No, it's 'my life is IT and i never stop working" guy, and "IT is just my job" guy.

I just order a new router on Black Friday to replace my 10 year old one. I also only console game now because PC gaming is too much of a headache. I spend my money on outdoor gear and pets, not technology. My new router is $90 bucks. I can't fathom why I'd ever need a wifi 7 quad band router with 9Gbps of throughput for a home network, other than pure bragging rights. All my devices are like 5-10 years old and barely support wifi 6 anyway.

A couple of my co-workers are the former. They will be doing penetration testing at 2am form their home lab in the morning because they their default mode is work work work. If i'm up at 2 am i'm watching TV and snacking.

I monitor security updates, but my co-workers like get excited and ramble on anytime a new patch/attack is documented. I don't get it. They revel in doing updates and rebuilding their VMs fresh every few weeks, I groan and clone.
