So maybe I didn't get his point at all. I thought that he was upset with the fact that new gadgets would be turning him into a plain user (and a consumer...) and reducing the tinker inner nerd facet of his life. If he is pleased that now he doesn't need to build/keep those 5 boxes in his room and just have an iPhone in his pocket, well, then I missed the point badly.
- crusso 9y agoI read it as just a fact-of-life statement about how the iPhone has obviated his need to tinker. He may feel nostalgic about it, but I didn't read "upset" in there... certainly not that he's looking for ways to make his life more nerdy by contriving reasons to tinker.
- rodolphoarruda 9y agoOk, fair enough.
