So if someone calls in that there is a suspicious looking* dude hanging around, and the police find the suspicious looking dude in possession of tools, then that can ruin his day. This is one of those areas where the cop has a lot of discretion since a lot of things could be burglary tools or be perfectly innocent. Lock picks are one of those things that it will be harder to come up with a "lawful excuse" for though.



I know a cop that managed to get a guy charged with burglar tools for having a rock and a garbage bag on the front seat of his car.
There had been a rash of smash and grab burglaries in the area, and they found this guy sitting in his truck in the back of a strip mall that had been broken into before.

So word of warning: find a rock at the scene of your break-in, don't bring one with you.

Another thing about IT and locks: If you have physical access to a system, you own that system. If your IT guy can break into your server room unnoticed, you have hosed up your priorities and need to rethink your security plan.

I have to say, as a former IT guy, you always have to get into weird places where no-one has a key except for the building manager who lives half way across town, never answers his phone, and is unwilling to give you a duplicate to do your drat job. Easiest way is to slip the lock with your pocket knife if the door opens out. If the door opens in, you have to pick it.

The data must flow and people get pissy with more than 10 seconds of downtime. I've had to pick a lock just to get to a breaker box because the building manager refused to answer me when a breaker tripped after a power outage overnight. gently caress these guys. I shouldn't have to pick a lock to keep my company running.

Hello,

As you know, there is currently an outage. Unfortunately, I am unable to restore power to the servers because I cannot access the breaker box; it is in a locked room. I have been attempting to contact Building Manager and there has been no response.

gently caress you all,

Buddy, I think if you asked most people, who open carry, their reason, it would be; self defense, protection or something similar. Which takes it out of the realm of fashion and sticks it into the realm of security. For example, that Linus Blanket that I love to play tug of war with. You know the one. drat I do love it when we go to the park and I get to chase that ball as well.

shitPosting COnstantly Syndrome (say "sh-iht-POE-sst-ING KAHN-stant-LEE SIN-drohm") is a problem in which a poster's shitpost levels are out of balance. It can cause problems with your posts and make it difficult for anyone to like you. PCOS also may cause unwanted changes in the way you look. If it isn't treated, over time it can lead to serious health problems, such as probation and banning.

Most posters with PCOS grow many small shiposts in their chemically imbalanced brains that are impossible to hold in. That is why it is called shitPosting COnstantly Syndrome. The shitposts are not harmful to the poster but lead to thread imbalances.

Early diagnosis and treatment can help control the symptoms and prevent long-term problems.

Posts are social messengers that trigger many different processes, including comedy and content production. Often, the job of one post is to signal the release of another post.



For reasons that are not well understood, in PCOS the shitposts get out of balance. One shitpost triggers another, which triggers another. For example:

The thread gets out of balance. Normally, the forums make a tiny amount of shitposts (FYAD). In PCOS, they start making slightly more shitposts. This may cause you to stop making any good posts, get mad at people on the internet, and grow extra terrible opinions.
The body may have a problem using good posts, called being a loving idiot. When the body doesn't use good posts well, shitpost levels go up. Over time, this increases your chance of getting banned.
The cause of PCOS is not fully understood, but genetics may be a factor. PCOS seems to run in families, so your chance of having it is higher if other posters in your family have it or have irregular posts or are banned. PCOS can be passed down from either your mother's or father's side.

Symptoms tend to be mild at first. You may have only a few symptoms or a lot of them. The most common symptoms are:

Red titles.
Weight gain and trouble losing weight.
Being quoted and called an idiot. Often shitposters get thicker and darker posts, deliberately taking up horrible opinions to be contrary.
Thinning hair on the scalp.
Irregular posts. Often posters with PCOS have fewer than nine decent posts a year. Some posters have none at all. Others have very heavy bleeding.
Sexual problems. Many posters who have PCOS have trouble getting laid (virginity).
Depression.

You are just as safe with a concealed gun. Open carry is for nothing more than parading around that you have a gun, praying for somebody (black thugs or muslims hopefully)to gently caress with you so you can shoot them. (Also, for the pipe dream that you'll be the hero who stops the terrorists when they start shooting up the local Wal-Mart.)
