Who knows. Many years ago I created a guest VLAN on our network.....it's 192.168.69.0/24. Still in use at our main office to this day! I've done it at a few clients too. A little chuckle....sure!

I don't remember exactly what year, but when I saw how handy it was to take a picture of the router label in a difficult low light situation... well I was hooked!

Same here. I have a magnifying glass with a light in it clipped to my desk but it doesn't work as well as the camera does, not even close.

Not to mention when the label is upside down on the back of a 60# UPS under a tangle of wires! ....or light grey text on a white background that's partially scraped away! ...or....ok, I'll quit now before this turns into a "Get off my lawn!" rant - haha.

Side note on the need for magnification (which has little to do with age for a lot of this stuff, I know "youngsters" who can't read the ultra-fine print on some fo this stuff), if you're an Android user and always have your smartphone on you, the Smart Tools Smart Magnifier app can prove to be a real godsend. I don't know if an iOS port exists or not.

To be honest size 1 grey font on a grey background is quite difficult.

I find most of them to be unreadable by the naked eye but, yes, gray on silver or black can look blurry or even non-existent, depending on font size.

Samsung has a built in magnifier within the OS, no need for an app install.
Found within -
Settings
Accessibility
Vision Enhancements
Magnifier
Then set the button combo to activate it when needed, I use VOL_UP/DOWN

@frase,
I think we may be talking two different types of Magnification. I have that in my device's settings, too, in an ever-so-slightly different location, but it only allows you to magnify on-screen content. That's not what I'm referring to.
The app I mention is a digital magnifying glass where you point the camera at something and it's shown, magnified, on your screen.
If Samsung does that with the setting you refer to, then it's different than other Android devices (which isn't surprising, as Samsung has often "done its own thing").

Two women were chatting in the office like this…
"My evening went pretty well yesterday," said the first.
"How was yours?"
"Terrible," replied the second. "My husband came home, ate dinner in three minutes, and went straight to sleep. What about you?"
The first woman said, "Amazing! My husband came home, took me out for dinner, and afterward, we went for a long walk. When we got back, we lit up the whole house with candles. It all felt like a dream!"
Meanwhile, their husbands were talking to each other in the office.
Husband No. 1 asked Husband No. 2, "How was your evening?"
Husband No. 2: "Really good, man! I got home, the food was already on the table, I ate, and went to sleep. How about you?"
Husband No. 1: "It was awful, bro! I got home, and there was no food cooked because I hadn’t paid the electricity bill, so the power was cut off. Then I had to take my wife out to eat. The restaurant bill was so high that we didn’t even have money left for a ride back. We had to walk for hours to get home. When we finally got there, the whole house was pitch dark, so we had to light candles for some brightness!!"
Moral:
"No matter what the reality is, the way you present it should be top-notch."

Trump dies from the virus. He goes to Hell where the Devil is waiting for him. "I don't know what to do," says the Devil. "You're on my list but I have no room for you. But you definitely have to stay here, so I'll tell you what I'm going to do.
I've got three people here who weren't quite as bad as you. I'll let one of them go, but you have to take their place. I'll even let YOU decide who leaves." Trump thought that sounded pretty good so he agreed.
The devil opened the first room. In it was Richard Nixon and a large pool of water. He kept diving in and surfacing empty handed over and over and over, such was his fate in Hell. "No!" Trump said. "I don't think so. I'm not a good swimmer and I don't think I could do that all day long." The Devil led him to the next room. In it was Tony Blair with a sledgehammer and a room full of rocks. All he did was swing that hammer, time after time after time. "No! I've got this problem with my shoulder. I would be in constant agony if all I could do was break rocks all day!" commented Trump.
The Devil opened a third door. In it, Trump saw Bill Clinton lying naked on the floor with his arms staked over his head and his legs staked in spread-eagle pose. Bent over him was Monica Lewinsky, doing what she does best. Trump looked at this in disbelief for a while and finally said, "Yeah, I can handle this."
The Devil smiled and said, "Monica, you're free to go!"
