Read it wrong, I have nothing

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

0, and I've done 4 of these in the last year.

2 I've never really used a typewriter, I've never listened to a vinyl record. Everything else was relatively common growing up in the 90s, being born in the late 80s.

2, maybe 3. Never used a typewriter, never owned an encyclopedia, I can’t recall ever sending a postcard.

2 points

Never sent a FAX. Scanners were common place and only sent pic/pdfs by email when needed.

Never owned an encyclopedia.

One point. Never recorded a CD from the radio.

The encyclopedia belonged to my grandparents, but I lived there and used it.

9 Points. Can you guess how old I am with that info?

One point for the typewriter.

6 points. I have never used a floppy disc, used a Walkman, blasted my music in public by any means, sent a fax, recorded music from radio to cassette, or used dial-up.

1 point. Never cared for what was playing on the radio.

I was born at the start of the '90s, and I only got 1 point.

I posted this to see replies old vs young and Live in US vs Europe. Surprised that on Lemmy there are still many old folks and also how many folks from Europe are on this site.

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

0 of course, old guys rule!

Up to 8 points, depending on whether playing with tech that was already old at the time counts. For example, I've never used a typewriter to produce a document, but I've pressed the keys on one to understand how the mechanism works.

Only 3 🥲

i wrote a check yesterday and faxed something last month, because 1. fuck paying "convenience fees" to pay my rent online 2. fuck signing up for yet another medical portal just so i can order some fucking contact lenses
