Here's what's been accomplished so far:
---------------
-bash.3[~]: cd /
-bash.4[/]: df -hP
Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
devtmpfs        7.8G     0  7.8G   0% /dev
tmpfs           7.9G   76M  7.8G   1% /dev/shm
tmpfs           7.9G  1.7M  7.9G   1% /run
tmpfs           7.9G     0  7.9G   0% /sys/fs/cgroup
/dev/sda6        50G   31G   16G  67% /
tmpfs           7.9G  116K  7.9G   1% /tmp
/dev/sda3       477M  236M  213M  53% /boot
/dev/sda7       904G  7.7G  851G   1% /home
tmpfs           1.6G   72K  1.6G   1% /run/user/1001
tmpfs           1.6G  4.0K  1.6G   1% /run/user/0

When I look at that I think.

Hummmm, /home is rather large and underutilized.  You may want to consider:

1.  Backing up /home
2.  Reducing the size of /home
3.  Using the freed space of /home (20~30GB maybe) to create a new partition and move /var to there.

Depending on what you do/install/whatever you'll have room for growth without having to, potentially,
do this same exercise sometime in the future.
