As far as I know, no, rotary phones don’t use the nowadays default way of dial tones, so even numeric inputs in call menus don’t work

It used to work at least here in the Netherlands, when you send a sms to a landline, the phone company has a tts service that reads texts like: “incoming text from zero six one… (etc) with the following text: ok boomer” and repeating that twice.

Used to be a really mechanical voice, but I’ve not had a landline in at least ten years.

You can still receive texts on a rotorary right, then it’s read aloud by some computer voice

I prefer for it to be just a warning so I can debug without trouble, the build system will just prevent me from completing the pull request with it (and any other warning).
