hey, privacy concerned folks,
DON'T USE BALENA ETCHER TO USB YOUR ISOs
As @tailsos-official stated in their blog post, it displays ads which is weird for a simple disk imaging tool and more important:
It shares your IP address, the file name of the image the model of the USB stick and a bunch of other things with the Balena company and third parties.
On Windows, use Rufus instead. It's pretty neat.
On Mac, use the Raspberry Pi Imager. It does its job. Or if you don't mind the terminal, use dd. It's built-in.
On Linux you can use dd, or whatever comes with your DE. Or whatever else you prefer. We got options.
You can also use Ventoy and just chuck all your ISOs on it. No need to reformat your usb drives again just for a new boot stick. One USB to rule them all.

Cybersecurity pro tip: You don't have to worry about data exfiltration of deleted files on your drive if you open each file individually and overwrite all of the data with 0's and then save it. This is because you have saved 0's over your old data and can now safely discard it like trash. This definitely works in production enviroments and you can just do this wholesale from now on forever. 👍
One of the big joys about being a linux user (aside from being free of windows' garbage, your computer actually listening to you, etc) is being able to go up to your average to moderately computer literate friends and explain to them That One Hacky Fix you had for That One Niche Problem with a little bit of computer jargon and watch them be completely terrified of you and your power
haiiiii *slips you one 73% crisp $20 bill*
whats you completely unbiased opinion on the Private, Portable, charming distro @tailsos-official?
They make a distribution for the freaking idiot who lost me my rings in the Sonic 2 special stages? 0/10, keep your cash.

Tails 7.4.1
https://tails.net/news/version_7.4.1/
Emergency hotfix for OpenSSL vulnerability set DSA 6113-1, which can be used by malicious nodes to deanonymize TOR users.
The TOR homepage may still state you are using 7.4 after the upgrade. If you are unsure, go to Apps > Tails > About Tails to see the version number. This is a known issue.
