So I did another quick run-through of the podcasts I’m subscribe to, and realized that one of them just wasn’t of any interest to me anymore. I remember why I subscribe to it and the first place, but nowadays I am subscribed to a better podcast, if for similar reasons. So I just unsubscribed, and just like that, 20 fucking gigabytes were freed up. Holy hell. I am currently still north of 220 GB used, but now there’s certainly more breathing room.
I have been managing to otherwise chip away at my backlog of downloaded episodes, some of them at 2x speed. That also has helped. Not just on the space issue, but in the sense of also learning and expanding the mind. It’s a ball of mercury thing.
