re: Bob Saget conspiracy thread

He has Clinton information

The family either already knows or suspects that it is embarrassing or damaging and doesn't want it to tarnish whatever reputation he still had.

Considering his whole act was being a dirty old man, how can you claim a tarnished reputation?

Because most people are remembered as a saint (deserved or not) when they die. Did you miss all the loving tributes when he passed?

I now think the wife had him whacked and hotel staff was involved.

Finding out how any person dies doesn’t really impact my life. Guess we can close down murder investigations and move on once someone dies.

Something is strange here, but the coverup is usually worse than what is being covered up. If the family is doing this to protect his reputation it is just leading to rampant speculation. I can only imagine what they are going through, but getting lawyers involved is not going to do anything but add more curiosity and publicity to the incident. Not a great move if they are trying to keep things quiet.

Probably just bumped his head while surfing the web to produce a documentary about the Clintons, could happen to anyone.

Because we need and must know what happened. You would never understand.

Yes, some electronic locks keep a record of when the door was opened (even without a key so they can track when you must have left). Some are actually connected to the front desk system and they can check at all times while others they have to take another machine to the door and read its memory

I’ve never heard of this, and I have a lot of experience with those systems. Maintenance can hook up a reader that they bring to the front desk and it’ll say which keys (guest key, maintenance, housekeeping, etc) opened the door and nothing more. There’s generally no reason for a hotel to spend extra money developing a program to track whether someone voluntarily enters or leaves a room. The entire point of tracking key use to is to prevent the staff from stealing from guests, not to aid investigations

Most hotel computer systems are extremely dated. Marriott uses one from the 80’s and one from the early 2000’s and Hilton uses one from the early 2000’s as well. You’re not getting cutting edge entry tracking tech in virtually any hotel anywhere in the US.

And regarding the camera questions, you’d be shocked at how many hotels have basically no working cameras. 90% only have working cameras in back of house and maybe a few at the front and side entrances and parking lot. Again, I’ve never heard of a hotel, no matter how nice, having fully functioning hallway cameras on more than 50% of their floors because they’re only concerned with repairing the cameras that monitor employees and back of house areas

The thing about that old software is that it actually runs in a predictable way. Just last weekend I had to wait 10 minutes to pay this jeweler because his Windows-based POS terminal jammed up.

If I were running a business I'd want a minicomputer (maybe one in an emulator, but still) running shite.
