The beeping sound computer monitors make as they render text. Wtf?

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
