On a previous job they reused old tablets to schedule appointments. The devices were on ethernet but ran Android 4.x. They used http to grab the appt URL. It was neatly implemented except they were riddled with vulnerabilities, and VLANs weren't set up correctly. All of this occurred in 2019 and the organization was a non-profit. Given energy crisis, e-ink would possibly save on electricity here. Though in their case b/w or b/w/r would suffice back then.
- vincnetas 4y agoWhen talking about saving electricity it's always useful to add amount of energy saved and in best case, monetary equivalent. Because yes it saves energy, but also if you drive to work without shoes it saves gas too, because your car is lighter. But inconveniences this (no shoes) creates are obvious.
