techdependant

When a person all the time relies on other people instead of reading the manual or help section to help figure out a tech device.

This is the forth time this week. You have to stop being so techdependant. The power button is on the front of the device, yes, remember, push it in with your finger, then release.

My phone has a camera and a Bluetooth and I can get email and listen to music, I just wanted a cell phone. Not to be so techdependant but could you show me how to use all those?

techblock

When an electronic device is used as a shield from flirting. For example, when an opportunity occurs (eye contact, adjacent sitting), the potential person shifts attention to their gizmo (fiddling on an iPod, texting on cellphone, opening a netbook).

Paul: "Tom, why don't you say something to that cute redhead?"
Tom: "She already techblocked me when I looked over at her & smiled, then she whipped out her smartphone"

I lost my mobile phone and my laptop, I'm tech disabled.

I'm planning a trip to the Gobi Desert, but I will be tech disabled there.
