@ArpadLinks @greenpeace I think the latter ideas won't be implementable legally, but whyt you mean with the former already exists with many #AllInOnePCs, #ThinClients and #EmbeddedComputer|s:

  • Low power, space-efficient computers that barely sip energy whilst being fully useable as Desktops.

Besides #surplus'd Hardware and frightingly-expensive for their computational power #Embedded systems there's @frameworkcomputer which sell you their #mainboards, #CoolerMaster sells a matching low-profile #case which allegedly has #VESA-Mounts, so you can easily screw that on the rear of a monitor and have a cheap #AiO #Desktop that is also #repairable.

  • I hope that comes close to what you're looking for.

Japan's current account surplus reached 2.258 trillion yen in April, falling short of market forecasts and signaling potential headwinds for the nation's external balance.

#PolitischeKommunikation zu den Auswirkungen dieser Vorhaben

Die #SoziooekonomischeUngleichheit wird jedenfalls noch weiter verschärft und dies vor dem Hintergrund geschwächter Kommunen

Sprechen Akteure der #Bundespolitik noch mit ihren #Kolleg*innen aus der #Kommunalpolitik

Sieht aktuell nicht so aus... 🤔

  • I thought the glare was excessive due to the lights, but then again I'm not gonna complain more about it. Noone expects you to have a fancy mattebox with turntable to make some professional product photo.

Also even if people don't have a donor to transplant a screen assembly from or don't feel comfortable fiddling with eDP cables they could just remove the screen and have a compact AiO Desktop.

  • If it has like a "full function" #USBc port with #PowerDelivery than this can result in a sleek desktop that also looks good and doesn't require much space. Ideal if the battery is busted and a replacement isn't worth it! I've seen those in like #RepairShops where they basically setup some #MacbookPro that way as a DFU machine to reflash / reinstall other #Macs.

I think it's a necessity that we as #TechLiterates propagate the need to #UseLonger and the #RightToRepair as essential, given that #tech inherently is expensive in terms of #resources and that avoiding #eWaste and #Upcycling is an act of #EnvoirmentalProtection.

  • Tho make shure to safely remove any "#DangerPillow|s" and handing it over to the relevant #recycling provider(s)...

If I had the necessary €€€€€ I'd literally start my own "#upcycling" #business, even employ some folks collecting all the #surplus'd #Windows10 machines and just cleaning, wiping, repasting, fixing and selling them as cheap #used #PC|s for those that kinda need something to do their casual "#office", #LightGaming and #MediaConsumption.

  • I mean people are surprised how zippy even old hardware can be with just few tweaks (more RAM, a fresh SSD, cleaning it of dust bunnies and repasting the cooler with some quality (longlife #ThermalPaste, like #ArcticMX4) "#ThermalGrease" (that costs like €1/g in a 20g syringe and a #RepairShop can easily go through one in a shift)...

#GoFundMe #tech #surplus #ArsTechnica

Just read an article that American Science & Surplus is having some money problems, and setup a GoFundMe to raise some money. It's neat site, and a genuine treasure in the sea of commerce sameness.

Checkout the article and site. Both are worth a look whether or not one wishes to donate.

Saw some bandsaw tunable UHF band pass filters at a hamfest.
Did not buy any, as I already have one or two waiting for their date with the bandsaw.

Picture of three black Celwave made six cavity flat pack filters for 380 - 385 MHz, with 390 - 395 MHz stop band.
Pictured with slight rain drizzle on them.

@nixCraft +9001%

If I had the €€€€€ to start a company I'd be haulin' around collecting #surplus'd #Windows10 / #Windows11incompatible hardware, put on #Linux and flip it for profit as cheap computers to the masses.

Btw, princess auto (the Markham one, at least) has very basic but not terrible soprano ukuleles for $35.

They're Hola ones that sell on Amazon for $50+. These have Amazon ASIN numbers on the box, so they're probably overstock/returns

In his post taking aim at #Canada, #Trump again cited a figure he framed as a “subsidy” the #UnitedStates gives its neighbor. The number he gave, $200 billion, appears to be a reference to the US’ #TradeDeficit with Canada. But that is vastly inflated: Last year, the #US had a $63.3 billion trade deficit with Canada, according to US official data. The US ran a trade #surplus with Canada if you excludes Canadian #oil exported to America.

1 BMO: #S&P500 #futures down 0.8% after President #Trump announced 100% #tariffs on #foreign-made #movies. This extends the #tradewar into the #digital realm and a sector in which the #U.S. runs a sizeable #trade #surplus. 🧵 #markets #stocks #equities

@tante not only that, but I literally will refuse to buy, sell, use or even look at any device eith a "#CopilotKey" and/or marketed as #Copilot+ or having #Windows11 preinstalled to begin with!

If I had the €€€€€€ necessary to do it I'd start an #upcycling business (likely as cooperative) just to collect all the #surplus'd machines and put modern #Linux on them and sell those at rock-bottom pricing.

The German #Industry & #Trade Assn issued a public warning on #tariffs. “Germany has the largest export #surplus of all major #trading countries,” the assn reported. “This situation calls for double caution in trade policy measures that could lead to countermeasures.”
