Subj: US PHONE FREAKING

USA Phone Freaking is done with a 2 out of 5 Code. The tones must be with 30Hz, and have less than 1% Distortion.

Master Tone Frequency = 2600 Hz.

>1 = 700 & 900 Hz

>2 = 700 & 1100 Hz

>3 = 900 & 1100 HZ

>4 = 700 & 1300 Hz

>5 = 900 & 1300 Hz

>6 = 1100 & 1300 Hz

>7 = 700 & 1500 HZ

>8 = 900 & 1500 Hz

>9 = 1100 & 1500 Hz

>0 = 1300 & 1500 Hz

>Start Key Signal = 1100 & 1700 Hz

>End Key Signal = 1300 & 1700 Hz

> Military Priority Keys 11=700 & 1700 ; 12=900 & 1700 - I don't recommend using these. ( The method of use will be explained in a separate note. DO NOT DISCLOSE WHERE YOU GOT THESE FREQUENCIES TO ANYONE!

Naw man, Rhiana Rouge was where it's at.


I loved how old PC gaming mags had ads for porno games in them, they were so hard-up (boom) for advertising dollars. Especially weird were the porno ads that clearly used to have nudity in them, but someone had hastily photoshopped a bikini on to the woman.

yeah there were also porno ads that censored any dirty word so it read like "get some hot s*x with n*ked w****s" or someshit

he's a knight who is about to kill the dragon (nicknamed daisy) and loot the returning hammer (+4 combat and you can used it up close or as a ranged weapon) from the crypt behind the dragon's lair

When I was a kid I played this game with my uncle and the dragon was always camped so one morning he called and woke me up at 5am to log in and kill her

my mom came and said, "honey, your uncle Sky is on the phone he said to wake up so you can get on the computer to get a 'returning hammer'"

lol

that sounds like a cool uncle

It used javascript to infinitelly spawn windows every time one was closed, and the audio sample I remember "Hey everybody, I'm looking at gay porn!" Knowing how to use the task manager was helpful, as was keeping the sound muted as a matter of course on your work machine. I think there was another variation that used "You are an idiot. Hahahahahaha."

this was Last Measure iirc, of GNAA fame. im p sure the harlequin fetus image was involved too.

you people must have had rotary keyboards in your day

a long time before my day, bill gates and gary kildall were street hoologans getting into mischief

one day bill gates kicked gary hard in his jewels and he never recovered

bill gates went on to found the microsoft empire while gary fell down a ladder and his CP/M fell into obscurity
