I feel like those kids are potentially buying their own kids devices by now

Potentially? They're in their 30s probably

Those Apple devices are circa 2010, so I’ve got bad news regarding the dog.

[–] bdonvr@thelemmy.club 14 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

I mean, maybe it's not out of the question that the dog could still be around. Most dogs get neutered young too. 16-18 years old is definitely an old dog but not unheard of for a small breed. Jack Russells are no slouch for longevity.

But yeah almost certainly they are gone

This however is completely ignoring the fact that the dog was photoshopped in and could be from really any time

[–] boonhet@lemm.ee 2 points 1 week ago

The dog was added later, but no idea how much later.

They can't afford a house, you mean?

[–] atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Meh, this was maybe 15 years ago. I would bet on not quite 30 yet.

[–] bdonvr@thelemmy.club 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The girl maybe. The boy is probably at least 30 tho

[–] atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 week ago

He doesn’t look 16 to me. The OG iPad was available in the States 15 years ago this month and Europe 15 years ago next month.

Even assuming this is as early as Christmas 2010 I would argue he is 29 today or maybe just turned 30.

[–] boonhet@lemm.ee 1 points 1 week ago

What do you mean 15 years ago, it just happened

[–] angrystego@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

That means they can have children and buy them devices - but it doesn't happen automatically when you're in your 30s, so - potentially?

iPad came out in 2010. That was 15 years ago. That girl is like 10. That boy is like 14
