09:32 schestowitz; <blockquote>
09:32 schestowitz; <p>Tails 5.13 looks like a small release, but it introduces an important change to better protect your anonymity and keep your files secure at all times. Starting with this version, all newly generated Persistent Storage and LUKS encrypted volumes will be using version 2 of the Linux Unified Key Setup (LUKS) disk encryption specification by default.</p>

09:48 schestowitz; <p>This looks like a cross between a flute, an ocarina, and an old cell phone. The front face has 35 buttons to trigger specific notes. But there are two ways for the player to gain almost analog control over the output: a mouthpiece with a breath sensor and a linear touch sensor. The breath sensor lets the player control the intensity of a note by blowing into the mouthpiece like a wind instrumen
