Jokes on you, my Oma worked in Dos until her retirement.
She was an absolute master at it.
I bet one of her previous titles was literally "computer"
thats one of the nicknames the school jocks came up with about me
and i just accepted it bc i actually found it fitting so they had to think of another one lol
mine doesnt even know how to add a custom ringtone to her phone
Do be fair that took me longer than installing the operating system too.
Do you?
Mine was convinced that cell phones and landlines were two different networks. Like you couldn't call a landline from a cell and vice versa. This went on for decades, even after we infront of her proved it worked.
