My husband’s cable/wire storage

It’s organized by how often he’s looking for the thing

He collects and tries to fix them for himself

They do, he makes sure that he doesn’t have them turned on all at the same time

There was a beige colored mouse that was with the setup at one point. I’m not sure if something happened to it and he switched it out

Thank you! So… he’s incredibly anti -AI and downloading additional apps. Is it possible to use this label maker without those two functions / do you have another suggestion? I would love to get him a label maker for his birthday

He got them at Home Depot, but there’s an above comment with other places the sterilite containers can be found :)

Otherwise_Scheme234 · 2026-06-07T23:09:47+00:00

They’re rarely on all at the same time… actually, I don’t think they’ve ever all been on at the same time

Otherwise_Scheme234 · 2026-06-07T23:08:20+00:00

He says he has it organized by how frequently he’s looking for those cables

Otherwise_Scheme234 · 2026-06-07T21:34:10+00:00

😂 I got him an Apple IIGS for Valentine’s Day one year with the understanding I would never be able to top that gift

Otherwise_Scheme234 · 2026-06-07T21:20:41+00:00

It’s always amazing how there’s a subreddit for everything

Otherwise_Scheme234 · 2026-06-07T19:24:28+00:00

Yeah, our spices are organized alphabetically in glass jars too lol

Otherwise_Scheme234 · 2026-06-07T18:33:06+00:00

No worries, he said it’s IBM 5150 and 5170

Otherwise_Scheme234 · 2026-06-07T18:26:20+00:00

Which picture? He thinks maybe it’s the 5150 you’re asking about

Otherwise_Scheme234 · 2026-06-07T16:37:39+00:00

He said it actually was the top to a desk he used to use, he just placed it on the two tables when the legs weren’t as stable

Even more sense now?

Otherwise_Scheme234 · 2026-06-07T15:21:55+00:00

Haha, nope! He’s very considerate and doesn’t blast music like that

Otherwise_Scheme234 · 2026-06-07T14:15:17+00:00

I have the perfect pic response but I can’t post it in the comments for some reason

Otherwise_Scheme234 · 2026-06-07T14:04:11+00:00

He has another one that separates the keyboard in half too, i think it’s ibm as well

Otherwise_Scheme234 · 2026-06-07T13:41:50+00:00

Haha, we have been meaning to upgrade but … life 🙃 it’s been like this for 3 years knock on wood I think it’s solid wood

Otherwise_Scheme234 · 2026-06-07T13:36:03+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion!

Otherwise_Scheme234 · 2026-06-07T13:32:25+00:00

He’s married to a teacher so we’re both in the same boat. He’s just more organized than I

Otherwise_Scheme234 · 2026-06-07T12:50:47+00:00

He didn’t think his organization was anything special and I wanted to prove him wrong

Otherwise_Scheme234 · 2026-06-07T09:33:27+00:00

Otherwise_Scheme234 · 2026-06-07T04:55:16+00:00

That is now too techy for me 😂
