@vanderZwan The original core topic in permacomputing is the utopian idea that computer technology, including its production mechanisms, could work in a regenerative way in the biosphere. With the main questions being whether if it is possible at all, and what it would be like.

I genuinely believe it is possible, but it would require a lot of changes/reinventions even on the very basic material levels. Therefore, most "practical" permacomputing concentrates on extending the lifespans of existing hardware.
