Edit: I’m so happy to see elder Gen Z hasn’t been fooled into thinking 2026 and newer cars are somehow better

I don’t have a car, I’m holding on to public transit
Another 1-2 years
Another 3-4 years
Another 5-7 years
Another 8-10 years
As long as possible, new cars are not worth buying

Advice Anyone still in uni?

10 Upvotes

Hey.
I’ve been seeing a lot of hard core ADULT stuff here and I just wondered if some of you are still in university and not fully fledged adults with real responsibilities yet. I am 25M, still living with my parents, final year of my bachelors, still feeling like a child and a fallire because of how behind I am compared to everyone else.

I come from Northern Europe btw, it’s quite common to take a gap year or repeat a year in uni or high school because of the high work load. I started uni at 21, but made bad choices and picked a very demanding university and had to drop out due to not passing all my courses despite working hard and studying as much as possible.

I changed uni and I’m getting good grades now but man I really hate my life. I miss being independent like I was I my old uni, I hate living with my parents even though god bless them they still support me financially and don’t really cause much trouble.
I know I’m privileged to still be supported by my family, but I feel shame and guilt over it.

Anyone also in my position? Would love to have different perspectives.

Serious Discussion Old GenZ (late 90s), do you relate better to millennials?

38 Upvotes

I find the post 2000 Zoomers have a very distinct set of fashion, humour and overall attitude to life. There’s nothing bad about this at all.

Personally, I find myself relating more to young millennials. In school they were the ones we looked up to, tried to befriend, and often ended up emulating.

Also depending on when you entered the workforce, millennials were often the ones we had as mentors.

I also feel some of us entered a weird job market, just like how millennials entered a post GFC world.

Other Looking for an old Facebook auto-battler game

3 Upvotes

Looking for an old Facebook game from around 2008-2012. It was a medieval auto-battler with flat top-down 2D sprites (looking straight down from above, no city building at all). The screen had a square deployment grid on the left and your available soldiers on the right. Positioning was key, you could place bards in the middle of your formation to buff the morale and stats of the surrounding units. Battles were blind: you only saw the enemy army after hitting start, at which point they fought automatically. I also remember the game logo had red and white. Anyone know what this was called?
