AI will wreck your eyes if you sit too close to it.
I won't pay a subscription for software.
I can't keep up with all the social justice stuff so I just quit caring about most of it.
I think Nick Mullen vocalized it best when people started throwing the Ukranian flag in their usernames and he was miffed that he had to remember another type of "gay" again.
Liberals are out here doing victory laps about pronouns in bios while their actual rights are getting systematically stripped away.
The word you are looking for is virtue signaling. There is a limited amount of good you can do.
The vast vast majority of those people aren't doing shit. It's like when they wanted us to bang pots n pans outside for nurses. It meant nothing.

I’m more likely to use my computer than my phone unless it’s directly phone-related. And if I can send a text from my computer? Hell yeah
I’m more likely to use an emoticon than an emoji

Cooking only from scratch no factory products. Meat also only from the butcher and not supermarket. I know where the butcher gets his meat from. And wanting to learn how to do lots of things myself to be self reliant, less wastefull, enviorment friendly and its mostly cheaper. Dont need no smart toaster!
I've gone away from plastics and only use natural materials, perferable renewable. If something is damaged i can just repair it. Creating less waste, saving money, and the objects have a personal touch and story to it over time.
Leather instead of artificial leather And yes i am building my PC case out of wood and glass if i need a new one
Nothing boomer about that. Boomers buy disposable razor cartridges and throw them away in extra thick trash bags. One use disposable artificially flavored microwavable TV dinner is their objective reality.
Being able to see a different opinion without going completely insane.
Which one, lol.
I despise videos in place of text/pic how-to.
I’m starting to run out of fucks to give when it comes to dealing with tech. Doesn’t matter what it is. Overcomplicated car infotainment. Burying features in deep OS menus. Shitty website design that hides info. Phone trees. “AI assistants” in pretty much everything. Etc.
I think most modern popular music absolutely sucks. No art, no ability to sing, all formulaic, a lyrical desert, and autotuned to shit.
It’s gotta be a mental illness, this constant need for public commentary via uploading everything you do to be viewed by others. Particularly things like “this is me crying because I got yelled at” kind of stuff. Vapid. Shallow. Go touch some grass and don’t fucking record it.
Yeah. I’m missing the more disconnected life we used to have.
(No, I’m not going to say it was all better back in the day. It wasn’t. Just our problems weren’t compounded by things like social media)
I would say being terrible at using smartphones, but most boomers are probably better at it than me. I'm much better with desktop computers.
I snore
I call people on Teams rather than ask if they are available.
