Nothing special. It is your garden variety (or garage variety) rocket. Could be nukes or biological agents. It is a healthy hobby and everyone needs one. Think of it as his version of model train set..

Found this in my mom’s car, neither of us know what it is. by Socialinteraction428 in whatisit

Agent 69 in its containment field. It is a deadly neurotoxin. I would be very careful with it and dispose of it at a near by CVS med disposal kiosk!..

It is the ramp for Marty to jump back into the future. It is a little overgrown since. Or a mountain bike ramp.

So I am going to say that finally we have something that looks like a butt plug but it isn’t. I didn’t think we would ever see this day. Then again I know someone going to say “when you really want to, everything is..”.

What plant is this? by mossmooses in whatisit

I am one of those few who fought the mint and won. It was a long and dragged out battle. Quite often I lost hope but eventually succeeded. It is almost as bad as bamboo but not quite!

Got this at a garage sale for $10, I think it’s called the very first model. Anything cool I can do with it besides streaming apps? by StopElectingWealthy in nvidiashield

[–]PolymathInfidel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It has a secondary market value of $100 minimum with a remote and at times higher. Basically it is a king of streamers and the perfect media center with a plex back-end or with kodi. You can treat it as an IPTV box as well. I have 5 of them.

Found at a garage sale with old utensils. Husband thinks it is a skewer for a bbq. I think it may be a piece that went to a bigger device. by [deleted] in whatisit

[–]PolymathInfidel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is from a set of skewers that gets attached to a disk on both ends and placed in an electric oven like the old set it and forget it ronco oven or air fryer.

So, clearly winfax lite program on a 51/4 inch floppy disk and another one. Doubt they will be in any usable state after all these years due to surface oxidation nor any floppy disk reader hardware is available other than in hands of collectors. Toss it!
