People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.
RULES:
- Mark NSFW content.
- No doxxing people.
- Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
- No international politcs
- Be excellent to each other.
- Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.
- If a tweet (or similar) makes a statement of fact, either mark it as "satire" in the body or provide the original source link backing up the statement

Only if they're not hardwired in - lots of people where I live just stick them to their doors so there's no wires.
Tfw the bell is stolen
If it's hardwired in, it's not significantly harder to steal than otherwise. Clipping a couple of wires connected to a doorbell transformer is significantly easier than dealing with whatever mechanism is used to release the doorbell from it's attachment.
Also, you would be stealing a camera that will film it's own theft and upload the footage on it's way out.
Additionally, these devices aren't exactly expensive anymore, not a whole lot of value in stealing them. Even if stolen, not a huge setback to buy another one.
There were a bunch of videos posted of people stealing them when they first came out.
There’s a security screw.
Weird way to refer to your bodyguard but ok
That’s my safety screw.
After all, it is on the bottom near the power.
