Put yourself in your parent's shoes and look at our own generation (my father was a WW2 veteran). They often said the same about us, their words were "soft" and "privileged".

As a Gen X'er as well, I strongly disagree. While you do have valid points, our generation has fought the baby boomers and others and carved the way for these Gen Z's, two of which are my children. I support them as they try to make the world a better place just as we did in our youthful arrogance. We had some good ideas, some still survive. Gen Z will also better our world.

... to get them to shift all their crap.

Looks like we are right on track for that apocalyptic future.

Those that were moved were wood frame structures, smaller and easier by far to move.

There is weird crap happening consistently. Aliens have been blamed. Secret experiments have been blamed. But in truth we don't know what's happening. Most people who have experienced and reported it have been marginalized as sensationalists or insane. But there is a pattern, paper trails, and metric tons of evidence. We just don't understand what it all means. Probably it's something mundane and misunderstood, but that we haven't yet been able to comprehend. Either way, it's high time we stop ignoring it and talk openly and honestly about it.

TL;DR: Probably not E.T. but something is happening.

Amazing how the Earth's population has reached such staggering levels when everyone and everything is poisoned.

Organic farming is a backwards-thinking cash grab promoted by fear, and is in the same class as bottled water and non-GMO products. If you want to pay more for something that looks slightly different and may-or-may-not be slightly healthier than cheaper versions, go right ahead. Just understand that the benefits you think you are getting aren't anything close to reality.

Now if we can go after the people who have abused farming practices and companies that knowingly sold bad products. Responsible use of farming chemicals (including water) and genetic manipulations (including the cross-breeding practiced for centuries) is the right way to go, not chasing a fad based on a media-inflated boogieman.

It's like they have Atlantis Complex.

I can understand your point of view, I once shared it. But my view has changed, due to either advancing age or evolving tastes.
I've come to realize that I will never have the time (or money) to play every game I'm interested in. But I enjoy good storytelling through this medium, dazzling graphics, and innovative concepts. I first watched a run through Dante's Inferno, a game I had no interest in investing money in, but a subject matter that I had previously enjoyed (various adaptations of the Divine Comedy, in particular the X-Men saving Nightcrawler from the 10th circle of Hell). Watching it gave me my fix, at no cost, and minimal time invested (I jumped through grinding sessions to boss battles and game dialogue).
Lately I've enjoyed watching Fortnite, for which my child has criticized me. I feel this is the same concept as watching sports; watching people better than you doing something you can't (or choose not to do).

The last time I was in a Best Buy was to buy my current Huawei Honor 8, 2 years ago. They won my business over Amazon (I have Prime) and Ebay by the fact that the color I wanted was in stock locally. It still took the sales associate over 1 hour to find time for me and to search there stock 3 times to finally find my phone. Before that I hadn't been in a Best Buy in over 5 years (looking for a computer component they apparently no longer sold at that time).

And here I thought the US was a capitalist country. There are dead communists laughing at us from the grave.

And this would help how? Every OS has security holes.
Every. Single. One.
Without exception.
Why? Because no matter how clever we are, these are all created by fallible humanity, and there is some way to circumvent, interrupt, override, overpower, or simply break it (even if it's just with a well aimed rock).
Windows was the biggest and the most installed, and thus it had the most people attacking it and finding flaws, holes, and weak points of every kind. If all the Windows OS systems were scrapped today, the brains behind these attacks would simply move to the next most profitable target and do the same again.
Microsoft and Windows have obvious issues, but they are not unique or limited to themselves. All you can do is try to make it too hard for the criminals to turn a profit (or gain whatever power they seek).

I'm a tech in the education sector with a background in science (geology). I specialize in large format graphics and on-the-ground tech support for an implant print shop. I have no need to learn business at this time. Woop woop woop!

I am unfamiliar with YoY as a term and had to google it.

All I could think was "Zoidberg is happy!"

When my very old Samsung Galaxy S4 stopped working well with modern applications last year, I wanted to find a decent cellphone at a good price, without going to used. I took a chance on the Huawei Honor 8 for $400. It's been a great phone, timely with updates, and more than just another flavor of android running on a Chinese apple knockoff. It's a beautiful and well made device that has served me well. While their earlier software had some unusual features/bad designs, when they moved up to Android 7.0 they abandoned many of their failed ideas and kept improving their software.

This is not a cheap knockoff company, I'd expect them to easily rival Samsung and Apple in the US, if not pass them entirely for market share.
