@TimWardCam Something called industrial pollution too. Turning on and off your PC kills it quicker so it gets thrown out and more electronic stuff is made for you helping destroy the climate. Almost everything is a big disco ball, choose the facet you want to focus on, it's all mirrors

@GraeghosMIUS I think I've only ever thrown out computers because they've got to small and slow for the increasing demands of modern software; I don't think I've had one fail. (Apart from a second hand one that someone gave me that never really worked in the first place.)

Computers, I always give them away while they are still serviceable, but I don't think I've ever left a phone that someone else could use.
