I have a graveyard of defunct devices that I haven't gotten rid of. They're relatively small, so don't take up much space.
I keep saying I'll cannibalize them to re-use a display or some internal parts - but let's be honest -- it would be like dissecting a pet.
Unfathomable and grotesque.
I'll likely get them recycled eventually. But until then, they sit on a shelf with darkened displays, silently watching time slip by.
Why is it so hard to get rid of old electronics, even when we know that they won’t be used again and most likely no data can be recovered anymore.
I’m usually good at throwing things away, but I too have some devises gathering up dust.
