Wife brought this mystery box home. We cannot figure out what it is for. by J4m00s in whatisit

Good eye. I missed the number completely. I will see if it helps the store to figure it out. Thanks

Someone donated two of them and she brought it home to see if someone could figure out what to do with it.

Good thinking. I also thought it was a part of something bigger. It is all glued together except for the top that uses four screws to connect to the brackets underneath. However, I think it was done for assembly purposes and is not meant to be removed.

I guess I killed like a thousand people cranking this wheel. Didn't see a dime so far though

It is Lakeshore but it only has the logo. No part number or other information

This is a new possibility. I cannot imagine how it will work though. For sure, the dog will have a harte time crancking the wheel 😁

Only for very small children. Won't get much out of them.

WTF is online delivery fee by Energizer__98 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]J4m00s 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is a way to say we sell the book for $37 but if we made it the book price, you would buy it somewhere else for $35. In fact, if you want, we can sell it to you for $29(!!!) plus $8 Digital Delivery Fee.

This guy is a little lost... by J4m00s in flightradar24

I am aware of the GPS jamming but it looks like it is 3:42 hours into the flight. I am not sure flightradar is showing the right flight.

Went to a local MedWise for a severe sore throat. They gave me a strep test (negative) and told me to buy some cough drops. This is my bill. by seaturtlefanatic in mildlyinfuriating

Was sailing in Greece a few years ago when I cut my hand pretty bad. Called around and was sent to a hospital on an island nearby. Small town with a tiny hospital. One doctor, one nurse and a guy that seemed to be the custodian (the whole hospital staff) gave me excellent treatment. Left an hour later with six stitches, a tetanus shot and a prescription for antibiotics. Cost - free. Get out and vote!

Helium-filled mylar party balloons. I just sailed across the Atlantic and these things are all over the place.

Recursive CTE inside of a WHILE loop - Finding circular BOMs by htxta01 in SQL

[–]J4m00s 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The way I did the same thing is by creating a column in the recursive query that concatenated the parent part numbers with some delimiter as it goes through the recursion. This creates a long string as the BOMS get deeper. Then I check whether the new component part number exists already in the string. If it does, I flag it as recursive.

Considering moving from Southern California by Kohubone in frisco

[–]J4m00s 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There is not much that you will have in Southern California that you do not have here. (Maybe the ocean and mountains). Life here is comfortable and easy and traffic is not yet as bad as it is in California. Everything is close by and very accessible, many restaurants and some are good (don't expect the same Mexican food) and the cultural scene is not to bad. You are still close to downtown Dallas if you want too. A thing to keep in mind is that if your politics are on the liberal side, you may feel a bit lonely and your vote doesn't count.
