    0 point gang rise up.

    But don’t rise too quickly. I know our backs don’t like that.

    • Jumi@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      I have 1 point but only because there was never a Blockbuster in Germany. Can I rise too?

      source
      • NotNow@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

        Also german, I guess any spot to take out videos counts also. So welcome to the “0 point club”.

        source

        You can rise… But let’s be extra careful with raising that right arm.

      Preach on, brother. Just came back from my physio. He did some dry needling on my lower back because it ain’t what it used to be when I was still Wired for Sound.

    • Chip_Rat@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      Yeah I can’t recall using a typewriter seriously, but for sure I’ve used on for fun. Also trying to get a commodore 64 to print my homework in 1992 should aub in nicely.

      source
      • MoreFPSmorebetter@lemmy.zip ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

        My great aunt left me her typewriter when she passed. My father holds onto it as I have nowhere too to store it and he enjoys using it from time to time. It’s becoming harder and harder to find replacement ribbons or people that can repair it at all, but it’s still kicking. I typed out a few short papers on it in highschool just for fun.

        Image

        I’m not 100% sure that’s the exact model I have but it looks like the right one.

    1 Point, we don’t use cheques in Germany.

      3, same with the cheques

      Actually… en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurocheque

      source
      • Enkrod@feddit.org ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

        Still nothing compared to how it’s used in the US.

        I’ve never seen a cheque in my entire life and it’s so incredibly niche that you might as well talk about paying with stocks or gold bars.

    1 because despite being born in the early 80s, paper checks are for old people and Americans

      I considered claiming this point, but I used traveler cheques once, so um not sure

      source
      • Brickhead92@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

        There’s also bank cheques.

      Born in the mid 90s in Canada. You guys should’ve seen the state of book fairs in Canada. It was easier to pay via cheque than credit card.

      I had to start paying my rent by check again landlord trying to dodge taxes by cashing checks instead of depositing them.

      source
  • dotslashme@infosec.pub ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    2 points, but only because we don’t have blockbuster where I’m from, I have rented movies though. I have also never used a check to pay for anything.

    source
    • raspberriesareyummy@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      source
    • Rakonat@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      2 points cause we lived a couple blocks from the library so we never felt the need to own a dictionary or encyclopedia. Though really like 1.5 since my sister did have a CD from world book program that was like an encyclopedia for kids

    A perfect zero. I have done all of those things and more that the creator of that list can’t even imagine. Things that were everyday common but have faded beyond memory, (and aren’t missed at all).

    source
  • tomi000@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago
    1. No Blockbuster in Europe, and noone uses checks here.

  • Simulation6@sopuli.xyz ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    1 point. Never used a boombox. And yes, I have written a check at a store while people waited in line behind me. Their cold angry stares still haunt me.

    source
  • Carrot@lemmy.today ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    I’m in my mid 20s. Maybe it’s because I grew up poor and was using outdated tech when I was a kid.

    I didn’t use vinyl or a film camera until a few years ago though, I have been really enjoying the physicality and ritualism of analog tech recently

    source
  • Sk3rgi0@lemm.ee ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    I got zero.

    Yes I’m old. On the plus side I still have my family commadore 64 from 1982.

    My town had a family video, not a blockbuster.

    source
  • Nusm@yall.theatl.social ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    None. Zip. Zilch. Zero.

    Let’s just say that at some places, I get senior discounts. Not ALL places, but some.
