minus-squareJay@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up9·8 days agoI still have a small box of old ram and a bunch of cpus from that era.( 20 to 30 yrs ago) Had them for years in case someone I knew needed them. I need to take them to a recycling center some day but there isn’t one close by.
minus-squaremodus@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·8 days agoI dump all my e-waste at Best Buy. They’re hoping I’ll buy something, but nah.
minus-squareadarza@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·3 days agothat’s where we take a lot of our junk, too… but we also buy from there when we can, instead of amazon.
