In this talk, I will explore how the hacker ethos—defined by open knowledge sharing, bold experimentation, and collective problem-solving—is essential for addressing global challenges, particularly those related to the lack of regenerative resource management.
I will take you on a journey from crucial mineral mining hubs to electronic waste dumpsters, uncovering the intricate connections between code, hardware, open-source principles, and social and environmental justice.
You will gain a new perspective on how the KDE community’s work is shaping a more resilient and regenerative future, and discover ways to extend these principles to create a positive impact beyond the tech world.
KDE is an open-source community developing free software for desktop and mobile, including the powerful Plasma desktop environment. Join the KDE community to contribute, learn, and shape the future of open-source software!
