What cool gadgets do you have downloaded??

Enjoy!

JHelioviewer is new visualization software that enables everyone, anywhere to explore the Sun. Developed as part of the ESA/NASA Helioviewer Project, it provides a desktop program that enables users to call up images of the Sun from the past 15 years. More than a million images from SOHO can already be accessed, and new images from NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory are being added every day.

Affecting public interest can be a funny thing. Don't let it bother you. We have long lamented the flocking of the masses to threads on things from badly faked UFO videos to crap about Indigos, Vampires, and Werewolves. Go figure. But even professional marketers are having a hard time getting a bead on the attention span of modern teens and 20's.

If you have any really good links to places like .gov or .mil, i wouldn't share them. I have seen, with my own eyes, how increased traffic can cause files and directories to disappear. Like, a link is posted on ATS, and within about 20 minutes it is dead, because of the increased traffic from ATS.

I work on a MAC platform at home and at work though I also use the PC at work since some of the network service conflicts with some operations of some application functions. In this economic times we have next to zero MAC support and security keeps me from administrating my own workstation.

Long story short (I know already too late), I find limited public free downloads for the MAC, and frankly I've had little time from homework to explore recreationally. In my interests of graphics and video, I have seen a myriad of free applications for video and animation/3D, DVD authoring and such for the PC, and some for the MAC, and some open source.

I'm always hesitant to even download video players you must install to even view TV streams and such, mostly for the HD ones. I have done a few as of yet with no conflicts. I have been streaming TV to my MAC since 2004 with EyeTV, from Elgato, and got their hybrid HD 2-3 years ago. I understand that some application suites you use can also contribute to fragmenting your hard drive, as at work I was one to discover an Adobe Suite flaw not published until it happens to you. Its important that when you update applications that you clean uninstall earlier versions is the short answer to nullify most of what will add too many conflicting directories. Some IT guy who donates some of his sporadic services to our department asked me why I need 400 some fonts! That's an issue! and why do I have so many applications?!...running at the same time! Well IT dude, it's called working, because we have to be able to communicate with your Microsoft people these days! And he has all of the new personal MAC gadgets, wireless laptops and such us hard workers consider a third backup or luxury, but not the applications we use for our livelihood. One would think he'd understand.

Well anyway if anybody has read this post this far, you can get a lot of free video, 3D animation, and graphic applications for your PCs if you want to make fake UFO videos with an easy learning curve to do functional...whatever the PC likes the best. It will all be a step down from QuickTime authoring though, so why work from the rear, start at the top, and don't be annoyed at downloading iTunes with QuickTime these days for your PC, (for cripes sake I had to load Windows Media to my precious MAC) you will be doing your computer a favor, and yourself. For 30 bucks you can enable your QuickTime to have a myriad of export/authoring capabilities, MPEG-4, H264 MAC QuickTime compression is the most efficient for streaming on the web. Otherwise you have to shell out a Grand for Sorenson Squeeze after you have a $700.00 video application, and another C-note and a half for Roxio Toast Pro to author DVDs to play anywhere outside of your computer or the web, so 30 bucks sounds real cool, if that's what you're into.

I really now sound like one of those MAC dweebs, but that isn't my point to flush the PC and market a MAC, they both now share the same brain, and why not? Why don't they share the same 'open source' applications, why is there still two? It has to be for some reason that totally escapes me outside of money grubbing, or EGO.

BTW, the person in my avatar is alive today. The side xray is a little deceiving because it is on the side of his head, but what is astonishingly lucky for this survivor is, the ordnance lodged into the side of his head failed to detonate. It was a rare 'dud'. It should have exploded. The guy is a native Afghanistan. It's a 'round the corner' ordnance and you can see it is quite sizable, it's supposed to detonate with laser distance tracking, when it reaches the corner of urban combat, thus being a sort of round the corner bullet, we use today.

at work one day. I don't work for the government or the DoD, we are a private off-the-market R&D cooperation...OK...company...OK the largest in the world you never hear of, that doesn't pay taxes because the problems that 'Market Industries' find economically draining to their shares and have to eventually abandon as a loss, those jobs come to us, to try and solve.

That is all. You know our government is strictly regulating it's R&D, and it is hard to try to solve the stupid pedestrian 'questions' posed by laymen in the real physical world, Documentation of proof is paramount or you have no cards to play, also considering the economical restraints deemed on projects and interests, even the U.S. Government aren't stupid assholes is the short answer, or maybe you yourself can submit a proposal for a government contract, with a couple of your friend I trust, at least.

Not true. You can get Vegas 4.0 for free on the web to create all sorts of DVD's. You can get FormatFactory to convert just about any video file from one type to another. On the link i provided earlier, i got a free version of a Roxio/Nero type program (they have them occasionally, you just have to watch).

There are tons of free DVD authoring software suites out there. Problem is, only a few are effective. And if you don't find what you want for free with Mac or Windows, then upgrade to Linux. On my Ubuntu box i have access to a vast library of free applications. I can do everything from simple graphics, to DVD authoring, to creating full 3d renderings. I love Ubuntu.
