My daughter and I made some progress with our #volumio project. Since we're still undecided about the case (maybe we're waiting for the updated SmartiCase to be available), we've decided to build something on our own for now. The project needed almost all of our "useful" duplo stones. The USB soundcard is hidden inside. #hifi #nerdparenting

Yesterday, I've set up a #volumio device for my daughter together with her.

We regularly go to the library and I rip the audio book CDs she borrows with a one-click script based on #abcde and copy them to the family NAS. She then used to listen to them with my Volumio (streaming from the NAS) in the living room. Now she can listen in her own room as well.

The new device is essentially a Raspberry Pi with a touch screen. The hard part now is to build a case for this thing.

Just had to explain how ASCII works to my oldest. #NerdParenting

My oldest often calls her brother “Brodo”. 😂 While that’s wonderful on its own, my wife and I also can’t wait to introduce them to The Lord of the Rings. #LoTR #nerdParenting

My older daughter likes integral calculus way more than differential. I’m questioning whether she’s really my child. #NerdParenting

I'm trying so hard to avoid #StarTrekProdigy spoilers while waiting for my 9yo to be in the mood to watch it. She doesn't want me to watch it without her, but she's "not ready yet." #NerdParenting
