The Slow Tech Uprising is here.

We’re building a movement alongside other climate focused brands, artists, thinkers, and doers.

The Slow Tech Uprising Summit brings together leading voices from tech, fashion, sustainability, and culture who are done with the culture of planned obsolescence, forced upgrades, and design built to break.

Limited edition

Meet the computer we’re not supposed to sell you (anymore).

We’re fighting planned obsolescence by refurbishing laptops that were made obsolete by Big Tech blocking their software updates. Why? ‘Cause more often than not, obsolete tech ends up in the landfill as e-waste. So, we’ve replaced outdated Windows 10 software with ChromeOS Flex — an up-to-date, secure operating system — and are giving it away.

Un-plan obsolescence

Meaningful pursuits

There’s more than one way to challenge the culture of fast tech.
