🐢🚀 Ah yes, the groundbreaking #innovation of "fast tech" — a term so riveting it hasn’t been coined yet. Apparently, it takes a polynomial genius to suggest enabling #JavaScript, because using #Mastodon without it is like trying to run Windows on an abacus. 👏🖥️

has anyone coined the term "fast tech" yet? used in the same sense as "fast fashion" - stuff that's designed to be cheap and disposable, chasing short term fads and tends, built in wasteful quantities in full knowledge that many units will go to landfill without being bought.

TinyKVM: The Fastest Sandbox

TinyKVM can be used to sandbox regular Linux programs or programs with specialized APIs embedded into your servers.

"Att kalla en produkt för koldioxidneutral samtidigt som man bidrar till en ond cirkel av ”fast tech” – prylar som snabbt blir föråldrade och måste bytas ut – är som att plantera ett träd i en skog som brinner. Det blir mer av en symbolhandling än något som gör skillnad på riktigt. Apple borde istället fokusera på att göra sina produkter mer hållbara och reparerbara, så att de inte behöver bytas ut varje år."

Hej Siri, hur kan vi göra iPhones mer hållbara?

Idag släpper Apple sina nya produkter. Men bolagets gröna image kan inte längre dölja de enorma miljökostnader som deras ständiga lanseringar innebär för oss och planeten, skriver Peter Windischhofer, grundare av Refurbed.

Is  FastTech the new Fast Fashion? - Material Focus

‘FastTech’ is now the UK’s fastest growing e-waste stream, with 471 million items binned in the past year (90% of items bought are quickly binned).

Material Focus

We've sort of got to grips with the problems with #fastfashion, and while not completely resolved we can now acknowledge the issue(s) that lie behind it... now we need to take a look at #FastTech, whose products end up in #landfill leading to further #environmental consequences in the long-run.

The #righttorepair campaign hasn't really even touched this problem, even if its starting to gain traction for more established #technology.

We can't keep poisoning the #earth

Jedes Jahr ein neues Smartphone? Ist die Branche zu schnelllebig geworden?

Wer die neusten Funktionen der bevorzugten Smartphone-Marke nutzen möchte, muss seit Jahren immer häufiger in die Geldbörse greifen. Die Taktung bei der Veröffentlichung der aktuellen Generation aller bekannten Markenhandys ist erkennbar gestiegen, teilweise vergehen nur wenige Monate bis zum neusten Modell. Der Branchentrend legt jedem Verbraucher nahe, sich individuell mit Themen wie Nachhaltigkeit, dem Nutzen […]

Für mich war #FastTech eine gute Adresse für günstige Ersatzteile, wie z. B. Tankgläser.

Der chinesische Staat mit seinem Tabakmonopol fürchtet um die Profite aus der Tabaksucht und reguliert das Dampfen zu Tode. Innerhalb von China ist der Markt schon tot.
