what is permacomputing?
One nice definition of Permacomputing according to Fiber Space:
"Said with tongue in cheek, permacomputing is a radically slightly more sustainable approach to computer and network technology inspired by permaculture. It is both a concept and a small nascent community of practice-oriented around issues of resilience and regenerativity in digital technology derived, among others, from permaculture principles. In a time where computing epitomises industrial waste, permacomputing encourages the maximising of hardware lifespans, minimising energy use and focussing on the use of already available computational resources."
