Older people with no knowledge of Tech

Don't have a stepdad.

My relatives are stupid with computers too, but they're all smart enough to take whatever I say as gospel.

If anybody in my family had that preconceived notion that "the YouTube app gives you viruses," that would immediately go away if I assured them that that isn't true.

nice blog post faggot

>>55908771
You're wrong about the TV not being capable of getting a virus.

>>55908771

Its not impossible for your computer to get a virus.

I'll give a few stories. Before I start, I just want to add that my dad is an electrical engineer with a master's from Columbia, which just makes these situations more unbelievable and hilarious when they happen.

>Dad calls me over from my room
>Anon, the sound in this video isn't playing
>He shows me the sound in the video is set to high
>I check and see the speakers are on
>Check to see if windows volume is set to 0
>It is
>Dad tells me to never mention this again

Different story
>I buy a new gaymen mouse and give my dad the old wireless mouse I had
>A week later I get called to his room
>Anon the mouse you gave me isn't working. Did you give it to me because you broke it?
>Make sure mouse USB thing is plugged into computer
>Flip mouse to check power switch
>It was set to off
>Dad tells me to never mention this either

Those are really the funniest things that have happened. Other than that it's just stupid shit like my mom or dad asking how to copy/paste on their phone, send pictures, etc.

Possible? Yes. Plausible? No.

When did I disrespect his property? I never went on YouTube on his TV.

>>55908997
To me that isn't frustrating stuff, just too lazy to troubleshoot. Also, he's not from the "lol just google it" generation so stuff like copying and pasting probably isn't an easy solve for him.

>>55909054
He's not from the "just google it" generation, but he was among the first to really work with computers, and knows his way around Linux comfortably.
I just find it funny that he is an expert on some really advanced things, but in the same field he can be so clueless about other things.
