screenshot, probably from Ex-Twitter but I saw it on NOSTR, showing a guy saying that training a zoomer to use a PC at work is as difficult as training a boomer, with a reply indicating that there is only one generation that can rotate a PDF and that knowledge dies with us

Tablets... in use at 2nd grade...

Damn. I know whether to call you a baby or call myself a geezer anymore.

The Internet itself didn't even become widely available until I was in 4th grade or so. Windows 95 was only a year old when I got my very first access to any computing device beyond a very simple calculator.

Being "online" wasn't a permanent status, it only applies for as long as you were allowed to tie up a phone line.

I could say more, but you've heard a bunch of back in my days already probably.
