Once you're spending more than $2,000 on a 5-pound laptop, most people would be better off buying multiple computers—an inexpensive thin-and-light laptop for battery life and portability, plus a good midrange desktop for performance and comfort.

Does this guy live in the real world? This sounds like sarcasm, but it's not.

Double your e-waste with this one simple trick 👍

It's so frustrating to be able to see the negative externalities in plain sight and be unable to firmly advise against them because the system considers them free in order to make something of immediate importance to the person possible. E.g. make ends meet by spending $500 less on a laptop you need today by generating more ewaste in the process.
