I have a Moto G84 with lens coating degradation (a widespread issue for this model) that I keep around as a retro console. Also I'm never buying Motorola ever again. My current phone is an A55.

I toss out phones, but I keep PCs and turn them into servers or dedicate them to specific OSes.

if it's my unused tech, it's clear I don't do anything with it
>>
Yes, I still have my Galaxy S5, numerous old headphones, an old PSU, an old computer case, an old Google Home, and more. Fun fact, if you take it to Best Buy or similar, the pissy entitled goycattle working there just throw it directly in the normal dumpster 98% of the time because there's paperwork, simple sorting, coordination w/ the service provider etc they have to do to actually recycle it. I'll recycle it all once AI androids proliferate into daily life, because only they will actually give a shit and do their motherfucking job.

I recently used my rooted Samsung S3 mini from 2012 to make a vibecoded composite HID device emulator.
I had to make kernel patches through /dev/kmem by making the AI read that kernel's version source code and find the binary offsets it was crazy but it worked. I spent days on it though.

I keep it on the assumption it will have CFW or some other shit in the future. People used to say the PS3 was unhackable or that non-first gen PSPs couldn't be hacked, but today it's as easy as just launching an app on the consoles.

I generally recycle my phones shortly after getting a new one. My previous phone was something that I bought off-contract, so I keep it for a wifi device around the house to save my current phone's battery.
I generally keep a backup desktop, when my primary computer is a laptop, so if I get it stolen/broken, then I'm still able to do basic computer tasks until I have time to get a new one.
Otherwise I recycle/sell my old tech as soon as possible.

my mom takes them and gives them to cousins I have never met in india
>>
I usually keep low cost items (old phone and tablet, for example) as a backup. More expensive items I sell.
>>108343241
Pretty good reasoning. I was close to selling my PS4 since FWs beyond 9.00 were unexploitable. Now most/all of them are.
>>
>>108342649
If it's worth selling, I do
If it's not worth selling but works, I keep it in its original box as a spare
If it doesn't work, but it only needs a small/easy repair, I wait until I have free time to buy the pieces and repair it, then keep it as a spare
If it doesn't work and it'd be hard to repair, I throw it in the trash
>>
>>108342649
i will keep it in a box or something, i don't like to drop or sell my tech stuff at all
>>
if it's a decentish PC, then it becomes a server
if it's a phone, then I either keep it as a spare or root it and play around with custom roms or rooted apps
>>
>>108342649
my Newton MessagePad gives me warm fuzzy feelings even though it’s stored away
>>
>>108342649
