Because @sanitation@lemmy.today was unable to properly add sources, I helped them out by looking for something on Wikipedia:
The tone was discovered in approximately 1957,[9] by Joe Engressia, a blind seven-year-old boy. Engressia had perfect pitch, and discovered that whistling the fourth E above middle C (a frequency of 2637.02 Hz) would stop a dialed phone recording. Unaware of what he had done, Engressia called the phone company and asked why the recordings had stopped.[10]










Yeah, evolution, sure thing.
But reading that text causes unpleasant emotions and I am really really saddened to learn there is so much parent induced suffering.
If you do the evolution thing, please just make it affect you personally, not an immature and dependent child.
If I’d be a billionaire, I would wander around in Idaho, promise those parents a free vacation, save all the kids and put the parents inside a chamber full of Bullet Ants. That would be fun and pleasing. Live streamed for $9.99 a month.

peoplebeings who downvote will be on my priority list 😏
