I have a PC currently configured to dual boot Windows 10 and Linux Mint. I don’t need Windows anymore, but Mint is working just fine and I’d rather avoid wiping the whole thing and starting over. Is there a safe way to just get rid of Windows?

I already use Guix shell as a package manager on top of Debian (for programming mainly) and occasionally Arch in an VM (managed by virt-manager).
I don’t have the impression that using NixOS or full Guix would save me time. But I will probably try Guix System on a spare disk in the next months, when I have time and energy to get a feel on it.
Oh it almost certainly won’t save you time unless you already know Nix and how the ecosystem works. But it does make rolling back to previous configurations basically effortless, which seems like it would obviate your need for a full staging drive.
