Would love to do that too, Swiss companies and universities are so wasteful it’s incredible what goes in the dumpster. It doesn’t even seem like universities try to sell their discarded equipment, they just dump it out of access to the public. How do you find these?
- qwezxcrty 3y agoI'm doing my PhD there and from time to time need to throw away a few equipment that are genuinely non-reusable (dead lasers, for example) cleaned out from the labs. Then I got to know the recycling center on campus and developed a habit of looking around for things there.
- ornornor 3y agoLucky you. I know companies and universities trash a lot of repairable or even perfectly good gear, but mere mortals can’t ever access it and so it’s “recycled” (whatever that means in practice) Would love a connection if you or anyone else reading has one :)
