I remember working with a ~ 70 y/o researcher at the uni and she sat beside me to rename files manually for about 2hr because she refused to learn to use a keyboard. able-bodied, purely a preference and just wanted to point and say what needed to change.

one of my co-workers walked in, overheard what we were doing, and later said to me: “holy shit, you are more patient than a saint.”

I wonder where the line is, from choosing to be mildly inefficient to becoming lobotomised.
