Originally posted by Quick Mix Ready Maybe in Canada they didn't charge for some time. I understand it uses the older pulse that telegraph used. this is why it's AT&T in the USA. Telegraph and Telephone. and I was using it in the 1990s. even though I was in the same city which was a local call to Walnut Creek the first few years, they suddenly moved the toll line and I started getting charged for &Totse and was on it a lot. I remember that wifey meltdown screaming at me and me saying WTF showing me the fucking bill.. it never charged before she explained they moved the toll-line border. whatever it was called. luckily dsl came out not long after then cable eventually. but I had been kicked off from &Totse by then along with Digital Avatar. I got booted off because of his ass though I found a 2005 rant of his saying I got him kicked off. we were the first to get booted off. then I typed in totse.com just one day just as he was moving files onto it and closing down the dialup. him coming into chat box with me playing his game of "how fast or how long you ask if it's a real person"
this is how I communicated with Jeff in real time via RTT. and this eventually a couple years later would be me being kicked off of totse.com because of 9/11 and bitching at him and him telling me feds were there hauling shit off. then the blacklist statement he would do to me if I talk about it.
this may seem off topic but its not. I love how Jeff Hunter preaches Full Transparency yet he is unwilling to be fully transparent about this.
The way to avoid that was to "bounce" between toll areas. Remember, Totse started off with phreaking as the central focus of knowledge. What you'd do is initially Telnet into a BBS within your own toll area, preferably on the fringe, and then you would TelNet from that BBS across the toll line, which wouldn't trip the meter as long distance. You kept a private list of your "path" of BBS sites you would use to bump your way over to the desired terminal. If you didn't trek properly, you would get toll charges.
NirvanaNET was a takeoff from this practice. -

Originally posted by Kev but do you really think it wouldve been a good thing for totse to stay as a BBS? it wouldnt have survived and everybody wouldve moved on to a different site no?
As soon as we found out the WWW was coming, people really started bitching. It was almost like a civil war going on inside the Totse community. The vast majority just wanted things to remain as they were. We believed that switching to the WWW would allow any kidiot with a mouse and keyboard to come in and start shitting up our world. The Suburbs were under the threat of invasion of the 12-year-olds. By remaining on the NET, the Temple would have survived past Zoklet, but the lesser gods would have their way. -

Originally posted by Quick Mix Ready what the fuck are you talking about. If you had an ISDN line or a T1 or 3 line I could see that being true. but a dialup is a dialup. the telnet is an ap on the computer. you use it to dialinto the BBS.
I couldn't afford a ISDN or T1 line like apparently Jeff had along with his 7 node copper line. This is why he was doing computer to computer line of transportation of files. from persons board to the next to the next to avoid the toll cost.
TelNet doesn't use the same transmission pathway as a phone does on the phone lines, therefore it wasn't metered. You could Telnet into any BBS in the world at no cost. Took them awhile, but they caught on and started billing as long distance, but that was only well into the '00s. The '80s and '90s, no long distance charges. We used a program called HyperTerminal. You could also set up a "shotgun", with two identical US Robotics 33.6 modems for extra speed, if you had the motherboard slots to accommodate. -

It was the FIRST THING he said after taking the podium for the first time. He told the story of the Old Woman and the Snake. "Why, oh, why did you bite me, you wicked snake!!? I nursed you back to health and took care of you, I fed you and kept you warm in your hour of need, and without my love, you would have perished!! Now I'm going to die!!" "Hsssssss... you silly old woman", said the snake. "You knew what I was when you took me in. It's in my nature."

I never realized Speculum was aware of it.
They're ALL in on it together. It really is US vs THEM. That's all it ever was. They only sent in Trump because things were getting out of control. Now, they're back to standard operating procedure. But it's all going to backfire. That's the beauty of it. Poetic justice. The shit is about to hit the fan. Better get ready. -

Originally posted by stl1 If you dont have enough money to pay then why did Trump push through tax breaks for the rich?
That's the VERY FIRST thing he did when he got in. Gave all his filthy rich buddies HUGE tax breaks, on tax they weren't even really paying in the first place, causing them to be able to cash in on HUGE tax refunds, on the tax they never paid. He threw the peasants a bone, but it was only temporary, while his filthy rich buddies enjoyed a permanent tax break. -
