    gen-z and alpha don’t know anything about computers.

    frankly, i have no idea how anything is even maintained. it’s probably on the backs of millions of first and second-gen immigrants.

    some of these dumbasses i work with can’t even navigate basic windows features–and these are college bound young adults.

      gen z here, you’re thinking of young gen z or gen alpha. us old gen zs have a lot in common with milenials, as in we’re the ones doomed to export to .pdf and “fix the wi-fi please”

      It’s funny, if you have a generation that hasn’t ever needed to use Windows, wasn’t trained on it, pretty hard to knock them for it. It would be the same thing as taking Windows users and dumping them on Mac, or worse, dumping them into a rando Linux distro and saying ‘good luck, why do you suck at this’. Its a pretty popular YouTube video topic for the tech sphere lately though.
