Sir, I'm impressed. Are you a sound effects artist in real life?

Do you, by any chance, take requests? I'd like to hear again the sounds of old modems dialing.

Easy fix: call a fax machine with your phone :D

don't ask me how I know...

[–] lightnsfw@reddthat.com 3 points 2 months ago

I know because I used to work on a help desk and if someone called about their fax being down I would call the line to see if I needed to send it to the phone team or the printer team.

Well this is a new bother for me, you got the commas in the wrong spot.

It should be

Bap, ba da bap, ba da bap, ba da bap, bap... Ringtone.

Seeing what you can do with that mouth has me predictably moist (audible sound of peeling one warm slice of bologna from another)

I was once playing in a classical concert. In one piece that my instrument wasn't needed for, I was given the job of controlling the volume knob on the amplifier we used to connect to the keyboard (with organ sounds), so the organist could play a range of dynamics.

I had not turned off my phone.

I got a text during the middle of the concert. Sitting right next to the amplifier.

I'm an electrician and I used to keep a voltage tester in a pocket beside my phone

That fucker would light up and buzz like crazy, and I could always tell if I was about to get a call or a text based on the buzz

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

that still work or was it the GSM signals specifically?

[–] FistingEnthusiast@lemmynsfw.com 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

GSM, it was a very sensitive wee thing though

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Venjent is a modern legend. He will take the most random or even iconic sounds and turn them into sick beats.

[–] TedZanzibar@feddit.uk 2 points 2 months ago

I assumed you were linking Mario Piu's take from 15 years earlier. It was a club classic.

[–] pedz@lemmy.ca 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)

AFAIK they did that because of GSM interference and the phenomenon mostly disappeared not because those cheap little speakers are mostly extinct, but because the technology used by cell phones changed. In fact, GSM is being phased out in most countries.

[–] DakRalter@thelemmy.club 2 points 2 months ago

I have an ancient clock radio and it still goes off if my phone is close enough.

I like that as I hate unexpected calls, so it's nice to get a heads up.

[–] Widdershins@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

Anyone else wonder how many legos those speakers ate?

[–] sidebro@lemmy.zip 3 points 2 months ago

Kids of today will never know.
