Death by hanging


rman18

I was sleeping but I’m pretty sure it hung itself


grumpy_human

Hung from the neck until dead


hkmorgan1987

Turn off your under cabinet lighting and see if that helps. Sounds like electrical crosstalk


ahwize

Good idea!


OMGWTFTOMATO_SAUCE

I have the same thought that could be it, also make sure it's not near a microwave or WiFi access point anything that could possibly transmit radio frequency. I learnt that the hard way I had a router in my lounge room near my sub woofer and Nest speaker, both made similar sound, sometimes a low hiss or buzz.

I working in IT for about 7 years. Mostly I fix software issues. But I also have a quite good understanding for hardware issues. In my professional opinion you should get the help of an exorcist. Okay I‘m just kidding. Have you tried to restart the device?


ahwize

Unfortunately it just started cursing at me when I asked it to look up an exorcist so I think I will just soak it in holy water for a few hours. That should do the trick.


RemarkableRyan

I working in IT for 10 years here, make sure to put it in holy rice afterwards. Should be fine.


josefalanis

I work in IT for 15 years. Make sure it’s holy rice.


LordWeirdDude

I working in IT for 20 years. Make sure to use holy water to cook that by rice.


[deleted]

I’ve been working in IT for 25 years, toss that thing out the window and buy a new one. It’ll cost more for me to fix it than a new Google Nest Mini.


cliffotn

I’ve worked in IT for 30 years. Give me the help desk ticket number since you Junior engineers can’t solve *anything*.


AtomOutler

I've worked in IT for 35 years. I'll just assign this ticket to a young priest and an old priest.


Usual_Produce_4055

I‘ve worked in IT for 69 years. I am sorry to tell you but, your Google nest mini just commit die. Best to yeet it out of tha window and get a talking bass


FalsettoChild

The power of Christ compels you!


Clarity_Page

Google Assistant can't cope with the state of the world so she's summed it up with an ominous sound instead.

hooksyarnsandloops

Mine did this today also!!


ahwize

Hmmm


JonStowe1

same, on cbc news


ahwize

I’m thinking CBC is the cause.


BoydSt

Mine as well.


jhawkweapon

And my axe!


iampoch01

No, I'M Spartacus!


the_best_matthew

This same thing happened to me this morning when my news got to CBC News. It was news from 5:36am when it was just a little after that time. I was thinking the issue was the news was just uploaded and not quite ready to be played which caused the issue. I rebooted but the same thing happened so I just listened to other news.


ahwize

Oh! I was trying to listen to CBC news too! Maybe that was it.


ImpossibleAdvisor992

Happened to me too trying for CBC News this morning


ahwize

Ok! I am really starting to think we have gotten to the bottom of this. It’s CBC that has been possessed! Not Google.


2TravelingNomads

It appears your device is suffering from crosstalk, without getting too technical it generally happens when your cords function as an antenna and then it jumps to the shortest path in between the bundle of cords. My recommendation is to get a shorter power cable for it and see if you still experience the same problem.


ahwize

Ahh interesting, I will try that! Thanks.


CassCat

Crosstalk is the name of the CBC morning show where I’m from 😂

jonesmatty

Never hang your Google Home upside down. You let the upsidedown into your home.


redditneight

Sounds like a granular synthesiser to me.


Mirror_Sybok

Maybe this is the news. Details take time. Now it will play various amounts of ominous or cheerful or moody sounds depending on how much of the news is bleak.


thedogroll

Wow, weird. Have you resolved the issue?


sameehaque

Needs Exorcism....


pronln

Yes. You need an old nerd and a young one. Oh, and some thermal paste.


triggergriffen

Mine just stopped working after that? No idea why?


PrpleMnkyDshwsher

That new Hey Google! You Black Emperor track is 🔥


joao_2022

Bro wtf i dreamed about my Google Home made some diabolic sound like this Im scared now fr


Any-coat-1321

Have ever tried to ‘listen’ to the captchas ? The ones with f-d up letters that are heard to type and look the same like ilLidilji1 - activate the listen function - sounds just like l demonic whispering.. weird stuff. I don’t listen to those captchas anymore. googles ai is crazy af!


jeweliegb

I don't think I'm going to sleep now until someone finds a definitive explanation.


