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.

    It’s the other half of the home server that’s giving me docker trouble, the *arr stack; I hadn’t actually gotten to the stage of trying to set Kodi up yet

      What problem are you having? Docker is very straightforward, just copy the compose file and run a command.
