a...amiibos
>>51446739

Used female underwear
>>51446752
no I just like looking at them
maybe I'll make a table out of pentiums and celerons if I get enough
>>51446739
I collect porn sites.
I was the guy with 20+ TB of porn.
>>51446739
>Do you have problems with compulsive hoarding?
No, I throw stuff away when I don't need it any longer. It's very simple and feels good.
>>51446739
That's a pretty expensive hobby
How many of them are still working?
>>51446786
so you collect the experience of throwing stuff out
>>51446794
all of them
Pocket knives, all varieties from box knives to swiss army knives to 4 inch boot knives.
I once asked if i could take the confiscated knife box from my local airport because they were just gonna throw em out, and they said "sure, take em".
Got about 950 knives out of that one box, all kinds of shit in there. Someone tried to bring a KA-Bar on a plane at one point it seems.
Ive got a total of 1611 knives, about 310 or so are antique knives, another 100 are old military stuff, and the rest are normal present day knives, utility knives and little folding knives and stuff.
I always got that "oh wow so edgy you collect knives" but then people see the knife room and its alot more impressive than some emo fag hoarding 20$ amazon mall ninja shit.
old ipods. I got collection of rare ones(u2,hp,1st gen, etc)
>>51446739
Lithium ion batteries
I collect Garfield and Dilbert comic book strips (their files, not physically). Currently I have all of them from the time the respective series was started.
I have made little programs to rip the strips from their websites
>>51446799
>so you collect the experience of throwing stuff out
No, I just forget about it and move on. I don't like clinging to the past.

>>51446907
Unless I can see your cute ass again with a timestamp. Not real.
>>51446739
Comics, mtg cards, old pokemon cards and video games.
>>51446949
Actually I probably have all three. I have Star Wars Episodes 1-3 I think, all the Lord of the Rings, probably tons of shit.
I have an urge to collect novelty coffee mugs that I find pleasing.
Apparently mugs are expensive.
Tech related collection? I have a lot of unused case fans at the moment.
Other than that, I have no collection.
Sony MiniDisc players and discs.
>>51446884
Aus.
>>51446897
They're just amazing. Best part is all those are free, but I also have some 3400mAh cells I bought for my phone.
>>51446898
Everyone could.
>>51447017
>Sony MiniDisc players and discs.
i have more discs at my grandparent's place than you could imagine
I started collecting Fumos.
Same desu senpai
>>51447035
>>51446970
Pretty sure my ass is anything but cute
>>51446739
I suppose my stash of older retired computer parts could be considered a collection. In particular i try to get my hands on oddball computer parts.
>>51446763
I made a tiny stove to boil water with 4

>>51446739

I like product boxes.
They're good if I ever intent to resell them or RMA them as well.
Mechanical pencils.

this, i also have tons of boxes from devices i bought since 2005
im abroad so i cant post pic right now
>nobody posts their dragon dildo collection
/g, I am disappoint
Been collecting figs since 2009. It's not much if you compare it to someone who's in this hobby full time.
>>51447759
All I see is useless, overpriced, dust-collecting, plastic/cardboard clutter that just repels pussy for thousands of miles.
>>51446739
God damn. Those old CPUs were huge compared to what we get today.
I bought an i5 6600K and I couldn't believe how fucking tiny it was. They don't even use pins anymore on CPUs.
>>51447787
Have you considered Reddit?
>>51446815
Can we see a picture of all those knives?
>>51447560
dude that's badass post a vid/pic
>>51446739
Do you have these beautiful things?
>>51447971
why is the pcb so huge?
>>51447996
Because the heat spreader is small.
>>51447801
>They don't even use pins anymore on CPUs.
did you live under a rock for the past 10 years?
>>51448011
.....
I learned something today.
That you're mean.
>>51448022
Yes.
When did they remove the pins?
>>51446739
lost hopes and dreams
>>51446815
oh wow so edgy you collect knives
oh but they're *special* knives, wow really changed my opinion there
>>51448027
Pentium 4.
Went from pga 486(i think) to lga 775.
I miss the pins on the processor though...
AMD still does it though, and i hope they do it for zen too
>>51446847
me too
tfw 12 top-of-the-line panasonics and I'm not even using them
feels like a waste so I just use my 2200 mAh sanyos in my powerbanks
>>51448054
The pins on the old FX chips were fricken tiny.
I've only owned two Intel CPUs made in the last decade and I didn't put together the previous Intel system I owned.
It just surprised me.
Though I think if OP really wants to collect CPUs, he should find some of those old PIII-era CPUs on daughter boards that used large slots like PCI ports. That would really stand out.
Nothing /g/ related, unless you count old monitors I don't have the heart to toss out because they still work... I've got a handful of 23" 1080p TN displays I haven't used since I made the jump to 1440p IPS displays...
>>51448059
They're really great though, I use them in my diy projects.
Built my girlfriend a speaker, extremely easy and cheap, with 2 sanyo 2200mAh cells.
Battery lasts so long, I was amazed.

