Tell HN: Free Hardware for People Circa Austin

2•FlwrsAlgeranon•5mo ago
Hi Hacker News Austinites,

I have some hardware that's languishing in storage. I've gotten 1000's of hours of entertainment from the high quality community here (and gifted hardware from those neighboring it). I'd rather give to somebody who knows what to do with it instead of it getting flipped on Craigslist.

So I'm giving away the following for free to whomever wants it. PM profile email for details on pick up/drop off. Please allow some time to respond—I don't have Internet currently.

* Ubiquiti Mesh Wifi 6

* Ubiquiti Flex Mini 5 Switch

* Ubiquiti Dream Machine SE

* Nighthawk Router CM1200

* Linksys Wifi E5400

* Tripplite 6U Rack

* iPad Mini Gen 6 64Gb

Additionally I have books!

* National Geographic: The Photographs

* Now you see it, Stephen Few

* Envisioning Information, Edward Tufte

* Wall and Piece, Banksy

* The Innovators, Walter Isaacson

* Hackers and Painters, Paul Graham

* Maps of the Mind, Charles Turner

* The Cuckoo's Egg, Cliff Stoll

* I am a Strange Loop, Doug Hofstadter

* Linux Bible 10th Edition, Christopher Negus

* The C Programming Language, Kernighan & Ritchie

* Neuromancer, William Gibson

* The Electric Acid Kool-Aid Test, Tom Wolfe
