How can one become a tech nerd without tinkering with things though?

Yes but modernOS are advanced enough you dont need to tinker at all, kids will just go to the "app store" install some gacha games and never learn s thing about how the computer actually works. Like that's kinda what i did growing up except my first computer was command line only so i was forced to do some tinkering.
