Some of them used to contain bog standard DSLRs, so they were worth stealing.
Someone actually stole a bunch of cameras but couldn’t offload it and ended up getting caught when he tried to sell it on craigslist. Lol. Apparently the camera units are proprietary in the office shelf.
Roughly 2.5 kg.
8.17$ per kg equals 20.43$.
I don’t think dubious scrappers taking obviously stolen copper are paying fair market value. You’d have to throw in a vcr or two amd haggle a bit to get enough for a dub.
I know. I never traded scrap, but I guess many or most won’t trade in so low numbers, I’d assume professional scrap traders have a minimum amount to not waste their time.
That doesn’t sound quite right, but I’m sure there’s some platinum in there to make up for anything short of 5 lbs.
What’s a “photo enforcement camera”? Speed camera? CCTV? Detects you then just drops on your head?
Speed traps or stop light cameras, generally.
CCTV is considered surveillance, not enforcement.
They take your picture and then you get a mostly automated letter with the picture saying you have to pay a fine, but mostly you can ignore them. I lived near an intersection with one, every time the left turn light turned red (which happened way faster than normal) the picture flash went off for the last three or so people going through the intersection, presumably all of them getting tickets. I assume they are also recording the license plate numbers of everyone going through the intersection regardless of perceived violations.
coomer elementary school?
Don’t know how there would be that much copper in there.
are you sure? There’s only 1 way to find out
Hey it me, ur mayor. I give u permission do it do it
Perhaps you’re not the intended target audience, then.
And what would it be doing in there?
You’ll never find out just sitting here talking about it. Whatever it is, it’s gotta be exciting!
Every trap needs bait.
Worms for fish. Fish for bears. Copper for meth heads.
Conducting electricity would be my guess?
It’s a camera in a box, pretty sure it doesn’t use that amount of power
So much wrong in this picture.
- Hey, want to commit a crime?
- photo enforcement sucks and doesn’t really work and is just used as tax revenue for cities
- meanwhile speeding continues as normal with all the casualties that come with it
- Cities, however, do need this revenue to not go bankrupt because they’re all designed wrong and can barely get any tax revenued while still affording details like infrastructure maintenance
- Cities should redesign their rod infrastructure instead. Where you still need car roads, design the roads for the speed you want. If you put a highway in front of a school, people will drive a 100 miles per hour because that is what the road was dest for.
- Cities should start changing laws to push for livable designs focused on humans beings instead of cars everywhere. You’ll need less cars, have less accidents, get more tax revenue from more local businesses
Sir, this is a shitposting forum.
Normally I’d be on board with this, but the picture is literally in front of an elementary school! If there’s any place that I’m ok having speed cameras, it’s in a school zone.
But yeah, if it’s a speed camera on a major highway raking in cash for everyone going 10 over? Fuuuuuuuck that.
GUNS ARE OUT CARS ARE IN
Buy chilean copper instead.
Really? We live in a world where shitposts need disclaimers??!
😢
In Finland we steal dynamite from construction sites and do some sudden nightly dismantling. No crackheads needed.
let the intrusive thoughts win
