New blog post: Pulling Google Takeout straight to a NAS
Pulling Google Takeout straight to a NAS — Max Glenister
I’ve been having a bit of a think about data I’ve left entirely in someone else’s hands. Specifically Google Photos, which has photos going back to 2011 and no local copy anywhere. I’m not going anywhere dramatic with it, but having a backup I actually control felt overdue.

New blog post: I turned my DevTerm into a Game Boy Camera and Printer
I turned my DevTerm into a Game Boy Camera and Printer — Max Glenister
The Game Boy Camera was brilliant and stupid in equal measure, a 128x112 pixel sensor bolted on top of a cartridge, printing to thermal paper on a Game Boy Printer the size of a brick. I got both for Christmas when I was 12 and somehow spent hours with them. The minigames are absurd, the image quality is aggressively awful, and the whole thing looks like a prop from a cheap sci-fi film. I loved it.
