jamesh3318yMy wife types with 2 fingers and spends an hour every morning reading each of her email newsletters. A lot of days, she asks for help printing something too.
She's not stupid. She's completing her maths PhD. She is, however, hopeless with technology. -
@jamesh if she completes her maths phd.... With a little mentoring she can get a lot better.

DotM8308yI taught my mom how to copy paste images from the web to a word document when I was in 5th grade (that was almost 10y ago)
And I sometimes "teach" this one colleague (we're both CS students) shortcuts to several programs (I look for the shortcuts because it saves me time in getting the mouse there). One time I asked her "why don't you use alt + f4?" after watching her close her windows manually, and she replied "what does that do?". I have to say I was a bit flabbergasted by that (she's a console player so she's not really familiarized with the key shortcuts but)
Literally just taught my girlfriend how to ctrl+c and ctrl+v
