Well, tech is a funny thing—I kind of feel bad for zoomers and alphas for how badly the industry has fucked it up. They've turned it into consumption-as-hobby, so that it's the nerd equivalent of being a "foodie." The "hobby" seems to just consist of keeping track of the trends in consumer hardware, then using it in a shallow way as was intended by the engineers and marketers.

That said, there are still honest-to-god tech-related hobbies, like programming, art, music, even modding. There's also the deeper stuff, like playing with ESP-12s or breadboards or the like.

What do you like about D&D?

well iv etried programming and i cant code at all and im very limited with tech, what i like about dnd is that its a wonderful break from reality and computer and it gets a group together to play a non pc game and such, if that makes sense.
