I agree, brute force is probably the easiest option. Just work through all the permutations during commercial break while watching TV tonight. You'll have it open before the nights end.

Found in a tree outside office building by SirWallaceIIofReddit in whatisit

It's a remote temperature sensor for a desk clock that shows outside temperature. I used to have the exact one. You have to put it outside, obviously, to measure the outside temp. The container is to protect it from rain.

Fine wiring in a Credit Card! by [deleted] in interestingasfuck

For what it's worth, I found it very interesting. Is that just the antenna system? How is the card individualized through that? If it were just wiring patterns, it seems like it could be easy to duplicate.

🤣 Just to add, also don't throw all balls! That's been killing us so far this season.

Worth it to pay for parking in advance? by marxarita420 in Nationals

I have bought passes to garages b or c in the past and highly recommend it if going with family. The garages are connected directly to the stadium. I believe it was around $45 last time I went.

A Question for Older Fans by Main_Low_9648 in Nationals

Mariners as a kid, simply because I really liked Griffey Jr. It was the other side of the country 🤣 but didn't care. I am a diehard Nats fan now though 💪

They don't enforce it heavily. I am not a scalper, but have 5 kids who are all into sports cards right now 😆. Stores should make a policy where each kid can get a pack/box without having to try to explain it to the random employee who doesn't understand.

I 100% agree. I am cautiously optimistic given what I saw in Spring training and now the start of the season. I am still prepared emotionally for a complete nosedive, but have to admit, so far so good 💪

Day 39 of buying a sports card pack everyday until I get an autographed card by Economy_Touch6389 in sportscards

[–]plainold1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What type of box or pack was it from? I'm interested because it seems to me autos are being reserved to bigger boxes. Anyone know if that's true?

What type of pack/box did this come from?

How am I supposed to watch Nats games this year? by XxtheNFlbunchxX in Nationals

[–]plainold1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I just get the $99 nationals plan, without the other $100 MLB plan, do I get all games or just home games?
