Can confirm, it takes up so much space it’s surprising they install it by default, my drive is like 99% free now.

Unrelated, but none of my files are in my documents folder anymore and I can’t run steam, anyone know if they relied on the French language pack?

It was a joke, this time.

But back in my university days (holy shit I feel old, that was around 17 years ago), when flash drives were still new ish technology. I had installed a Linux live cd, which was a brand new idea back then, on my USB stick that also contained a bunch of my files.

I thought it would be a fun idea to rm -rf / to see what it would do to a live cd environment.

Then I realised it was not a fun idea as I started to see the names of my project documents being deleted.
