ok, so I followed your link:

if I installed yt-dlp with wget https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/releases/latest/download/yt-dlp -O ~/.local/bin/yt-dlp, is it enough to install deno with curl -fsSL https://deno.land/install.sh | sh?

your link talks about Official PyInstaller-bundled executable users, PyPI package users and Third-party package users. I don’t find wget anywhere, which confuses me.

asking as a noob now, can I use this to set a static ip address on my computer?

I don’t even know the difference between router and computer.

How have you installed the yt-dlp app?

all I know is I update executing yt-dlp -U, not using apt sources

thanks. I read that command somewhere but thought I had to edit it to name specifically my username.

I installed baobab 48.0.2 with sudo apt.

should I install ncdu 2.9.1 with uniget install ncdu? the apt version is older than that

du -hsc /var

sudo du -hsc /var returns: 10G /var, 10G total

du -hsc /var returns: du: cannot read directory '/var/lost+found': Permission denied, du: cannot read directory '/var/spool/cron/crontabs': Permission denied…

holy crap you’re fast

android 4.3

xfce, and thanks! it worked!

I don’t get it then. I installed debian 13 with xfce and now I’m using gnome??

xfce on an clevo notebook

still don’t follow: should I shrink instead of resize?

debian 13 needs more boot space, my boot partition is too small to complete the upgrade

please eli5

is gparted better than KDE partition manager? or gnome’s?

or offline partition shrinking, moving after a data backup if you have personal files you care about

what you are saying is: copy all your data to another drive, expand the boot partition shrinking the main storage drive and then copying back?

sorry, typed that wrong, debian 12.11

I listed all installed kernels:

dpkg -l | grep linux-image | awk ‘{print$2}’

then removed several old kernels:

sudo apt remove --purge linux-image-XXX

then updated grub:

sudo update-grub2

if by fresh install you mean nuking the old partitions and installing brand new 13.0 from an usb stick no, this is not a fresh install, fresh as in just now installed

I am running trixie

in /etc/apt/sources.list.d there is only one txt file named debian.sources, as explained in debian’s instructions page. Is that wyat you mean?

I also updated grub after freeing some boot space: sudo update-grub2
