Meh, padlocks are not for securing valuable property or for securing property against someone with any sort of tools at all. They are for preventing opportunistic theft. 30 seconds to defeat the lock is plenty long enough for that. Of course, that is a pretty stupid design, so good video nonetheless. If I owned one already, a little solder or permanent loctite on the inner screws would probably do the trick.

Mostly though, The lock company lost me at $100 for the lock. A traditional dial is not *that* hard to work and I'd be worried about false negatives and dead batteries even with a high-quality finger print reader. Just buy a $10 padlock at the hardware store to lock up your garbage cans, or proper u-lock or quality cable to lock up your $600 bicycle (ie, something that will require 15 minutes to defeat).

.... cringe... not sure I can even watch the whole thing, after only 30 seconds I feel like slapping her in the face.

Spend 30 seconds on google and you'll figure it out.

I can't figure out what that jig he uses for the first 30 seconds or so is for. It looks like it is smoothing/sanding, but it is producing some big chunks.

Also not sure why he didn't cover the crack with plexiglass or something on the top, as I'd think it a pain to have that big chunk unavailable. That or epoxy the crack, which leaves it clear and open. It is a nice design feature, but just losing that space would drive me nuts personally. Plus the fear of what did happen happening.

For the insane price of the board, they should have done better sound design on the video. When the one guy starts talking about 30 seconds in, the music is so loud it is hard to hear him.

Glad we have the extra 30 seconds of black screen time to absorb and reflect on what we just witnessed.

If it was Eric, the movie would be over in about 30 seconds

I shoot regularly (often multiple times per week). My lazy firing rate has splits (time between shots) of approximately 0.2 seconds. I can do that for a long time (many minutes before I slow done). That is a rate of 300 rounds per minute. My fast splits are approximately 0.12 seconds. I can't do that for very long (probably one magazine). That is a rate of 600 rounds per minute.

An AR-15 on full auto fires at approximately 600 rounds per minute - twice what I can do on semi-auto. Using a competitive shooter as an example, and taking into account magazine changes (which with training are done much quicker than any of the operators in AR-15 to failure tests I've seen), and assuming lazy splits of 0.30 seconds, a competitive shooter can probably fire at a faster rate per minute than a novice can on full auto (i.e. well more than the approximately 150 rounds per minute a novice shooter achieves when taking into account magazine changes).

The thing is, it is well known in military and firearm enthusiast circles that the massive reduction in accuracy when shooting on full auto does not give the perceived payoff. You have much less control when firing a fully automatic firearm. You hit your target less often. Semi auto plus aiming = hits on target. At the range he was shooting (300 to 350 meters), the same lunatic deciding to aim his firearm would have resulted in less wounding and more fatalities.

Any ex-military here? Chime in.

Something that took 40 years to grow can be processed in 30 seconds.

Should I be happy or sad?

Video will only load the first ~30 seconds or so for me. I'll try again later.

It was at least 30 seconds before I realised this wasn't some kind of parody sketch.

Waited another 15 to 30 seconds and you could have avoided that, you had ONE job.

Body cameras that can be turned off are useless. Had these cops had 1/2 a brain between the 3 of them, they might have known about the 30 second backup and just waited, erasing the proof of their evidence planting and putting one more innocent person in prison.

It's still anti-Trump video. The donkey managed not to tweet something completely bat-shit-crazy within 30 seconds.
