Edit: I was kinda hoping the response to this post would more be people joking about my Warhammer reference, but instead y'all be posting serious analysis here. Real buzzkill.

I don't know I kind of feel like tech literacy is exactly the same as always, but since tech is way more integrated into our lives it's just more visible than it used to be. I mean who else remembers updating Adobe Acrobat on their parents computer?

"What did you do to the e-mails?!"

"What?"

"I'm clicking the button but it's not working, what did you do?"

"Nothing..."

"I really need the e-mails..."

"Okej... I'll take a look."

"When you're in there can you look at the printer."

"What's... never mind I look at it."

5 min later

"Okej, so the wi-fi is on again, it was turned off... for some reason. You're email should be working again and the printer is working but out of inc."

"No it's not, I just refilled it."

"That was like 6 months ago..."

"Did you use all the inc?"

"No.. I don't print stuff.. Anyway, what do you need printed?"

"A thing from the emails..."

"Okej, what file?"

"It's a PDF"

I do still get quite a few older people handing me multi-page colour printouts when all I need is the large number at the top of the first page. On the other hand, they're more likely to bring an impeccable notebook with neat lists or sketches - very rare for anyone younger to do.
