I appreciate you for preventing eWaste by reusing 🤩 that is awesome! I myself use the old macbookpro and iMacs from my father running Linux :D it’s great to live in a time where one can get such powerful computing devices for free 😇 But for watching movies and series, I really appreciate higher resolution and don’t feel satisfied if it is less than 1080 (more if we talking 25" plus)

To be honest, I just love reusing old stuff and giving it new meaning ☺️. And fixing stuff too. Sure, they will eventually be worthless, but I try and extend their life as much as possible ☺️.

Regarding the movies thing, each to his own 🤷 😉. I don't judge. Hell, even I sonetimes download 1080p and watch that on my TV, but it's mostly a special case scenario, like some good movie I've wanted to watch for a long time, but never got around to it, or something like.
