You Don't Need to Keep Every Electronic Box! (lemmy.today)

Just cleaned out mt garage, closet, and attic. No clue why I kept every single box of anything electronic/tech based in the last ten years. I just tossed boxes for phones I haven't had in years, old CPU and heat sync boxes, boxes for 100mbps nics, old modems I don't have anymore. I've never needed any of these and have brought them with me through too many house moves.

You're not my real dad. You can't tell me what to do.

This is amazing, wait, that wasn't the point of this post.

There's some real history in there if you look close enough! My VHS Player, the old WRT-54G router, a George Foreman Grill...

I don't have a problem, you do!
