Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ

You make the same mistake as the previous person. You take the exemple of the minority of people who cared to try to understand how computer worked and generalize it to the entire gen.

I have thousands of people in my office that prove everyday that millenial are for the most part tech illiterate and do not care about how thing works. I've seen the millenial arrive in the work env and the gen-z and there is absolutely no difference. Millenial were exactly as dumb (or as smart). If anything, I think gen-z are actually smarter because they come in not believing the corporate bullshit the X and the Y drank like cool-aid. But that's another topic.

In any case, all the stuff we had to go through didn't make us smarter, for every 10,000 of people of my gen who learned they had to edit autoexec.bat to launch a game, I'd bet that barely one knew what the heck himem.sys actually was. That didn't make them smarter, just monkeys who learned a trick.

So yeah, geeky gen-Z don't need to tweak as many parameters, they can directly launch fusion 360 and start designing parts for their 3D printers. Tech has moved on. Gen-Z geeks fiddle with other stuff than shitty windows drivers.
