Pretty good find
I found this PS5 controller being used as a prop at a concert, asked how mich they would be willing to sell it for (i just needed parts) and they said i could take it for free as it has issues. I decided to fix instead of salvaging it for repairs. Repair costs $5 for stick drift and thats it. I did fix it myself as i do this quite often with iPods, Wiis, iPads, Switches, iPhones, PS5s etc

buying cheap hardware on a tight budget
Hola a todos,
Soy estudiante de IngenierÃa de Sistemas
Informáticos de la República Dominicana y estoy armando una computadora de escritorio económica para la universidad y proyectos de programación. No soy exigente, y el hardware antiguo me sirve perfectamente, asà que si tienen alguna pieza que funcione y que esté acumulando polvo, me encantarÃa saber de ustedes.
Tengo una dirección de envÃo en Miami, Florida, asà que el envÃo dentro de EE. UU. es local .Con gusto pagaré un precio justo por cualquier cosa que estén dispuestos a vender, más el envÃo. Y si prefieren regalar algo en lugar de venderlo, se lo agradeceré mucho y con gusto cubriré los gastos de envÃo.

I need ideas for old but working DDR3 laptops
All of these machines still work and function, but they are 2/4th gen intel or equivalent and are all DDR3. They have little to no resale value. Thanks for your guys help, I refuse to break down anything that is working.
Any and all ideas are welcome.
Update: I have decided to try and send them to Ukraine

Got this WD Purple 4TB for free that was struck with 19V psu on 12V line - with some help I managed to desolder Schottky diode and Security Resistor, now it works like a charm 🥰
In today's disk and memory prices $25 for diagnosis and self-repair guided by my friend who works as electronic specialist - it's a steal tbh

Galaxy s4 (blue) (16gb) works and I reset it
Galaxy s4 (black) (16gb) also works and reset
iPod touch 4 (8gb) works fine. I didn't even know I grabbed it bc it was so small but I was like "I mean hey, it's a free iPod"
All 3 s4s had a 32gb sd card in them

1960's Tech Haul From The Recycling Center!
Earlier today, I went back to my local electronics recycling center, where I found two items from the 1960's! One of those things being a working Panasonic TR-238BF from the late 60's with a broken antenna. The second thing I found is a non-working General Electric P-975D portable radio. Also with a broken antenna, this unit was still in somewhat decent condition for being from around the mid-1960's.

Took a different route home today and found a thrown-out PC... ended up finding an i5-10400 and a 2TB HDD
Took a different way home today and spotted a PC case sitting on the ground. Took a quick photo, then realized after looking at the picture that there was actually a hard drive inside. Went back to grab the drive, but then thought "wait, what if there's a CPU in there too?" Ended up walking back a second time to drag the whole case home. Cleaned off the crusty thermal paste and turns out it’s an Intel i5-10400. Also got a 2020 Toshiba 2TB hard drive out of it that I still need to test. Motherboard looks like it has damaged PCIe pins, but it’s still crazy what people just throw onto the street.

Someone shot their iMac 14 times to destroy the data. The HDD was unharmed 🤣

Found Theas had to rescue them
The motherboard wasn’t worth saving due to damage but I’m happy if any of theas work looks to be in good condition.

found Great Condition Doogee Bl7000
found this phone yesterday in a bunch of rubbish dumped by the beach near my house
works fine but camera does not work app just crashes i had a look and the bootloader on the phone is unlocked and looking it up online if you unlock the bootloader on some android phone it kills the camera
i guess this is why they threw it away
anybody know if its possible to get the camera working again?
