I feel like the people I interact with irl don’t even know how to boot from a USB. People here probably know how to do some form of coding or at least navigate a directory through the command line. Stg I would bet money on the average person not even being able to create a Lemmy account without assistance.

    No. They are actually that dumb, mate.

    I’ve never worked Helpdesk. I have just dealt with the general public routinely throughout my life. Goddamn, it might be just the state I live in but the people here are fucking stupid. Consistently.

    Remember, there are also just dumb people who never call because they don’t interact with a computer to such an extent that they ever run into problems they need to call about. Those people are as tech literate as a rock and they are everywhere.
