How to lock a bike, 2 extreme cases
(thelemmy.club)
Pictured above: a bike locked badly to a good quality rack. Just a wrench, and a thief takes the wheel and bike away.
In the photo below: my solution to properly lock a bike to bad, low rack made wrong (to “dish rack”, outside Decathlon 🤦). Instead of inserting the wheel, I put the bike across the structure, so I can easily lock wheel and frame.

Great story. I believe this is also an example of the difference between "intrinsic" and "extrinsic" worth. If one is content to value things for what they are to oneself, rather that what they may be to others, life becomes very much simpler.
