barcodes are just a series of numbers read by the scanner to identify the product corresponding to that code in a database the computer accesses and then draws price and whatever else from, while registering the sale for inventory management

bar codes are not what go off, but a thing that is usually placed under them does. The alarm is a pretty slim oblong magnet thing that sends the signal to the detectors by the door. Theyre usually not placed on cheap stuff, but on electronics and whatever they might be under the label or something.

ahhh i see. i wasnt sure if it was the tags with the barcodes that set them off or those magnetic things, or both... i never steal stuff so i wouldnt know lol shrug. i guess as a kid i was just spooked and thought it was that way.

still crazy tho when i think about it. just earlier i printed out a shipping label, went to ups store, then dude scans it with the scanner gun and it reads it and beeps and bam its in the system.

i'm like, thats just regular black ink with lines and numbers

This is a funny thread.

 

[unkletomcruze]

This is a funny thread.

Lotta dumb questions, but also some legit, pause and "

" questions...

[color= rgb(255, 0, 0)]My question is, just how many licks does it really take to get to the center of a tootsie pop?[/color]

I seriously start with the intent of licking away...but somewhere inbetween, i complete forget my mission and begin chewing on the candy. Only after I've straight gnawed on that bishh to completion, does it hit me that I was supposed to be licking, and counting them...

You mean why are the actual numbers different or why are there different channels? Its cause people in L.A. dont want the news and events from NY, etc...The only channels that change are the locals...

^Those things are called RFID tags/stickers. They're similar to the ones tagged on jeans that get removed when you purchase them. As the poster above me said, they are usually found in the more expensive items (books/CDs/electronics, etc.).

This:

Why is pink lemonade pink? (no one ever answers this)

because it's just lemonade made with food coloring or mixed with some other type of juice (cranberry, grapefruit, etc).

when someone gets a heart transplant how can they just move bones out the way without hurting the patient further?

Where does oil come from? And how does drilling work?

Do animals talk to each other? Like how do deer communicate with the rest of their family to cross the street at the same time?

Where do cab drivers get gas? And do they have to pay for it themselves?

Who performs the maintenance for cop cars, buses airplanes or any kind of vehicle the average person doesn't drive?

If you wanted to do special effects for a movie or create graphics for television programs, what the hell would you major in?

Why is their brail on a drive through ATM?

Why is the iphone screen so damn fragile when it's supposed to be some special bulletproof type glass?




  

I dropped my iPhone 4 several times already, from about 4 feet on concrete. Front and Rear glass still good.

Maybe the Vapor case that I have on helps... *shrugs*

how to make emoticon resized?

 

[triplekrown]

I get serious deja vu from dreams and then they become a reality like 6 months later. I can only move my eyes and it's very hazy in the peripheral vision.

I'm scared one day I'll have some sort of bad scene in a dream. I'm a starting to believe in predetermination/destiny because of this unfortunately.
