I MADE A CUSTOM 3DS THEME

Bottom Screen full Scroll:

It includes:

Looping music (End of the Summer-Sonic Runners)

Custom Sound Effects

Looping bottom screen art

And art from the IDW Comics for both top and bottom screens.

I've only tested it with "Anemone Theme player", don't know if it will work on other hombrew theme apps.

Hell yeah! Had an awesome find at a thrift shop today - A 1929 Southwestern Bell Telephone technical manual and installation guide for phones of the era.

Maybe you're asking why I think this is awesome? Haha. That makes sense - Well, first of all, I -live- vintage stuff. Antiques, old books, weird ephemera of the past. This definitely fits in with all of that, and has a gorgeous, punched leather cover with the gold stamping. Such a slick piece of history.

Second, I'm an old computer nerd cat. Back in the early '90s, I was a phone phreak - a phone hacker back before mobile phones and even alphanumeric pagers were a thing. It was in these days that "Ma Bell" (Southwestern Bell) was a big Queen on the scene, in her prime.

What were common phreaker practices back in the day? Well, it was all about exploration and curiosity. We would wardial (using our home landline connections and modems to dial a huge list of numbers in a row to try and find systems on the other end rather than regular phones - I'd leave it on all day and come back with a shorter list of various systems to dial in and play around on), we would build blue (and other color) boxes from RadioShack parts to use payphones to make free calls and do all sorts of rad tricks, we would prank folks that deserved it or use said tricks to disrupt schools and business, we would navigate voicemail systems and change automatic messages, and we would generate credit card numbers (which was incredibly easy back in the day) to make free calls to our first girlfriends in Canada. Well, that last one was mostly a me thing, haha.

Basically, payphones and early phone systems were a wonderful, incredible playground for me and I have SO many fond memories of these times. To have a book like this in my hands feels like I just looked inside the Ark of the Covenant and instead of melting my face off, it just glowed real bright and whistled a 2600hz tone sweetly into my ears.

This has so many cool photos like the ones above, and lots of radical technical diagrams, too.

As a bonus, there are hand-typed notes from a division head telephone engineer that wrote about systems they were building in Galveston, TX in the '60s:

Anyways, this is such a cool relic and I'll probably not be able to bring myself to sell it.

Did you know I wrote a verse about being a phreaker for a song with Nerdcore legend YTCracker wayyyyyy back in 2010? Well, now you do. You can hear that here (I'm the second dude, of course):

This crossover collage is a Christmas gift to twisting-echo, as I love her work, and I'm also thankful for the likes from twisting-echo. I hope you like it, Twisting-Echo. I know it is two days late, but I you had a Merry Christmas and will have a Happy New Year with your friends and family.

A side note for everyone else, I had meant to make this collage before Christmas and post it up on the day, but I ran out of time. I would have liked to have made other Christmas gifts for the other DeviantART users I'm fund of, but before today I hadn't been on my computer since the 10th of November. Real life out in the way with helping my family and then getting ill the week before Christmas. Those who would have also liked to have gotten a Christmas gift collage or meme might have to wait for next year; as long as history doesn't repeat itself like it did this year. My tablet is more of an "staying up to date online" tool than a collage making one.

Phreak the Planet

Saw one of these old friends a few months back.

It's becoming harder and harder to find payphones after the mass decommission, so I always take time to have a little moment whenever I do stumble across one.

Memories... Sweet memories of RadioShack-powered boxes, mini tape recorders, calling my long distance girlfriend, disrupting the asshole staff at my Junior High, learning neat tricks to show people, and just having harmless fun before the Internet truly hit.

I just know internally, tinkerbell was screaming crying throwing up when zarina found out how to make different colored pixie dust

Uhhhhhhhhh I think I accidentally got access to an old neopets account that either isn't mine or got hacked into and everything about myself was nuked and replaced. In there.
