[Ringtone]
My parents recently got a new wired telephone at their home. It announces on the display that a call is coming in, but only starts ringing a second later.
I would love to know why that was deemed a good design decision.
Light travels faster than sound, duh.
It’s so if you’re hovering over the phone you can pick it up in silence and look like a wizard
That’s good for office work, the constant ringing gets annoying and when sitting behind the desk, you’re going to see the display light up anyhow. But yes, those settings shouldn’t be used for a house phone, I wouldn’t be surprised if that telecom company uses the same standard install for small businesses and households.
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.
Anyone else wonder how many legos those speakers ate?
Venjent is a modern legend. He will take the most random or even iconic sounds and turn them into sick beats.
