Question for Gen X

no different, my parents would not have footed the bill for a cell phone. also would have been to lost in school work to care any way.

sending nudes certainly would've been easier

Probably I'd be one of those degenerate and low IQ zoomers.

This kid is your average Jow Forums user, age and everything.

*you're

a lot of people love muslims bacause of 9/11

Vietnam all over again. I love when pointless wars poison our culture

Probably just as insipid.

Zero difference.

We had the internet and computers back then too, and I still don't use my phone much at all unless I need to look something up.

>Imagine spreading the word of truth
Wow its like (((you))) don't even attempt to hide anymore on this shit. Filthy kike.

Probably wouldn't have changed much. Been using the internet for a while, and started on Jow Forums in middle school.

>inb4 underage
I'm 24.

Yeah, just hide in the shadows goy.

what is my generation if born in 1987? I've been called millenial, gen-x, and boomer. No clue what I is!

(born 65)
Nobody told me about BBS when I was a kid, I wasnt aware that any kind of external networks for personal computers even existed. Everyone used B&W text-only screens in the late 70s and early 80s and so computers looked like the most boring thing on earth to me. The only thing I ever did on a computer in the 80s was play a stupid dungeon game. I remember in the early 80s about 1/5th of the job ads in the newspaper were for computer related work, so if someone had told me about programming and how easy it was I could have an easy job back then.

People disagree on the exact cutoffs for different generations, so I guess just choose the closest one that you like the most (or hate the most) and go with that.

I identify a lot with the monster sipping 30/yo boomer so I'll go with it

youre not gexX, maybe genY or genZ

My mom spent my entire end of my childhood and most of my teenage years trying to KEEP me away from the computer. I was drawn to it, I loved it, the freedom to learn whatever you want from whoever....

I didn't have full access to a computer really until I was 17 and going to University. My parents were very strict (Mormon) who insisted that the computer is put in the living room and only used sparingly for fucking geneology research.

Yeah, that doesn't really make your post any better

Good choice, brother.

Your: that belongs to you
You're: "You Are"
Yore: long in the past

now let's go back to OP's post...
>How would your life have turned out
Is the subject of the sentence the life that belongs to you? Are you the life? Or a life in the distant past?
Only one of the following options is grammatically correct, and it's the one that OP picked.

Not any different. I'm 28, born in 1991, and I was using my dad's Windows 95 desktop when I was very young, I guess from when I was 4 years old. In fact I remember using a Windows 3.1 laptop of his, and I might have been even younger then.

And we did have internet on my dad's Win 95 machine in the 90s, maybe a couple years later than 1995, I'm not sure. Ah, the old 56k modem. youtube.com/watch?v=gsNaR6FRuO0

I bet some people on here now are probably too young to have ever used dial up internet. Where the fuck did the years go, it wasn't that long ago that I was young goddammit.

So yeah, I've been using the internet and computers since I was pretty young. Most people my age didn't start using it until a bit later. My dad didn't even work in IT but he just liked having the latest gadgets so we had computers and internet before most people I knew. Mobile phones too.

The Win 95 machine we had was 133 MHz, Intel Pentium. I think the hard drive was 2 GB and RAM, I'm not sure, maybe 16 MB or something.

You're a millennial. Definitely not Gen X. And "boomer" is only ironically used on Jow Forums. Real baby boomers are of course far older than ~30.

Millennials:
>1981 to 1996 a widely accepted definition
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millennials

Gen Y, which is millennials, yes.

Gen Z, no user. They're born in the mid-90s onwards. Much younger than him.

>In other words, for Bloomberg, Generation Z was born between 1997 and 2012.

Impossible to predict. As a kid I spent hours reading the encyclopedia. If I'd had Google and Youtube as a nine year old, I have no idea. Access to information is completely different now.

>Pre-Internet
In 8th grade I got into Mt. Biking, and I wanted to learn all about it. So, I went the Mt. Store and got some free catalogs, and ordered the full manufacture's catalogs from the card mailer inserts. Three weeks later I was swamped with literature on every major bike brand. I learned all I needed to know: components, attachments, differences between brands. I formed an educated opinion and bought a bike. It took a month. Now it would take me an afternoon, or a weekend.

I do know how to actually talk to women in person. It used to be the only way it worked.

i'm already a zoomer. without techloligy i'd probably have gone into truck driving (literally the only other thing i'd be able to tolerate other than working with computers).
