Especially when helping your parents living in the middle of nowhere.
Seeing them struggle with the changes happening in the last few decades, makes me worry what I'll be like when i need some young whippersnapper so that I can pay via personal, irrational, conditional thinking.
Sometimes I share this fear.
But then I think - I'm on Lemmy, so I think "I'm still hip to new jazz."
But then I remember that Virtual Reality will (probably) be commonplace someday, and something somewhere will require it - and I know in my heart that I'll complain loudly about it before, during, and after I (demand that my grandchild) use it (for me).
