It's wild that after *checks notes* 19 years there's still no way to do CSS image replacement that's not a weird hack. It's still a normal thing to want to do and we should have had a simple, accessibility-friendly way to accomplish it years ago. https://www.zeldman.com/2012/03/01/replacing-the-9999px-hack-new-image-replacement/
Replacing the -9999px hack (new image replacement)

IN THE BEGINNING was FIR, AKA Fahrner Image Replacement (note that one of the following links returns a 404): The Daily Report’s 2003 redesign uses (and our book explained) an image replacement technique intended to combine the benefits of accessibility with the power of graphic design.

Came across these amazing lego models of retro computers again by @BrickSketcher aka Chris McVeigh. He has all the instructions too @ chrismcveigh.com. Must make one of these myself one day!

cozy in a mac rom scarf. specifically this is a slice of the ROM from a Macintosh IIsi. here's how it was made. i used @th 's script https://github.com/osresearch/prom/blob/master/hex2png and the mac roms on archive dot org https://archive.org/details/mac_rom_archive_-_as_of_8-19-2011

if you have ImageMagick already installed:

$ perl hex2png.pl -y 1280 -w 32 mac_rom_archive_-_as_of_8-19-2011/36B7FB6C\ -\ Mac\ IIsi.ROM \ | convert - maciisi.png

Then a slice four columns wide was taken of the resulting image and knit into a scarf. The scarf is 1280 pixels/knit stitches long and therefore wraps natively in the columns of the scarf. if you want to make your own, you'll need a hacked consumer knitting machine or an industrial knitting machine or someone with a setup to machine knit it for you.

Posting my favorite computer in my collection: the red Sony HB-101 MSX. It’s utterly underpowered but just look at it! The color! The 80s futurism! The little joystick! The handle!
