Cars, Security and a Peek into my Life
It’s for a pickup truck.
There’s about 1,000 lbs spring inside.
Leave the blue thing on until it’s installed, and then cut it off. Because the once the spring expands, good luck squishing it back together.
Push on the back the car, and if it bounces more than 1.5 times, it’s time for new ones.
At work, you’re probably required to change your password every 3 months or so.
It’s to kick out an attacker that may already be inside your system.
That’s it; simple and logical eh.
Because remember the golden rule – it’s not IF you’re compromised, it’s WHEN (more here)
Small business owners – it’s good practice to do this at least once every 3 months, ideally more.

Read it online at Autonet.
I saved the saddest for last – the note that horn emits must be a sound associated with a warning device, meaning musical tunes are not allowed.
