This is like those street interviews of x type of person(women, conservatives, gym bros, Americans) that they only show the absolute morons and try to paint the whole group this way.
And then there are some cough some of my classmates cough that barely know how to save a word document to a different location other than the default documents folder or how to full screen a presentation quickly (i.e. not having to go to that tab and then clicking full screen, the faster way just just to click F12 (idk rn if that’s the correct one) or the shortcut in bottom right)
I could never imagine them working out how to put files on a CD, bet they don’t know how an optical drive looks like, and funniest thing is, every singe one that had problems like this was an iPhone user, just shows how technologically uneducated the average iPhone user is (as you can guess I do not live in the US, and not like I live in a wealthy country, I do still live in Europe though)

I was in IT support and I was seriously asked to “support” a (l)user that wanted me to let her know where was a Word document she had saved a few minutes prior. Flabbergasted, I just could ask “didn’t you check where did you put it when you save it?” Her answer: “What do I know about that? I didn’t study computer sciences.” 🤦♂️
It’s getting to the point where I can’t help but roll my eyes sometimes.
The fact that so many computers don’t even have disc drives anymore almost makes this point completely moot. Most people use smart devices or radios for music now. For me, I like using them because I’m still salty about a crappy CD player that I used to have that loved scratching the ever-loving shit out of CDs. I had a Walkman that used to do that too.
Did anyone ever bother teaching these kids how to do this?
If you don’t have a CD player or even a disc drive, you’re probably not going to prioritize learning how to use a disc drive to rip a CD. I bet most of the people who laughed at this don’t know how to put information on a floppy disc, but that’s fine apparently. It’s almost like technology ages over time and becomes less popular.
A lot of gen z knew/knows how to burn cd’s.

Honestly so tired of this kind of post
