I used to think the same way as you before realize someone garbage it's someone else treasure, so now I sell anything too old for my uses to add some extra money and get new stuff, usually don't throw away anything, for example I like to disguise old laptops and CPUs to sell the working old parts to people who repair industrial old equipment, plenty of people willing to pay good money for some pieces of old shitty hardware.
