screenshot, probably from Ex-Twitter but I saw it on NOSTR, showing a guy saying that training a zoomer to use a PC at work is as difficult as training a boomer, with a reply indicating that there is only one generation that can rotate a PDF and that knowledge dies with us

I've never seen an icon of a single cog. Multiple cogs on a hub forming a gear, sure, but never just a cog.

Huh? The single cog is the standard for settings menus. Just looking at three random apps on my phone, they all had single cog icons.

cog
noun
ˈkäg
1 : a tooth on the rim of a wheel or gear

Can you share an image of what you describe as a single cog?

My bad, I was using gear and cog interchangeably. Didn't realize it could also mean just a tooth.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Look up cog in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.

A cog is a tooth of a gear or cogwheel or the gear itself.
