The beeping sound computer monitors make as they render text. Wtf?
I guess in the before times when a computer updated a monitor it was probably important.
There is an ASCII character for a bell sound, so presumably at one point in time this could be done.
Just for fun, this can be accomplished with a poorly shielded speaker/audio cable next to a poorly shielded CRT/monitor cable displaying a locally run LLM. And it will make you feel like a hax0r
Oh, I remember that effect when a tetris game I programmed made some sounds I didn't program into it. I assumed it had to do with poorly shielded cables
