Hello everybody!! This is my first post on this instance, glad to be here! So this is a bit of a tangent from most topics I saw here but I wanted to get the opinion of people that’s immersed in the aesthetic of solarpunk.

I’m modding debian (linux) to create a sort of solarpunk software aesthetic. For this I take any suggestions you might have, backgrounds, color palettes small placeholders text anything.

    I guess solarpunk modding should include radical energy saving.

        radical energy s/safing/saving/ = low power usage

        undervolt, disable cores, default scaling governor to power save, aggressive sleep, hybrid sleep and so forth

          Decreasing peak speed generally makes tasks take longer, which means a worse duty cycle.

          Finish fast and go to deepest sleep possible is the most energy efficient strategy for (embedded) computing in general.

          Yeah it said safing when I read it and I thought it was just a word I wasn’t familiar with. Ok that’s a cool constraint that I might use
