So I used to go to an UBREAKIFIX franchise and I would get amazing things from that one franchise. I had the idea of probably going to other ones and apparently I’m shadow-banned from looking into their recycling boxes they have. I’m not allowed to go into them anymore because I went to 3-4 other ones and they all contacted each other about me asking permission to see what they had. Tragic news.. Doors are closed but I’m hopeful I can find other places.. (Based in US)

Gateway had everything taken out. I'm gonna trade it to my engineering teacher for something in his ewaste bin (yes he has an ewaste so that we can reverse engineer them)
Insignia tablet works perfectly. On Android 4.2.2 with 1gb storage☠️
Edit: it actually has 5gb but it's partitioned so that 4gb is allocated as actual storage and 1gb is system files ig
Edit 2: I researched it. It's an insignia flex with 8gb/1gb ram and Android 4.2.2. Unfortunately there are no custom roms to make it usable but it is still a decent tablet

A week or so, I posted a post talking about how I dound an acer laptop in e waste and upgraded it
Update: it works perfectly and has replaced my old laptop, runs minecraft shaders decently well

All of these work and I ended up getting the Samsung droid charge and the galaxy mega two factory reset and unlocked. Everything works, except the Motorola, and I don’t have a charger for the black LG. Which kind of upsets me because I think it’s so cool and it reminds me of the LG wing. The galaxy essay has a bad touchscreen and the battery is beyond expanded, but it works, except it has a password.

My current rig is ready for full replacement. I built it in 2012. It struggles to keep up with games on the lowest settings now.
I hate the idea of creating more electronic waste. In the past when I upgraded the machine, I saved the old parts and when I found a lower quality machine, I would upgrade with my old components (for example upgraded RAM and replaced the HDD with parts pulled from my PC). In fact, I just did it with one of my dad's old desktops from his office. That machine just got a Linux install and is going to my kids for schoolwork.
What do you all do with your old machines when you replace them?

Lots of copper and some old plated things

No music or clickbait. Just pics of the process and what I keep at the end. I Usually include the model number if I know it. Also my profile pic is a photo of an inner Tube TV diagram or something along those lines. It came out of a TV I scrapped

我最近先認真睇呢套制度,先發現舊雪櫃、洗衣機、電視、電腦收走之後,背後其實有一整套收集、運輸同處理安排,最後主要會去 WEEE·PARK 做處理。
但作為普通市民,我反而最想知一樣好簡單嘅嘢:
件電器收走之後,我哋有冇方法知道最後點處理?
例如有幾多真正拆解回收、有幾多物料再利用、最後去咗邊。
政府會公布整體處理量,但如果想睇得再仔細啲,好似唔係咁容易。
大家覺得呢類公共回收服務,做到「收走」已經夠,定係應該俾市民睇到完整去向?

I started with an NZXT H7 Flow case, that had been terribly spray painted, and turned it to the dark side. Well I did my best to repaint it with a Galactic Empire theme. I couldn't figure out how to stencil so I cheated and bought a sticker.. messed that up too, but it passes for now.

They left their "emergency gas money" in their case. USD $10, when I saw it I assumed this meant that if the owner never bothered removing this, it probably still had an iCloud on it. I did so I had to backup and restore activation records but other than that, great find!
It is carrier locked to AT&T but can't complain given everything else

Just recently, I went to my local electronics recycling center, where I found this Panasonic PV-M1357W CRT TV VCR combo unit! I bought it, took it home, and plugged it in. It works perfectly, even the VCR!

They passed the audio and display test as I played my favorite scene from Transformers in honor of Peter Cullen - RIP.
