What happened, Jow Forums? Our parents used to be technologically illiterates ("user, these cookies are viruses"), but the new generations of children are even worse ("user, I don't remember my instagram password"). Can somebody explain this phenomenon?

cute drawing of me

We grew up at just the right time: when the technology was mature enough to be introduced to the people, but not mature enough for the governments and corporations to realize there was new land to conquer and claim and fence off.

Sooner or later, every Wild West Frontier becomes just another suburbia.

People have always been stupid. It's always the minority that actually was able to understand the technology they are using. And generally that's us. The thing is that smartphones and such are now easy to use so that the IQ barrier to use is very low, mainly since you don't need an understanding. So basically all you're seeing is the people who were too stupid for computers now using computers.
Think generationally, every generation will have a distribution of idiots, and while last generation's idiots simply didn't use computers since they were too hard, this generation's idiots are on smartphones and twitterboxes.

Technology being dumbed down so even the bottom of the gene pool can share their nudes on social media. Technology doesn't require you to git gud anymore, it's no longer a brainlet filter, and that's a bad thing, because that gives access to all the stupid cattle.
Smartphones should have never been invented.

B-but user, we need all that fresh thot porn!

We had porn before smartphones.

>be OP
>autistic virgin
>lie to people by claiming that he never forgotten a password, not once
>act like hot shit for learning a couple Linux commands
>pretend that installing gentoo by following on-screen instructions makes you a hacker
>literally crying because people don't share the same autistic hobbies

Except 95% of people will fail to install Gentoo even if they had a manual.

Stop watching pornography.

We had that before smartphones too. Although I will definitely agree that the increasing camera quality and availability of digital camera technology to dumb thots does produce good content. This isn't enough to justify the smartphone's existence, but it's definitely a plus.

Stop falling for memes

t. Fell for the jewish memes
I didn't know Jow Forums was a bluepilled board.

>t. brainlet zoomer

>ITT: "muhhh safe space!"

Stop having an IQ lower than room temperature.

The irony is that you still masturbate.

Stop projecting your habits. Who said I masturbate?

Lying is for jews.

Porn is also a jewish scheme.

You were an idiot as a kid, too. It certainly says a lot about your current intelligence if this topic is a struggle for you

Our parents, grandparents and old people were tech illiterate because tech was "difficult" and they didn't have the time/willingness/tech affinity to learn it. Those who did are doing OK with computers.

Kids today are tech illiterates because modern operating systems including osx, windows 10, android and iOS are too easy. Even a 3 year old toddler can use a smartphone. When everything is too easy, you are not "forced" to learn.

People across the world are becoming fatter, lazier, and less intelligent year after year.

protip: shekelberg doesn't care about your micropenis

You can masturbate without porn, you know?

But shlomo cares about my money.

You go to reddit

How can one fail to install gentoo? You follow the instructions right there on the screen for 95% of the time.

The same way people fuck up cooking.
It's a mystery.

People are stupid

Nothing has changed. Just more people have access to technology. The reason it felt like everyone knew what they were doing with a computer back in say the 90s is because we actively seeked out information about it, because (unless it was for your job) it was probably a big part of your hobbies. Now instead of only businessmen and enthusiasts, every mongoloid carries around a smartphone.

by getting enraged from the compile times needed for each package because they own 1 single PC

>Nothing has changed
Except literally everything has changed.

same reason why you don't use assembly anymore

Don't fluster yourself. I bet you don't understand half of the apps that kids use and in 10 year you'll be that old guy who thinks that everything is a virus.

And I wouldn't be far off.

when I was younger I forgot many passwords and to be honest I don't remember some of them but I don't care because I know how to recover passwords. I got fucked in the ass by Microsoft when they added phone verification to recover Hotmail password

The kid I quoted asked me three different times the same question. Having the pasword recovery option in front of him.

People are lectured these days about the dangers of using the same password everywhere and making them "difficult"

Sensible people use one easy to remember password with some slight variation because it means you don't forget it

test

I've wondered the same thing

It certainly feels good to have grown up in the exact sweet spot of maturing technology, having been sort of forced to learn how it works before we can use it

no