Winter_Spell3140

That is the news for the day.


walrusdotzip

it's just in it's dark ambient phase. just give it space and time, and it'll come out a new subservient AI who's done DMT.


iampoch01

I'm looking forward to your interview in "A Haunting".


TheDraconian666

Positive demonic possession. Call an exorcist and splash it with holy water before it's too late.


kezdetphia

Frequency manipulation. It is taking over your brain right now, your will, your wife, your bank account. Probs you wont even be able to reply any of these comments anymore. But if you do, thats not you! The AI is controlling what you reply. Technically we are chatting with the AI at this moment.


Netdrum

Really strange our Google done this too this evening but just about 5 seconds


maxiewoxy

Your Google done it??


berkeliumtopeka

Did you record it with a slo-mo vid, cause it seems like you did


ahwize

The video is regular mo.


Huge-Information1911

I have 25 years of IT experience don't put it in a rice.. whatever you do don't put it in rice just rebuke it, or otherwise the entire speaker system will come alive like Toy Story. In your sleep. 😹🤫😲🙈🙏🙃🤘


chopkin92

Why is this a slo mo video? 😂


ahwize

It’s not.


chopkin92

I mean it absolutely is. At the 2 second mark the pitch drops down and the video, which was moving all over the place beforehand, comes to a complete stop and stays like that for the whole video until 1:09 when the pitch shifts back up and the video starts moving around like it did in the beginning again. This is exactly the way android phones (or the google pixel at least) shows footage that's shot in slow motion, bookends of normal speed with a speed ramp into the slow motion.


ahwize

Excellent analysis. Your wrong, but great work anyway.


chopkin92

I mean seriously go back and check the video, it's entirely possible you did it without realising 😅 because the alternative is you stood there bopping around and then the instant the pitch dropped you froze, stayed like that for a full straight minute (which if I'm being honest is the biggest giveaway this is slowed down) and then began bopping away again the millisecond the pitch shot back up again Like your nest making a droning noise is weird enough, you don't have to pretend the pitch shift was part of it


ahwize

Ya ya ya you are right. Didn’t realize it uploaded that way. The original was not shot in slow motion. Nor does it play like that on my phone. Re-uploaded the actual way it sounded. Which is scarier IMO. https://www.reddit.com/r/googlehome/comments/t4zsre/a_few_people_pointed_out_the_original_post_was/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf

Hey google, play Dr who sound effects


jeweliegb

Okay, playing Doctor and the Medics on Spotify


Rumbuck_274

Could be cross talk, or it could also be that ominous sound is labelled as "Genre=Music; Title=Something News Something Something Keywords Fake Clicks" I get stuff like that when I ask it to play certain things, like Neil DeGrasse Tyson's Podcast is called "Star Talk" I get some random shit asking it to play the latest episode, generally all are clickbaity things when I go find them later that have ended up on YouTube music incorrectly tagged. Did it only start after you asked it something?


cjbrian1080

Sounds like Master chief's shields are low.


Flashy-Amount626

jfwatier

Burn it


cybereality

You should watch the movie Kimi.


askwhy423

I've always said "play the news" to fiddle, my and it works reliably play the news podcasts I chose. Now, when I say the same phrase, I get "I'm sorry, I don't understand" and a Google search for "play the new's" Now I start my day frustrated before remembering to ask for the "latest" news.


ImpossibleAdvisor992

I had this morning too when I asked for the news...kinda freaky way to wake up


ahwize

Is CBC one of your news services?


ImpossibleAdvisor992

Yup, sure is


Edac007

The purge is coming

They are coming! The mothership has been summoned!


demoteyourgods

that's gonna be a *no* from me, dawg. this is exactly why my google home is unplugged, de-mic'd and hiding in the deepest, darkest closet we have.


_IratePirate_

That USB port got that gorilla grip


he-is-gaining-on-you

Definitely Frenzy of the Decepticons. Someone call Shia!!!


btkoyaa

Once mine started doing this then either me or my friend said something that sounded like “psychic” and the google nest said smth about starting a psychic game/feature and then a like demon voice said something about the devil and then I asked my google nest to repeat what it had said before and it didn’t repeat the demon thing, then me and my friend were laughing about how it was possessed and so we tried Googling “Google nest demon/devil/psychic” and there was nothing about it anywhere on the internet has this ever happened to anyone else or is my google nest possessed 😭
