Maximum resistance to picking.

@alice I don’t particularly want to test that idea, which I guess means the lock does indeed have lick resistance.
@Fruan but have you ever tasted fresh padlock?
You never forget your first one. -

You never forget your first one.@alice in the sense of “Now I know never to do that again”, one presumes.

If "maximum" is about 20 seconds, I'd hate to see their less-secure locks.
@alice Maximum resistance you can defeat in 20 seconds? What, did Chuck Schumer make this lock?

@alice Were they even mushroom or otherwise pick-resistant pins?

@alice@lgbtqia.space No no no, clearly it's maximum resistance to being picked by a consumer. They simply know in advance that their lock is absolute garbage and simply wanted to warn you. Someone's gotta provide the garbage-tier locks to compare against, after all, so they're really doing the world a service

@alice I assume it's a typo - "Maximum resistance to pickling". Put that baby in vinegar for 6 months and they guarantee it won't be a pickle by end of it. It'll still just be a disappointing lock.

@alice lovely nails indeed!

@alice Easily drilled out... There is even a jig from the manufacturer for it, complete with bit, which wears out fairly fast.

@alice lol keyway so wide you could drive through with a truck.

@alice The less secure ones have disc locks for minimum jiggling resistance.

@Fruan uh, yeeah...that sense.

@Fpccraig nope.

@sasutina13 that seems like massive overkill for a lock that's so easy to pick.

@er4z0r I actually had to use "top of the keyway" rotation, because it's a relatively short keyway, and the pins are long, so a turning tool and pick are hard to fit with room still left to work.

@lexLohr do you mean wafer locks?

@lexLohr do you mean wafer locks?
@alice Ah, yes. Sorry, I am used to the German names and this one doesn't translate 1:1.
-
@alice Ah, yes. Sorry, I am used to the German names and this one doesn't translate 1:1.
@lexLohr ah, I what's the German name? And is "disc" a reference to the wafers, or something else in that style lock?
-
@Fruan you might be on to something.
Of perhaps it's "Maximum resistance to licking"? You'll never make it to the Tootsie roll core.

@alice This is like the countdown to eyaculate xD

@alice The German term is "Scheibenschloss". And yes, it's in reference to the wafers that interlock with the core unless pushed exactly into the middle. The interlocking part is sometimes called "Schwalbenschwanz" because of its profile.
