I am what you would call a boomer. But I do not only know how to rotate a PDF, I also know how to generate one from a number of sources with software I have written...
You're a computer boomer, basically don't count. A lot of millennials, with no relation to tech, can use the computer at least for basic stuff. That can't be said about any other generation.
It can be said for Gen X.
I think that entirely depends on where at in GenX you were born. My mom, aunt and uncles were older Gen X (65-72) and can barely use computers at all. My friend born in 78 gets along just fine though and has never once asked me for tech support. Our school didn't get a dedicated computer lab until most of the older GenX students had graduated. By the time I entered kindergarten in 91 we had a dedicated computer class with Apple (IIes or IIcs maybe?) and by the time I was in high school we had an A+ and CCNA elective class.
lmao. my dad was the only Xer i knew growing up who could do anything but Word without fucking everything up. Most of gen x was taught to use the computer by their children because we were tired of uninstalling 30 toolbars and running malware bytes twice a week.
Laughs at opening PDF in a text editor and manually reading/editing things. (It was a bit complicated problem that made me do these things and don't recommend it)
Been there, seen that, but got no T-shirt
