Like the few kinda tech literate GenZers are gonna have to form some guild to keep the internet running at like early 90s levels.

"Brother Jeramathy! The Omni-Web has frozen, I did the ritual of resetting but it did not work!"

"Sister Kathaliynnry, you made a simple error, you only reset the Mirror of Many Pixels, not the Tower of Processing. My Millennial Master Father Steve taught me such, may the Omnissiah watch over his soul."

"I pray for the birth of the Star Millennial to usher in the new golden age of tech!"

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.
