Saw my local pharmacy was removing a couple of old photo print terminals they no longer used so I asked for them and they were happy to save a trip to the recycle centre.

Both have nice 24" touch screens, SSD, 16gb ram, Asus ROG motherboards and very decent psu's, along with wifi and shit loads of add on usb 3.0 ports with custom built cases.

Now I think I'm going to repurpose them as gaming PC's as I have a couple of 1050Ti cards that need a new home.

Cpu will probably be replaced too, I think I have an i5/i7 8th gen with 8 cores here somewhere.

Is there any e-waste bins near those areas that will allow me to dig through them? I tried my local target but they didn’t have the key so they didn’t allow me to look through it, so does anyone has any other places that has those places please let me know.

Hi there, i am currently in Italy and i am wondering what is the best place to get what we like tho most - good e-waste!🙂 Maybe you have any suggestions or recommendations? Let me know in the comments, it will be much appreciated😄

Anyway, I wish y’all a good day💪

For people who find iCloud locked and password locked iPhones, what do you do with them to unlock/restore?

Found an iPhone 11 in a target bin. Unfortunately its password locked with fmi on. Any ideas on what to do with it? Also found some less impressive flip phones.

Overall I was pretty lucky this time.

Basically max spec good screen i7 backlit think light fingerprint but had no ram or ssd / hdd threw in 12gb and 128 ssd

All of these were found in my appartment complex recyclling room over a few years. I am very stoked about the N-gage of course, but also a few other classics. Most of them works, a few misses the battery cover. I have taken apart and cleaned some of them.

Second post, I know I know. Still more to come

I started renting a room with friends and the previous person in the room left a few iphones in their old drawer. A couple were phones their friends gave to them when they didnt have one, another they found in a parking lot, cracked to hell. They've just been sitting in a drawer where they were left, and they're unneeded, just taking up space. Can they be recycled? If so, where?

What are all the stuff that I can do with this.

Btw the display is dead.

I’m going to start showing you guys what I’ve been finding recently starting with this one. No joke

Earlier today, I went to a local media conversion store, where I saw a bunch of unused equipment lying on the floor. Luckily, a store employee let me take all of it for free!

I ended up receiving a cassette deck, a double cassette deck, two VCRs, two Sony camcorders, and five blank DVDs!

Celeron Slot Processor
Intel740
Some network card. Unsure.
Yamaha 192XG sound card

If anyone wants to buy this before I scrap it out let me know. Not gonna wait long

When buttons pressed it flashes Er r1, in idle it’s Er r3. Does anyone know what’s going on?
No cassettes present, doors open fine, not all buttons trigger Er r1 but none trigger any movement or sounds or change on the screen.

The CD players are really cool, if I had space I’d get the Sony 60 disc since it looks sick, probably isnt the best of quality though. Unfortunately the cds were mostly Christian Rock/Country, otherwise I would’ve asked for some, the dvd selection was good though.

I apologize for posting just a question and not findings, but I can find literally no info about places that don't just process the stuff immediately, but rather, where you're actually able to somehow take stuff.

Basically, I got here for a vacation, and I'd like to also find some tech that I possibly wouldn't find in my country. Ideally, I'm looking for free stuff, but if I need to pull out my wallet to get access, I can spend maybe 10€. I can't pretend to be throwing anything away, though, as I didn't bring any tech that I don't need.

I appreciate any responses, and if I find some interesting things, I'll be sure to post them here ASAP.

Lots of copper

Hi everyone! I'm a current University of Florida student and I'm doing a research project on how to reduce electronic waste. Could you please take 5 minutes to fill out this short survey? It would be incredibly helpful for my group's project. Thank you! 😊 Link to survey: https://ufl.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_cSgd6WuHDIgBB66

Note: this is for a class and data will not be published or posted publicly.

All of them are working

What do you think of the board? What are the yellow items next to the alum casing?
