Man, I never expected the Onion to be optimistic.
But she is so young. If you consider 60 to be young
Guys Kamala is 60 and a career politician. I don’t think this is a given.
She was also a lawyer early on in her career. I’m sure as an office gopher she handle plenty a PDF, printing, copying faxing and DOCX.
Early on in her career was before pdfs were a thing.
My HR manager is also 60 and routinely publishes the company newsletter as a .docx.
Nothing is a given in this life.
Yeah but the career politician part means that she hasn’t had a job since McDonald’s that didn’t come with at least half a dozen underpaid assistants, so it’s a fair assumption.
Also the new intern might not be able to do this either. There’s a surprisingly narrow age range where this skill set is expected
We’re fast approaching that golden age where every president comes standard with PDF creation skills.
A generation or two ahead and it’ll be hard for presidents to operate the holographic interface/brain interface and find typical functions.
they gotta dtop being 80 for that tho otherwise it’ll take another 20 years or so
Not with their average ages creeping up. It’s the same generation of of people over and over.
I dunno, mobile devices aren’t “computers”, and Gen-X gets ignored so hard it’ll likely be skipped right over, and we’ll jump immediately into Idiocracy (it’s what plants crave).
Although I bet Pete Buttigieg knows how:-).
Harris’ birthdate is October 20th 1964, she’s pretty much Gen X, having had to deal with the 80s crap as a teenager/young adult, hell, 1965 is the first year for Gen X
Douglas Copeland originally defined Gen X as starting ~1960. That tracks with Gen Jones - 1960-1964 - a boomer subset that had a very different experience from that of classic boomers. I have seen Obama described as a Gen X-er and he’s older than I am.
Usually the cusp of Gen-X is 1965, so even she is Boomer/Gen-X
I don’t think they even know how to use Word
It’s like the principal in my school hitting return many times to get to the next page.
I did an office IT course which was next level: making sections which enable you to change every bit of the page format without altering other sections.
At the time it didn’t seem to matter but that course was instrumental in saving so much time and hassle.
But will she enable the option to create bookmarks from word headings? Surely no one ready for that.
Obama, Carter, and (somehow) Teddy Roosevelt
To be fair, Teddy only managed to convert to PDF by sheer gumption. No matter how many clippies he faced, he never gave up, never crashed his Word, and always disabled OneDrive before anything else.
For sure Obama could convert a Word doc no problem. Hell,
CheneyBush Jr. probably could’ve as well.With his youthful, tech-savvy vibe, many assumed that Barack Obama knew this stuff. But when pressed about how to convert file types, he responded, “What do I look like, some kinda fuckin’ nerd?” His honesty was refreshing. After all, converting a file shouldn’t be the president’s job. That is what interns are for. (Recent surveys show 90% of interns’ work hours are spent combining, condensing, and converting documents in a way that doesn’t crash the aging government servers.)
He does not, in fact, look like some kinda fuckin’ nerd.
I mean… kinda (a hot one:-)?
Edit: receipt:
Conclusion: nerds rule, conservatives drool 🤤!
I wanna fight you for this statement.
but I have deadass nothing to fight you with
how dare you make me realize Obama is attractive >:( /hj
It’s okay, you must still be recovering from that coma that you simply must have been in for 8 years to have missed this hot bod:
Michelle forgives you though, bc she now has this hunk of man meat all to herself finally, and therefore so do I:-).
Also, we can be so easily distracted these days by…
Wait, what were we talking about now? :-P
Next up: tables of data in CSV, then XML, and finally JSON formats, oh the humanity!
ASN.1 pls
Oh dear lord… please save me from the monsters underneath my bed, and from ASN.1 everywhere it may invade.
Unless we get one that can skibbidi the yeet instead.
No cap fr. Well, yolo fam, so y not?

Okay, but is America ready for a president who is a PDF file?
