    I organized and threw away cables a few times. Every time a week or two later I’d find the things the power cables attached to and now have no replacement because they were unique to the device.

      The day you need a Thunderbolt cable but you can only find power-only cables is the day you wonder how good USB-C is

    No dad, YOU never know when you might need them. I know for sure that keeping charging cables and headphones with proprietary connectors will never again be useful.

      Your guys’ box isn’t full of HDMI and USB mini/micro?

      Oh and I have 150ft of coax, don’t ask why, I don’t fucking remember

        Does anyone need some old SCART, VGA, DVI, serial, parallel, USB type B, coax, RJ11 cables? And that’s only the stuff I know the names of.
