re: Why can't old people grasp technology?

Stupid OP. My dad is 70 and has handled using a Windows-based PC and an Android tablet pretty much on his own. Rarely has to ask me for any help.

Anytime you think you are MAN enough to meet me and talk about that.... I am game.... you are nothing but a retarded troll..... just like the girl that works in my office....


BTW... You AINT No Man......

You just wait. The older I get the easier it is to fall behind as other responsibilities take up my attention and time.

This part is great.... but Tech has also made people lazy..... just sayin.

Change is expensive, there is a cost to learning new things. Younger people don't have sunk cost in the old ways so the relative cost to learning new things is lower.

It's really all about lack of experience and not seeing enough value in newer things.

I know I have to help your Mother whenever I'm at her house

I’m amazed every time that I think about the fact that the iPhone I carry around has more computer power than the rocket that took the first man to the moon (yeah, I believe that happened) and can give me an answer to pretty much any question that I ask it.

But I often miss the days of being able to “disappear”. Back in the late 7os and early 80s when I was in a trial that lasted a few days, I could hide out because no one could get me during working hours.

Now, I come out of court and have text messages, emails, and voice mails which need responses on that amazing machine in my pocket. The days of being able to hide out have been taken from us. I find that sad.

Did you just come to the internet to whine about old people who whine about technology?

Kill yourself, before you become one of those people. You obviously don't have the brainpower to adapt to the future.
