This is just the age calculator. Anything over 5 points and you are less than 25 years old. I’d even go as far to say less than 30.

I got 5, so which Kardashian am I? Not sure the point.

  1. Probably a typical response for anyone not in gen Z.

One. Because in Germany, we did not have Blockbuster....

[–] SilverShark@lemmy.world 4 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I just replaced it with my local video rental shop and counted that I did it. I felt that the question was more into the spirit of asking if you have rented a movie from a shop on physical media rather then being focus on the actual Blockbuster store.

3 point

Last three on the list.

Never actually owned dictionary or encyclopedia. somebody just left them at my place, because nobody wanted them, so I used them as a door stop. If they are considered my property, because they were abandoned at my property then just 1 point.

Dictionaries are like cats. They just find their own home.

There were no blockbuster where I come from so I have 1 pont. Suck it up loosers!

[–] RBWells@lemmy.world 4 points 6 months ago (1 children)
  1. Never owned a whole encyclopedia.

But probably -1 for not only rotary phone but "party line"; sometimes you couldn't use the phone because someone else, in another house, was using that line.

  1. Paper cheques was a close one, but I actually paid a house once with a cheque. And the local video rental wasn't called Blockbusters, obviously.

I’ve never sent a postcard. Born in 1970.

I'm giving myself half a point because I've used a typewriter but it was just playing around at my grandma's house.

15 points.

I've listened to music on CDs and cassette tapes, watched a VHS tape, recorded music from the radio, and at one point owned a dictionary.

[–] CephaloSquad@discuss.online 3 points 6 months ago

10 points, though maybe less depending on how strict you are. For example I've seen floppy disks and seen my dad use them (we had a whole stack of them at home), or my mom send and receive faxes, but by the time I was old enough to use a computer or need to send communications it was CDs and email instead of faxes.
