I don't get it. Same parent constantly expects me to drop everything to re-install Windows. I've set-up multiple Roku/Android boxes for them with all the free tv/sports they could ever want. I've had to configure every device they own multiple times. They don't follow instructions and manage to fuck up everything I do within a few months without fail. They refuse to try Linux. They refuse to learn anything for themselves. When I was growing up this man would set-up his own stereos, TVs, and stayed on top of technology.
Similarly:

Experienced this in less-involved and not-as-frustrating ways.
To be honest, they don't follow the instructions because they don't want to(or aren't capable of doing so). They want everything to work like an appliance rather than a tool or set of tools. Next time they ask for help and you feel obliged to help, just pick options that are as close to appliances as possible; you'll both end up being happier.
Addendum: Normies will always want and do what requires the least amount of thinking. If you setup some technology that saves them $100/month but requires some steps beyond dumb operation, they will inevitably complain because something will go wrong(which will be no fault of your own) and they lack even the most rudimentary problem solving skills to address it. In their minds, having to rarely do something beyond appliance-like operations is the end of the world and they would rather not save the $100/month. The best thing you can do for normies when devising technological solutions for them is to ask yourself if a toddler could use what you implement. If a toddler could, then normies can use it; if a toddler couldn't, then normies reliably can't use it.

Dude, you may have autism. Your boomer parents have no fucking clue about technology. They just want to watch fucking sportsball. Instead of just helping them you are being an autistic brat that would rather waste his time installing new modems and reconfiguring the network for 3 fucking times instead of just helping your parents out.

Ask for some favor in return. Not money, just the use of something they have or a service that they are good at. Odds are they wont hold up their end of the bargain and that is exactly what you want. They either won't ask again because they don't want to remind you they owe you something, and if they do you can just point out how you are still waiting on what ever they promised last time. In the case of your dad, the answer to all criticisms and accusations should be "Ok, if you're so sure I don't know what I'm doing, do it yourself. Otherwise, let me work and be glad I'm helping at all."
As >>998680 says, for normies even what you would likely consider to "just werk" is too complicated. Don't bother trying to make things easier or cheaper for them, it will just backfire. Just let them muddle along with what they have been sold and become half-addapted to. You need to remember that to these people about half the buttons on the TV remote hide arcane secrets, some of which they live in fear of accidentally encountering.

Yes. I have been giving advice on the internet for the past 10-15 years, mostly on the hardware/software side and only my closest friends actually listen. Randoms / anons usually just try to argue with me because they're not actually looking for advice, but trying to start a fight (Because they're usually degenerates or ignorant).

I have a similar experience as well. I wrote some software years ago and constantly get asked about it. Sometimes I'll get drunk and just want to help people in good faith. I'm always quickly reminded it's a bad idea. Some random with a few wrong answers from google will argue endlessly with me. If you call them on it and prove them wrong they'll just keep going in an attempt to save face. Usually these people are the same ones with 25,000 posts under the same name on some forum where they're moderator/admin.

It's not just computers, there are people who simply cannot sit down and RTFM. My parents are both this way, but at least my mother has the humility to admit that she cannot RTFM, but she will keep the documentation in order. My father on the other hand is a total mess. Just the other day we were changing the tires on their car and he had bought a wrench where you can set a torque limit. The wrench comes with a manual because you have to take care how to activate it before use and how to store it when not in use. It's precision tool after all. Of course he has lost the manual, and we couldn't even find the manual of the car to look up the proper torque to set. I had a rough idea of the correct torque from the last time, so it was better than nothing I guess.
A thing both of them do when they buy some new device or appliance is hand me the manual and tell me to figure it out. What the fuck am I supposed to do? Read the entire manual and recite it to them? Most of the manual is for reference when you need it, you are not supposed to read it from cover to cover and know every answer off the top of your head.
I'm glad I don't own a smartphone, that way I can just feign ignorance when asked something and refer to my siblings.
You know how video games used to have this copy protection thing where you had to answer a question and the answer was somewhere in the manual? We should bring it back, but this time for everything. Got a new toaster? RTFM of you will have to eat your breakfast cold.

Your parents are ashamed of you. You're supposed to be into technology, but anytime they ask you anything you put up a big fuss.

Oh you sweat, naive child...a couple of more years under your belt and you will be introduced to the betrayal from within that transforms every human life into a steadily worsening struggle. Starting at about in the middle of your 30s, you'll lose energy by simple changes of weather, followed by waking up in the middle of the night to take a piss. Sickness takes way longer to shake off, your joints act up, your lower back becomes a steady reminder, your food selection shrinks, falling asleep takes effort. At that point you're in your 50-60s when you'll meet your last stretch nemesis...arthritis. From then on out it's living for the few moments time isn't stealing away from you.
With all that in mind, plus all the memories and experiences you accumulated...do you really think you will give a flying fuck about some modern electronic thingumbob? Modern society are nothing but degenerate, hectic morons in the eyes of the aging demography. You'll soon find that out for yourself.

No i don't feel the same way. It's called a family favor, you help other people near you out and it will(if they are good people) be reciprocal and they will help you back. Take care of your family and contribute if they're not literal scum. If they are scum and you never expect them to ever help with with anything then you can still help them but ask a favor for a favor of same value right there which can be whatever.
I've experienced this, but not your situation because I'm an assertive person. Don't let people walk over you because they are retarded and cannot and are unwilling follow basic instructions, you should have told them to fucking listen closely. If they do not listen and you have made it clear to them(passwords, adresses that they should store and bookmark) on notes then none if it is your fault. It's their fault.
And always make it clear by demonstration that you have solved their problem when you do. They will know that it is their problem from thereon out.

3) Said: Ok. If you think that someone else will do shit better than me, go pay for service.
4) Parent called and asked for service. Was told it costs 1.5 k / day / 1 person
5) Parent now doesn't tell me stupid crap and lets me fix the OS, DB, ..., conf. I'm pissed because I got more work.

What is there even to know about torrents? You install a torrent client, download the torrent file, double-click it and the clients does everything on its own. It takes longer to ask for a person to sit down in front of the machine than it would take to just do it yourself.

Searching for files on non DHT clients is still difficult without an indexer. The work is thankless at times. I can tell why >>1003157 loved to lie about doing the searching, downloading and file check.
My partner is honest: "Do it for me please, I'll give you a BJ if you do~"

yeah I had the same stuff. I just stopped being a pushover, you know. Just say what you'd rather do, like cook a dinner together. Or go at it with little effort, according to your motivation. Get to a point at which you'd have to do something tedious like research a function and say "I don't know". You can always say that yes, although you are smart, you don't know that particular thing. I for my part always stayed out of TV stuff because I hate TV and don't WANT to understand it. Boomers did it themselves and never asked me, because I would just say: 'I don't know either'.
And others can see whether they can change your mind. When they know they can get you to do it, they will pressure you more and risk conflict. Change in how they see you will, WILL cause conflict. Own it. Don't be a pushover.

I actually prefer to do this kind of work when I'm with family. Because then I can focus on that instead of talking to them.

They take advantage of you because you are goodie two shoes, or at least were in the past.
I suggest you have a smug attitude about it.

Don't do it, just kinda fuck around with them. Just make them do what you want. Get them to make a sandwich for you. Say that you will do it in 2 hours and then get away from them and "that you forgot". Fuck around with them a bit. They will get the message.

My solution was to move away with my partner across the city away and rarely speak to them because they honestly don't influence my day to day at all. Before that, I'd get asked to fix stuff all the time at work and I'd charge them if it wasn't a work system. The ones who actually were worth something paid up- I'd charge them the cost of my lunch-time.
