Permacomputing

Just started shipping their (eyewateringly expensive) crowdsupply version https://www.crowdsupply.com/morpheans/sharpikeebo

Sources and Gerbers available so you could get a couple fabbed at JLPCB or fab of your choice fairly easily https://github.com/ccadic/sharpikeebo/tree/main/V1222

I'd be inclined to run it with an open hardware replacement for the Zero such as https://openkits.easyeda.com/project/detail/lctspi-rk3566-2g-16g

Gemini the HTTP alternative, not the AI crap.

If you bought your computer after 2010, there's most likely no reason to throw it out. By just installing an up-to-date Linux operating system you can keep using it for years to come.

The cheapest and most environmentally-friendly computer is the one you already own.

ed was based on using the teletype – the “persistent display” was the paper itself

What I really love is that when the teletype has finished printing off his little diary, Rex can simply tear it off and walk away, keeping it in his pocket, put on his wall. It’s produced a little physical artifact for him to carry around.

Hi I'm have a 20 year old laptop and every time I turn it on it has reset the clock and date to 2001 or whatever and I have to set it again before I can do anything. I haven't used it that often in recent years. Is there some part i could replace to get this working.

Also in general, is there other maintenance I should do to keep it working?

Hi everyone, I'm Valmond and I'm working on a decentralised sharing network based on reciprocity.

It's working but I haven't found a place where to showcase it/find followers/interested people. Would a decentralised, secure, FOSS, sharing system ; you share what ever you want with whom you want by sharing back, well would that kind of idea have a place here?

Cheers

Valmond

This is essentially a glorified article about not needing the latest and greatest, and limiting shortcomings with the right combinations of used components and software. Nothing groundbreaking, but hopefully represents a slowly shifting zeitgeist into saving energy and carbon emissions. The Researchers estimate their methods would reduce global emissions by 0.2%.
