What's your 'old person' trait?

What's SP27E4?
South Park season 27 episode 4, I'm guessing

70s. Maybe some 80s, too.
I could make a solid argument for the '60s
-
For example, mine is that I love watching Antiques Roadshow.
I avoid going out during busy times - e.g., rush hour, school zones, restaurants on a Friday or Saturday night.
-
6 hours after lunch is a good time for dinner.

never self checkout.. unless 18+ items are involved.
other than that or stealing literally no cashier will care or even remember you.source: am cashier at grocery store
Tbh I don't use self checkout because I'm worried about the cashier recognising me I use it because the normal tills take 5 business days to clear a single person. I can be through the self checkouts before a single person has moved through a normal till.

A lot of Zoomer/Alphagens have said in surveys that the perceive prolonged or maintained eye contact in a conversation as a sign of aggression or attraction. I was using hyperbolic language for brevity.
Oh no. I worked so hard to be able to maintain eye contact in conversations (autistic) and now I'm questioning it.

Personally, maintaining eye contact during a conversation shows me that you're actively paying attention and processing what I'm saying. I mean you might not actually be doing that, but I at least feel you are. And it's a good sign. When I have some Alpha at work explain that bit about how their generation views that level of eye contact I audibly scoffed.

I don't have android or iOS because they are shit

I like watching old British sitcoms.
Some would also say that enjoying a good traditional Anglican liturgy is another one
Waiting for God is so damn good.

I don't know the veracity of the statements about tiktok, but I do remember a hubbub back in the day about facebook nestling into parts of your phone and not being uninstalled with the app. A quick search later, and it looks like it was because it was a 'default app' on samsung phones. So yeah, for this I definitely want to see the proof of concept and at least some relevant info on tiktok specifically.
wrote last edited by [email protected]can confirm. my samsung phone has a "meta services" system app i had to root to yank out. they apparently had a deal to put that spyware in. i'm also not aware of a similar deal with tiktok.

Former military person, fear mongers about magic evil of TikTok tech mining everything and sending it to the scary Chinese, says that FB does the same but also claims that somehow "we at least can keep tabs on what they're doing with your private data" (lol), while also admitting to still being on FB and using Google's services. Not at all suspicious and incoherent I'd say.
We discovered that the app embedded itself deep in your phone's hardware, granted itself full administrative access to your phone, then started trickling all your data to servers in China
Ok bud, that doesn't sound stupid AF at all. This random military IT sysadmin knows this but all other cyber security experts in the world have somehow missed this crucial bit of info. And for some reason, this info hasn't travelled up the chain through the intelligence agencies. Remarkable.
honestly sounds a bit like right wing slop.

And I would love to sit with you and do "research".

You! The only person on Lemmy older than me!

When out eating and drinking, my preference is to go and order food and drink at the counter/bar, rather than install some app or give a website all my personal information before I can order.
What? This is a thing at restaurants now?

I don't think AI (aka LLMs) is / are against the natural order, I just think they are a terrible tool for work that requires thinking. And there are a lot of people, including medical professionals, who don't care enough to verify what is presented to them. At least if I use AI generated code, I can test it.
Yeah, I use LLMs all the time for all sorts of things. Like, I'll be working on a diy project and will think "I need a thing, and I know this thing exists, I just don't know what it is called." LLMs are great for that.

I use self checkout because it is faster and I don't have to interact with a human
