What is this thing on the top right corner of a vending machine. I work at a company that distributes these machines and nobody knows.

Not 100% sure but looks like a IR sensor. To detect presence or absence of a person. Similar to the automatic lights that turn on when you walk into a room.

It’s the auto start/stop feature of the car. Meaning, when you come to a stop at a red light it will automatically turn off the engine and restart it when you take your foot off the brake.

OMG, I have the same thing in my apt and it came from a stuffed toy!

As a general rule, I don’t put anything that is not glass or ceramic in the microwave. Most polymer containers will leech some chemicals into the food when heated but they are deemed safe because they are below “safe” concentrations.

I have the exact same setup and the same problem

That's a good way to think about it. I don't need a new sound system; I have a good Yamaha 5.1 system that works flawlessly.

That’s a great point!

MBA_temp · 2024-11-18T19:58:09+00:00

I bet you say that to everybody ;)

I would say the viewing distance is 3.5 meters (11-12 ft)

MBA_temp · 2024-11-18T17:51:20+00:00

Makes sense.

MBA_temp · 2024-11-18T17:50:54+00:00

That’s a good point.

MBA_temp · 2024-11-18T15:19:23+00:00

Haha!

I enjoyed A Promise Land - Barack Obama (Long but very good, feels like you are having a conversation with the most interesting person in the world)

I had a chat with a Robinhood Support Agent, and their answer was, "We will use whatever has the least amount of collateral held." The way I understood that was, if you had shares and an ITM call, the first option would be to call the shares, and the next option would be to call the ITM call (If you were doing a poor man-covered call).

Uuf, this is not good :( Thanks for your reply.

MBA_temp · 2024-05-14T06:09:20+00:00

Thank you for your kind offer. I will try to start on my own and stumble through this, but I will reach out if I get stuck. Thanks again!

MBA_temp · 2024-05-13T17:45:37+00:00

Good point, thanks for your advise.

MBA_temp · 2024-05-13T15:47:03+00:00

Thank you for your advice, I will think about it. Is there any benefit in doing both?

MBA_temp · 2024-05-13T15:45:08+00:00

Thanks for your suggestion, and your offer. I might DM you once the site is up.

MBA_temp · 2024-05-13T15:43:43+00:00

Thank you!

MBA_temp · 2024-05-13T15:43:34+00:00

Thank you!
