- SoftTalker 3y agoI lived in Chicago at that time, you heard those car alarms constantly and they were just ignored. I still remember the sequence of beeps, whoops, and buzzers of the popular alarms. For the device in TFA, I don't see what prevents a thief from just bypassing the thing with a jumper from the battery + terminal.
- Eisenstein 3y agoDo you remember the the birds which adapted their calls to mimic the alarm noises?
- bagels 3y agoThe mocking bird in my backyard knows all the car alarm sounds, it's part of his daily routine.
- TeMPOraL 3y agoI guess it wasn't only me who mentally associated that sound with "uh oh someone's car was hit by a small branch carried by the wind" and/or "a cat walked over the car".
