Tablets makes boomers even more useless with computers. The amount of intellectual laziness with one of the most important invention of modern age is absolutely staggering. It is crazy how you can use this shit for years and have absolutely no idea how this shit functions in the slightest and not be able to perform the most basic of task on a computer
>No idea how to even reach their e-mails
>No idea how to even enter a web address
>Absolute inability to even explain and replicate anything in the slightest
>Due to everything above, the inability to even adapt to the slightest change whatsoever
And of course, I'm the one stuck having to throw out everything I was doing to babying someone through it that cannot even answer the most basic of questions

@coolboymew my mom once asked me "how to download a gif"
@abloo well that's 150% more advanced than my mom
She had to get a stupid online formation, I get called up because she wanna replicate what she did and she had no idea of anything. I wasn't there, how the fuck should I know what you did
Couldn't get to her e-mails. I dropped serious hints, and then the outright answer and even then it wasn't enough. Can't even follow simple instructions
Got into the e-mail, completely lost. Couldn't know what to do. Turned out she previously used the Win10 mail program which first shows a wrong account because she previously screwed it up. She can only use THIS interface "because it's just like her tablet" urrrgh. We got to the stupid e-mail, had to force to reclick on the activation link while she contested "I don't want to make another account" to actually get the proper website, because she wouldn't have known otherwise
What's frustrating is that she never uses it, thus, never learn it, and then when she needs it, it's me that's stuck with it
Last time she called me to press enter on Word to make spacing, a program that even 12 years old can use

@coolboymew @abloo Do you have GeekSquad or anything similar in your area? I would just leave it to them.
Just two more years or so and I should be free