Forgot I also almost have every Gamecube game.
I collect trees from the wild and train them into bonsai. This is my third year doing it. It's a very relaxing hobby. My bonsai tools were pretty expensive but after that there's not a lot of cost involved besides fertilizer and soil components.
yes...
>>51448438
I didn't know they stacked shit that high
>>51448415
>My bonsai tools were pretty expensive
What are you doing to it that can't be done with kitchen shears?
>>51448438
I still think the iPhone 2g was the most aesthetically pleasing.
Can't get the thermal paste off some of these, especially the Athelon in the middle bottom.
>>51446739
shitboxes and shitbox accessories, mostly workstations and other exotic hardware because it was practically art and I've learned a ton from working on it.
also have a pretty big CPU/card collection from pulling parts at recyclers and from destitute systems I send out for scrap, one day I will have every single P4 every released just because I can
>>51448438
That's from ijustine video you lying fuck
>>51448534
Have you thought of trying that Arcticlean thermal remover?
I got some a long time ago, still use it and still seems to work well.
>>51446763
Same here, i love collecting them, but rarely have a chance to extract one from computer. Only got four so far, two amd two intel. All low end stuff
>>51447698
I have a bunch too will post pic later
>>51448909
I Need to get more enterprise-level stuff like this dude.

We just cleared out our DC, I actually ran out of room in my apartment.
I ended up saving about 500GB of ram, some xeons, a bunch of SAS raid cards, a bunch of 2.5" drives, a quarter rack, 3 cisco routers, 2 ASAs, 1 cisco switch, 10 10GbE cards.

>>51449042
What on Earth? Amazing they let you keep all that, meanwhile I'm over here salvaging thrown out computers.
>>51449091
Only reason I don't have more is because my wife was starting to get mad that I brought home a trunk of stuff each day for 3 weeks straight.
I'm the only IT guy on the west coast, I'm the only one who knew what we had.
I also took 12 monitors, 6 laptops 3 personal level UPSes, about 25 SSDs
It was all getting recycled. I even started giving free shit to users.
In the end I only took about 10% of what I wanted.
>>51446847
Make a belt out of it and wear it in a public place
>>51448438

I throw away stuff I don't need, except books. Can't seem to let go of those fuckers.
>>51446752
Pentium Pros are worth collecting for the gold, particularly those with additional cache.
Later chips don't contain as much.
>>51449422
>particularly those with additional cache.
actually the opposite is true, the 1M cache Pros aren't really as gold-laden as the 256 and 512Ks
fuck gold scrapping that shit though, even if you do it yourself the $50 you gained from it would be wasted in the time spent acquiring it and you'd also be destroying a very interesting/historical piece of tech that is already incredibly rare
>>51449118
Any plans for any of it? Pics?
I mostly just don't throw things out if they can be fixed.
>Anon why don't you throw this old shit out?
I collect memory.
Whiskys.
>tfw having a Karuizawa 1964 a meter away from me
>>51448462
The trees themselves are full grown already. So there's a lot of cutting, sawing, and carving that has to be done to shape them into the right form. It's pretty tedious work but the right tools help quite a bit. But like I said, after you get the right tools, there's not a lot of extra expense involved. Unless you want to buy a "finished" tree then you can spend thousands. But to me that's no fun.
I collect no gf feels and I don't mean the pictures...
I have a lot of them...
>>51449118
Do they still work?
>>51446739
Thinkpads and Libretto's
I collect dust
>>51448335
I have the same one, this shit is the heaviest cpu I ever saw.
I collect rare pepes
>>51450403
I just threw out my years old dust collection.
I miss it already.
I've grown to hate collecting things just for the sake of collecting things. I'll only hold onto something if I still have a valid use for it. I don't like clutter.
I've been selling off tons of my old junk online throughout the past few months. I'm really amazed with how much people pay for shit I've considered just throwing away.
NO, i'm not a hoarding degenerate

Those pentium pro chips there have about $40 of gold in them each alone, they're the most sought after chips for gold recovery. How'd you come by them?

None of those things are possible in BIOS. Sounds like you're just realizing how much better UEFI is than BIOS.

