very likely not being scammed. Never download a driver from anywhere other than the official Canon site. Pretty much everything after September is a Canon printer scam-from bogus tech support and remote mobile/desktop connections to people being signed up to cryptocurrency and references to ransomware. I called them and they refused to refund my money, $362.16 tonight. After I fell for this, I did my research and found out that they are a scam. You have to pay for their services and then they make you believe that you need protection for all of your devices that can connect to the internet. ![]() They make you believe that you have computer infections that prohibit you from connecting to your printer. Global Assistance has a scam that leads you to their fake canon website. In September, there's a blend of printer driver and fake infection tactics: They took remote control of my computer, got personal information and credit card numbers and charged $199 unsuccessfully. Scammers inserted themselves into a help session for a Canon printer and posed as certified Canon technicians. At the start of March, we see our first Canon printer tale of woe and it's our old friend the customer support conversation slide. Some are bogus orders, or missed deliveries. What's interesting is that most of the oldest scams are all about Canon cameras. They're tagged as a mixture of phishing, tech support, and fake invoices. I turned up 17 reports of Canon themed scams from the beginning of 2021 to the present day across Canada and the US. It turns out that you actually can (to a degree). I decided to check out the BBB scam trackerand see if I could observe the evolution of the Canon scam. The Gizmodo article contains numerous examples of this type of scam. Please contact Canon Customer Support For Assistance! Click on below button to connect live chat experts Tracing a problem Printer driver installation has been failed due to fatal error "C0000022" preventing product driver installation. Others are a bit more professional looking, and ask you to download a driver first. What's left is sites which look a bit like blogs and loop visitors round, with no download in site. In fairness, a few of those listed are already offline or not responding to requests, so they may have been shut down since the report went live. The sites are referred to as fairly sophisticated. All tried and tested Windows-centric tech support scam tactics. Direct requests for money in exchange for supposed drivers, or remote access requests quickly follow.Īccording to Gizmodo, there are also "support packages" available to buy over the phone which (of course) fail to materialise. We're very quickly in the realm of tech support scams. However, when someone attempts to download the driver, the download fails and the site displays a message with a phone number you can call for assistance. The sites vary in terms of style or general setup, but all focus on having you download Canon drivers. Gizmodo discovered the sites after issuing a Freedom of Infomation request to the Federal Trades Commission (FTC) in relation to Canon-specific complaints. Gizmodo reportsthat numerous dodgy sites are riding on the coat-tails of the Canon printer brand, extracting cash however they can. Have you ever stopped to consider what's lurking out there in relation to your humble printer? Bogus Canon sites causing headaches Streaming and other internet based viewing options have their own support related perilsto contend with. Some of the above have many issues already with bogus search engine results and tech support scams. Activating a streaming service which refuses to play ball.

In Microsoft Windows, two vaguely named Windows services implement SMB. On NetBT, the server component uses three TCP or UDP ports: 137 (NETBIOS Name Service), 138 (NETBIOS Datagram Service), and 139 (NETBIOS Session Service). SMB originally operated on NetBIOS over IEEE 802.2 - NetBIOS Frames or NBF - and over IPX/SPX, and later on NetBIOS over TCP/IP (NetBT), but Microsoft has since deprecated these protocols. The SMB server component uses TCP port 445. ![]() This combination allows file sharing over complex, interconnected networks, including the public Internet. SMB relies on the TCP and IP protocols for transport. SMB serves as the basis for Microsoft's Distributed File System implementation. Server Message Block (SMB) enables file sharing, printer sharing, network browsing, and inter-process communication (through named pipes) over a computer network. Microsoft has since discontinued use of the CIFS moniker but continues developing SMB and making subsequent specifications publicly available. Microsoft's proposal, however, remained an Internet Draft and never achieved standard status. It supports symbolic links, hard links, and larger file size, but none of the features of SMB 2.0 and later. CIFS was compatible with even the earliest incarnation of SMB, including LAN Manager's. In 1996, Microsoft published a version of SMB 1.0 with minor modifications under the Common Internet File System ( CIFS / s ɪ f s/) moniker. It uses NTLM or Kerberos protocols for user authentication. ![]() SMB implementation consists of two vaguely named Windows services: "Server" (ID: LanmanServer) and "Workstation" (ID: LanmanWorkstation). SMB over QUIC was introduced in Windows Server 2022. Later, Microsoft implemented SMB in Windows NT 3.1 and has been updating it ever since, adapting it to work with newer underlying transports: TCP/IP and NetBT. In 1987, Microsoft and 3Com implemented SMB in LAN Manager for OS/2, at which time SMB used the NetBIOS service atop the NetBIOS Frames protocol as its underlying transport.
