screenshot, probably from Ex-Twitter but I saw it on NOSTR, showing a guy saying that training a zoomer to use a PC at work is as difficult as training a boomer, with a reply indicating that there is only one generation that can rotate a PDF and that knowledge dies with us

Guessing they’re talking about Power-On Self Test rather than the HTTP verb. I’m assuming you were thinking of the latter given you mentioned a software engineer.

Half of software engineers don't know what a POST is either

Software engineer here, can confirm I've never received anything by post in my life, it's always couriers. My assumption is that post stamps are boomer NFTs.

Ah, but postage stamps are completely fungible.

As opposed to images on the internet... XD

If anything it would actually take more effort to replicate a physical stamp now that I think about it.

help desk definitely doesn't need to know that either. "does the shit turn on... no, well send it in then we will give you a new one"

I was thinking of the HTTP verb, you're right.
