Do you think millennials who grew up with the early Internet and home computers will be as bad with future technology as boomers are with current technology?

My wife and I started talking about this after she had to help an old lady at the DMV figure out how to use her iPhone to scan a QR code. We're in our early 40s.

It could happen. Is typing class still a thing in school? cause younger generations suck ass at touch-only typing from what I can tell, which is the opposite you would expect

eh, even growing up through the '90s where typing class was a thing, there were very clearly some people that got it and most did not.

These days, kids primary input device is probably a phone. I will out Mavis Beacon any of my kids, but the teens can damn near keep up on a touchscreen.
