The Y2K issue was real, but a lot of people spent a lot of effort to fix it before it became a problem. The dire warnings were exaggerated, it was never going to end the world, but the problem really did exist and it really could have led to some pretty serious issues especially with financial institutions.

If you're the type of gamer that gets sucked into Rimworld, then Dwarf Fortress will very likely consume you.
I’ve never heard of that type of action occurring anywhere else.
There were a couple of high profile cases in Canada a while back.
That user may be using Sync, which last time I checked only supports the reddit style spoilers.
I once experienced a site just silently truncating a password that was too long. Such a ridiculous thing to do. It was several years ago, gaming related. I think it might have been Ubisoft, but I'm not sure that I'm remembering that correctly.
The sword fighting becomes way easier once you unlock some skills through training. The first time I played I didn't know about the training and it took me way longer than it should have to figure it out. Maybe you already know about that, but just in case you missed that like I did at first, thought I'd mention it.
As long as it continues to be sold on store shelves, it's modern enough to count.
I've started carrying it more recently during times when money is tight. Helps me keep from overspending.
Even us elder millennials often don't carry cash. I'm so elder, I might as well be gen-x. And until recently it had been years since I carried cash.
I can't see the name Crash and not think of the 1996 movie with James Spader. Which is weird as fuck.
Most people have only vague memories before they're 5 or 6, so that's not so uncommon. I, an elder millennial, have lots of memories from before I was 6, but only because I have a big life event that happened when I was 6 that marked a "before time" and "after time" allowing me to easily place memories before or after the age of 6. All of my memories from the "before time" are vague and hard to place at specific ages except for a specific few that I can place due to houses I lived in at the time and what my parents told me.
I wouldn't say I wasn't self-aware in the "before time" but I definitely don't remember it as well as what came in the "after time". I'm sure that is what the above poster is referring to.
