They are missing out on true life experiences because of technology.

@SW-User Were also creating that technology soooooo... win or lose I guess.
@Rokasu No, you really weren't. People were working on those innovations long before you folks came along. You're just the ones who have benefitted from the technology.

@bijouxbroussard Oh boy, you just opened a can of...

The past builds the future. That will always be true. The future innovates the past. My generation grew into the innovation of technology. We had the opportunity to learn from the brightest minds of the techno boom. We are now driving that change.

You can feel how you want about us now, we are creating the security, the network, the infrastructure your world lives on. That will be true now as it is forever. The only difference is we are fortunate to have electronics to be our kindgom.
@Rokasu But the thing is, some of the youngest people (often called "Centennials", most actual "Millenials" are between 22 and 37 now) dismiss my generation as having had nothing to do with the internet, with the common products people use, when no one who innovated those products was born after 1995. Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak, Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos---all "boomers". Larry Page, Sergey Brin---Gen X. Now, Mark Zuckerberg is an actual Millennial. I have no bone to pick with you folks, and I have a great deal of respect because you [b]have indeed[/b] made technology your kingdom. But some of you seem to think that you invented the wheel here. You [b]didn't[/b]; you simply took the technology forward, as previous generations have, and improved it. That's supposed to happen, isn't it ?
