Microsoft 14 października kończy wsparcie dla Windows 10 i namawia właścicieli około 240 milionów urządzeń, by je recyklingowali (wyrzucili?) i kupili nowe lapki czy pecetki. Nie da się zaktualizować do Windows 11 więc do kosza ...

No nie :)

Będzie wysyp fajnych maszyn dla Linuksa. Nie wyrzucaj, reinstaluj i używaj dalej.
To pójście ekosystemu Windows w stronę ekosystemu Androida. Producenci nie dostarczają nowej wersji OS, więc musisz kupić nowy telefon.
Jakimś dziwnym sposobem autorzy innych dystrybucji Android potrafią dostarczyć na te telefony nowe wersje. Przykładem LineageOs i wiele jego pochodnych, w tym mój ulubiony /e/Os.

Microsoft pozazdrościł producentom telefonów i próbuje tego samego z pecetami. Wyrzucić 3-letni fajny sprzęt i kupić nowy? Niedoczekanie.

Pamiętaj, kilkuletnie maszyny, czy to telefon, laptop czy blaszak, świetnie działają, można je naprawić, rozbudować, wymienić baterie, dodać ram czy szybszy dysk. Czy przeinstalować system operacyjny.

Sam na co dzień pracuję na laptopie, który ma ładnych kilka lat, dołożoną pamięć, nowy dysk, stację dokującą i 2 dodatkowe monitory. To samo telefony i tablety (mam ich kilka, ze względu na pracę). Drugi, zapasowy ThinkPad jest jeszcze starszy i świetnie działa (oba na linuksie). Podobnie serwer w domowym labie to starsza, świetna maszyna.

Nie daj się robić w balona.

Did a minor bit of organisational creativity!

You know when you get envelopes coming pre-printed to reply - only you don't _need_ to reply?

Trimmed off the flappy edges, to be one-sided notepaper. Then made holes to bundle them.

(If I'd had only a few, I'd imagine I might relabel them to send somewhere else, but there were too many for that.)

The thing that looks like a treasury tag is the reclaimed handle of a gift bag no longer elegant enough to have another gift travel in it :-)

Rest assured that all of us in South London are scouring our sheds and attics in case we have one of these to donate to this needy soul! #Recycle #Reuse #JustGiving #Neighbours #London

Screening today, one third complete. Though this cheap screen does not intend to be repaired the vibrator is great at cutting through the tiny nails that hold the frame in place. Screws replace them for easier future repairs.

@teruterubozu thinks I should get a calligraphy brush next, lol. She's just jealous of my zen like intentionality repairs.

Reclaimed with character: an 8’ toboggan turned shelf, pyramid bookcase, cable spool tables, and a Singer sewing base console. Each piece is handmade by Fox & Thistle Studio.

First bin assembled! The doggo was supervising and guarding against squirrels.

I'll probably store leaves in the second bin until I need the brown for the first bin. This is going to be super-lazy-composting where I dig up what's underneath to use - so basically a FIFO stack.

File under "It never hurts to ask!"

I'm putting together pallet-compost bins. To reuse/recycle, I asked a local business if I could have some. "Sure, we just throw them out" said the manager on duty and now I've got enough pallets for a two bin approach.

Hey there Mastadon Masterminds! Can you suggest a use for these plastic lids? We don't have the bottoms but we have four boxes of tops. Any creative ideas? #Reuse #MNastadon #Sustainability #DeGrowth

#Pilze als Baustoff? In einer umweltfreundlichen Bühnenproduktion der Neuköllner Oper setzen Studierende und Forschende der #TUBerlin und #UdKBerlin Pilzmyzel ein. Das nachhaltige Material ist auch für Möbel und Dämmstoffe nutzbar.

Das Musiktheaterstück „GEGENGIFT“ läuft noch bis 11.5. https://www.tu.berlin/go283864/

Helped a friend move today. Went to the tip. They are so organised here… I estimate we saved more than half of our junk from landfill by recycling or placing it in the “tip shop” #waste #landfill #reuse

Huomasin et heilan olkalaukku oli taas kulunut ja paikkauksen tarpeessa.

Heila sit kysyi että kannattaako sitä paikata jos se on kohta taas rikki.

Se on väärä kysymys, oikea kysymys on; onko se hyvä laukku? käytätkö sitä? haluatko jatkossakin käyttää sitä?

Jos vastaus kyllä niin kannattaa paikata vaikka joutuisi myöhemmin paikkaamaan lisää. #reuse #reduce #repair

Artic is the third luminaire in a series of light fixtures in which parts of a broken pressure washer are reused. The polybutylene terephthalate housing of the pressure washer’s electric motor has been repurposed as a lampshade.
