I keep telling older people who seek IT advice from me that knowing how your computer works is like knowing how your car works. And then I tell them that they’re the morons who think the engine is magic, and never change their oil until the car’s in the shop with issues and the mechanic finds what looks like mud in the engine.
I miss the Internet when you needed to know wtf you were doing. Now everything is geared for easy, addictive consumption
