Eurotrash was an option in the UK for those without any satellite.

We had Sky, it was British Sex for me.

[-] Grabthar@lemmy.world 0 points 5 days ago

Had C-band satellite as a teen. All the good channels locked. But if the satellite Spacenet 1 transponder 18 was locked, you could "fine tune" the reception from say, Galaxy 3 transponder 18 by holding the step up or down button, and manually swing the dish halfway across the sky to the same position where Spacenet 1 is. As the descrambler thinks you are watching a different satellite altogether, there is no more lock. And since you never actually visited a bad channel, no way to tell with history or last buttons.

Real Sex always seemed so not sexy. I mean, I'd watch it for boobs as a kid, but I was always kind of turned off by the whole show, idk.

Kinda like red shoe diaries. It wasn't porn, it was usually some kind of shitty crime movie or student arthouse film with boobs.

Make sure to hit last, channel up, last. Foolish proof. I'll never get caught.

[-] treadful@lemmy.zip 0 points 5 days ago

Here I thought I was the only one this clever.

[-] Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net 0 points 5 days ago

This guy faps.

[-] Qkall@lemmy.ml 0 points 5 days ago

y'all remember that vcr trick that you could unscramble all the PPV channels.... golden times... golden times.

[-] Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net 0 points 5 days ago

Wait. what black magic is this? 12 year old me desperately wants to know.

[-] Qkall@lemmy.ml 0 points 5 days ago

Dunno how replies notify... but I replied to a reply on your reply.

<_<'

[-] kyle@lemm.ee 0 points 5 days ago

I have no idea. If you recorded something on vhs it didn't play it back unscrambled did it?

[-] Qkall@lemmy.ml 0 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

so what you did was set your vcr to the ppv channel you wanted. and then kept flipping between channel 3 and 4 on the TV until it just unscrambled it. It apparently had to do with the vcr's ability to like fix when old vhs tapes would get wonky and like have mess and like lines. the color wasn't always right.... but for free WWF (i'm that old) ppv and... well pron... it was great.

I thought I was the only one smart enough to devise this plan!

[-] anarchrist@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 5 days ago

Yeah but if you were watching Nick at nite the whole time, why did the channel number flick on the screen for a second?

[-] FardyCakes@lemmy.world 0 points 5 days ago

I switched away during the cash for gold commercial
