Comment on I've been alive for the entire narrative of the internet and it's crazy to think any of the newer generations will be able to sort it all out for themselves.

The way things are going, physical media will be a thing if the past, from records to DVDs to Video game cartridges, our entire existence has revolved around physical media, but people went without for thousands of years before us, and people will go without after us. We are a very unique blip in history.

I was explaining to my kid what a cassette was, and then I realized that I had to explain what physical media was first. Like, no, movies and music didn’t always just materialize out of the magic light-box.

Also had to explain to a nephew what the save icon was. That was funny.
