For oleds, it makes a difference and not an insignificant number of smartphones today use OLED screens.

However, if the microwatt-hour of battery saved by browsing a shitty website of a shitty company for a few minutes saves the planet is another story...

Bye bye Garmin, hello Polar (from Finland)

OPs particular watch (and many others, Garmin included) also supports Galileo, Glonass and Qzss. Same goes for smartphones. The term "GPS" these days is used for all kinds of satellite based positioning, not exclusively the American one.

And I think there's nothing wrong with a little spite in these times. I'd rather my money go to an european company than to an american one, even though some of that money goes to asia further down the supply chain (which it does for almost any electronics, no matter where the company is based)

But I agree your comment about EU production!

Which funnily enough, has bridges to Signal, Whatsapp, Discord, Telegram and some more, meaning you wouldn't have to have as many other clients installed to chat with contacts on those platforms

two pc's to one tv split screen?

Make sure the device you pick up has low latency. Not sure if you can find specs like that in the spec sheets. For watching video, latency is not an issue, but when gaming, you want as little time as possible to go by between you pressing a button and the thing showing up on the screen.
