I guess I'm a non standard person that way. I like to know how things work, not just use them. Fix my own devices, grow some of my own food, etc.

All I know is I'm glad to have been late Gen X, and was there to get a grip on all this technology works. I notice boomers and Gen Z in my family are about the same skill level with computers. Mostly consumers, without an underlying concept of how it works. It worries me somewhat for the future.
