What made you say "fuck, I'm old" today?

Adult allergies and the amount of energy they sucked from me

I just admitted in a post that I formerly used CD-ROMs. (“Okay Grandma…”)

I had to use Google Lens

 

[Ellies_adventures]

I go to the shops and can't read the prices on the shelves. As a carton of milk costs a lot more than a dollar these days, I like to look at prices. Sometimes I forget to take my glasses, so I'm there zooming the camera onto the price ticket to decide whether I am prepared to buy a certain item or if I should buy a different cheaper brand. Not savvy enough to have even heard of Google lens until just now, and I'm sure I'd have a fun time trying to install it if I were able to find it
