>>71315717I'm a millenial and I gave up on tech literacy.
>Know how Windows works, MS keeps fucking around with it becuase why not?>Get into more nitty gritty stuff, realize I have no idea how most shit works and have to blindly trust others, who blindly trust others, who blindly trust others, because tech is so specialzied and everyone wants to make their own apps, linux distro, etc. It's pretty much impossible to keep up with tech unless it's your job and even then you're still stuck with blind faith in others as you work on your won little niche, or you be a jack of all trades who doesnn't really know anything.
TLDR; Computers are increasingly complex, have more and more people working on them, and everyone builds new shit hoping the foundations don't break while not knowing what the foundations are/were.
>>71325649Even cars are harder to work with. Shit like prioritizing bulding them over repair means it's easy to build but time consuming to take things out to repair minor faults, then you have the fact cars are now adding shit like computers and software so you add complexity and now a mechanic can't do shit because a car company locked the heating seats behind a subscription. Or they just seal shit away to make it hard to access, then you need a ton of specialist tools to actually work on a car, etc.
Even mechanics I know hate working on cars these days because of how they are made.
