Tools like GParted should be able to safely reduce the size of the partition so you can add a second. (Always backup data in case)

Not all ideas are good, but a good idea can come from anywhere.

If you're looking to research more on this, look for "body doubling". It's the only way I get anything important done.

You don't need to have an opinion on everything.

Before the internet, people generally didn't have enough information to form an opinion on most things, so the default answer was "I don't know".

Nowadays people are bombarded with so much information that you have people forming strong opinions on a topic and sometimes even making that opinion their entire identity while barely understanding any of it. I'd much rather have a few strong opinions on a few topics I care about, and leave everyone else to worry about the rest.

Perhaps favourite colors is a little different to deciding on vaccines or climate change, but the sentiment is the same. "I don't know" is a perfectly valid answer, and more people need to get comfortable with it.

I wanted to install an extra hard drive in my computer, but the power supply didn't have enough connectors. I actually had a spare power supply unit, but upon testing, the 24 pin cable was too short to reach the motherboard.

I ended up using both PSUs. Only one had a power switch on it, so that was connected to the hard drives. I had to use a paperclip in the unused 24 pin connector to make it output power. The 2 PSUs had a wire running between the ground pins of a random unused connector, and they were on the same phase circuit.

The hard drive PSU had to be turned on first at the switch. Once that was on, I could press the power button to turn on the computer. I think I used it for about a year before buying enough upgrade parts to effectively replace the entire computer.

I still see this every few months.

I think it's happening if a key is released at the same time as a window opens or changes to full screen, but it's too rare to properly troubleshoot. The fix is still the same.

You don't need to do everything every day. Some days, surviving is enough.

Research "body doubling". It's the only way I get important tasks at home done.

I read through seeming endless logs from a battle simulation and used these log to improve the accuracy of the simulation. It may seem like tedious work not fitting of a Klingon warrior, but now our brothers and sisters will be more prepared with a fair simulation as they train FOR THE GLORY OF THE EMPIRE!

I believe they are all residential. There might be a few small businesses, but nothing huge.
