WEBVTT 00:01.020 --> 00:01.440 Right. 00:01.440 --> 00:07.380 So now that we have tills installed and we learned how to boot into it and this lecture, I want to 00:07.380 --> 00:11.280 give you a basic overview on this operating system. 00:11.820 --> 00:15.930 So first of all, on the top here we have the status bar. 00:16.470 --> 00:23.970 On the top left we have the applications menu, which contains a number of application categories nicely 00:23.970 --> 00:30.060 in terms of what they can be used for and the favorites you have your programs that you'll probably 00:30.060 --> 00:31.560 be using most of the time. 00:31.560 --> 00:36.410 We have the Tor browser, which we already know what it is and what it can be used for. 00:36.420 --> 00:39.090 We have Thunderbird, which is an email client. 00:39.090 --> 00:46.140 We have Pidgin, which is an instant messenger that can be configured to not keep any traces of you. 00:46.230 --> 00:51.990 We have a password manager and we have a terminal which we can use to run Linux commands. 00:52.970 --> 00:59.000 You can actually go through all of these and get familiar with all of the offered programs on the Internet. 00:59.030 --> 01:01.970 Here again, we have some of the programs that I just showed you. 01:02.000 --> 01:05.240 We also have Electron, which is a Bitcoin wallet. 01:06.210 --> 01:11.520 You have office programs, labor office that you can use instead of Microsoft Office Word. 01:11.610 --> 01:17.490 You have media programs and all the usual stuff that you see on different operating systems. 01:18.120 --> 01:22.500 Now, don't worry about all of the strange programs that you don't know in here. 01:22.650 --> 01:26.270 We will be using a lot of them as we go through the course. 01:26.280 --> 01:31.080 So right now, I'm just giving you a basic overview of the whole operating system. 01:31.080 --> 01:33.750 That's why I'm not going to be running any of them. 01:34.710 --> 01:41.160 Beside the applications we have the Places menu, which will allow you to access different folders in 01:41.160 --> 01:42.450 your file system. 01:42.990 --> 01:49.020 So as you can see, if we click on the home, we will actually get a file manager in the home directory. 01:49.020 --> 01:54.570 As you can see in here, you'll get to this exact location if you just double click the home icon in 01:54.570 --> 01:55.140 here. 01:56.360 --> 02:01.700 So again, as you can see here, we have a number of files similar to what you get with Windows. 02:01.700 --> 02:05.690 So we have documents, downloads, music, pictures and so on. 02:06.500 --> 02:13.760 Again, you can access each of these directories individually by going to places and just clicking on 02:13.760 --> 02:15.830 the directory that you want to access. 02:16.650 --> 02:18.060 Now it goes without saying. 02:18.060 --> 02:20.810 You can also navigate to this through this menu. 02:20.820 --> 02:26.760 You can double click a directory to open it and double click a file to execute it or to open it with 02:26.760 --> 02:28.200 its default program. 02:28.620 --> 02:33.150 Right click to create new directory to copy and paste to get properties. 02:33.150 --> 02:39.510 So it's all intuitive and it's all very, very similar to what you get with other operating systems. 02:40.900 --> 02:46.690 Now another really cool feature with tales is the fact that it supports multiple desktops. 02:46.720 --> 02:53.110 So right now we have a workspace right here, and let's say this workspace gets cluttered with a lot 02:53.110 --> 02:55.750 of applications, a lot of open windows. 02:55.750 --> 02:59.440 So let's open another window, for example, on documents. 02:59.710 --> 03:06.910 And let's say you already you also have a browser and you want to do more stuff than you can actually 03:06.910 --> 03:11.380 press control, alt and down to go to a new workspace. 03:11.380 --> 03:16.390 And right here I have an empty workspace which I can do more work in. 03:16.390 --> 03:22.360 So again, I can go to places and open something else here and I can do some work. 03:22.360 --> 03:28.930 For example, I can have my web browser in here and then control alt up to go to the first workspace. 03:29.110 --> 03:32.200 This one with the windows already open in here. 03:33.280 --> 03:40.960 Not only that, but you can also press the Windows button or the left command and se on OS x. 03:41.200 --> 03:47.260 This will reveal the activity menu which will first of all show you the open windows in the current 03:47.260 --> 03:48.340 workspace. 03:48.490 --> 03:54.460 It will also show you the available workspaces here on the right so I can click in here to go to the 03:54.460 --> 03:57.990 second workspace where I had my music open again. 03:58.000 --> 04:03.970 Click on this one to go to the first one and then click on the last one to go to the last workspace. 04:03.970 --> 04:10.270 So instead of pressing control, alt up and down, you can navigate through the workspaces like this. 04:10.270 --> 04:13.270 And also you can see the running applications. 04:14.210 --> 04:19.910 Not only that, but you can also see your favorite applications in here and a nice dock on the left. 04:20.030 --> 04:28.070 And you can press on this icon right here to get a list of all the applications installed on tables. 04:28.400 --> 04:34.160 So right here we have all of the other applications that we were navigating to through the applications 04:34.160 --> 04:34.820 menu. 04:35.000 --> 04:40.970 And if you can't find your application here or if you want to access it quickly, you can literally 04:40.970 --> 04:43.460 just type its name using the keyboard. 04:43.490 --> 04:50.060 So if I just type tore, it will bring me all of the applications that have the water in them. 04:50.150 --> 04:52.220 So this is really, really handy. 04:52.490 --> 04:58.220 Again, this is the activity view and you can access this by pressing the Windows button on Windows 04:58.220 --> 05:04.010 computers or the right cmd and SE on OS X computers. 05:05.000 --> 05:10.880 I'm going to press escape to exit this and we're back at the main desktop. 05:11.480 --> 05:13.890 Now, I think this is enough for this lecture. 05:13.910 --> 05:17.870 In the next lecture, I'll continue covering the basics of tails. 05:17.900 --> 05:23.510 I'll show you how to see the notifications, how to edit the preferences, how to connect to networks 05:23.510 --> 05:24.620 and so on.
