vipaal,

Bash as it is what I’m most familiar with. Having an eye out on the amber-lang.com that compiles to bash for future scripting purposes.

vipaal,

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.

How easy is it to switch back to windows?

I’m considering switching to linux but I’m not a computer savvy person, so I wanted to have the option to switch back to windows if unforeseen complications (I only have 1 pc). Is it just a download on usb and install? And what ways can I get the product key or “cleaner” debloated versions.

vipaal,

www.revi.cc – found this on another post here. Not sure how to link the post itself, so linking what the post wanted to share. This aims to debloat Windows, and is free and open source.

vipaal,

www.byobu.org can eschew both screen and tmux Mosh (the mobile SSH client, not linking here) if installing it on the remote server is an option

vipaal,

I think looking into man chattr is a good option for this

vipaal,

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.

vipaal,

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

vipaal,

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.
