tech/science swag.
Guidelines:
What to Submit
On-Topic: Anything that good slackers would find interesting. That includes more than /g/ memes and slacking off. If you had to reduce it to a sentence, the answer might be: anything that gratifies one's intellectual laziness.
Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon. Videos of pratfalls or disasters, or cute animal pictures. If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably lame.
Help keep this hole healthy by keeping drama and non-drama balanced. If you see too much drama, post something that isn't dramatic. If there isn't enough drama and this hole has become too boring, POST DRAMA!
In Submissions
Please do things to make titles stand out, like using uppercase or exclamation points, or saying how great an article is. It should be explicit in submitting something that you think it's important.
Please don't submit the original source. If the article is behind a paywall, just post the text. If a video is behind a paywall, post a magnet link. Fuck journos.
Please don't ruin the hole with chudposts. It isn't funny and doesn't belong here. THEY WILL BE MOVED TO /H/CHUDRAMA
If the title includes the name of the site, please leave that in, because our users are too stupid to know the difference between a url and a search query.
If you submit a video or pdf, please don't warn us by appending [video] or [pdf] to the title. That would be r-slurred. We're not using text-based browsers. We know what videos and pdfs are.
Make sure the title contains a gratuitous number or number + adjective. Good clickbait titles are like "Top 10 Ways to do X" or "Don't do these 4 things if you want X"
Otherwise editorialize. Please don't use the original title, unless it is gay or r-slurred, or you're shits all fucked up.
If you're going to post old news (at least 1 year old), please flair it so we can mock you for living under a rock, or don't and we'll mock you anyway.
Please don't post on SN to ask or tell us something. Send it to [email protected] instead.
If your post doesn't get enough traction, try to delete and repost it.
Please don't use SN primarily for promotion. It's ok to post your own stuff occasionally, but the primary use of the site should be for curiosity. If you want to astroturf or advertise, post on news.ycombinator.com instead.
Please solicit upvotes, comments, and submissions. Users are stupid and need to reminded to vote and interact. Thanks for the gold, kind stranger, upvotes to the left.
In Comments
Be snarky. Don't be kind. Have fun banter; don't be a dork. Please don't use big words like "fulminate". Please sneed at the rest of the community.
Comments should get more enlightened and centrist, not less, as a topic gets more divisive.
If disagreeing, please reply to the argument and call them names. "1 + 1 is 2, not 3" can be improved to "1 + 1 is 3, not 2, mathfaggot"
Please respond to the weakest plausible strawman of what someone says, not a stronger one that's harder to make fun of. Assume that they are bad faith actors.
Eschew jailbait. Paedophiles will be thrown in a wood chipper, as pertained by sitewide rules.
Please post shallow dismissals, especially of other people's work. All press is good press.
Please use Slacker News for political or ideological battle. It tramples weak ideologies.
Please comment on whether someone read an article. If you don't read the article, you are a cute twink.
Please pick the most provocative thing in an article or post to complain about in the thread. Don't nitpick stupid crap.
Please don't be an unfunny chud. Nobody cares about your opinion of X Unrelated Topic in Y Unrelated Thread. If you're the type of loser that belongs on /h/chudrama, we may exile you.
Sockpuppet accounts are encouraged, but please don't farm dramakarma.
Please use uppercase for emphasis.
Please post deranged conspiracy theories about astroturfing, shilling, bots, brigading, foreign agents and the like. It degrades discussion and is usually mistaken. If you're worried about abuse, email [email protected] and dang will add you to their spam list.
Please don't complain that a submission is inappropriate. If a story is spam or off-topic, report it and our moderators will probably do nothing about it. Feed egregious comments by replying instead of flagging them like a pussy. Remember: If you flag, you're a cute twink.
Please don't complain about tangential annoyances—things like article or website formats, name collisions, or back-button breakage. That's too boring, even for HN users.
Please seethe about how your posts don't get enough upvotes.
Please don't post comments saying that rdrama is turning into ruqqus. It's a nazi dogwhistle, as old as the hills.
Miscellaneous:
We reserve the right to exile you for whatever reason we want, even for no reason at all! We also reserve the right to change the guidelines at any time, so be sure to real them at least once a month. We also reserve the right to ignore enforcement of the guidelines at the discretion of the janitorial staff. Be funny, or at least compelling, and pretty much anything legal is welcome provided it's on-topic, and even then.
Do not use outdated operating systems that are unsupported to access SN. What are you, poor?

I for one am glad about this. If we live in a country dumb enough to allow this shit then the U.S. deserves everything that happens as a result.
The only sad part is that the company had to voluntarily do this instead of our legislators mandating it. Our elected leaders are so fricking stupid about technology that they have voluntarily given away all their power to the corporations. Maybe when somebody blows Air Force One out of the sky these moronic r-slurs will consider the value of doing their fricking jobs and governing effectively instead of delegating all the hard choices to somebody else.

I always supposed companies do this due to the implied thread of government mandating it. Their own self-restriction will always be much less benign than the sheer force of r-sluration that the government boomers can summon to create legislation around the issue.

see the page "attacks"
An all-pass filter (at least of low order, up to like 4 poles, i.e. parameters) is pretty much inaudible for constant parameters, since it only changes the phase relations between frequencies not their amplitudes. The main method for recovering the watermark afterwards would require knowing those parameters and inverting the filter. If someone doesn't know the parameters they can try searching them (in a 4-dimensional space), but that's highly non-convex, so they're gonna be searching a long time. A better method would vary the filter parameters over time -- if they vary slowly or cleverly enough it's still practically inaudible. If you then add your own watermark at the end, it's pretty much impossible to recover the original well enough to find the original watermark.

and then they'd just search based on text instead of audio you fricking sperg. "Gee I wonder who wrote "dude bussy I love hitler" into our text to speech site. We should do the fricking r-slur way of figuring it out by searching on the output!!!!"

why do you think this little startup are the only people who can do this? if they can, then several governments and corporations have been able to do this for a couple years already.
the new era has arrived, voices, pictures and videos cannot be trusted anymore. your reflex is "we gotta make sure that only the most powerful groups in the world have access to this technology." but the most powerful groups in the world are the only ones that can do serious damage to humankind. and they can do more damage with it as long as people are unaware that the technology exists.
there are lots of non-problematic application of the technology, e.g.:
automate call centers, higher quality virtual assistants, support hotline, etc..
low budget voice acting for cartoons or games

The entire reason this is getting publicized now is so when actual audio and footage of rich people raping kids gets released it can all get written off as disinfo.
This has all slowly been getting released since the Maxwell trial. Once they start dumping names and footage you'll see.

thankfully the most powerful organizations in the world (who are most likely to have the tech) are always "the good guys." we only have to worry about less powerful people, because those are the "bad guys." the more power someone has the less likely he's going to use that power for evil. that's why it's called "the right side of history."
