@DanLoup256@16bitnostalgia Yes, the craziest thing is that there was more progress *within* the PSX generation than we now see *between* generations.
Early PSX to late PSX was a bigger upgrade than PS4 to PS5
@edelnougat@Smirkley Partly identity-based voting, partly because they live in big cities and their peer group votes blue.
The average person does not put much thought into their vote.
@Cibolan2000@favelaoverlord It's worse than that because the average Millennial was 11 in 2000. It's not like people had 74 million kids in 1981 and just stopped breeding for 16 years.
Even if 100% of 18 year olds owned a house, you'd still need literal children to be homeowners to make the numbers work.
@r_vonhagn@favelaoverlord@ZachariahSchwab It's even worse because the graph is fake to begin with. The actual site the graph is from says 47%, so including the people living at home brings it down to 42%. Possibly lower, if the younger Millennials are more likely to live at home.
@Bearnard2hu@favelaoverlord@ZachariahSchwab It's even worse, because the average Millennial was an elementary schooler. Only a tiny fraction were adults in 2000.
Hell, the name "Millennial" was based around the idea of being the first generation to reach adulthood in the new Millennium.
@TheNels@LocalPizzaDeliv@favelaoverlord It's even worse because the average Millennial was in elementary school in 2000. It's only the extreme end who were 18.
@hayasaka_aryan There's a lot of stuff I dislike about Nintendo, but credit to them for not chasing trends
Ever notice how Final Fantasy abandoned its roots to chase new audiences and is stuck with the same fans from the 90s? While Pokémon sticks to its roots and constantly brings in new fans
@hayasaka_aryan I was going to say that there are lots of hot girls in PlayStation games.
Then I realised that they stopped making those games years ago and there's a generation of young men who don't remember them :(
@talionslayer 90% of feminist discourse on twitter is thirdies bringing up their own third-world experience in discussions about Western gender dynamics.
"But there are male predators and misogynists everywhere!" - of course there are, you live in Bangladesh.
@SovereignFren@Jaboolie So OP was exaggerating, but compared to the average adult:
~15% of 12-year-olds are smarter
~2% of 9-year-olds are smarter
Really bright 7-year-olds are smarter
Unless intelligence keeps going up after 17, but I doubt any gains are significant.
@lporiginalg This woman's videos are - if you can believe it - even worse than the thumbnails make them seem.
The worst part of all is her stoner cameraman husband who keeps asking retarded questions because he never pays attention and then says "wooooow!!!".
@lporiginalg The actual story behind this is even dumber than the headline makes to sound.
Someone he was arguing with on linkedin saw the photos and thought they were a targeted threat.
@beltway_burns@sentdefender It doesn't. A huge proportion of Russia's casualties aren't Russian. Deaths on the Russian side could be twice the number stated here, but the Russian state wouldn't record them.
@LincolnBWise@hayasaka_aryan Zoomers think Gen X doesn't exist. They call Gen Xers either Millennial or boomer depending on what point they're trying to make.
@JoelCuerrier@hayasaka_aryan They've also expanded the definition of Millennial too. Zoomers think that it goes straight from boomer to Millennial around 1975.
@balldenial6@reduxx A lot of trans behaviour feels like a male parody of 21st century feminism. Except they're serious about it.
It's as if they saw the worst female behaviour of the 2010s and wanted to get in on it.
@lporiginalg Is that Pat Flannerdy from K-Chat?
"They thought they caught me doing something, but they never did, Aim, they never did. We were only cuddling!"
