There are commercial flights....? What the fuck does a single person need a whole airplane for?

[–] HopFlop@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 10 months ago

Yeah but cant you just remember the orientation of your USB porta after having used them for a couple of years?

This can be interpreted in both ways

You like to sit in the middle of the alley? I prefer a seat personally...

There is a split in gen Z: The ones who didnt use a computer growing up and those that did have one (and also the time to mess around with it). But I feel like you cant group them together.

Except gen Z didn't grow up with just an iPad, at least not the majority. A good amount of people had (or have) access to a laptop or family computer. Thats why I say that the gap has just gotten wider. Some people, eg. the ones that just had an iPad and all they ever did was social media and mobile games - sure, they know very little about computers. But the ones that did use computers (and thats not a small amount) do really know how to use it - which is not limited to the more or less office-focused skills of older generations.

I dont think this is the case. I feel like there just is a much wider gap because some people grow up without a computer (they may have one but not see the use of it) and others do. I bet you'd be surprised both at how non-tech-savvy and at how tech-savvy some genZ-ers are.

I have had people asking me for help because their "keyboard was capitalizing everything" (caps lock was on) or being amazed by touch typing. But there are also many people who are (at least somewhat) tech-savvy and it's not so few people either.

... that you CANT see through walls? Seems like a downgrade to me...

Thats like saying "free refills dont exist, you pay for them beforehand".

Middle class? First class tickets were never for the middle class. Maybe it's just that

  • business class it good enough, even for rich people
  • American Airlines' first class is so bad that the first class passengers just go to other airlines...
