If my 4.5seconds of research is right. the Siri assistant listens all the time looking for a fingerprint of Audio that matches the key word siri. Apple are not dumb, hey seriously you people should buy X or Y could possibly trigger an overly admissive algorithm to record. my time foil hat might be wearing thin from years of continuous use but could apply have not picked the word very carefully that people would not think it could be triggered accidentally? And if that innocent looking check box stayed checked when setting up your itoy that says you want to help Apple that accidentally triggered recording can be used for any purpose really advertising or trying to “fix” the algorithm so that it triggers more easily. now google dropped the do no evil facade what’s to stop them from lowering the algorithm threshold so it records nearly everything and then when these cases come out they will blame the user for picking a bad trigger word. it’s already been shown that an ultrasonic loudspeaker can trigger Alexa and Siri from a distance without normal humans hearing. or could tv shows have the same audio fingerprint triggering the recordings. things like Shazam break a sound down to a number who is to say google and apples system for doing the same is not perfect, and they are leveraging that? they are gonna come and take me in my sleep tonight. Wtf three letter o in a row and it says I’m posting ASCII art yet every day there are reams of Nazi swatstickers posted. I’m done with slashdot. dupes and damned Nazi filters that don’t work. it used to be great now it just grates on me been fun but I am Done changing my password to something random and not recording it.. another UUID bites the dust. It is not that low but it is gonna go

Won’t save a dime but I am certain c some Congress critters buddies will profit from the new system if at the very least they will use this as an excuse for the $7/min call costs, I mean shit that’s more than a sex call costs

Both are apt in this context could someone enlighten me I don’t wanna rtfa that’s not how it’s done round here...

If only we could get the FCC to make the slashdot editors to read slashdot at least read the fucking headlines and use a brain cell or two and determine it’s a fucking dupe!!!!

66000mph??? surely there is a vector where it’s already heading towards the sun and all we need to do is lift it up out of orbit not stop the object dead and reverse its direction? That would require a lot less energy.. I’m Probably wrong I’m no rocket scientist

That’s the real news that they still have 10k people on the books milking them for all they can while providing what exactly??

It’s on their website it says their process takes 4grams of co2 and 40kwh of energy to make each carat of diamond.. It’s green energy so who cares they are not adding to the climate issues directly, sure that energy could be used for greener purposes but the point is in the climate there will be less carbon floating around and less poor people making ends meet... not a win for everyone but you can’t please all of the people all Of the time!! So 40kwh of energy at grid prices of about $0.20/kw that would be $8k per carat and that’s assuming it includes capture of the co2 source carbon.. switch that grid power for solar wind farm onsite and they could probably make money...

Someone underestimated the originality of this story... duplicate from earlier except this one claims an extra 15k victims...

It’s a duplicate story from yesterday... but at least it’s not a direct copy and pasta this has a little more information about the division name that made it...

Msmash just go back to copy and pasting duplicates... at least they are not misleading as we already know your headlines are bullshite by reading the earlier postings...

I hate Facebook.. but the mainstream Media in Australia for years have pushed and pushed “find us on Facebook” if they were really paying attention and not just out for a free ride they would have realised they should have been pushing their website not fakebook as the way to find them... they did this to them self.. but Facebook is nasty and an evil cesspool.. I don’t know who to root for.. if Facebook was a newspaper just reprinting stories other papers/channels told them to publish for free, how can these sources now have the sh!ts cuz no one is reading their paper..I don’t get how either side think they are in the right and are owed something by the other???. Someone should have been doing the numbers, and they probably did but FOMO got in the way... did I mention Facebook is just a leech on society and provides zero good, that’s could not be found elsewhere for less cost “privacy or dollars “ etc... and I thought this law was introduced because the MSM sites were getting no traffic cuz fakebook was skimming the story and printing it.,, if that was really the case how is it now that traffic has plummeted.., maybe the new sites should do a better job of advertising their wares.. oh but that would cost them real dollars!!! Again I just don’t get either sides point.. Facebook is basically breaching copyright but they are evil...

Dupes dupes dupes it’s dupes all the way down!!! I hope he just gets a duplicate of last months pay check

Oh wow I always thought they were pretty liberal with their gun laws in the USA but public covid shoots now that sounds like some sort of video game that I could probably get into...

Another super dupe from the dynamic duo of dupers.. FFS do your job properly and stop post duplicate stories just to get your quota!!! We need a dupe tag so the owners of /. Can see how shit the editors are at their job!!!

If we print out all the dupes that beauhd has posted on rice paper in 4pt fonts and place them atop of Everest it would be taller than 1m...
