I went camping once with my dad and a few of his buddies when it was frigid cold outside. We piled 5 adult bodies into a camper, and they also left a Coleman gas lantern lit inside the camper all night for warmth.

I couldn’t sleep for two reasons:

1. One of my dad’s buddies had horrible snoring, and

2. I could feel myself choking on the stale air. I ventured outside every so often and would hold the camper door open for a few minutes (or until I would get yelled at). I don’t remember 100% but I think I had a persistent headache that night.

I’m still convinced we could have all died.

Iirc the original steamOS was Debian based and you really had to be an experienced Linux user to use and enjoy it.

I’m waiting in the exact same position. I’m thinking I want at least a 60% drop on the base steam price… staying hopeful

In the future, you should look into using LVMs for your partitions. I ran into a similar problem recently where my /var needed to be increased - I was able to run a simple lvextend -L+4G /dev/myvg/var --resizefs to grow my /var by 4 gigabytes.

Before I was using LVMs though I used a gparted live disk a lot

I’ve been a decades long Gentoo user, but now I’m experimenting with NixOS as I’ve gotten older and value my time more. The 12+ hours of compiling when there’s a chromium / QT update is no longer a badge of honor. I haven’t fully converted though, Gentoo binary packages are working as an acceptable stopgap
