What modern technological equipment baffles you?

[palinurus]

Pretty much all of it baffles me when it comes to trying to explain how it works (and I work in electronics, but I only have any detailed knowledge about a small part of it)

I understand how semiconductors work. I understand how computer programming languages work. I don't understand the bit in the middle.

My Garmin etrex 20. I have never got to grips with it at all, but apparently I am not the only one.

I have a Garmin i can't work too. Was bought to plot routes on as i have no natural sense of direction but have given up. Husband uses it to record rides then never looks at the data

Timer/clock on my cooker.

Every time the clocks change I have to get the manual out.

Too few buttons for too many functions.

Currently I'm trying the get my head around blockchain technology and whether it's worth further research.

Why isn't it called 'the tin' then?

My friend is at a meeting today to talk to some people about helping them sell blockchain. What is it? Tell us more.
