if everyone is confessing: Back in my first year in Uni, I and buddy stole a cpu and monitor from storage, not from computer lab, just from storage which was scheduled to get replaced. It was a HP business desktop set from 2009. Fairly spec'd

Buddy wanted a second monitor and I wanted to host some fun sfw websites on lan. Some years later, it now works as my home server with some cheap upgrades.

Oh I also nicked stuff from e-waste dumps: psu's, routers, switchs, electronic trinkets from the labs(I asked lab attendants and they said they don't care)

My uni didn't allow us to use the labs in our free time, and I learned a lot!

Or you just do the most practical thing and order a $2 replacement from Amazon/Aliexpress

I need to figure out how to do cad/3d printing, cuz I'm begining to lose control! Well, I've already lost CTRL on both sides of my keyboard because the keycap sleeve broke and it constantly falls off the switch (cherry mx red).
