If there are any car guys in the family, simply tell them it’s sorta like that. Tinkering is a totally valid hobby, but older people have an easier time understanding it with cars (because cars have been around longer, mostly :P)
Or you start fixing something, and you find 3 other problems, not related to the one you started fixing 😂. You just didn’t know about them cuz you usually don’t use libfoo for the thing you currently need 😂.
It’s like going to the doctor for a checkup and finding out you have diabetes 😂… I mean… it’s not good, but better now than later, right 🤷 😂.
At least I get to find out why the spyware doesn’t work… and fix it 💪.
On the other hand, I have a hard time explaining to my family why shit in my computer constantly doesn’t work… or I’m in the process of fixing it 😂.

Oh, they’ve kinda gotten used to it by now 😂. At least that’s what I think… they do avoid my computer though, so that’s a plus, I guess 😂.
I have no idea what I’m doing at any point in the process, and that’s why its fun.
