You don’t gotta be impossible to steal from, you just gotta be more annoying to steal from than the next guy.

- Gigachad 2mo agoThey will still steal your seat, lights, wheel, and any other bit they can get. Sure you can use all number of locks, security bolts, and stripping the bike down yourself every time you leave it, but it’s sucks. You’d rather public spaces just be safe.
- wafflemaker 2mo agoJust follow the old Eve online adage - don't fly what you can't afford to lose. If there's lot of theft and you can't store bike at a secure place - have a cheap bike.
- Gigachad 2mo agoYes that's the compromise we have had to live with. But some countries like Singapore and China are showing it is actually possible to just solve theft so you don't have to deal with your bike being stolen.
- mlrtime 2mo agoThere are places in the US like this as well, but are general smaller / tight knit. I don't know of any high trust dense urban areas.
- PunchyHamster 2mo agoIn Eve online they shoot intruders that come in your corp space to mess things up... and it does make space a lot safer. not sure the game you want to go with examples
- wafflemaker 2mo agoNo idea, only played in low sec. There you shoot everyone. So it's kinda "safe" - no surprises, you expect everyone to try to kill you. Maybe except your own militia, and that's not always. But the rule is good. Can't say I always adhere to it, but used to loose a lot of stuff , and thanks to the rule, many wasn't that expensive.

- Alephinitesimal 2mo agoI learned this. I had what I thought was a pretty good lock, but the chain was cut very clean. The cut was almost perfect flat, so I assume they used a power tool.
