How many of you have rooted your Android?

It's common, but it's only safe if you use protection.

Not on the Desire. If I plug it into a USB host (as opposed to a charging device) it asks whether I want to Sync, Mount, Charge or something else (I forget which). When you select mount the PC recognises it straight away - there's no separate mount option.
I doubt it. If it isn't intuitive then we need to fix it. - Chris Maunder
So it's clearly Samsung's acid trip and not Androids. That's good. The though of a robot on hallucinogens makes me nervous. :)

It's certainly not something to truffle with.
I have CDO, it's OCD with the letters in the right order; just as they ruddy well should be

ROTFL - there's people in Tassie growing truffles, I wish I knew their secret.

Found Samsung Kies some time back to copy my Outlook contacts to the Captivate, but now it's not connecting. And thus, the temptation to just root the damned thing, offset by the very real possibility of bricking the stupid phone. You'd think it would plug into USB and just show up as a mass storage device, but apparently not the case. And so, I hesitate. Is rooting common and safe, and I'm just being a sissy? :)

But you need to plant the right ones, which means you need the right conditions and the host trees, and you can have them in the ground for years without them actually germinating.

Wow! I thought they were like most any mushroom - moist, dark and you're there. Much to my surprise, I get various kinds of fungi springing up in the yard here in the middle of the Mojave Desert! There's one kind I discovered while planting a tree, about two feet underground. It looks and feels like soggy bread, and never comes to the surface. Another pops up now and then above ground beneath the ruelias. I'd never thought of these things growing in arid places. Weird...
