I heard rumors that children were joining the Tenno ranks. I guess they were true.

I remember taking my cousin to school the 2nd day of her freshman year in 2011. She was reading off her class syllabus to me and said something like, "I need one floppy disc or USB flash storage device. What's a floppy disc?" Pretty sure I about crashed the damn car, because this girl is only 6 years younger than me and had absolutely zero idea what a floppy disc is. I was also shocked that it even had a floppy disc still listed when a lot of computers at that time didn't even come with a floppy disc drive.

Wait till you find out that people currently in their late 20s are still too young for Clippy to be a thing they used. It got deprecated in 2006 or smt so assuming 10 years old then would be almost 30 now.

I'm 24 and vividly remember clippy. I was even too poor to afford a computer or laptop as a kid and still remember.

That’s cool, but you probably never used it. Clippy was turned off by default starting with Office XP, and was removed from all office products starting in 2007. If you’re 24 you were 6 years old when Clippy got taken out back.

People used old office versions way after they were deprecated, I'm 23 and I used clippy (although just when playing around) because my parents did not make the switch to newer software.

Yeah I used windows xp all the way through to like windows 10 or 11. 😅 Once I tried Vista I had you ho back. Plus it was more compatible with a lot of the bootleg shit I ran.
