> What do y'all do with stuff like this?

Slowly accumulating stuff in various boxes that sits in wardrobes around the house. One time I threw a cable that I thought I didn't need and then five years later I needed just that cable so now I don't throw anything.

Broken stuff gets dissembled into pieces, basically harvesting the "important" stuff, then sorted into tinier boxes. Then the rest goes to the recycling center.
