Omfg. Um. Hello there.
*Starts a fire in my pants!!!*
*gets trapped in lift*
The best part is that there’s a fairly decent chance, given the background of the photo (dry wilderness and scrub brush) that the firefighter in this picture is a Hotshot—
And Hotshots, along with Smoke-Jumpers, are sort of like… Okay. If firefighters are rockstars, Hot-Shots are Queen and Smoke-Jumpers are whatever Tony Stark uses to rev himself up for badassery.
Hotshots are elite firefighters who train extensively and are inserted into high-risk terrain in order to fight the fire on the ground.
In layman’s terms—if there’s a forest fire threatening your house, the hotshots are the dudes digging the fire trenches while whirling beams of fire snap give feet from them.And then, then, there’s the Smoke-Jumpers. As their name implies, they jump smoke.
In layman’s terms—the fires the hotshots can’t reach by land? Those crazy fuckera PARACHUTE into forest fires.Because jumping out of a plane isn’t scary enough, they do it in near-zero visibility, through scorching smoke, with the risk that the thermals and currents could blow them right into a burning tree, to pick a landing spot so they can then be in remote backwoods wilderness with minimal hope of rescue if something goes tits up.
So yeah. If this lady’s an urban firefighter she’s a huge badass. But if my guess is right and she’s a more elite unit, then I want to have her gay babies like, yesterday.
Whoa.
SUP.

Tails 1.0 is out
Tails, The Amnesic Incognito Live System, version 1.0, is out.
All users must upgrade as soon as possible: this release fixes numerous security issues.
For more information about what the 1.0 release means for Tails, and about its future, see the full announcement.
Changes
Notable user-visible changes include:
- Security fixes
- Upgrade the web browser to 24.5.0esr-0+tails1~bpo60+1 (Firefox 24.5.0esr + Iceweasel patches + Torbrowser patches).
- Upgrade Tor to 0.2.4.21-1+tails1~d60.squeeze+1:
- Based on 0.2.4.21-1~d60.squeeze+1.
- Backport the fix for bug #11464 on Tor Project's Trac. It adds client-side blacklists for all Tor directory authority keys that was vulnerable to Heartbleed. This protects clients in case attackers were able to compromise a majority of the authority signing and identity keys.
- Bugfixes
- Disable inbound I2P connections. Tails already restricts incoming connections, but this change tells I2P about it.
- Fix link to the system requirements documentation page in the Tails Upgrader error shown when too little RAM is available.
- Minor improvements
- Upgrade I2P to 0.9.12-2~deb6u+1.
- Import TorBrowser profile. This was forgotten in Tails 0.23 and even though we didn't explicitly set those preferences in that release they defaulted to the same values. This future-proofs us in case the defaults would ever change.
- Import new custom version of Tor Launcher:
- Based on upstream Tor Launcher 0.2.5.3.
- Improve how Tor Launcher handles incomplete translation. (bug #11483 on Tor Project's Trac; more future-proof fix for ticket #6885)
- Remove the bridge settings prompt. (bug #11482 on Tor Project's Trac; closes ticket #6934)
- Always show bridge help button. (bug #11484 on Tor Project's Trac)
- Integrate the new Tails logo into various places:
- The website
- The boot splash
- The "About Tails" dialog
See the online Changelog for technical details.
Known issues
- Longstanding known issues.
I want to try it or to upgrade!
Go to the download page.
As no software is ever perfect, we maintain a list of problems that affects the last release of Tails.
What's coming up?
The next Tails release is scheduled for June 10.
Have a look to our roadmap to see where we are heading to.
