Are we all millenials here or is that a misperception?

GenX computing goes from punch-card to Atari 2600.
Millennial computing goes from NES through Napster and Neopets.At most points in both directions, some kids were "doing computer," but that was a sociably legible activity. It made you a "computer person" in some way.
Gen Z starts with ubiquitous computing shedding any social distinction.
If your school had a "computer room" but no web browsers, you might be Gen Oregon Trail.
Don't you feel that your experience with mainframe computers as a young "late-boomer" put you into a fantastically narrow sub-group? Would you describe those early computing experiences as normative across boomers?

@crispycat @thordis why are you censoring words on mastodon? Why censor "zoomer"? No offence, just curious.

Does it work for brain worms? Asking for a friend. @Darberoom1954 @szczurtorebkowy @thordis have the worms gone full on The Last of Us cordyceps yet and control their every move or are they still in there somewhere? Has your friend started talking like someone ran a cheese grater over their vocal cord? I'm sorry, but it could be too late.

Bill@OhMrBill Personally I like "elder" - although that isn't terribly specific.

@goleztrol @ritual @FuturisticRobert @dfx @thordis @szczurtorebkowy 1979 checking in. Just wanted to say you are all pretty rad. Carry on.
@rdp @goleztrol @ritual @FuturisticRobert @dfx @thordis @szczurtorebkowy I’m born 1983 and I can only identify culturally (tv, movies, internet tech) with a limited set of Millennials, but I’m too young to appreciate a lot of what Gen X appreciates. It has felt for several years like I’m stuck between two generations, so I think Xennial applies to me as well.
