People always get pissy about these generation things. It’s not about some people being better than others. There was a period of time where being able to use a computer meant being able to take a tabula rasa machine, install an os using a bunch of disks and a large manual, and figure out how to fix anything without the internet. There was also a period of time where home computers were becoming common. Those two periods overlapped and created a group of non-professional people mostly (MOSTLY) born between 75ish and 85ish that are much better able to use and troubleshoot tech than people born before or after.
But you always end up attracting a bunch of douches saying “I was born in (whenever) and I have a degree in (whatever) and I know more than people blah blah blah.” Yeah, I’m not talking about professionals or hardcore hobbyists, I’m taking about regular jerkoffs that had to figure this shit out without specialized education or the internet. It was a unique period that created a group a people different than what came before or after. No judgement, it just is. For some reason certain people take offense to that.
Yeah, I went back and changed it to a strikethrough to avoid more confusion.
