Windows users: Press ctrl + alt + shift + windows key + L. Go on, try it.

You're welcome. You can never unlearn this knowledge now.

Millennials trying to act like Gen Xers don’t know shortcuts? Whatever.

[-] Revan343@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 weeks ago

More that Gen X doesn't exist; it seems to go Boomers, Millenials, Gen Z

Ikr? We were learning keyboard based commands because mice weren't a thing at the time. Even filthy casuals picked up some over the decades

[-] veroxii@aussie.zone 1 points 2 weeks ago

I remember those WordPerfect paper templates you'd put over the keyboard to list all the shortcuts.

no it's the normal erasure of gen x from the timeline

The timeline goes

Old dead boomers

Dying wealthy boomers

Young poor boomers

Gen y

Millennials

Gen z

Gen alpha

Blame boomers. Millennials is their catchall term for whatever generation they're complaining about regardless if it's Millennials, Gen X, Z, Alpha, etc.

At the same time, I feel anyone under 25 describes anyone over 25 as boomer, so that ain't helping either lol.

I use Win+X, Win+E, and Win+R literally everyday.

I somehow always manage to fuck this up and flip my screen orientation, because I am a dumb.

[-] ryedaft@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 weeks ago

Ctrl + v, ctrl + z, shift + ctrl + v

[-] cows_are_underrated@feddit.org 1 points 2 weeks ago

What does shift + ctrl + v do?

Mac not having this hot key is criminal.

[-] LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.world 0 points 2 weeks ago

Mac integrated it into gestures back when 10.7 came out I believe. Believe it was four finger slide up... Haven't used it in years so I may be wrong. Don't own any apple products.

I worked with this kid born in the year 2000 for about 11 months. He was in very loose terms "IT", when he was typing ont he keyboard hed always hit the caps lock to type something in upper case, and when I questioned him on why he did that he responded "what do you do? Hold shift?" In a tome that implied I was somehow the weird one. He also had trouble typinh any symbols on the number row and had to be told to hold shift.

Believe it or not this incompetent IT guy was fired for his incompetence in IT (and shitty people skills)

He also had trouble typinh any symbols on the number row and had to be told to hold shift.

But... how else would you do it?

[-] drcobaltjedi@programming.dev 1 points 2 weeks ago

His caps lock toggling didn't work on numbers

[-] Apytele@sh.itjust.works 0 points 2 weeks ago

Y'all should see me charting in front of boomer nurses.

[-] Boozilla@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 weeks ago

Was in a long line at the pharmacy the other day. Supervisor told one of the older techs to open another line. Tech complained that her "computer had crashed".

Younger tech walks over and asked her if it had simply gone into sleep mode, and did she try wiggling the mouse?

That fixed the "problem". Older tech cackled. Younger tech rolled his eyes and muttered something to himself.

How do people make it to 2024, hold down a job, and still can't do basic computer shit.

Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
