Hello! I am pretty new to Linux and have quite limited data experience but I understand the basics. I am not a full on newbie but I wanted to check with the experts before I attempt this. I have grown increasingly tired of windows in the past year, at this point I completely despise it and want to make the permanent switch to Linux. I have been thinking about both Debian and Arch but settled on Debian due to I'ts stability. My PC has high spec and meets the requirements easily. I already know I am going to factory reset the computer, since I want a clean slate and dont really have anything important on it. I watched the linked youtube video below and have decided to go with KDE Plasma as the desktop. The situation I want to ask about is how I can remove windows from my computer completeley? I do not want to dual boot with debian and I do not want any windows related files or software left. Can I just unplug the USB after the step where he downloads debian on it, then proceed to wiping my computer and load into the BIOS and move debian onto the computer? My goal is to have debian permanently on my pc installed and not boot from an usb, with the option to boot things like Tails from a usb when I like.

Hello! I have this hood that I sanded down to primer to fill some rusted stone chips and repaint. I have done this several times before but this time the sander went through the primer in some spots so I was wondering how the professionals do it 😆 I was thinking about spraying some epoxy primer with my spray gun in the bare steel spots and sand, then cover the spots a little further out in a layer of filler primer and lastly do another coat of filler primer over the entire hood to even it out? Only professionals reply please!
Many thanks!

Hello! I have this agressive damage from a small dent on a car I’m working on. Usually I will sand the whole panel and respray or swap the fender, but this time since it’s one of my personal vehicles I wanted to try something different. I have primed the surface and I want to try and do a spot repair after smoothing it. I usually only use the small kits on stone chips where you can barely see it but on these areas it comes out streaky from the brush. I was thinking about using my airbrush and try and blend it, has anyone done this before and do you have any tips? Thanks!
