@tomw @dsilverman Ha, been using computers since punched cards on IBM 360 in 1970’s, then TRS-80, Atari 800, Apple II, IBM PC’s. Worked at Bell Labs in 1980’s, loved Unix & now get my Unix “fix” on macOS every day. iPhone indispensable to daily life, on it every day in retirement as I work on converting my 26 years of film photos to digital. Mac hardware great for photo & video work, world would be horrible without computers & photos stored in a shoebox 🙁

@PenguinToot @dsilverman You could store your photos in a photo album, though. A physical one, I mean

@tomw @dsilverman Yes, have shelves full of photo albums with prints (scan negatives to digitize them). Requires people to come to our house to see them, then sit in one place & stare at them. Instead send my photos to 10 people at once, literally across the world, to remind us all of days gone by. People can zoom in to see children’s faces, everyone comments to everyone else. There’s no comparison to a photo album stuck in our house that our children will inherit someday when we’re gone 🙁
