  • Maybe it depends on the access point. When I turn it off on my router there are no beacons sent. Unless you specifically probe the ssid it doesn’t announce itself. BUT granted when you make a connection the ssid does show up during the handshake. If you were watching at the exact moment of connection then it would be detectable. I suppose they could use a mass deauther device and cause new connections and detect while that is happening but they they would need to triangulate the location of said ap… Again a lot of extra equipment.






  • Btrfs and df don’t get along. There are all sorts of internals to btrfs that non btrfs utils ignore. You should run

    sudo btrfs filesystem df /
    sudo btrfs device usage /
    

    It will give you a better picture of what is going on.

    Balancing my help as someone above pointed out, or you may need to boot to a live media of some kind and rebuild the free space cache. Especially with btrfs I encourage people to join their mailing list for help. The devs are awesome and can help you get sorted out.




  • Fedora is systems, right? The easiest way to gain some (temporary) space is to clean out the journal and whatever logs you don’t need. It can grow quite big.

    sudo journalctl --vacuum-size=100M
    

    Will shrink it to something manageable. This will buy you some time to clean up until the journal grows again.

    Also, clearing the apt cache will probably help free up some root partition space

    sudo apt clean
    

    Your root partition where packages are stored and all the logs and transactional databases might be full even if your home directory has tons of free space.
