Can a diet that's good for the planet reduce your risk of dying from disease?
  • Three diets come to the mind. Mediterranean, Atlantic, Mormon diet as it is designed and followed in America. Followers of these diets tend to live healthy and long. What the three diets have in common is, each of them is local and seasonal to a large extent.

    Local and seasonal. Eases the transportation load and refrigeration load. Both contribute to what you refer to as good for the planet .

    Perhaps letting every region design and foster its own local and seasonal diet is a good idea.

    That brings us to the food industry. How may we escape the sales and marketing armies of the food industry? A great challenge indeed.

  • [Solved] Possible to lock a folder? To prevent it from being deleted.
  • Every modification and deletion is prevented regardless of the method, be it mv, rm or other commands on the terminal or through a GUI, with or without sudo until sudo chattr -R -i /path/to/directory is performed

  • Stardard FOSS Way to Send/Recieve SMS from Laptop/Desktop?
  • Been a few years since using Emacs extensively. From memory, IRC is a good fit for what you are after for texts and some emojis. No clue regarding multimedia messages.

    If IRC is acceptable

    Make your own channel on say, Libera chat, set your own rules for how long those messages are retained. Make a user for each of your devices. You are set. I've used ERC a few years under Emacs. Also used GNUS for reading and writing emails from the big providers.

  • Moving to a Linux distro for dev
  • If the MacBook is an Apple Silicon Mn processor one, Asahi is the obvious choice

    For other cases

    My first suggestion would be to try the distribution you used in WSL

    Second would be Linux Mint, can't go wrong with either of Ubuntu edition or the Debian edition

    Third would be OpenSUSE Tumbleweed. Though a rolling distribution, with easy rollback commands, any unusable state can easily be left behind

  • Help me choose linux's best option for public school lab (distro, desktop, etc.)
  • OpenSUSE newcomer here, from decades of Debian and Debian derived systems.

    I vote Debian with Xfce4 for the base system with Nix or Guix to let the kids freely install and play with software as required without requiring root. Stable release should be good. Testing release if time and resources to keep up with the updates are at hand.

    Along with teaching the kids computers and software, please also consider teaching them how the Debian packagers, maintainers, developers, testers, admins, etc work and might never meet others in the project whilst releasing a great system every couple of years.

  • Spending a billion dollars to bring solar manufacturing back to Australia is 'worth a shot', researchers say
  • Around the same time just have a think did a deeper dive on the idea https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gcSnwW5v3f8 . In the spirit of protecting the environment, it would be good to accommodate birds, wildlife etc in the thought process.

    Like you said, looks like a combination of resources, financing, political will and, the technology itself seem to have come together to bring us here.
