Yep. I’m moving this month and not renewing.

No, our lot are significantly more boring. Think Hot Fuzz, seriously. It’s that type of “ooo-er not in our village!!!” NIMBY stuck in their way type of folk.

Not as such

We just have a lot of selfish, stupid old people.

Yep, people here seem to be totally misunderstanding and overestimating how much the average person knows about tech.

I work in a role where I have to help clients sometimes access their reports via a portal. The clients ages range from 20s to their 80s, some very successful, some less, all intelligent at least. The amount of times I have had to explain what a browser is…or how to type in a URL ("but I just type the address in the Google thing!', searching for a fucking URL), and the absolute fucking basics. It is infuriating, and it is not restricted to one type of person or age group. Most people simply do not give a fuck about tech.

My daughter is 12 and has just moved into secondary school. She’s commented that a lot of her class in IT cannot use a computer. They do not know how to use a filesystem, how to use a mouse or even a keyboard as they’ve grown up with iPads/phones and being able to bash in what they want into the first screen they see.

I have no issues with the judge. He asked for clarification, got it, and moved on. That’s not being inept, that’s being a normal person. Now if he keeps doing it past this point, and it starts affecting the case because he’s incapable of understanding, then yeah that might be different.

Then the iPad is waaaaay behind everyone else. Like, 20 years.

And from the article, way lazier than I thought it would be. He’s just got an Analogue Pocket and he’s running it through the dock via HDMI. I have an analogue pocket and a Game Boy Camera. I could, and have done this. I used to do this back in the early 00s with a SNES, Super Game Boy and a video capture card during the MSN messenger days!!!

I was expecting him to actually have something cool and technical, like wiring up proper video out to a Game Boy, but no. Just a hipster writing as if a million people haven’t already done the exact same thing.

Edit: fwiw I have actually added a native video out, VGA and composite to a stock DMG game boy before. Used a bennvenn board with a cpld. Maybe I was the true hipster all along
