    I don’t know how it is in other countries, but at least here in Germany teletext is still a thing and works on all the larger channels.

          Körperliche Züchtigung: bodily desires edit: mistook with süchtig, actually means corporal punishment
          Devote Sklavin für dich: you are correct
          Fesseln+Knebeln: Bondage+gag
          1,99€/Min.v.FN Mobil abw. -w-: No idea edit: $2.49/min. from landline, mobile varies [ad]

          This is one of the more SFW pages actually. There are lots of pixelated nudes, as well as a cryptic page of colored rectangles, which you are supposed to scan with an app for the full AR experience and also buy as an NFT?

              For non-German speakers: “Hot Uschi20+ will get your tube red hot without foreplay”.

              The phrase „Rohr zum Glühen bringen“ literally means “bring a tube to glow” and originated back when electronics used vacuum tubes. I’m not German so I have no idea how common it is today but I assume this bit is for an old audience.

              Great find, I missed that.

          This is one of the more SFW ones. You know what, I’ll make an ImageMagick script to crop & aspect-ratio-correct the rest of the ones I took and upload them. Coming soon!

          Edit: Imgur album, feel free to report as NSFW lol
          - omg, the “SEX SEX SEX” sign is actually flashing
          You can also view most German teletext services using their app for some reason

      Teletext is a fun art form. Too bad the graphics are only really used for tarot and phone sex ads.

      Anyway, here are some of my recreations of Czech cartoon characters using the online editor at edit.tf:

      I have more but I am rate limited. Imgur album
