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.

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!

Hi Joan,
I'm not an Android expert, but I've rooted a Samsung (not Galaxy S4 though) and an HTC. Both went just fine.
As with most tech stuff, it's fairly straightforward, although there's always a small chance you might brick the phone. If there's two things you really have to watch out for, make sure your phone is fully charged and you are using a good USB cable! Oh, and make sure you have everything backed up
I've never unrooted a phone, but I think (and I could easily be wrong) if you wish to continue using an app that requires root, you will have to keep it rooted. IOW, having root is generally not for just installing an app that needs root, but actually using it.
Just curious, what app do you want to install? There might be a non root alternative.
(Let me know if you want to use Whatsapp to talk about this, you can DM me your number using the Email link.)
Cheers,
विक्रम

Smartphones became so common (and probably cheap) that even a street-sweeper can afford a 5 inch Samsung S5...
(The phone itself cost about $500 and you can get a plan from $5 a month)

I wonder what class you are in if you are ready to pay 5 times for a less feature rich brand...
