Are they doing that to steal the actual drive? That seems like a lot of work to steal some 2.5" hard drives that you'd still have to fence.

FORUMS NECROMANCY but uh so i saw Mac Sabbath a few months ago and there was this bit the main guy did during an extended guitar solo (from slayer mccheese) wherein he pulled a 12-foot straw out of his goofy jumpsuit and sat down with one end in his mouth and a roadie poured a tallboy in the other end, and then after the song was over he shouted to the roadie "what kind of beer was that anyway" and the roadie guy shouted back "heineken" and the dude goes "HEINEKEN?!" and there's this brief moment of silence where nobody in the building makes a sound

a silence that was shattered when i bellowed gently caress THAT poo poo - PABST BLUE RIBBON and the dude pointed at me and howled YES and they started the next song and welp that's my story okay bye

yeah the real nice looking digital vhs effect requires like a pretty high end system rendering a few minutes of video for hours or some poo poo. you ain't getting that on a cheap phone app

even the computationally expensive attempts don't get the crosstalk, luma smear, and dot crawl looking correct, let alone realistic-looking noise. god forbid they try to emulate a VCR/camcorder UI or a tracking error

This is the ideal video aesthetechnique. You may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like.
