    Thanks for this
    - can you consider increasing the terminal font size a bit (by 1 or 2 degrees)?
    - how do you burn keys onto yubico keys!?
    - more tails videos please :)
    - you can run diskutil list BEFORE inserting your flash drive then after to make sure you're selecting the correct destination

You mean to say that it works only works on older Mac models having Catalina OS? Please advise. Is there any instruction that can share on how to install either on Big Sur or Windows 10 in Mac book Pro 2020 model. Thanks in advance.

    Please slow down when you speak. Also, could you do a video series on: Verifying sig files and packages? Are these all the same methods?? Shasum or checksum, public and private developers keys, GPG method and using Terminal? Are they all doing the same thing just different ways? It's not clear from GPG, Tor and others are not clear. One video focusing on each one and not mixing them up in instructions/directions or when you speak. Stay on subject I like what you do and by the way, it isn't anyways. It's anyway. There is no 's' at the end. Thanks
