Dumpster treasures still better than what a lot of people use now!!

[mickholling]

I still remember the days of harvesting parts from dumped gear and i still do it now. I pull stuff from the bins repair and send it on its way renewed. Gives me a nice feeling. But sadly not as often as it was.

I suppose with the pandemic a lot of staff who had desktops will have been issued with new laptops so they can more easily work from home...

[SeanBZA]

Easy enough to go grab one of the others in the same case, and swap power supplies, likely thy are identical in spec, and you probably will not even need a screwdriver to change them out.

It's probably cheaper to rent an office in that building and loot the dumpster room than to buy those electronics yourself.

[AndreasA.S.]

im on a 3770 i7 as we speak, still very functional, worth cleaning up and donating

[aguiristante]

i m really happy you are giving them away instead of letting them go to the landfill or recycling. keep it up

The dumpster, one of Dave's best friend in the world and we get interesting videos out of it.

All our monitors at the office are DVI and all our PC's are DisplayPort. You can buy DisplayPort to DVI and DisplayPort to HDMI adapters dirt cheap off Amazon/eBay. DisplayPort is backwards compatible with DVI & HDMI, so a simple adapter works perfectly fine.

Dilbert cubicles are the original Wage Cage.

Next week; Deep Dumpster, the supercomputer I built from parts left in the dumpster room.

[sprybug]

That's awesome of you to take these machines, which actually can still do some good things and donate them to people who could use them. <3

My employer uses software and back end infrastructure for 10-20 years, but we change out client desktop and laptop hardware after 3-5 years.

HDDs get shredded, the rest is auctioned off by the pallet.

[sayanchx]

Have 'Tech Yes City' take a look at taking them off your hands !

[winstonsmith]

Why don't they donate these PCs and monitors to charities which refurb computers and give them away?

[Sylvan_dB]

Still running i7-3770 as my main desktop here at home and just moved it from Western Digital Black spinning rust to SSD. :) Oh, I am on my 3rd laptop since then so there's that.

[DavidSmith-dmew]

I went dumpster diving behind a school and scored 2 hp elitedesk 705 g3 sff pc's with a6-8570 cpu's. They had no hdd or ram :( but I tested them with ddr4 ram from my daily driver and they work ok.

[aksal]

Thumbs up for the first 30 seconds ! Funny Dave .

[johannes]

Decent machines. You can do almost everything with those.

Hmm... ideas for spare monitors... maybe pull the panel out and rig it up with a Pi to make an animated "stained glass" window? Use two and a touch screen to build a giant nintendo DS?
