    I’m tail end of the 90s and my half brother is late 00s, the difference in attitude, work ethic and learnings is astounding.

    I have personally witnessed this kid (I love him I swear) throw a controller through a TV because Fortnite lost connection (old man turning the wifi off because it’s the only way to get his attention).

    It fucking disgusts me, I know I was bad when I was younger, but nothing like that.

    I’m not even sure Millennials will get their time in the sun at this rate, some numpty in politics will find a new idea for legislation to ensure the millennial suffrage continues unabated.

      Yes. If you can condition mice to do things, you can condition humans.

      So - with that generation the benefit from possibilities they technically have is negated and more by the conditioning which wasn’t quite there when we were growing (it both wasn’t as easy to do and the companies doing it were still developing).
