loving dial-up, how does it work?


Quote from: wikipedia
The dial up modem was originally invented as white noise to play over the intercoms in POW camps during WWII, reports of bleeding, screaming, and "searing pain" was reported from several prisoners. Certain parts of the dial up process contained frequencies that caused pain to the inner ear. All workers at the POW camp wore earmuffs, which (not effectively) blocked out the dial up modem.

Dial-Up was how the Internet originally was for everyone. Then broadband/cable came along and now only poor people use dial-up.
