So, a couple days ago, somebody dumped a fucktonne of discs in cases into the dumpster at my work, and while i originally was going to just salvage the cases, i got curious what was on them
So, in thd black cases, what i have are some burbed copies of windows XP with keys(haven't tested them) burned DVD-R full of 20 year old programs like old antiviris programs with cracks, registry tools, old copies of p2p programs, a couple of gamed,tune up tools, e.t.c. just a wide variety of cool program that just brought back some memories. They were from 2004 to about 2007 from what i can tell by the date stamps.
I found a game from the 1990's called "aviation adventure", and a copy of encarta 95 still sealed. 3 copies of nero 7 essentials.
I also found a disc labeled "the world trade center movie". Popped that disc in and it was an over an hour long conspiracy movie about 9 11. I haven't watched it yet, but just the bits i've quickly skimmed through looked very interesting.
Again, my original intent was just to save the cases, but found some cool shit.
2004-2007 feels like yesterday to me. I've probably got shit like this floating around my office/home. I find it deeply disturbing that this is considered some cache of relics.
Loose Change is on YouTube, including the extended version. It's got some lame conspiracy theories, and lots of spooky music.
About 3 years after I saw it, a bunch of normies at my work got into it and went deep on the 9/11 truther rabbithole.
Normies ruin everything.

Dumpster divers are the most oppressed minority, everyone just looks at them as weirdos when you can find absolutely cool and valuable things that companies just throw away. O7
I remember downloading that from a BitTorrent tracker sometime around 2005. I still have it on a burned DVD somewhere. Looks like there was an entire series of Loose Change films, the last one being made in 2017.
As for dumpster diving, I enjoy a good dive myself. Dave Jones from EEVBlog does too, and he's found some crazy stuff in the dumpsters at the office block where his lab is located.
Here's Dave training up the next generation of dumpster divers
The best part about the dumpster diving videos where Dave finds a whole bunch of old computers is seeing all the pajeets in the comments section asking if Dave will give them a free laptop. They have no shame.

Encarta 95 lol reminds me of those AoL CDs they'd always send promising a free month of internet or whatever. I never could activate it for some reason.
There's this old program I used to use called Typing Tutor 7 by Simon and Schuster. Such a great little program for teaching typing. I bet gen z wouldn't be so illiterate on the keyboard if they'd be exposed to quality programs like that and Encarta 95 lol

Can you really blame anyone though? You're going through smelly, contaminated and unknown shit in bins. It's going to make anyone question your life's choices. I just can't imagine going through dumpster after dumpster, reeking like everything from it and just sauntering off like nothing without someone wondering what's going on. At least the excuse of "oh yeah I work for a dumpster company and found these cool things" may work.

I prefer "trashpicked" when discussing stuff that's been rescued from e-waste, as pulling something from a recycling bin or found on the side of the road isn't exactly the same as diving head first into a literal dumpster like Oscar The Grouch.
