2 or 4 depending on how strict you are.

I'm gen z but I still only got 3 points. I live in the sticks, so no blockbuster. Also no walkman, though I have used portable cassette players. And never recorded from radio to cassette. Maybe you could give me another point, because my dad had to send a fax for me, but I felt involved in the process.

1 point. I've never personally owned a physical encyclopedia. I've def. used them though.

1 Point, we don't use cheques in Germany. Maybe 2 points, but I'd count my local Videotheque as the equivalent of the "Blockbuster" video chain.

5, but only because i love to tinker with old technology (Gen Z)

3 or 4 points because I don’t think I’ve had friends with boomboxes, I didn’t use fax as a kid and I wasn’t raised in the states to use blockbuster and cheques.

Maybe I am old but being able to remember the world pre enshittification and constant doom is nice.

Walkman, Blockbuster, Encyclopaedia, Paper cheque.

I have a Walkman, but it is broken. Blockbuster never existed in my country AFAIK. Lexicon vs Encyclopaedia. Cheques are not really a thing here except for media display ("Local company donated to local sports association", Photo).

2 points.

I have never written a check, and as far as I know, there were no Blockbusters in this country.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

Me too. Though I'd say we can substitute any locally available video renting store with Blockbuster. So it would only be 1 point.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Same and some of these things I've done in the last couple years.
