Thanks Joan. I actually started with a 33K modem, and when the V92's came out I was a happy boy!

Ah, you youngster! I cut my teeth on a state of the art 300 baud in '81.

You are a mere kiddie!
I started with a teletype attached via an acoustic coupler on a regular phone line in 1975!
Cutting edge stuff, back then.

In '81 I used a Digital LA20 as a teletype for a couple of months before we switched to VT100s running at an incredibly fast 1200 baud.

You're all kiddies!
In my day when we wanted to send a message to someone we had to carry stone slabs with text carved in them!
Alright, I confess...
I've never done anything serious on the internet without cable

Well, I'm not quite as old as you claim to be. In my day, we had mobile communications.

If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

I remember discovering CP using a 64/128K ISDN (Information Subscribers Don't Need was the acronym used by the telco companies because they hated it) and published my first few articles on that old hardware.
Single core CPU's, clock rates still measured in gigahertz, 50 lb monitors...and the weird thing is, I'm basically still writing about the same stuff -- the process of software development really hasn't improved much, imHo.

Yep, that definitely looks like a 2000 website.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Wouldn't it be <the person offering the alcohol> who gets arrested?

Actually, yes. But I got arrested by my parents as well when I got my first rush

Hello all,
Samsung Galaxy S4 here. I'd like to root it and unroot it after installing an application.
Any recommendation? is rooting a really dangerous process? if anyone here has done it... which method would you recommend? and would you recommend it or not?
Thank you all!
