irtualization. LXC (or some sort of chroot solution) in particular
might be a good fit here - you get a separate filesystem, without the

A third solution to consider: firejail (I use Zoom firejailed)
Celejar
may rely upon system
libraries and other dependencies, which is good, insofar as everything
works, but it will also have more of a chance to mess with the system
(even if only accidentally).

'apt install zoom_amd64.deb' goes smoothly as well. Confinement is
certainly a good thing - I'll have to look into whether the snap route
is preferable to the firejail solution that I currently use.

Snark aside, what's wrong with something like this:
"Many wireless network cards (and even some wired ones) require
non-free firmware to function properly. This firmware is not included
in the standard installation images, due to Debian's free software
ideals. If the network hardware your installation will rely upon
requires such firmware, you may consider using the alternate non-free
installation images available here."

You're going to have to be more specific about what software framework
you're using to manage your WiFi access, and what you mean by "remove."

cripts that use standard tools should
explicitly disable configuration file reading, e.g.:
wget --no-config ...

wouldn't start. I didn't experiment too much further to see how much
functionality the card provided without its firmware.

FWIW, I've gotten the Quadro K620M on my Lenovo W550s to work with a fair
amount of fiddling using various methods (Optimus, nvidia-xrun), but
the performance was always disappointing and (for me) just not worth
it, so I don't bother.

d it did work simply and nicely.
Huh - that looks neat! I have Syncthing set up to do my file
transferring between phone, laptop, and servers, but this certainly
looks like a useful solution for situations where one just needs a
quick and simple way to do a file transfer.

't need to backup when
upgrading, either. (Of course, you should always be backing up
everything you care about, whatever you're doing.)

ive is just sitting there, but I can't decide
whether to go with a new install, and spend the time getting rid of
stuff I really don't need (which will take more time than the actual
install, as you say) and migrate configuration, or to just do what Felix
suggests in another method in this thread and just clone partitions.

o much more elegant solutions (just an example):

Yes. And what does "audio is off" mean - is the microphone physically
sound-shielded, or just disabled in software (on some level of the
system)? If the latter, why shouldn't that suffice for the camera as
well?

mehow figure out that he has to first discover the
offered resolutions via something like lsusb or Cheese [0], and then enter
them manually via the 'width' and 'height' parameters?!
Who designed this thing's UIs? At least Cheese offers a relatively
straightforward way of setting the resolution.
