My son is currently doing A levels, his subjects are Design & Technology, Sociology, Photography & an EPQ.

I'm currently on the lookout for books (anything really)that can help him through these. Is there anyone out there that can recommend books that helped you study those subject areas.

He didn't study Design & Technology at GCSE level so he might need something that covers the fundamentals.

That sounds perfect, thank you so much for your replies & time. I'm gonna give it a go next weekend.

That's the thing that has me worried, deleting partitions. A long time ago (15 years or so) I deleted a partition in windows and it really messed everything up, that's what has made me question whether it is a simple case of just running the Bazzite installer and it holding my hand all the way.

I'm planning on doing it next weekend as this weekend just became busy. No doubt I'll be back here asking more questions.

Thanks to everyone who has responded so far it's been very helpful.

I'm not concerned with keeping any data as the things I need are on separate a HD & SSD's. I just wondered if I might not be able to do a clean install of Bazzite over Nobara, I am really new to all this but learning from you guys & as I go.

Good to know. I use flatpak in Nobara atm too. My main concern with being totally new to this would be not being able to install Bazzite over Nobara. It's a steep learning curve for me but I do enjoy things like that.

Hi all,

I'm very much a Linux newbie. I originally read that Nobara was great for gaming (and it is) but I've read even better things about Bazzite and want to give it a whirl.

My question is, am I able to download it to a usb and just do a clean install without issues or do I have to do anything beforehand. I originally installed Nobara using btrfs if that makes any difference.

Like I said I'm really new at this, hopefully it's ok to post this here but if not please let me know where would be more appropriate.

Somewhat related, as a kid the first joke I remember that made my cheeks & ribs hurt with streaming tears was

What do you call a fly without wings?

A walk.

They're using a very funny (imo) line from The Life of Brian. They just changed the words.

Definitely something for me to watch for, I always test for ketones when I suspect my daughter is ill, I've actually never seen her have a fever. 97.7 wow! I remember when covid was at its worst here, we had messages from the hospital telling us to test frequently and adjust doses accordingly.

I'm not a bright man and this is an honest question, are you a diabetic? If so that's really interesting as my daughter is type one, I find that quite fascinating that you don't get a fever and something for me to look out for.

You can bet your ass they would.

I had the same issue, managed to get my 78 year old mother to swap then they removed text, so now no one in the family will swap.
