This is fantastic!

I recently stumbled upon a now ancient publication called 2600: The Hacker Quarterly. I enjoy print and it is right up my alley. It contains many neat topics and I figure this is a good post to plug it (not affiliated, just love their minimalist design and ethos). Definitely worth a read, it covers so many neat topics from phreaking to neat BASH scripts.

An absolutely fantastic publication, nice to see it still going.

If you can find it there's a 1000 page hardback compendium of some of the best articles available too.

You should also check out Phrack Magazine (an online distributed ezine that is still active, albeit with years between issues - they also have a 2024 call for writers though!) at phrack.org

Another older print publication was Blacklisted! 411, very similar format to 2600. I attended some meetups from both of these back in the day.

If you want something really ancient, check out YIPL/TAP, which was the first phone phreak newsletter (started publishing in May 1971) that was the granddaddy of 2600. You can get it on the Internet Archive: https://archive.org/details/YIPLTAP_1-91
