No worries! Install agedu and find out which directories or files are consuming more space.

That means you can use it for free, copy, distribute, and reuse."

"We might not have the money we want but we do have some control over our happiness levels. Dopamine, serotonin, oxytocin and endorphins are the brain chemicals responsible for our happiness.
