I love this post my @m2m
It feels like a treasure map or secret recipe found in a journal. Or like visiting an independent scientist in their home-built garage lab. Sharing how to really own and thoughtfully set-up a *personalized* computer that serves the human by showing the real benefit of "outdated" but still useful software. And not just useful but in some ways better. Many helpful details pointing the way to a process for folks to follow.

Update. Here's a great example of reusing older #data, this time for the original purpose. Scientists retrieved unpublished data from the 1977 "Wow!" signal captured by the #Arecibo radio telescope as part of the search for extraterrestrial intelligence (#SETI), reanalyzed it with modern tools, and improved our understanding of where it came from and what might have caused it.

Ah, so that's where the old clothes go we put in the textile recycling bin.

The ones that some company promises get "reused" or "recycled". I guess burning them on another continent counts as one of those.

Been wondering what the truth is behind the corporate copywriting.

Seeing how reviving old PCs is a hugely important thing to use Linux for, it's really strange to me how difficult it is to find out which distros works best on old hardware!

People say many things, but it's hard to find real benchmarks. Tried Lubuntu and Zorin Core on one laptop I have here, and it was not OK. AntiX seems fast enough, but unfortunately too nerdy to give to a non-nerd.

A reminder. Recycling should be what we do when we’ve tried all these other options. #ClimateAction#Reduce#ReUse#Recycle#Climate

An old meme of a sign post with the following options:

Refuse Single Use
Reduce Consumption
Reuse Everything
Refurbish Old stuff
Repair Before you Replace
