Boomers are 60-80, so at least a few on the younger end for sure.
I'm a little surprise to hear that, which I just confirmed. I was expecting the baby boom to be 1945 to maybe 1955.
The fediverse still has a lot of the pitfalls and user bahaviors we have on normal social media, but it at least actually gives us working tools to fix or reasonably mitigate those problems. And if it doesn't they're working on it.
As an older millennial, I am OK with this.
So we tied a corn to our belt, as was the style at the time
If this is the retirement home, then I’m perfectly content with that.
Damn, can't not read that in Abe's voice.
I was born on the border of genx and millennial. And this is the most giving-up assed comment I've ever seen.
Thanks, no, I'm still young at heart.
Explains all the racism and misogyny.
Hey, when the internet first showed up, there was a vibe, rooted in GenX, to exist in a free and open source space because it’s the common sense thing to do.
As for the rest, yeah, it’s quiet here. Like the e-version of sitting on my porch and having random people step out or drive up for a bit of conversation before fucking off to elsewhere.
Can confirm the Gen X vibe
Welcome to the retirement home
We all run Linux here
It is the Year of the Linux Desktop.. in 2030~~~
Where everyone runs Linux, probably has ADHD, and everything is the fault of capitalism. Now pull up a terminal and complain about landlords with us.
The LAN parties will be epic.
Someone will get taped to a ceiling for sure.
Gimme gimme gimme a LAN after midnight....
Proud to be an elder millennial.
I'm a baby millennial born in 95 and I also want to be retired plz
oh
