Although capitalism could provide us with used laptops for decades to come, the strategy outlined above should be considered a hack, not an economical model. It’s a way to deal with or escape from an economic system that tries to force you and me to consume as much as possible. It’s an attempt to break that system, but it’s not a solution in itself. We need another economical model, in which we build all laptops like pre-2011 Thinkpads. As a consequence, laptop sales would go down, but that’s precisely what we need. Furthermore, with today’s computing efficiency, we could significantly reduce the operational and embodied energy use of a laptop if we reversed the trend towards ever higher functionality.

In the backend I have a database of Bulgarian podcasts shows. The database is updated every 15 min. I had to built it as its not easy to find good Bulgarian podcasts in large podcast directories. Aside of this search engine same database is used by an Android app which loads and plays random episodes from the database helping people discover new and interesting shows.

An API to query my database of Bulgarian podcasts. It can be used to feed podcast players or to embed in web sites. Example usage on one of my sites to show last 10 released Bulgarian podcast' episodes -> https://govorenefekt.com/last-ten/
