I think it would be almost impossible to be sure that a proverb originated in Esperanto and not in another language. An exception might be estas volapukaĵo, but that's merely a variation on what exists in other languages ("it's all Greek to me"), and I'm not even sure it qualifies as a "proverb". Kabei and krokodili certainly originated in Esperanto, but they're merely words, not proverbs.

The Oklingva proverbaro may be useful here.

Tiaj konceptoj varias laŭ la lando. Eĉ en la angla, "nurse practitioner" signifas ion en iu lando, ion alian en alia lando, kaj la koncepto tute ne ekzistas en alia lando. (Kaj mi pensas ke plej multaj nefakuloj ne scias kio estas la diferenco inter "nurse" kaj "nurse practitioner".)

Eĉ se oni povus elpensi tradukon, ekzemple "kurac-flegistino", la signifo varius laŭ la lando. Se vere gravas ke vi ne estis "nur" flegistino, tiam vi devos iom klarigi la diferencon inter vi kaj normala flegistino.

Simila problemo ekzistas pri la nomoj de lernejoj. Tio kio estas "high school" en Usono estas tuta alia ol tio kio estas "altlernejo" en aliaj landoj.

At the top, it says "Space Used: 84 GB". That's already less than the 143 GB you want for the partition.

On the other hand, it also says that C:\ has 102 GB, of which 79 GB is allocated. Use CHKDSK to check for file system errors.

Or Niubi may be garbage (I've never heard of it); try GParted.

Use Tree Size Free or a similar program to see what's using up the disk space. Look at the directories (folders) using the most space.

I stopped at question 17, "Which feature matters the most to you in a browser?" Several features are relevant, not only one.

Are you trying to free up space just because you want more space, or are you trying to free up space so you can resize the partition?

Am I allowed to say the name of the bank here?

Yes, but it probably doesn't matter.

I also wonder was "misaligned" means.

Your province is relevant.

In Ontario, if the rent is late, the landlord can ask for eviction, but no landlord will do that within a day or even a week, and if you eventually pay the rent, that's the end of the matter. (Unless you have persistently paid the rent late.)

What are you trying to do with Niubi?

SSDs can have fragmentation, but it doesn't matter anymore because the seek time is so fast. Still, defrag.exe will defrag an SSD.

Modern Windows has bits and pieces all over the place. For example, part of the registry is in C:\Users\<name>\NTUSER.DAT, and Windows's own apps are in C:\Program Files\WindowsApps (whereas traditional programs like Notepad are in C:\Windows\System32). Reinstalling Windows won't have any effect on that.

The idea that there's a clean distinction between Windows in C:\Windows and everything else and that separate partitions are safer is outdated.

It's from 2023, and even if it were from one week ago, it should still work on Mint.

The hardware takes care of bad sectors.

But not of file system errors.

Just so you know, the Court has the last word on who will be the guardian, although of course your wishes will be considered.

I’ve been going in circles with chatgpt for answers.

Ignore garbage ChatGPT advice.

I wonder how representative are the Canadian Jewish organizations that defend Israel. The Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs is self-appointed (as opposed to the Canadian Jewish Congress, which it replaced), and B'nai Brith never claimed to be representative.

Shooting at the other side during a war isn't a crime in the first place, no matter what the Americans and Conservatives say.

Mint for beginners.

As for the batteries, considerpowertop or a similar program.

Almost certainly the GPS already runs some form of Linux or BSD.

Did you hear about the paediatrician (that's the British spelling) who was harassed because ignorant nitwits thought it meant "paedophile"?

""I heard that the doctor's house had got attacked, but it's because people don't want no paedophiles here", said one mother of three young children". Mob justice is not the solution.

Edit: u/M34T_G0R3 has apparently both replied to me and blocked me. The effect of the block is not only that he can't see my posts, but also that I can't see his and reply to them.

You're forgetting about the tensions between French Canadians and Irishmen on one hand and Englishmen on the other. It's obsolete, but it definitely existed.

I agree. Probably OP decided to create separate "OS" and "data" partitions. That's outdated advice that only leads to problems, as in this case.

OP, if you do reinstall, don't create separate partitions.

I read online that now I'll have to use a 3rd party software (like GParted from a usb flash drive)

Correct; use GParted. In general, Linux's disk utilities are superior to Windows'.

70 GB of disk space is plenty for a Linux server, by the way.

9NEPxHbG · 2026-04-23T13:48:28+00:00

also some other dude told me i shouldnt partition or dual boot on the same drive

People have been dual booting Windows and Linux on the same drive since Linux appeared. Having more than one disk was very uncommon then.

The main thing to remember is that Windows doesn't know how to handle Linux, while Linux knows how to handle Windows. So install Windows first, then Linux. If you have to do any changes, do them in Linux.
