[–] Simulation6@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 months ago

Someone pointed out that every generation eventually becomes the next generations boomers.

[–] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

The whole “hating my wife” thing has been around for a really long time. I hope my generations tiresome jokes aren’t just based on shitting on people like so many boomer jokes seem to be.

Wonder what my generation’s shitty joke legacy will be.

[–] angstylittlecatboy@reddthat.com 2 points 2 months ago

Right now with the youth it's shitting on people who disagree

[–] baggachipz@sh.itjust.works 74 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Before elbowing you in the ribs, handing you a lint-covered butterscotch candy, and lighting a cigarette while hacking up a lung.

Hard drives are going to be one of those in between things that Gen x/millennials will understand, but were already obsolete by the time Gen z rolled around.

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 12 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Hold the fuck up, did you just acknowledge the existence Gen X?

[–] IrateAnteater@sh.itjust.works 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Gotta keep them on their toes.

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I'm always on my toes. My toes hurt. Please stop abusing my toes

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Joke's on you, I've accepted Mega Bloks because they had the Star Trek license back in the day

[–] Darkmuch@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Fuck. What do we have left? Lincoln Logs? Tinker Toys?

[–] MonkeyTown@midwest.social 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Literal caltrops?

[–] jumping_redditor@sh.itjust.works 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

hard drives are still relevant for bulk storage

[–] IrateAnteater@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

True, but most consumers aren't doing bulk storage. Most people just have cell phone and laptop

[–] jumping_redditor@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 months ago

you must find really boring people

[–] undefined@lemmy.hogru.ch 8 points 2 months ago (3 children)

I’m confused, I call both HDDs and SSDs hard drives or disks. What’s the non-obsolete term?

[–] Fish@midwest.social 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

HDD is hard disk drive. SSD is solid-state drive. Though I still use the term "hard drive" to refer to both of them.

[–] undefined@lemmy.hogru.ch 4 points 2 months ago

I know what the acronyms mean. But I refer to them both as hard drive.

[–] Axolotl_cpp@feddit.it 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

HDD mean Hard drive, SSD mean Solid State Drive;

The joke is about HDD not being used which is wrong

[–] undefined@lemmy.hogru.ch 4 points 2 months ago

I know what the acronyms mean. But I refer to them both as hard drive.

[–] Sadbutdru@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 months ago

I'm guessing cloud?

[–] dragonfucker@lemmy.nz 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Drag thinks solid state drives are drives and they're hard.

[–] aBundleOfFerrets@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 months ago (2 children)

But, my dearest Drag, you miss the point! There will be generations of humans that have no experience of spinning rust, of whirring platters, or of the dreaded tick- tick- tick- of a crashed head and lost data. What will they do?

[–] dragonfucker@lemmy.nz 4 points 2 months ago

Probably invent new kinds of sex we can't even imagine

[–] HugeNerd@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

How are hard drives "spinning rust"? Are solid state drives "stationary sand"?

[–] aBundleOfFerrets@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago

Magnetic recording materials have historically been metal oxides, I have no clue if that remains true for modern hard drive platters. I guess you could argue that SSDs are stationary sand, but you could make the same argumant for the majority of semiconductors so I don’t think it sufficiently specifies SSDs.

[–] Dreaming_Novaling@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 months ago

Well, people like to say "check their hard drives" when referring to pedos, so the word itself isn't lost yet. But there might be some other Gen Z's who don't actually know what that is considering we were raised with Chromebooks...

[–] NotSteve_@piefed.ca 1 points 2 months ago

Hi I'm technically a Zoomer, I grew up with HDDs, hybrids and 32Gb SSDs. I'm just about 30 :)

[–] HugeNerd@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 months ago

Pfff next thing you'll tell me is that 3.5" floppies are obsolete too?

[–] ArchmageAzor@lemmy.world 11 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I swear, some of these boomer comics are just the person wanting to tell a shitty joke they thought of.

[–] RagingRobot@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago

Isn't that what all comics are? Lol

[–] handsoffmydata@lemmy.zip 10 points 2 months ago

Did HDDs stop existing? Someone tell my NAS.

[–] doingthestuff@lemy.lol 6 points 2 months ago

The guy is not wrong. I have dozens of HDDs but he's talking about an actual hard drive. I also have a wife, 3 1/2 kids and my dog just died. I've seen some shit.

[–] vga@sopuli.xyz 6 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

I've had a pretty bad and long relationship at one point in my life, I'm not exactly a young man anymore, and I still don't understand why the fuck anyone would think this shit is even remotely funny.

[–] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

"Hard drive" is funny I guess because it can be interpreted two different ways.

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago (4 children)

I can confirm. Not even loved ones make that drive easy. The Rockies are hard to drive over. Fucking beautiful, but scary

[–] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Ooh yeah that part going down Eastward past Vail is a hell of a nightmare drive. That road needs to be repaved every year with their rough Winters, even still the ruts in the road will keep trying to throw you into the next lane, while you're trying so hard to stay in your own lane, and the ruts in the road sound like you burst a tire. It's two hours of white knuckle driving.

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

It was Montana westward past Yellowstone. I spent my life in the loving embrace of just west of the Appalachians and so I thought that since I've done my share of driving through Kentucky it would be bad but bearable. Then it started snowing at waist height in late spring. I wasn't prepared for that.

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

The Rockies are the best part. Fuck fucking Nebraska though.

[–] MintyFresh@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Those passes are an affront to the gods. Man was never meant to traverse them in a pleather seat with climate control.
