A classic article from the infamous solar powered LowTechMagazine; the author describes their journey and how they ended up on a laptop from 2006.

I disable javascript whenever I have to browse on old hardware and websites load fast as lightning. That being said, some websites simply do not work without javascript, but those websites kind of suck anyway.

Sabaidee, Welcome!

This is a community for promoting sustainability in tech and computing. This includes: understanding the impact that our tech/computing choices have on the environment; purchasing or re-using devices that are sustainable and repairable; how to properly recycle or dispose of old devices when it is beyond use; and promoting software and services that allow us to reduce our environmental impact in the long term, both at work and in our personal lives.

This isn't a competition, it's a reminder to stay grounded when making your decisions. Remember: The most sustainable device is the one that you are already using.

Rules:

  1. Stay on-topic. Everything from sustainable smartphones to data centers and the green energy that powers them is fair game.
  2. Be excellent to each other.
