My current system was installed as manjaro, but i immediately started having AUR issues, so I just changed all the repos out to the official arch ones and over time everything manjaro specific has been updated or removed.

The first lines in my /var/log/pacman.log are from early 2015, and ive fully rebuilt my computer since then, including swapping hard drives (dd’ to clone old drive onto new drive). So at this point my PC is a hardware and software ship of theseus.

If those personal photos and videos are important to you, you should have them backed up anyway. If you ever spill anything on that laptop, or it gets dropped or broken or lost. All those things are gone.

But as others have said, you can sometimes resize a partition from gparted if the drive isnt mounted (ie, use the live USB).

Also starship hasn’t started its operational lifespan. These are test articles still. They should absolutely be treating them with respect and due diligence since they are launching, but this is just highly public testing on a reusable rocket. Success not guaranteed and that’s why they aren’t flying real payloads (even of their own).

Also, pretty sure Apollo 1 was a great example of Saturn rockets not being flawless.
