This is my fourth work of ds106 assignment.
All I needed to do was just pick up a picture and change the colors. I couldn't find any good one but this one. Such a wonderful picture that I took years ago!
Malware. I love my girlfriend but I can't love Malware. Everybody hates them. We learned about them in class. They are such big threats for many computer users. I've suffered from them several times, too. I wish we didn't have any Malwares on the internet and thus we didn't have to pay for any expensive anti-malware software!
By the way, there's a computer OS that repeatedly claims "I'm strong! You're safe!". Do you know? Click this link and check it out. Yes. Mac OS! Watch the video below, an advertisement by Apple, which promotes its anti-Malware feature. I'm a Windows user. Actually, majority of computer users use Windows (statistics here!). Then Mac OS is more secure than Windows OS? Isn't it wonderful if the advertisement is really true!? Hey everyone! Throw your Windows out of a window! Now Malwares. Go extinct! Wait... I wonder.... is it really true?? I found a web page written about Malwares threatening Mac OS (link here!). OMG! Malwares targeting on Mac do exist! It seems Mac is safer than windows but not totally safe. Also, here's shocking quote from another page (link here!).
The general consensus among security researchers is that there's nothing about the Mac that makes it inherently more secure than Windows -- indeed, the Mac platform has been easily penetrated in the Pwn2Own hacking contest in years past. But Windows has always been a juicier target for malicious hackers because it has much larger market share than the Mac.
Therefore, conclusion about this question might be that OS is safer when less people use it because less Malwares target at it!
OK. It seems you can't totally escape from threats of Malware. I'll keep using Windows anyway. I'm a nice, Eco-friendly guy. But everyone, don't stop throwing your Windows out of a Window. Please make it less popular and I can use my computer more safely.
Question for the final exam The first computer viruses were designed to cause damages. True or False?
The Four Icon Challenge!
I chose this one for my very first ds106 assignment.
Here is my work. What movie this is? It is actually a series of movies but... anyway can you guess??
If you could guess, you might be a fan. If you even can tell which episode it is, you might be a BIG fan.
～How I made it～
1) Draw icons.
2) Put glow effect on icons and light sa....... something.
Michael Branson Smith had a lecture, "We Are All Artists", in his blog for ds106. What he claims all about is that anyone can be artist. It doesn't matter if they're not art major students.
We are all kinds of artists.
We just don't see that way.
In his opinion, creativity is not what we get when we're born but something you can learn, and ds106 is a good place that you can be inspired by much of creativity and grow your own creativity.
I agree with his idea. I hope I can be an artist somehow ! And his lecture made me reconsider about the importance of social media. I mean, social media gives people places to show their creativity. This is really important I think. Ds106 is a perfect example. People post their work on ds106 and it's viewed by people all over the world. Same in YouTube, flickr, etc. These platforms and its convenience highly encourage people to be artists I can tell !
