Repair tips, deals & the occasional teardown
Zero tech spam. One click to vanish.
Sajad is the founder of celltech in Birmingham and a father of five. After 25 years in the tech industry — fixing everything from cracked screens to water-damaged logic boards — he noticed something troubling: the same devices he repaired all day were silently reshaping his own family at home.
That observation became the foundation for The Zombie Family series, a deeply personal exploration of how screens change our relationships, our brains and our capacity for genuine connection. It's not anti-technology — Sajad still fixes devices for a living and believes in their power. It's about using them intentionally.
When not writing or repairing devices, Sajad coaches his kids' football team, experiments with family screen-free weekends and researches the neuroscience of digital addiction.
A father's honest reflection on what we've lost to our screens—and the small steps toward reclaiming human connection in the age of corporate social media.
The neuroscience of digital addiction—dopamine hijacking, gray matter reduction, and why different brains respond differently to the same poison. Plus: the recovery evidence.
