rediscovering science is one of my favorite things about the human mind. The brain is hardwired to fuck with shit and figure stuff out, often at its own harm.
It's so nice seeing people taking stuff apart to learn how it works, it's how we learn!
My grandpa immediately after getting married went home and disassembled and reassembled my grandma's hairdryer for fun, as expected she wasn't very happy about it. This kind of mentality is what led him to becoming a high up worker in a paper bag factory then later a grocery store manager.

I started my computer science obsession by going against my dad's command* and plugging in a different mouse that wasn't as old as the one that was used on the family i3 dell optiplex computer.
I went against his suggestion and used Firefox instead of chrome. These learning opportunities often backfired, I've nuked my OS (both windows and Linux) like 5 times by this point and had to reinstall, but I wouldn't have it any other way. I want to get some sort of a junk 2nd car that I can tinker with without messing up my own car that I need.
*note about my dad
my dad is very much a 9-5 "it just works" kinda guy, he would always call over a friend when the PC stopped working and would just take his car to a mechanic. He doesn't know how to teach me about computers or how to fix it if I break something past unplugging everything and plugging it back in. He encouraged me to experiment in other ways, just not with computers.I think exploration and mistakes are adorable and should be encouraged.
