A tour inside the IBM z17
Welcome to a photo-driven tour of the IBM z17.

@bender@twtxt.net Totally agree with you 100%. No photo could ever replace the experience of seeing it live on site!
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org now, that’s what I am talking about! Having been witness of similar sunsets, I would wholeheartedly agree that a photo (no matter how good!) is a poor replacement for not being able to spectate it in person.
@bender@twtxt.net Just like you, I change the wallpaper on my PC more often! However, @prologic@twtxt.net’s “Lake View” photo is perfect for my laptop, where I spend quite a bit of time.
@ionores@twtxt.net that ought to be some photo! I change mine at least once a month or so. It keeps me entertained.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de I still have a photo taken by @prologic@twtxt.net as wallpaper on my laptop (Linux)! 😀

** leibovitz **
Folks what that haunt me (positive) on the Fediverse may have seen me sharing progress shots from this, but here I am, and I have made another camera application for the web. Leibovitz combines a lot that I learned making my other camera applications into one, hopefully less clunky package.
With leibovitz you can either take new photos, or upload any image file and apply filters to it. The UX to toggle between the two modes is … ⌘ Read more

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org The bird in the wallpaper? That’s a photo from a trip to a local zoo. 😃 This little guy was sitting in one of the bushes and didn’t mind people getting rather close. Full version and more from that day.
He’s been gone a dozen years now, but I always picture him sleeping on the front stoop in the afdternoon, where the sun set in the West and warmed his sleeping place for him every day. Took this photo a year before he passed, at the amazing age of 21. ⌘ Read more
