It took until the mid 1960s for my mother to drive a car and my father never did after being hit over the head with a baseball bat over a parking space in 1965. 😆
BTW I started in computers in 1976. 🙃 Soon approaching 50 years.
Please consider some might have valid reasons of their own.

Eh, there's still plenty of older folks who didn't need to use them day to day and never had a reason to get one. I'm not going to consider my 100 year old grandfather who retired before they were common dim. Likewise a 75 year old who was a plumber may have gotten through without ever needing to use one.

But there are still two levels. I use computers as a tool. Thst doesnt mean I can build one or make it so something it doesnt wish to.. I have grandchildren or "Geeks 2U" for that..😷

@whowasthatmaskedman More than two levels actually.
I prefer to leave it open still. I have built multiple computers over my lifetime. There's far more to computers than what meets the eye.

@DeWayfarer I agree. At best i am a competent computer "driver". I have little idea what makes them work. But I can connect the wires (or wifi) when I buy an accessory.😷
@whowasthatmaskedman Nobody needs to know how to build a compute. Just open and rains to an email counts.

Agreed. I know 70+ year old people who know how to operate computers quite efficiently. The ones who don't are just not willing to learn.

I do computers and cars...but I don't do bicycles.

Meh, I don't do cars. I do computers though

"Dim" - or perhaps choosing not to use computers because they do not need them?
Or having used them intensively at work don't want anything work-related at home?
Or of course, simply cannot afford them.

I don't "do" computers either.
I work with computers.
I have literally never sexually penetrated the computer chassis.
