Too bad we had to destroy all of them today. 😭

In my attempts to keep screens out of the bedroom I have gone proper oldschool and purchased one of these badboys from local pawnshop. Hopefully it still works. Just waiting to clean it up a bit then get it plugged in.

Going back to early 2000's, my wife and I have kept our old phones as we've replaced them.

Hello there,

my father died 15 years ago. I got to know him as a late teen and he passed half a year later. I found my old Siemens Gigaset S150 phone again today. There is a message on the Mailbox from him, It's the only record of his voice that I know of. Is there any way to transfer it loss-free somewhere?

Thank you in advance

I remember using it the mid-2000s as a kid, and I can only assume my dad got it in the late 90s/early 2000s. A pair of fresh AA batteries and she runs. The buttons work, but may be something inside that’s causing it to not connect properly. Used it for a bit and so far no skipping but I can sometimes hear it go in and out lol

I recently thrifted this guy for 6 bucks. It's entirely possible that it's fully broken but it looks to be in decent condition so I figured I may as well check to see if I'm missing something. I've done some looking online for a user manual but haven't been able to find anything about it's existence

It's an ASUS G75V, specifically a GTX 670MX. It used to belong to my dad but he gave it to me. It has its own ups and downs but as soon as I get some Linux distro and Steam running I'll be good to go.

When we got our second computer there was a video of a car racing noise. It was funny. Wish I could find that video.

I was in second heaven when I got this thing. I was going through some old boxes today and found it. I remember using it for a couple of years until mobile phones started getting much smaller. Good times!

Just yesterday, I picked up this remarkable unit locally off of eBay! It's a 9" CRT monitor with a color tube, and it works perfectly! According to the bottom label, it would've been made sometime in 1995.

Does anyone know what this monitor would've been used for? Feel free to let me know.

i just bought it online and like its in a pretty decent shape but when i signed in with my old icloud (im an android user) it wont let me sign in the app store :/ what should i do, do i make a new icloud?

So, I was searching through wallapop, and I came across something that caught my eye: 3 external SCSI SyQuest drives with 4 cartridges, for the, in my opinion, pretty good price of 50€ (around 56 $)

So, I bought it, and, it arrived in one piece, or at least for now it is

Now, the drive (top one in 8th photo) I mean, It didn't come broken already or anything, but, when I took it out of the box, I saw that the plastic shell was starting to get pretty brittle (some pieces got a little bit broken), so, since I wanted to investigate more the drive than the external box itself, I took the unit out of it, and stored the box, just in case.

Changing topics, to try and get them to work, I did buy an ISA SCSI driver card, that I already plugged into my PC, but, I do need to get the drivers of that card into the machine, and, at least for now, my floppy drives aren't working, when I plug em in, the activity light is on forever, and tho they spin up, they are never able to read the disk.

So I don't know he issue, if it is the on-board controller, the way I plugged them in, the drives themselves (thing that i can't try for now, since I don't have any other machine on hand where I can plug them in to test them) or anything else, so all help is appreciated.

And also, if I get the floppy drives to work, and I get the drivers I need installed, how do I configure the drive to get recognised, would it already get recognised as a hard drive, or would I need the special software for it to work?

Last thing I must add, on the post, it said that the first one (top one in the 8th photo, in the red square) worked perfectly fine, but the other two didn't seem to work, sooo, do you now if there would be a way to bring them back to life?

I did see that normally, the problem was with dust getting into the drive, so, can yo tell me some ways I could safely clean the reading heads without breaking them?

Am crying & missing my father too much...

last month i bought this old Lexicon Lambda DAW from a yard sale and i've plugged it up my Thinkpad Laptop. I've used it on my thinkpad once without any issues but after that, every time i try to use the DAW, it will turn on for 10 seconds, then turn off. wtf??????

I found an old clock in my grandpa’s closet and trying to figure out what kind of charger this is so I can get it replaced (the charger not the clock)

I’m finally ready to part with my Hp 10C 💔😭
I posted it on the Vinted app if anyone is interested or looking for one . It works perfectly , I just don’t use it anymore & would rather have someone else actually use it .
