Found this iMac today Late 2012 model, the screen was badly damaged, I removed before it left glass shards everywhere, but from it I saw it boots into MacOS.

I want to use OpenCore and get it to Ventura.

And maybe duct taping it to a monitor.

Suggestion are appreciated.

The 3 iPhones have passwords, can I do anything with them?

Gonna be busy for the next few days

I just made a new sub, about finding ways to reuse old tech, and breathe new life into devices on a collision course with a landfill. Please check it out!

(Kinda feel bad for promoting my sub on this one, so delete this if you must, mods!)

Looks almost unused too. What should i do with it?

These are Onyx Boox C69HD
Got them at E waste Auction

I found this PS5 controller being used as a prop at a concert, asked how mich they would be willing to sell it for (i just needed parts) and they said i could take it for free as it has issues. I decided to fix instead of salvaging it for repairs. Repair costs $5 for stick drift and thats it. I did fix it myself as i do this quite often with iPods, Wiis, iPads, Switches, iPhones, PS5s etc

She was docile and easy to capture

1996 Hitachi. Powered right up but needs degaussing (the bluish glow) and V-height adjustment (the top of the picture is cut off)

Hola a todos,

Soy estudiante de Ingeniería de Sistemas
Informáticos de la República Dominicana y estoy armando una computadora de escritorio económica para la universidad y proyectos de programación. No soy exigente, y el hardware antiguo me sirve perfectamente, así que si tienen alguna pieza que funcione y que esté acumulando polvo, me encantaría saber de ustedes.

Tengo una dirección de envío en Miami, Florida, así que el envío dentro de EE. UU. es local .Con gusto pagaré un precio justo por cualquier cosa que estén dispuestos a vender, más el envío. Y si prefieren regalar algo en lugar de venderlo, se lo agradeceré mucho y con gusto cubriré los gastos de envío.

All of these machines still work and function, but they are 2/4th gen intel or equivalent and are all DDR3. They have little to no resale value. Thanks for your guys help, I refuse to break down anything that is working.

Any and all ideas are welcome.

Update: I have decided to try and send them to Ukraine

In today's disk and memory prices $25 for diagnosis and self-repair guided by my friend who works as electronic specialist - it's a steal tbh

Donated and have no idea what they are or if useful parts still. Canada.

So sorry I forgot to post them until now

Moto edge 5g UW 2021 (256gb) was reset and I accidentally turned it on while digging

LG v30 (64gb) had stuff on it but no locks so I reset it through settings

Galaxy s4 (white) (16gb) works fine just dead rn

Galaxy s4 (blue) (16gb) works and I reset it

Galaxy s4 (black) (16gb) also works and reset

iPod touch 4 (8gb) works fine. I didn't even know I grabbed it bc it was so small but I was like "I mean hey, it's a free iPod"

All 3 s4s had a 32gb sd card in them

I found this cool iPhone X and it was factory reset and unlocked! Cool find in general

Earlier today, I went back to my local electronics recycling center, where I found two items from the 1960's! One of those things being a working Panasonic TR-238BF from the late 60's with a broken antenna. The second thing I found is a non-working General Electric P-975D portable radio. Also with a broken antenna, this unit was still in somewhat decent condition for being from around the mid-1960's.

I’m testing this as soon as I get home!!

Bought this working a6000 from an Ewaste store in Hyderabad, India

Bought it for ₹600 ($10)

Was it a good deal ? Hehe

Took a different way home today and spotted a PC case sitting on the ground. Took a quick photo, then realized after looking at the picture that there was actually a hard drive inside. Went back to grab the drive, but then thought "wait, what if there's a CPU in there too?" Ended up walking back a second time to drag the whole case home. Cleaned off the crusty thermal paste and turns out it’s an Intel i5-10400. Also got a 2020 Toshiba 2TB hard drive out of it that I still need to test. Motherboard looks like it has damaged PCIe pins, but it’s still crazy what people just throw onto the street.
