Um. Hi. I have… a lot of questions these days as a washed out programmer who burnt out in college.
1. How does Linux do Arch
First, I got myself an Arch Linux install cause being able to build the operating system with the pieces I need sounds very cool, but ngl… the Arch community scares me. So if I may…
- Do y’all know where I could find help for this?
- If I uninstall a desktop environment, do I get my settings back if I reinstall it?
- Is there a safe ish way to repartition if I set root and home to different partitions?
2. Very rusty
I’ve been trying my hand at Rust recently. But I am not sure of what can it actually do.
- Can Rust make .exe programs?
- Does it get crazy over time?
- How does one use git with Cargo?
3. Windows
So I have a main build that runs Windows, but I have been thinking of switching to a Linux DIstro. One SSD for OS, one HDD for data, 16GB RAM, AMD stuff. Anything I should know?
Yes I know this is dumb but I dont know where else to ask… Any help is appreciated
About that last one… yeahhh good point. Sorry I just dunno where to find them.
The partition problem is that… well I made the root 30GB and it’s about to fill up and now I wanna asign more space to root while taking some from home but im not sure if this gonna nuke my data if i try…
Boot a live usb with gparted, and you can resize and move partitions. It will take a while though, but should still boot.
Update: I did not know a GParted ISO existed before this post! Thank you so much, the partitions are A-OK now! °˖✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧˖°
