Most of us have some nook or cranny stuffed with old electric appliances and devices. The average UK household is believed to contain at least 20 unused gadgets.

The Eco Waste and Recycling Wizard from London, UK

After a few days of using this technique, and trying to chop the cold #porridge into finer and finer bits to make it soak and blend better with fresh water before reheating, I suddenly realised I had a better solution at hand.

And because it hadn't been #donated away, and also because it was now in a spot where I could easily find and retrieve it …

… I was able to start using my very own handheld, easy to use and clean #PorridgeTenderiser to make reheated porridge have the perfect as-if-freshly-cooked #texture!

Another banner #TreasureHuntTuesday. A few things I got were new (bread slicer, yet another cocktail smoker, a cold brew coffee maker) but also found some good Pyrex, metal pans that fit my air fryer, quirky coffee mugs and some nice glassware. I'll probably make a leather case for the smoker and offer it at my next crafts fair. #reuse #repurpose #thrift

I #reuse and #repurpose this 3d printed black part that is no longer needed for the robot is was made for. Feels good to save it.

Just installed #Bazzite on a recycled Surface Pro 3. Now let's see how it goes...

Dear @linuxmint, our initiative ( @laptoprevive ) collects old laptops and repurposes them for students who need them for educational purposes.

As a volunteer, I see every day how well your distro runs on older hardware — thank you for making this possible ❤️
