One suggestion, buy a product for someone who could use it but doesn’t have the resources. As a kid who loved to tinker and had no money this would have meant the world to me at that time.
- j05h 6y agoWas thinking the same...school donations maybe?
- Vinnl 6y agoMany libraries also have programs for children interested in tech, might be good to check with a local one.
- ssivark 6y agoI know what you mean; I was in a similar situation growing up. One very unfortunate phenomenon among most of the kids I see today is that they are so swamped by “structured” activities that they have no time to “tinker” for the heck of it. They feel pressured that all their time ought to show returns on their resume/exams/applications/etc :-/ I would love to enable a few kids and engage with them so I might at least vicariously get some of the fun of tinkering.
- renegading 6y agoI think Pine sells their products at cost so that won't benefit them directly.
- Lex-2008 6y agoStore doesn't load for me right now, so I might be wrong, but previously on pages of some devices I saw something like this written in a small print: "Pine64 offers this device at this price as a service to the community and doesn't make any profit out of this". So maybe not a final device like pine(book/phone/tab), but one of single-board computers?
