Hmm, I'm fewer sure of that.

A reboot will make whatever processes that are still using those deleted files let go of them. Maybe that solves your problem. If not, ncdu will help you find large files and directories.
It's the sum total. SSD's would have become the success they are today if it were localized.
Can confirm, have a cat and don't have that issue. Because I lock the screen when leaving the machine unattended.
Even LibreOffice can only recover what has been saved. And if autosave is off, there might be less to recover than desirable. Again, that's a UXD problem.
That's why I lock my machine before walking away. That's + L for those who don't know.
Btw automatically saving is a generally undesirable feature as it could reduce the lifetime of ssds, slowdown the system if the file Is big or stored on slow media like network.
I don't know what kind of files you write regularly, but even the smallest and cheapest PCIe 3.0 NVMe drive can store data at 600 megabytes per second or more. That's plenty fast enough for my office documents at least. And you can rewrite the entire contents of the drive a hundred times or more before it fails. So I wouldn't lose any sleep over having autosave on.
Eventually people will have to get new hardware. That's the moment to avoid nVidia, that's how simple this can be.
Also, the problem is nVidia giving shitty Wayland support, not Wayland providing no nVidia support. It's nVidia who has to write the drivers since they themselves opted to keep their implementation details a secret. There's nothing the Wayland people can do except plea, beg and shame. If nVidia then decide not to care, then I say fuck them.
The first effects could be witnessed thirty years ago. But it's becoming increasingly difficult to ignore. That's why the fossil fuel industry has moved the goal posts and introduced the "climate change is of all times, it's not caused by us" talking point, as demonstrated by Victor. But Victor is behind the times, the new one is "yes, we caused it but it's not a big deal".
That's correct. It's not just limited to computers or only two devices though.
I disagree that it is bad design. It's cheap and I also find it ugly, but it does get the job done just fine.
I can see this meaning a number of different things:
you want to move your home directory to a separate partition: You can just create a new partition and move your stuff there. People have suggested rsync, and that's fine. Personally, I'd use mc (midnight commander) for that because it's easier.
you want to know how to transfer your future home partition to a future bigger drive: You could do as above, or you could use clonezilla for that.
you want to transfer files from your old Windows setup to your new Linux system: You can just mount an NTFS partition and do as described under point 1. I'd be wary to write to an NTFS partition, but reading from it works just fine.
