I don’t know about the EWaste part, I own a 2015 MacBook Pro and that thing is immortal! Still runs as smooth as the day I got it and it’s seen a lot of abuse.

Don’t know of many other brands that have this type of longevity. Out of the many laptops and PC’s that I owned, non lasted this long.

How could you be so heartless? How is he supposed to afford his second super yacht?

+1 for Void Linux

😂

I have a crappy old laptop and I wanted to extend its life and usability by installing a resource light OS on it. I decided on Void Linux and proceeded to try it out in a VM on my MacBook before I installed it on the potato laptop.

I know I could emulate it using UTM but I figured that attempting a chroot installation would be a nice learning experience. I also haven’t seen much guides on it online — especially for aarch64 machines — and figured I could contribute and fill some of the void (pun not intended but very welcome).

If anyone is looking for an arm64 build, feel free to use my docker images.

If you want to build it on your own otherwise, feel free to use the following script.
