I feel like I always think of solar punk as a macro thing where a lot has to change but there are still smaller wins we can implement, what have you been doing?

I reduced power usage significantly by running a small e-ink monitor for reading/writing and office tasks. It uses so little energy that I can't even notice a difference in the power meter.

Also, for the people that keep the pc on most of the time, you're probably going to have the same overall experience if you activate auto suspend

Never thought to use an e-ink display as a monitor, great idea!

Also 100% worth using auto suspend :D
