Create guides for boomers

lol. Babyboomers and Gen X invented and built the internet. We programmed VCR's and could navigate dial-up settings for v90modems. Maybe write a guide for gen Z, as anything more complex than a swipe is too much technology for them XD

Heck, genXers are the only generation who can set the clock on a VCR. A skill now lost to time and technology.

Hell, I know a couple of guys, a boomer alcoholic and a zoomer that ages backwards, that work at a VCR repair shop, one of the three remaining in the United States. Although I don't know how good are they at actually fixing VCRs, all I see is them scamming some elderly person off of his life savings while all he wants is to watch a Night Court video cassette.
