Albums Backup2025 · albumsbackup.framer.website · ▲7Hey HN, I built a tiny offline tool to help back up iPhone/iPad photos and videos to PC or Mac via USB. No iCloud, no accounts, no cloud storage — just straight device-to-device transfer. Originally made it for someone close to me who had tens of thousands of photos but didn't want to deal with subscriptions or cloud storage. Thought it might be useful for others too, so putting it out there. It keeps Live Photos, 4K videos, RAW files, and transfers quickly without compression. Works on both Windows and macOS.

Hey HN! Pilots everywhere are required to keep a logbook of all their flying hours, aircraft, airports, and so on. Since I track everything digitally (some people still just use paper logbooks!), I put together some data visualizations and a few 3D globes to show my flying history. This globe is probably my favourite so far: https://jameshard.ing/pilot/globes/all If you’ve got ideas for other graphs or ways to show this kind of data, I’d love to hear them!
