Interesting. I actually did the same. I haven't owned a TV since a few years. I often go to the theater, but I've stopped watching movies and series at home around 2-3 years ago. Same with computer games. This roughly coincides with a) getting my first job and b) discovering HN.

I seem to have replaced these hobbies with reading HN, reading books (lots of non-fiction), and toying with technical stuff (programming languages, libraries, security, ergonomy...).

While I learn a lot with these "productive" hobbies, I sometimes think I might be missing out on my previous hobbies... The NPR article made me realize I might have "culled" too much.
