Well yeah. I mean, computers back then weren't just spyware in a Scooby Doo mask.
I really hate to be "that person", but..........it's "run of the mill", not "run off the mill", friend.
It's a term from the late 1800s that refers to "manufactured goods not graded or sorted for quality—that is, a mill's products before they've been separated according to what will sell for how much." (Source for quote: https://www.merriam-webster.com/wordplay/where-does-run-of-the-mill-come-from)
