I think him lashing out at the city council and threatening to sue them doesn't make bitcoin look good. wherever his hard drive is, if it's in that trash dump i don't see how even a data recovery expert could get anything off of it. it's probably been crushed, cracked, corroded, etc. lost cause. his big mistake was throwing it away in the first place but that was his fault no one elses. he lost those bitcoin a long time ago. and they're not coming back.

A threat that never meant anything to the city council, do we think he could make such a threat because he lost something he had. The case that happened to him was not caused by someone else's fault and how could he possibly sue a particular institution because he lost something because of his own fault? This threat could also get him into trouble with the law? for carrying out unpleasant actions against certain institutions.
It's a big regret to lose hundreds of dollars in bitcoin, but the man can't do anything about it. The next step is to forget that, buy and hold bitcoin because that's the only way so that the man doesn't lose his mind and become even crazier doing unexpected things that have no benefit
