I've done that, /home and /var on the HDD. The larger apps I use (libreoffice, gimp, firefox) I set up as flatpak user installs, and many others I use as AppImages, keeping them in my home directory. I haven't set it all up but it looks doable.
That was reassuring to hear, so I went ahead with it and so far it's looking good. Thanks for the comment.
Thanks for the response :)
The issue with having /usr/bin
and stuff on the HDD then mounting it to the SDD is that both system software I want to using the SSD for faster booting and packages I install will both end up on the HDD. I need some way of only having non-system software on the HDD.
Thanks, that sounds like it would work. But it also seems fragile since it would be up to me to keep track of everything.
So far I have found flatpak user installs but I'm looking for other solutions that would work generally for packages I install through apt.
Thanks, got that part. I meant more like, why do you say that? Because lacking power the activists are resorting to spraying monuments?
Anything that I do to ...
But I never suggested anything so extreme, now did I? I argued that one harmless act they did was justified given the context of who they did it to, not that absolutely anything they do would be justified.
... aren’t going to change the world.
No one has ever claimed they and the stuff they've done is all it takes to solve these issues. They are a group that is part of a movement, and what they are doing is part of the work that is needed to bring about change.
You can't just look at the acts, you need to look at their effects. In a democracy, you need to raise awareness and pressure representatives to bring about change. Which is what they're doing by spray painting private jets and other vandalism they did.
You need BILLIONS of people on board ...
I don't know why you think that. Do you think countries held referendums before deciding to shift to more renewables, pass green taxes, etc.? They haven't, and obviously they won't.
Oh I didn't notice that.
Took a quick look at Reddit and it's more encouraging. Some posts have a fair number of comments about private jet emissions, others posts didn't have a single one about it.
I wrote that badly. I wanted to say that this sort of activism is valuable because it starts conversations like this. Which educates people, raising awareness.
others than the people who already are motivated.
We were all clueless about this at one time. Conversations like this educate people, I think it's obvious a lot more people will be upset with the emissions of private jets after this, than before the group vandalized.
I’m actually taking concrete action ... rather than pissing off a bunch of people
Yes and this is an example of a justified campaign for some systemic change, something quite different from what you're doing. I'm sure you'll agree that once it is them causing a huge amount of damage, inconveniencing them is ok if it gets a message to them, and gets people talking about a non-proliferation treaty and the harms of private jets?
whose support I really need for my cause
I'm not entirely sure what you mean here. But they won't be drawing up new laws. And we can't rely on their good will seeing all the cases of companies focusing on their bottom line while knowingly harming people and the environment.
Any similar artists you'd recommend? I think electric wizard is one of the only metal bands I've enjoyed.
