  1. Today is #EarthDay. Fittingly, I have my old Game Boy sitting on the table. This thing is over 30 years old, has outlasted countless batteries, and still works perfectly. 🕹️🌱
    When we talk about sustainability in the tech industry, that’s exactly where we need to go back to: devices that are repairable, last a long time, and don’t suffer from planned obsolescence after two years. Disposable electronics are a bug in our economic system, not a feature.

    How sustainable are you when it comes to your tech?
    Do you repair things yourself?

  3. 🤖👶 Oh, look! A techie dad thinks he's the next Da Vinci by scribbling a stick figure and letting AI do all the heavy lifting to create a "next-gen" pegboard. 🚀🛠 Clearly, this groundbreaking #innovation will revolutionize the #toddler toy industry—right after we all finish laughing. 😂🔧

  6. My kids are tech-privileged. They're playing Super Mario 64 on the steamdeck via #RetroArch, and wanted to play Kirby. While they played, I SSHed onto the Steamdeck, and #GitAnnex get'ed the Kirby ROM from my fileserver. #techdad

  8. My brother resides in the United Kingdom with his wife and children. Today, he completed installing FaceAge on his bedroom door, as a precautionary measure in case his kids unexpectedly enter the bedroom at an inopportune time.

  13. Adding an additional 14tb drive to the array.. was only going to take 2-3 days, but then I started a snapshot replication task.. +12 days now. #synology #LongTimeToWait #raid #linux #techdad

  14. Some cool Star Wars figures I printed awhile back. About to start printing more now that the weather is getting cooler (and wet..) #3dprint #starwars #prusa #3dprinting #stormtrooper #vader #homelab #techdad

  15. Update to the home NAS refresh.. The 5-bay Synology DS1522+ was $100 off for Prime Day.. so now I’m migrating all of my data & had to order 2 additional drives. I found it incredibly easy to do a ‘disk migration’, although I had to manually reinstall the apps. No big deal, as it retained the app settings. #synology #homelab #nas #techrefresh #techdad #linux #computers #mancave

  16. Home technology upgrade - Replaced 2x TrueNAS systems (4x6TB), with 2x Synology DS923+ (4x14TB). These are pretty cool Linux based NAS systems offering a lot of features. Our phone photos are backing up to it and we now have a self hosted chat app for the family to use. #linux #synology #nas #computers #techdad

  17. Is it bad that this is one of the things I look forward to the most on Friday nights? #dadlife #techdad #podcasts @caseynewton

  19. I’m sorry this is going to be a #techdad account until this newborn let’s be get some sleep. It’s usually more tech and less dad.

  21. Nothing better than picking up my tablet to find the screen covered in grubby chocolate fingerprints... #parenting #dadlife #techdad #techtalk
