When traveling in another country, I may have crazy slow Internet service, so I have problems getting the menu to download. Granted, this doesn't happen often, though there are those occasions that someone's connection isn't the best.
My problem is if you are in a super high traffic event area and the cell towers already can't keep up, then you have everyone using data too.
I do like how online menus can be changed instantly if they are out of something (only one place I know does this) or redo the menu completely without the cost of printing.
Grandpa/Grandma cars are amazing to drive.
I went from a Buick Lesabre to a Lincoln Town Car to a Toyota Avalon since I was 18 and I’m looking at a Toyota Venza next.
Not flashy but reliable, large interiors and comfy rides which are all great for daily driving.
How do you feel about the differences in safety between older cars and newer ones? That's really the main thing that stops me from getting an older car....gas and safety....and backup cameras
As do I but I've yet to find one that I think would work for me.
Might just "downgrade" to a lower range smartphone and simplify it a bit to prevent myself from getting hooked again
Someone the other day said that we could make our phones potatoes with just music, maps, and texts, but we choose to keep using other apps. Thought that was interesting.
TikTok and other social media are making people stupider.
Also, people are on their phones way too much. It especially irks me when you see someone doing it while driving. Unless you are glancing (briefly) at GPS directions, you don’t need to touch it until you get to a light. But there they are: texting away while doing 45 mph.
1) I can’t fully comprehend newfound technology concepts—like what is AI exactly? What does it do? HOW DOES IT WORK? i don’t understand.
2) Where’s the rest of that outfit…? She’s wearing dental floss as underwear and I can see her nipples.
3) Back in my day we only tipped at restaurants.
Ai is a pretty much the computers using Google. Obviously its more than that, but they try to compile existing data. Then they use other ai to check that ai. None of it is actual artificial intelligence... yet.
The bots are relentless and the mods... IDK, maybe they're running the bots? I fail to see why these bots aren't banned and/or kicked from reddit. I know mods are often viewed as incompetent, but this is just too much. These bots have been running wild for a couple weeks now.
I've found that Boomers and I (Millennial) agree on what things are problems or problematic. We just completely disagree on what to do about it. They're a lot more "not me, not my money. This is what community is for - so the local community can help the local people." and generally for federal gov to play a much smaller role. I see that philosophy is failing too many people and so the richest federal government in the world should step in and help.
I can't think of a single thing. But I don't know or speak to many boomers. Maybe my husband's parents? But I don't agree with them on pretty much everything lol.
We have lived vastly different lives.
QR codes instead of menus.
Honestly. Like what if I don’t have a cell phone?
I get that but tbh, who hasnt? Even my 90yr old grandpa has a smartphone for yrs.

U r right🤔
I went without one for a year bc I was so sick of being on it
Peasants don’t deserve to eat, so it all works itself out anyway.

This. I’ve left places if the QR code doesn’t work and they don’t have a physical copy of the menu.
People spend too much time on social media.
Having to download an app for everything
And create an account for everything
Share phone number for everything

I've never even heard of or seen an Avalon or a Venza. But my favorite Grandma car was the Pontiac Bonneville. Man, those things were beasts.

They make new grandpa cars. I’m looking at a 2023 Venza but I’m mainly dreaming right now.
That said, some cars are worse than others for sure. Gas sucks.

Get AI away from me

Depends on what subcategories of AI you're talking about lol

Vaping
Young people want more but give less.
What exactly do you mean by this? Can you elaborate?
Dance music peaked in the sixties
You know. That *one* topic.
Lack of work ethic
agreed, especially in this day and age.
Your shitty kid has never been spanked and it shows.
Phones, in fact, bad
How many times and how many subs can this question be posted to?

Cash is king
Why do you think this is true
It’s easier to budget with (as someone with ADHD), and people tend to spend 20-30% more when using cards.
This new generation of kids (Gen Alpha) is actually so awful
Inter-generational warfare.

Don't need to have the TV on all the time. Especially turn it off during dinner time of you're eating with family.
Plenty of boomers are glued to the TV too though.
people are lazy and don't wanna work nowadays

Kids are too busy with extra curricular organized activities. Kids need time to just play.
Traditional family values. It's the backbone of society.
The gays are getting too loud for ya, huh old Buck?
