At this point reasoning will no longer work. Call him a Luddite[1] and tell
him to get back to scratching on a cave wall. The shock of having the
techier-than-thou turned on him might stop him in his tracks long enough to
listen to your explanation

[1] Actually since the Luddites were opposed to the negative effects of some
technology rather than technology per se, I don't normally use that term as
an insult.