Actually really like this. Get more to complete the look!
I hoard music. Vinyl, cassettes, mp3/aac/flac.
I used to have a ton of music on my desktop, but the hdd that I had windows/grub/xubunu/all my music on crashed and kinda fucked everything over. Currently have about 50gb on my desktop, 40gb on my laptop, 40gb on my phone. Around 200 12" records, 30~40 7", and about 30 cassettes. Pic of some cassettes cause they're easiest access atm.

I fucking love 90s Thinkpads and Toshiba laptops. It's a shame that eBay jews now want $100+ for them.
I collect vintage computers. It's just fun to fuck around with real vintage hardware and play games on. And they're super cheap if you know where to look, unlike retro game consoles which have been forever ruined by reselling jews.
I collect vintage alarm clocks. I just like them. This was from back in June, I have about a dozen more now, but I am away from home at the moment.

Sweet I really like that. The place I work at has like 20-30 old pentiums laying around gathering dust. My boss doesnt want to get rid of them nor sell them. Really want to take them home
>>51450599
ALRIGHT.. CARRY ON UPDATING US
>>51453492
Two from a $5 destitute HP Netserver I had no hope of repairing, one from a destitute $5 workstation, another one from a board I got for free from a high school a long time ago, and another one out of a Gateway2k machine I parted out forever ago. I've also got four more running in working systems.
Will never scrap them for the gold, though. They're rare enough as it is, especially the higher-spec chips that were mega-expensive and only used in niche OEM systems. Not to mention they're a real fascinating piece of engineering to own, the first really "modern" x86 chip, employing a fast RISC core and on-chip cache running at full speed. It took a ton of effort to design and make them.

>>51459259
But having garbage isnt a collection, its still just garbarge.
>>51459836
Depends. Some models like ones used in movies, such as Groundhog day, can be pretty collectible and some what valuable. Otherwise, they go anywhere from $3 to maybe $10 max. In box, maybe looking at $15 max. Again, if it is a more collectable model, it could fetch much more
>tfw someone asked $200 for a same model clock used in Back to the Future
I wonder if it ever sold.

>>51462107
Still use my 17" G4 PowerBook, brah. Battery lasts 2.5 hours still, but the frame's a little bent.
>>51462107
I remember you. Was the Sawtooth a recent purchase?
500 MHz model here, thinking of fitting in a Media 100 board in it as well.
>>51446739
It didn't start out intentionally ... I just rarely have the need to throw any away and now I've got about 2 TB worth in a big mix of speeds and specifications.
BTW, I want to test all of it and evaluate to reformat & repurpose. Just started a thread on it about half an hour ago.

Same here, generally set my price target at $0. Still haven't gotten a C64, everyone and their mom wants a SID chip nowadays.
Just finished repairing a Franklin Ace 1200's keyboard. It's one of the Keytronics capacitive ones (I believe the one in your trash 80 is identical), which has mylar mounted on foam pads that turn to dust after 30 years.
>>51462992
>has the breakout box
Noice. I really want to find one for mine, though I think the Vincent cards aren't quite date matched to the G4 hardware so it kind of throws my autism off. If I ever find a 9600/200MP or 350 maybe I'll fit it to one of those instead.

I mean... does he have any idea how disgusting this actually is? It's not just like a few drops of blood, there is other stuff too. And it smellls so gross.
I was once with this vegan girl. Everything about her smelled great and her pussy actually tasted like fruits. Even after her using the bathroom for number two it never smelled, like at all. But the fucking bathroom trash smelled disgusting when she had her period, even with her.
So wtf? How can anyone be into that?

What kinda trees you talking about? Surely you don't mean something like a full grown ash or maple, etc.

I actually have two breakout boxes, If you want one, and don't mind paying for shipping from NZ, [email protected]. No idea if it's compatible with newer/older models of the card.
Agreed it is a bit anachronistic, but hey, it still works (with software crack since there's no ADB port to plug the dongle into).

maybe you haven't slept with any vegan girls.
Of course it makes sense that your food influences your bodily odors. Meat and milk products are actually really bad if you want to smell good.

He said he collects trees from the wild. Not sure where he's from but most trees are pretty big when full grown. I have read you can use any tree/Bush for bonsai but what I want to know is what kinda trees he's using. Also size.

Where the fuck do you look for them?
eBay is purely for jews, and I have had no luck with local flea markets (some fucker trying to sell a C128 for $140).
All I can think of is Craigslist, and most of the time anything "vintage" is either from the early 2000's/90's or are Apple systems which are overpriced as fuck.
