I would recommend using Timeshift. BTRFS mode can create local snapshots and rsync mode can be used to backup to external media. Timeshift can exclude directories based on user preferences.

/mnt is for anything and everything. /media doesn’t even exist on Arch based distros and maybe others.

When I did dual boot (good riddance) I gave Linux <100 GB and rest to Windows. I had additional storage partitions but in long term they made management harder for me so I mounted Windows partition for additional space. Here are my recommendations:

• Merge “Mint” and “Timeshift” partitions.
• Use BTRFS if you can. In rsync mode of timeshift, the disk will hold 2 copies of your current system + changes between snapshots. In BTRFS there will be 1 copy + changes. BTRFS also supports compression.
• System wide flatpaks are in /var/lib/flatpak/app. Flatpak installed for one user only are installed somewhere in ~/.var. Keep in mind that home directory is not backed up by default.
• If you can, ditch dual boot. If the reason of keeping Windows is MS Office or Adobe apps, you can install them on Wine.

Does this happen on YT? Enable hw acceleration and install enhanced h264ify.

You can move Windows Recovery to C: drive but I don’t recall the exact commands. Maybe I moved the recovery image to C: partition. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/manufacture/desktop/reagentc-command-line-options?view=windows-11

Make the download folder read only😈

Installing updates… Do not turn off your computer

Enlightenment is on version 26

I recently tried to compile Crossover’s Wine from source. I went through many compile errors, fixed dependency issues and started over etc. In the end I think I compiled vanilla Wine imstead of Crossover (there are different source tarballs) because O365 still refused to install lol.

I used Enlightenment on Arch Linux for a year, in 2020-21. The PC had 4G ram and an HDD, Enlightenment was blazing fast. I could type enlightenment_start to a tty and reach a Wayland desktop under a second with 250M ram used total. E is still alive and kicking.

The snapshot may be mounted to root. In the output of “mount” command, if there isn’t a subvolid= or subvol= parameter for root mount, snapshot 166 is currently mounted to root.

I use ad blocker but do not spoof user agent. If uBlpck does not block statcounter, I should be counted.

There are many games & software with no Linux support, not to mention AC blocked games. Increased marketshare could change a thing or two, at least.

Oh my god

Make sure it doesn’t have anything valuable. Use rm -rf

sudo mount -o subvolid=5 /dev/<your disk here> /mnt This will give you full access to the filesystem, then you can identify the full path of snapshots and delete them ie. sudo btrfs subvolume delete /mnt/... In openSUSE, snapper works by booting to a snapshot. “mount” command will reveal which subvolume you are booted from.

No there aren’t, by “PC gaming on Android” I meant stuff like fallout 3 https://old.reddit.com/r/fo3/comments/15so231/fallout_3_fully_playable_on_mobile_at_30_fps_s23/
