New update from Raspberry Pi makes DIY computing a breeze
A new version of Raspbian Operating System - Stretch, was released recently, and the hype it has caused among the Raspberry Pi owners is as big as its release. It is a well known fact that the Debian-based Raspbian gets a face-lift once in every two years, and with the completion of 2 years since Jessie' s introduction, Debian has now come with a new version Stretch, which has so many interesting updates.
Although, the changes are not visibly noticeable to many, it is said that most of the work has been carried under the hood. Instead of making changes to the OS as a whole, the new version includes new versions of major apps. The new release also ensures a better browsing experience to its users. The version 3.0.1 of Sonic Pi - a live music synthesizer and bundled Chromium Web browser, which is on the latest stable release, thus ensuring a better memory management and smooth experience.
Bluetooth audio has also been improved, as has handling of usernames. There’ s a new extension that allows SenseHAT to be used with Scratch 2, and a fix for the Broadpwn exploit which could potentially allow an attacker to take over the BCM43xx wireless chipset used in the Pi 3 and Pi Zero W, and execute code on it.
