I wish my father would have done the same. He left me a garage and three sheds full of crap. I have to admit I've loved and used some, a very little, but the vast majority goes to the dump. It's a lot of work. We should not do this to our survivors. Also, I think we enjoy the little gems like the PCRef, that our kids won't recognize. We should follow your example and clean our own house while we can, and maybe enjoy a few gems of our own.
If I follow your example and my own advice, my last box of stuff will have my 1984 intel LAN Components User's Manual. I spent a lot of time in those years building boards around the 82586 Ethernet Coprocessor. Way too much fun.

There are at east a coule of sites out there like User Manuals[^] and ManualsLib[^] that I think you could donate to if you're up for it. (Google manuals, should be at the top.)

Nothing like my hardback TI TTL databook. (1984?)

I can relate, I lost a lot of my 70's & 80's historical computer software and documention in a fire back in 2008. A lot of it I've never found replacements. I would love to peruse some of it today. But for a lot of it, it wasn't realy worth the space. A time amchine and a scanner would be nice.
I've have a saying that applies.
Nostalgia can be a prison if you let it.

Pack it into boxes. Then haul the boxes up and down the stairs every month. The number of trips will allow you to objectively measure how fond you really are of that stuff.

Awesome, thanks.
Liked "Between Two Points", didn't care for "Dark and Velvet Nights".
I guess it's his grand-daughter in "Between Two Points", she has a good voice and does a greatjob on that track.

I was hoping you could feed a song into that thing, and have it replace the vocals with someone else's.
Rather, this seems like a simple filter like we used to have a few decades ago (I'm thinking Winamp). Which means it would distort the music as well.
And that sample video...my god, it communicates nothing useful. This is what happens when you let marketing run things.
