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 2 weeks ago
Hold the fuck up, did you just acknowledge the existence Gen X?
IrateAnteater@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks ago
Gotta keep them on their toes.
jumping_redditor@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks ago
hard drives are still relevant for bulk storage
IrateAnteater@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks ago
True, but most consumers aren’t doing bulk storage. Most people just have cell phone and laptop

I’m confused, I call both HDDs and SSDs hard drives or disks. What’s the non-obsolete term?
Fish@midwest.social 2 weeks ago
HDD is hard disk drive. SSD is solid-state drive. Though I still use the term “hard drive” to refer to both of them.

I’m guessing cloud?
dragonfucker@lemmy.nz 2 weeks ago
Drag thinks solid state drives are drives and they’re hard.
aBundleOfFerrets@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks ago
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?
Dreaming_Novaling@lemmy.zip 2 weeks 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…
HugeNerd@lemmy.ca 2 weeks ago
Pfff next thing you’ll tell me is that 3.5" floppies are obsolete too?

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

I swear, some of these boomer comics are just the person wanting to tell a shitty joke they thought of.
RagingRobot@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Isn’t that what all comics are? Lol

Did HDDs stop existing? Someone tell my NAS.

I’ve had a pretty bad relationship at one point in my life and I still don’t understand why the fuck anyone would think this shit is even remotely funny.
LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
“Hard drive” is funny I guess because it can be interpreted two different ways.
doingthestuff@lemy.lol 2 weeks 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.
captainlezbian@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
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 2 weeks ago
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 weeks 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.
MintyFresh@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Those passes are an affront to the gods. Man was never meant to traverse them in a pleather seat with climate control.
ivanafterall@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
The Rockies are the best part. Fuck fucking Nebraska though.

You gotta use the roads, it makes it a little bit easier

Someone pointed out that every generation eventually becomes the next generations boomers.
RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
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 weeks ago
Right now with the youth it’s shitting on people who disagree
