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

@Dariusmiles2123 @unix_joe I have a Librebooted Thinkpad X200s and even that is capable of being a daily driver.
The only reason you'd need newer than a quad-core intel 2nd/3rd is video edit and gaming. Probably heavy compiling too, but I haven't found them too slow.
