I thought this video was rather interesting, because at 12:27, the presenter crunches the numbers to find out how many years it would take for a new computer purchase to be more environmentally friendly (in regards to total CO2 expended) compared to using a less efficient used model.
Depending on the specific use case, it could take as little as 3 years to breakeven in terms of CO2 if both systems were at max power draw forever, and as long as 30 if the systems are mostly at idle.
I was surprised to find a Jellyfin client for Samsung Tizen tv’s at all (despite it being a major brand) - I hadn’t considered this may be a client issue. I’ll take a look, thanks!
