when i hear casio i think keyboards. but i don't think casio when i hear keyboards. i forgot casio made other things although i remember seeing their cameras now that it's been mentioned. and calculators, but i can barely remember what a casio watch looks like.

pretty much this, except i forgot calculators...

i associate casio with keyboards, but not the other way around, if i had to associate any brand with keyboards it would probably be yamaha or something

still, i would not think watches until someone else brought it up (well i guess i will from now on just because of this conversation)

nah you can't really associate any brand with keyboards because

a) there are so many of them
b) there is no "dominant" keyboard brand that would really be a replacement for them

ala Xerox however, is big enough for its brand name to have replaced "copier machine" but this same is not true for keyboards, especially since keyboards aren't something that large number of people use on a daily basis whereas many people in an office use the copier machine/xerox everyday

so in short rangar is a dumb dumb

Just throwin' in that I grew up with Casio calculators all the way through school, so that's what I think of when people say Casio. I knew vaguely about keyboards, but watches? I had no idea.

here as you can see Casio is also a more widely varied brand than Xerox so there is another reason that they cannot be synomisis with keyboards let alone a single product because they make more than one product

well that is why i said if i HAD to, yamaha is the only brand i could come up with for that but like you said there is no dominant keyboard brand

not everybody plays games/has games in the household but don't a lot of people say "timmy get off the damn Nintendo" even when it's like playstation 15

yeah but there's like three different options (timmy get off the nintendo/playstation/xbox, maybe if they're more out of touch THE SEGA but even still that's just four)

there are so many keyboard manufacturers that no one is synonymous with keyboards

also even though sony and microsoft are known for a lot of things, playstation and xbox are the words that stick, and all of those are video games...whereas casio and yamaha and those are not known for just one thing so it would be like calling tvs "samsungs"

congrats on turning this into the topic

when i hear casio i think keyboards. but i don't think casio when i hear keyboards.

i agree with this 100%. lets not talk about it anymore. this topic is about bins/dumpsters.

I am very surprised so many of you have looked through dumpsters before. This has never crossed my mind as a potential GOOD IDEA but apparently outside of supermarkets/large electronic stores is the place to go for free shit. good to know.

btw i'm assuming it is illegal to take shit out of a dumpster if it is on a business's property??? y/n? i'm guessing no one cares

p.s. which dumpster would you recommend if i want to find a casio keyboard

yeah its illegal and a friend of mine that does this actually had the cops called on him for doing this he got away tho
a lot of places also lock their dumpsters, especially if they have been hit before and often

that shit stinks bad

Thats because used cooking oil can be used as fuel for diesel engines just need to cleen the impurities in it by filtering.

Why is it illegal? Aside from the being on the property thing.

Uh, isn't that enough???

It depends on where you live (it's illegal in most places but some just don't plain care), but in a lot of places the contents of a dumpster are considered the property of the dumpster owner.  It doesn't matter that it's being thrown out anyway, it's still technically stealing.  You're only likely to get in trouble for trespassing for doing it, unless you steal something that is worth something (the example of this I found was someone who found customer lists in a dumpster).

But yeah I don't know why you don't see why this is illegal!  It's pretty blatant trespassing and stealing, the only difference is that most people don't give a shit that you're stealing it since it's going to be thrown out.  Them not caring doesn't make it less illegal.  Have you ever thrown something important away on accident and had to go look through the trash for it?  That's the biggest reason I wouldn't want someone going through my trash.

yeah people often throw out incriminating evidence / financial information / soiled viappa that they don't want hoodlums getting their grubby little mits on.
