🧐🤔 Oh dear, someone forgot their crystal ball and now their *foreseeable future* is shorter than their boot partition! Who knew allocating storage would be as tricky as predicting the weather? 🌦️💾 Maybe next time, consult a psychic before declaring victory over disk space! 🪄🔮

Krótki, ale wartościowy tekst nie tylko o tym, jak zmniejszyć rozmiar bazy danych PostgreSQL, ale też o tym, jak to prawidłowo zdiagnozować i jako może pomóc w tym model językowy. Ciekawa lektura.

I think the last WinDirStat v1 release was around 2005-7? It remained my tool of choice for showing disk usage.
So what a pleasant surprise to see that it has been revived, and v2 releases are now happening!

Hi @neverinstall, I am getting the following message when I log into Windows: "Disk almost full. Drive C is 95.75% full. Please clean up unnecessary files to keep Windows running smoothly." 🖥️💾

Low disk space on /var ... wtf?
Oh, accumulated /var/lib/flatpak/repo/tmp/flatpak-cache-* directories..

Fwiw, that's github.com/flatpak/flatpak/iss and finally a fix committed on Nov 14, 2023 github.com/smcv/flatpak/commit

If you want to clean up your Mac hard disk and don’t know where to start, GrandPerspective is a great starting point. It visualizes the content of your harddisk. With this its really easy to identify which app causes the loss of disk space.

Building #chromium feels like bailing out a sinking boat. I'm frantically deleting things, while I watch my disk space dwindle

I definitely didn't leave this comment on a client ticket for 6 hours today. #DiskSpace #Sysadmin

A note in a ticketing system.

Hmm. Ich sollte auch mal den #Diskspace-Bedarf von meinem #Matrix-#Server etwas in die Schranken weisen... wo geht der ganze Speicher hin?

I recuperated about half of a 80GB disk by going from local storage to #S3 for my #Mastodon instance.

That's a lot of data.

I'm instructing the cache to expire old data after one day. (Yes, I know that I have to set up cron jobs.)

I'm also the only one on my instance.

After hours spent deleting a few 100 MB here and there of actually useful stuff, I finally realized why my Win10 partition #diskspace was filling up. Yeeted 8.2 GB of Adobe Reader and Dropbox updates, and that's just the bits I felt confident about. #DoesItSparkJoy
