type0dev the Tinkerer

// maker  ยท  homelab enthusiast  ยท  Boston, MA

Just a guy who loves pulling tech apart to see how it works โ€” and occasionally putting it back together. I build home servers, mess with tiny Linux devices, write tools to scratch my own itch, and document the rabbit holes so you don't have to fall down them alone. If something I made or shared saved you an hour of Googling, a coffee keeps the lab running. โ˜•

Like what I'm building?

Every coffee keeps the servers on and the soldering iron warm.

Open source doesn't pay the bills โ€” but coffee helps me keep building.

This lab runs on coffee.

Not metaphorically. The servers stay on, the PicoCalc keeps computing, and the repos keep growing โ€” all fueled by a very serious caffeine habit.

Writing up rabbit holes so you don't fall down them alone takes real time.

Maybe one more Steam game

No pressure. But the lab appreciates it.

Servers aren't free. Coffee helps. Every cup appreciated.
