There are angle grinder resistant u-locks which can last up to 5 min and waste several disks. They aren't cheap though and the thieves also could just cut through the rack.

You're just incentivizing bike thieves to carry plasma cutters around.

what fucking moron doesn't carry a pocket plasma cutter around anyways? it's a basic piece of gear these days.

Is there such a thing as a portable plasma cutter? Because the ones I've seen all require a big 2 foot cube with wheels on it in addition to a power outlet nearby.
