I don't think that comic fully applies to this situation since, as TAG just stated, a lot of the value that was stolen was sentimental or just specific to him (ie. the files on his computer).
The thief probably just wants to sell the stuff to make a quick buck anyway. And sure, maybe they guy needs the money to not starve, but that still doesn't justify theft.
I really hope you get your stuff back TAG. Is terrible that this happened to you. :(

One the one hand I want to push the button to brick the laptop. On the other hand, if I do that he'll probably toss it in the bin.
Also in my bag were 2 birthday cards from my inlaws and gf congratulating me so maybe (maybe I'm like 99% it's not gonna happen but maybe) whoever stole it sees that and dumps it somewhere to be found. Though since I live in Europe a dumped bag will probably be destroyed in a controlled detonation by EOD due to terrorist scare.
EDIT: also is it just me or is the renault clio the only car that exists that doesn't also lock the doors from the inside when it's locked with the key not in the ignition? I mean ffs my old 1996 passat used to do that sheesh.

That isn't a thing in our dutch socialist utopia where people that work hard (i.e. me) have to pay about 45% income tax to support jobless/homeless people. Literally existing in the netherlands while being jobless gets you about €1000 a month and your rent is 50 to 75% paid for you so you get like 800 dollars to spend on food and stuff.
It's just handicapped ass asylum seekers that want to buy loving weed or cocaine or whatever.
