I repurposed my 2008 ThinkPad as a server, saving it from the trash for yet another year!

When plastics were first introduced to consumers it was sold as indestructible, it will never wear out, never degrade! People were actually concerned at the time, why anyone buy disposable products that never break down, won’t they just pile up forever?
After much lobbying the concept of recycling plastics was introduced to help consumers stop worrying about all this indestructible waste and help push the sales of cheap plastic products. Your mom has the right idea, not buying it in the first place is the only way to drive demand down.

Fixed your code :D
Debian Bookworm, I like to live on the edge. The extremely stable edge.
How is the sequel?
Maybe Milford Sound, NZ. It’s all >500m cliffs with waterfalls on either side of glass smooth black water.
Milford Sound, if you are brave enough, check out the full 10k*4k version. There is a kayak on the bottom left for scale.
The eye-brain system is totally analog. The shortest perceivable events have to do with how bright they are and how depleted the photo-receptors are in your retina. You could see a single 1/1000s pulse in a dark room but a 1kHz square wave would appear to be a continuous light.
WiFi/Cell phones give you cancer. Both devices operated in the microwave spectrum, at or below 1 watt of power. That’s about the same amount of power as the flashlight on your phone but in a wavelength so unenergetic that you can’t even see it. You could put the phone in your mouth and get absorb less energy than just walking outside into the sun.
apt just works, damnit! If you don’t make a FrankenDeb install everything is sudo apt install get-stuff-done.
Buy a ThinkPad. They still make 10lb beasts with 3 m.2 slots and a dedicated GPU!

Anything that can cut down on the ability to monetize a platform is worth it.
Debian laptop, NAS and home server, SteamOS on the Deck, and W10 on my gaming PC because VR is still kinda janky with Linux :(
Running Zoneminder so my GF can keep an eye on her shop from her phone (without paying someone a subscription).
