Younger people of lemmy, what are some nuanced sayings that you would like to have explained to you?
Privacy - Privacy is the state or condition of being free from public attention or unsanctioned intrusion, allowing individuals to control their personal information and maintain boundaries from others. It involves the right to keep one’s personal life, thoughts, and activities confidential, and to decide what information is shared and with whom. Privacy ensures protection from surveillance, interference, and misuse of one’s personal data, supporting autonomy and dignity in personal and professional contexts.
I know y’all had a rough start growing up online, but that word really used to be important to us grey beards who watched all this online stuff unfold over the decades.
Sometimes I wonder if the younger folks realize you don’t have to document your life on the internet.
Why do old people always follow the same rules of syntax and grammar?
Just kidding I’m old and I want to know why young people mangle english so much.
bcuz its qwiker
Stupidity, laziness, memes, twitter, AAVE
I think it’s probably an attempt to be unique. Our written words have a massive forum of eyes on them that was never achieved before in human history. So we all wanna be unique? Unsure but that’s my guess. That and it’s possible humans inner monologue is being displayed more accurately and with less fear of repercussion.
what's a lefty-capucinno ?
