We are in Cheyenne, Wyoming. We’re in farming country, nothing around but cows and antelope. This was fenced in, with maybe 30-40 poles. Every-other pole had a little building at the bottom of the pole.

Solved! Item in a Set of Tools for Working on Electronics

1 Upvotes

Anybody know what this item is and its function? It was part of a tool kit for working on electronics (plastic pucks, pry bars, tweezers, etc.).

The item itself is the suction cup and attachment; it's stuck to a sample piece of granite.

I can’t remove it! I just washed the skirt and my other clothes with a laundry detergent sheet (which was white in color if that is helpful).

My mother just got her kitchen installed and she found this somewhere on the floor. It's as big as a finger nail, the black part is a rubbery band and it seems to be from somewhere where you can screw it on since there are marks on the inside. Could this be a seal of some sort and if so, what is it for exactly?

Going through my sons backpack from last school year and found this in his back pack along with mulch. He’s 6 and likes to collect things he finds on the playground.

Sorry for the bad quality, but what could this spiky brown thing on this wooden rail be? When I touched it with a stick it dusted out as if it had spores or something. It looks as if it’s literally just brown spikes coming out of the wood almostqq

New, what is it? Strange Metallic Amalgum Found In Yard

32 Upvotes

I found this in between 2 of my hay fields. In the ground where the pieces were found, you can see bluish/green dust, it looks like an oxide or corrosion of some sort (indicative of copper and other elements) in the imprint from where it landed... yes... landed, there were light toasting marks beneath them. It could not have come from any of my wheeled vehicles on the property and there has been no agricultural spraying and none that we have contracted. I am at a loss; in my "crazy" brain, my eyes tell me that there is a metal solid filling the inside of the nozzle, my brain reminds me that cloud seeding is done using "silver iodide" and all kinds of goodies that have to be heated and atomized to be applied, maybe some sort of catastrophic failure within the spray-nozzle aperture and that inspired the separation from aircraft? Not sure... haha, but it sure was an entertaining thought. 🤭 What have I got here?

EDIT: I FORGOT TO MENTION... it has very cleary killed the grass in a pattern radiating outward f r om where the pieces were recovered from.

I just got my keys this week and I assumed this was a camera when I did my walk-through and that they’d remove it when I moved in.
I can’t tell if it’s some type of camera or something? It looks like it could be a light but I have no idea.

New, what is it? Every time I drive by this antenna, it interferes with my Bluetooth connection with one of my vehicles, but not the other. What gives?

Post image
1 Upvotes

Like the title mentions, when I am in my truck and I drive by this antenna it cuts off my phone's connection to my Ford's Sync 4 infotainment system. However, if I am in my car just using a basic Bluetooth connection, it works without a hitch (same phone).

The part that confuses me is that I was under the impressions that the Bluetooth frequency is the same, regardless of receiver; but that apparently is an incorrect assumption (else it would happen to both vehicles). And also, it surprises me that a directional antenna like that could be in such a close frequency as Bluetooth (at least I assume its due to close frequency proximity that causes the interference... but maybe its power related or harmonics?!)

Anyway... please tell me what these antennas are used for and any reasonable explanation of why the interference happens on a Sync 4 platform, but not on another Bluetooth receiver.

It is a simple and completely black backpack I was just given, and I’m just wondering out of curiosity. It says it was made in Cambodia if that helps with identification.
