  • RAM

    Jump

  • I used it until very recently. It's not that bad, unless you're one of those people who keeps dozens of opened tabs forever. My experience was pretty smooth, to be honest. I did some academic works on such a machine and often had several tabs opened at once, each with a different paper opened, along with google drive and stuff opened at the same time, and got no issues.

  • It's a tolino vision 2. Technically, it runs android 4 under the hood, but I would need to tinker with it via adb to run something else, and the small storage space available makes this not so appealing. I'd prefer to leave the complexity to the server and do the reading inside the browser in the ereader.

    Jump

  • That's an interesting setup, but my ereader probably doesn't support the tinkering needed to install syncthing on it (it's a refurbrished tolino vision 2) and the available memory is too low.

  • I will check them both, thank you. I don't think my device supports koreader, but maybe I can read directly from the browser.

  • Funny how you need more and more technical knowledge to go deeper into privacy, until the last level, which is basically giving up on technology itself.

  • That would be reuse, not recycle ;)

    But that's a nice suggestion

  • Which distro would you install on a celeron 2gb ram laptop for a lay person to use?

    Jump

  • I assumed a x64. Debian (the distro mx linux is based on) offers multiarch support, so i just had to enable it by running:

     
        
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 
sudo apt update

    Then, to install 32-bit firefox, I first uninstalled it and then installed the 32-bit version:

     
        
sudo apt remove firefox-esr  
sudo apt install firefox-esr:i386

    With the standard 64 bit version, the browser would struggle with just 2 or 3 tabs, and with the 32 bit version, she can use like 10 tabs without problems

  • Or I could recycle it

    Could you really? E-waste recycling is a great lie made so that people don't get remorse over throwing away their devices. Electronics are too complex, diverse and full of toxic stiff to be property recycled.

    If anyone wants to dive more into this, there has been some projects where people from higher income countries put tracking devices inside e-waste before sending to "recycling", to find out where they end up. Spoiler: in poorer countries, to either be scattered around, thrown into a landfill, or be scavenged by underpaid people without any protection equipment.

    Do you have some tips for that?

  • There are plenty of distros for very low end pcs, but they tend to require more tech skills to use. I have experience with a friend in a similar situation. I installed with mx linux for her and she is liking it. The performance is pretty reasonable and it comes with various tools that make it easier for people with less tech skills. The only extra thing I did was install the 32 bit version of firefox, because it makes a huge difference in low ram devices.
