Oh, they def are. Most people under ~20 only use touch screen devices. In school, they have apps for building documents and power points, so they can just do those in their phone or a tablet.
I'm watching it in my high school aged niece: she barely knows how to type on a real keyboard, let alone how to access a command line, and even less so what can be accomplished through it.

I want to make a joke, but 25% detection rate is better than some people I know who get paid to look for malware ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I tried Medias Touch for an episode or three in early/middle of last year and it just didn't do it for me. Have they changed the format/content much?
For my political / news related, I tend to do Tangle and Breaking Points with a small smattering of It Could Happen Here. How does their current presentation style compare to that?
Don't want to say where I'm at, but we don't really have possums in my area :/
We get lots of bunny visitors at my place as well, but I noticed a couple have crazy big ticks around their ears. Luckily we haven't gotten any in the house or anything, but has def made me less "pro-bunny" lately.
Heads up, there's now a Remind Me bot for Lemmy nowadays.

Yeah, most of my knowledge on "Chinese" is from when i tried to learn Korean. Korean still lean on some Chinese characters (hanja?). Not for like "daily" reading/writing, but like, I remember newspaper articles would sometimes have the headlines in Chinese characters. They, of course, would use their Korean pronunciations, but there was no way to tell what that was from the character (unlike the rest of the Korean writing system, which uses an almost completely consistent phonetic alphabet).
I heard schools have largely moved away from Phonics, which is wild to me. That's basically how reading was taught going back to at least medieval monks.
I hear they're using a "look and see" method or something? Word is that its how the Chinese teach their students to read....but they don't have an alphabet, so I don't know how that's supposed to work in English.
I have a relative who just retired from teaching and she says its a real mess in early education because of how badly this reading teaching method works, and its only worsening as students mature.
But you, like, use machines, right?? /s
Blazing through old Malcolm in the Middle with my wife.
As a middle child with a highly dysfunctional family, I related to the show way more than is healthy. But my wife never watched it regularly (she was an only child with a military dad) and so I'm getting her fixed up in that.
