WHY ARE COMPUTERS SO HARD TO USE??? WHY IS EVERYTHING A FUCKING PUZZLE, WHY CAN'T THINGS JUST WORK???
I'm 19 and I feel like technology is so above me, I can't figure out how anything works. I was born into the computer era but yet I feel so alienated from it. Everything is just so frustrating and impossible for me to grasp that I feel like I'm falling behind everyone else who can use computers properly. Is their any help for a person like me?
it's all just a bunch of on/off switches that's what binary means and that's the dna of computation so think about technology as a dead or alive scenario except with revival potential at any time but also there is a special pathway through the gates that are on or off and with the right collection of ons and offs you can play doom

Thank you, but that doesn't really help me since I have no understanding of what the fuck that even means.

I don't need a new OS, I just want life to be easier.
(Plus I'd have no clue what to do or how to use it since I only use firefox to use the internet and check emails)

Back in the day you could just press F12 for help. Dunno if it works the same now.

Its really bad, it's probably the worst position someone can be in.
At least I'm not an edgy faggot like most high IQ robots are.
This is a surprisingly common problem for the younger people. They didn't grow up learning to use computers and instead just mindlessly consumed on smartphones and shit. Kind of funny in a way. They should be better with them, but instead they struggle with the most basic of computer stuff.

it's strange. I know this really bright kid who wrote code for linux and ran it 24/7 but when he got a job he didn't have time for it, just bought a mac mini and ran one of apples os on it. nobody works on their own cars anymore either.

You need to learn from the Masters.

You've been blessed OP. Turn off the computer, stop trying to understand it, live in ignorance of it entirely. In the long run you'll be so much happier than most people.

What are you trying to do that you can't figure out?

I was having trouble with a college website, but now I've decided to make a face to face appointment with a councilor to figure out classes and a scheduled.

fuck college websites that's not your fault
FACT every college website was designed by a retarded seal and the split test was where they made you go up to the registrar instead
I like to think of operating systems like lots of pots inside pots, except some are sealed shut and some are invisible

Even my college (best web-design college in the country) have a shitty website

You must understand most robots are way lower than average IQ.
It's the ultimate understanding of truly being a robot, when you realise how dumb and incapable you are while realising you are a massive loser.
