Programmi simili/alternativi Windows vs Gnu-Linux

Una delle difficoltà che s’incontrano nel passare da Windows a Gnu-Linux è la paura di non avere programmi a cui si è abituati o almeno equivalenti. Questa non è altro che una leggenda metropolitana, portata avanti da chi ha il monopolio assoluto e vorrebbe la morte dell’opensource. Certo su un professionista che per lavoro usa Photoshop piuttosto che Gimp, non c’è nulla da dire, ma tutti gli altri che usano Photoshop per correggere le proprie fotografie o gli occhi rossi, mi fanno soltanto ridere, e mi fanno pensare…. che se avessero dovuto comprarlo, col cazzo che lo avrebbero usato. Il software si paga, dato che c’è gente dietro che ci lavora, oppure bisognerebbe affidarsi all’opensource che di programmi ne ha tanti, non dimenticandosi che free non significa gratis, poiche anche in questo mondo vi sono programmi professionali a pagamento. Sotto alcuni esempi tratti da linuxalt.

WeatherBug-previsioni del tempo

 

Per chi è interessato a conoscere le previsioni del tempo esiste un bel programmino dal nome WeatherBug, che gira sotto

Linux, e da tantissime informazioni meteo, non solo sulle grandi città, ma anche su moltissimi paesoni e paesini. Si può

scaricare il pacchetto deb:

 

wget

oppure quello rpm:

wget

assicurarsi di avere installato:

libswt3.2-gtk-java

installiamo il pacchetto deb:

dpkg -i weatherbug-1.0-1.deb

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Oppure esiste anche la possibilità d’installare il Weather dai repository e dare il seguente comando:

weather -i liml -v

dove liml si riferisce al codice ICAO della mia zona. Per trovare gli altri codici guardare qua.

 

 Per altri comandi rivolgersi a San man.

 

Messaggi occulti

 

All'interno di questa immagine, si nasconde un messaggio molto compromettente. La tecnica di nascondere all'interno di un file informazioni segrete, sia esso un file di testo, un file musicale oppure un file di un'immagine è nota come steganografia. Questa tecnica consiste nell'alterare pochi bit, senza chiaramente alterare in modo evidente il contenuto.

Quindi installiamo steghide

 

apt-get install steghide

 

Per prima otteniamo informazioni su quanti dati possiamo inserire nell'immagine

 

steghide info nonapritequellaporta.jpg

 

nel caso dell'immagine nonapritequellaporta.jpg abbiamo

 

"nonapritequellaporta.jpg": format: jpeg capacity: 4,8 KB

 

Adesso creiamo un file di testo (topsecret.txt) contenente il messaggio segreto da inserire nell'immagine, dopodichè l'inseriamo con il seguente comando

 

steghide embed -cf nonapritequellaporta.jpg -ef topsecret.txt -v -p "password"

 

l'opzione -p specifica la password da usare per cifare e decifrare l'informazione segreta

 

Per recuperare i dati occultati, si utilizza sempre steghide

 

steghide extract -v -sf nonapritequellaporta.jpg

 

la password per recuperare il file topsecret è 🙂

password

Per ulteriori opzioni, fare riferimento al manuale

 

Esistono altri due programmi da abbinare a steghide, e sono stegdetect e outguess. Il primo serve per rilevare se un file è steganografato, il secondo invece, rende molto più difficile l'individuazione , ed in più permette di inserire ben due messaggi. Entrambi installabili con apt.

BluePad controllo remoto

 

BluePad è un programma che serve per il controllo remoto. E’ composto da 2 programmi da installare sia sul pc che sul cellulare. E’ un progetto nato da poco e quindi, i cellulari testati sono davvero pochi, comunque è un progetto interessante, dato che sotto linux non mi risulta ci siano programmi simili. Al momento è stato testato sui seguenti cellulari:

 

Motorola V360 Motorola Razr V3x Motorola Razr V3xx Nokia 6230 Nokia 6230i Nokia 6234 Nokia 6280 Nokia 6300 Samsung E390 Sony Ericsson k750 Sony Ericsson k510

Per Debian ubuntu ecc esiste un pacchetto deb scaricabile qua

mentre, il programma per il cellulare è scaricabile da quì

 

Io al momento non ho avuto modo di provarlo, causa dipartita prematura del mio nokia,scontratosi con lo spigolo di un tavolo.

Il video di come funziona BluePad

Pytube, Gui per youtube

Pytube è una Gui , che permette di scaricare video da youtube e di convertirli contemporaneamente. Quindi è un alternativa a questo tipo di comando

 

ffmpeg -i filmato.flv -ab 56 -ar 22050 -b 500 -s 320×240 filmato.mpg

Supporta vari formati, mpg,ogg,mp3,wav,theora. Le dipendenze richieste sono: GTK+ 2.0, PyGTK 2, Notify Python, Youtube-DL, Mencoder, Mplayer, FFMPEG2Theora, OGGEnc, Zenity. Per ubuntu, tutte le architetture, si puo sacricare il pacchetto deb da qua, per il sorcio qua
