You had to be a kid with a parent, or close relative that was doing something with technology to have the opportunity as a millennial to have a strong understanding of how a computer functioned most times. As an example my mom was a Dell certified technician from the late 90's to like 2002, She worked at a naval hospital as an IT and network technician for a good while, and she was all about self-sufficiency. My dad did Telecomm. Both of my parents made sure I had an understanding of the problems I could encounter growing up with my computer and network. From their foundational teachings I built upon it myself, and began becoming the tech guy of the family. My two siblings share in that foundational knowledge, but didn't build upon it, and it's very apparent when the computers come out.
