Solarpunk Unix modding

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 know that was partly joking but spacedust and herbluft is a really a good suggestion that I might use. Any more of those? :D

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.

green

he means modding to use less energy

GuilhermePelayo@slrpnk.net · 4 pts · 3y

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

rmicielski@slrpnk.net · 1 pts · 3y

Well, the software would have to change first

When you're done it'd be cool to have it posted on reddit's unixporn for some solarpunk propaganda

GuilhermePelayo@slrpnk.net · 4 pts · 3y

Of course! I'll post it here if it looks cool enough!
