My mom: buys a laptop. Complains that no one is showing her how to use it. Barely uses it - checks email and watches youtube links. 5 years later, buys new laptop. Cycle repeats.
My much older brother: sees me playing a miyoo mini or other device I've programmed (this includes everything from dicking around with Plex servers to playing Mario on an RPi mini to running Yuzu on my desktop or playing games on my very outdated phone using a Razer Kishi, and everything inbetween). Asks if I can set him up. I buy him device for Xmas or birthday or whatever, program everything up if necessary, or whatever it takes to set him up. Two months later everything I've done for him is effectively untouched or abandoned. His excuse: I just don't have time to figure it out.
I visit him, usually with something cool in tote. And the cycle repeats.
Buy him a water bottle next time
