| ====== Permacomputing ====== | ====== Permacomputing ====== |
| |
| Sam Zeloof of Carnegie Melon is making homebrew computer ships | Borrowing from the philosophy of [[permaculture]] farming, there is the idea of [[https://wiki.xxiivv.com/site/permacomputing.html|permacomputing]] which is based on frugality, salvage, and considering collapse scenarios. |
| |
| https://mobile.twitter.com/szeloof | ==== Software ==== |
| |
| | Radical open-source OS and software aiming in an inverse direction from popular computing (3D, GUIs, fancy graphics card, heavy power use, etc). Essentials which one can use in ultra-low-impact or [[https://100r.co/site/off_the_grid.html|off the grid]] scenarios. |
| | |
| | * [[https://collapseos.org|Collapse OS]] is creating "Bootstrap post-collapse technology" so basically a computer for after modern society collapses. |
| | * [[https://100r.co/site/uxn.html|uxn]] ecosystem is a personal computing playground |
| | |
| | ==== Hardware ==== |
| | |
| | Radical new open-source hardware devices meant to be tinkered, repaired, modified or entirely fabricated in a decentralized fashion. |
| | |
| | * [[https://mntre.com/media/reform_md/2020-05-08-the-much-more-personal-computer.html|MTN Reform]] a fully open source laptop created for intensive tinkering + upgradablity in mind. |
| | |
| | ==== Components ==== |
| | |
| | Fresh starts and approaches to making basic components for computing in open and sustainable ways. |

| | |
| | ==== DIY Devices ==== |
| | |
| | Devices which allow for a full computing experience but can be fabricated with minimal efforts, parts, etc. |
| | |
| | * [[Mini Computer Easel]] |
| | * [[https://n-o-d-e.net/node_mini_server3.html|Mini Server Raspberry Pi 4]] by N-O-D-E |

| | ==== Hacks ==== |
| | |
| | A nifty hack posted by [[https://chrisbeckstrom.com|Chris Beckstrom]] is how to get [[https://planet.chrisbeckstrom.com/notice/AGqnyT0HMzJZIWVkLg|rca video output from a #raspberrypi zero]]. In Chris' words "do a tiny bit of soldering and there ya go. Really nice way to avoid a million adapters if your destination is analog!" |
