I'd personally consider the whole concept of a vitality curve to be rather fucked up. It's been all but abandoned by the biggest names behind it (GE, MS).

It's very different when the trigger is locally a not-so-great guess followed by shipping the audio to a remote service that can make a slightly more informed guess.

Since the start of 2018 those numbers have gone down quite a bit, mostly due to the shake out of "dollar gate", leading to some of the popular local tournaments no longer reporting results to the IFPA. Despite the local rankings d

Security cameras often explicitly lack audio because of these laws. The other devices you mentioned all have primary functionality that doesn't depend of recording nearby audio arbitrarily. The possible exception is Siri and Google

The telephone is only relevant in some jurisdictions. For instance in Illlinois (an all-party state), you cannot record a private conversation . There's no mention of a phone or telecoms, and you should expect to get sued if you'

The history of Stern is a little crazy. Sam Stern founded Stern Electronics with the assets from Chicago Coin and Seeburg. Seeburg had previously owned Williams, but spun it off into its own company when Seeburg went bust. Sam Stern had man

The bigger issue with public wifi is even actually finding your bank's server in the first place. HSTS largely saves the day here, but is far from universal. If any non TLS requests are in the request chain, and you don't have an

Even creating an app, the hoops are non-trivial. Due to the scope required (gmail.send), app verification and approval is required. I've been toying with writing a credential helper to obtain the oauth bearer token, but Authen::SASL::X

Huh? The magic password is the token. The "scoping" options are just a label (I suppose this might have recently changed), mostly targeting folks who are looking at using legacy mail/cal/card clients with only user&#x

Even now, some large traditional sites put static public IPs on workstations. When I was a lbl.gov, you got a (minimally firewalled) public ip via dhcp, and the hostname sent by your workstation was used to create a dns record of foo.dhcp.l
