There are days, as a tertiary-qualified 26-year-veteran of the IT industry, where I absolutely despise not just computers but anything that runs on electricity.

Please note that the pigeon may not be eaten for dinner. Even though squab as a meat is freakin’ delicious - particularly when baked in clay in your campfire.

Oh I’m definitely in that camp, very late adopter to some stuff once it’s had time to mature, and my IoT crap at home is all isolated from the parts of the network that I care about.

Nah, I’m 32 and I prefer wired over wireless. Wired headphones, speakers, mouse, charging cords, etc. I hate the idea of airpods because I know I’ll lose one, and I’m suss about Bluetooth tech.
