How is the generation that grew up completely with the internet so technologically illiterate? In a few generations no one will understand the technology they use and it will go into disrepair and lost, like Roman concrete or aqueducts

My anecdotal observations are chronic use of phones as their primary/only computing device effectively erased their ability to learn desktop computing except when utterly necessary. The rest of us think it's hilariously stupid but that's what has happened.

I take it as a profit opportunity: If you're old enough to know how to use a real computer, you're going to be rolling in it doing tech support for these poor saps who can't figure it out.
