1000 people could spend their entire lives digging through a landfill and will never find it srs. The odds are so insanely small especially considering how much time has passed. Think how much trash just you alone produce per day.

This. I'd feel bad if it was some kid who didn't realize what he had when at the time it was worth like 12 cents or something. But forget about the worth of it now, this dude "accidentally" threw out a hard drive that was worth $1 million at the time. He's a fuking retard.

I don't get it. Like yeah itd be nice to have but how much different does he think his life would be that hes wasted all this time thinking about it. like he must dream about it too.

on the other hand maybe he thinks of it like a lost love.

plot twist: he's daydreaming about it while walking and gets hit by a bus ...and doesn't die...but is paralyzed so he comes to realize maybe his life wasn't so bad without the money in the first place.
