@Satiah @kde A quick look online turned up some results (see, e.g., https://www.xda-developers.com/asus-rog-phone-5-bootloader-unlock-tool-kernel-source/), but nothing I can help with.

That's a shame you are so far away. Maybe you'd be interested in organizing an installation event yourself 500kms from Berlin? 🙂

Here's some info about our plans for worldwide events: https://floss.social/@be4foss/112688236048262165

@MylesRyden @kde

I agree! You may want to check out projects like ComputerTruhe (@computertruhe) and Free Geek.

They have been active in upcycling hardware with Linux for some time now.

If you know of others, let us know in the replies.

@kde

Old hardware with new software at "Long Night of the Sciences" (#LNDW24) with German Environment Agency (#UBA).

The oldest: 21 years old with #HaikuOS and up-to-date version of #GCompris for children to play.

The newest: 11 years old with #Fedora #KDE Spin.

In 1st image you can see the #KDEEco handbook (2023) in #Okular:

In the 2nd the e-book "20 Years of KDE (2016) in #Arianna:

Amigurumi #Konqi dolls and a #Gnu had fun with us too!

@phoenix Regarding the assumed operating life of devices:

"For the purposes of our assessment, years of use, which are based on first owners, are modeled to be four years for macOS and tvOS devices and three years for iOS and watchOS devices. Most Apple products last longer and are passed along, resold, or returned to Apple by the first owner for others to use."

Hope that helps!

@phoenix It looks to be statistical inference based on sampled and modelled data. On p. 57 of the report: "To model customer use, we measure the power consumed by a product while it is running in a simulated scenario. Daily usage patterns are specific to each product and are a mixture of actual and modeled customer use data."

The number of devices for the statistical inferences is: "In fiscal year 2018, we sold 217,722,000 iPhone devices, 43,535,000 iPad units, and 18,209,000 Mac products."

KDE Eco's stand with FSFE and Bits & Bäume Berlin will be here on Sunday from 11-19h (as far as I can tell):
