I mean, there’s Van Halen and Van Haggar. Does Blink 182 count (Mark + Tom, Mark + Matt, and now Mark + Tom again)?

Your wording is hard to understand. Are you asking if you can make /usr its own partition? If that’s your question, you can. You need to make sure that “usr” and “fsck” are in HOOKS in /etc/mkinitcpio.conf.

I can see how /usr can balloon in size. My /usr is 22G with 1613 packages installed.

I TOTALLY expect that to happen

Through Steam and Proton, I’m able to play most of the games I’m interested in: Mass Effect, Last of Us, Jedi Fallen Order & Survivor. Steam Deck is built on Linux too.
