While most users default to Facebook to post photos, a lot of photographers use Google+ to publish their work. Google selects some of these best photos to create brilliant slideshows.

For a long time, this was exclusive to ChromeCast user. But a few months ago, Google released a nifty app for Mac called Google Featured Photos.

You may be wondering why my title says “wallpaper” but then links to a “Screen Saver” app. Well, there’s the little trick. On a Mac, any screen saver can be made to run as a wallpaper with just one line of code.

First, you have to download and install the Google Featured Photos Screen Saver. Next, go to System Preferences → Desktop & Screen Saver and set the Google Featured Photos as the active screen saver. Now it’s time to run the magic code.

Coding Time!

Fire up Terminal and paste the below line of code. It will set your screen saver as your wallpaper.

EDIT: Apple decided to restructure a bit in High Sierra.

If you are using High Sierra (or later), the ScreenSaverEngine.app has been moved to a different location. Use the code below instead of the one above.

Just replace all occurrences of Frameworks/ScreenSaver.framework/Resources with CoreServices and you will be good to go!

Cool, right?

The problem with running just that line of code is that if you close the Terminal window — or if your Mac goes to sleep — the screen saver closes and your wallpaper goes back to whatever it was by default. To handle this, we need to go a bit deeper.

To detect when the Mac sleeps and wakes up, we need a small piece of software called “Sleepwatcher.” You can download it here. Just open the file and your Mac will extract the downloaded file (sometimes it might have to be extracted twice). After extracting, you’ll get a “sleepwatcher_2.2” folder. Just move this folder to Desktop and run the following lines of code in the Terminal.

You might need to enter your password after pasting this line. Next, run:

Then run:

Awesome! You have successfully installed Sleepwatcher.

Now let’s add the lines of code needed to make Sleepwatcher run the screen saver when your Mac wakes up, and kill the screen saver when your Mac goes to sleep.

Sleepwatcher searches for and runs two files, .sleep when the Mac sleeps, and .wakeup when the Mac wakes up. We just need to create these 2 files in the user’s Home Directory.

In the Terminal, type nano ~/.wakeup then paste the below code.

Now press Control + X to exit. When it asks if you want to save the file, press Y and then press the enter key to confirm the file name. This will create the .wakeup file. Now to create the .sleep file.

Just like above, type nano ~/.sleep and paste the below code.

Again, press Control + X to exit, Y to save, and then the enter key to confirm the file name. Now the .sleep file will be created.

In Terminal, run the below line of code.

It changes the permissions for the newly created files so that it can be run by Sleepwatcher.

Now that you’ve created the scripts, you just need to add Sleepwatcher to launchd so that it can start when the system starts, then continue to run in the background. Paste the following code code into your Terminal.

This will copy the Sleepwatcher property list file so that it can be added to launchd. Now just paste the code below into Terminal to add Sleepwatcher to launchd.

Awesome! You can now restart your Mac and the launchd will run the Sleepwatcher scripts at the startup. Just put your Mac to sleep and wake it up. Then you’ll be welcomed with a beautiful wallpaper.

If you want to uninstall everything and go back to default, follow the link below.

To uninstall, run the following lines in Terminal one by one.
After running these, you can uninstall the Google Screen Saver and restart your Mac. It should be removed. Let me know…medium.com

Back in the early dawn of the GUI age, cathode ray tubes were the dominant display technology for the personal computer. In order to avoid burn-in of static display elements, screensavers were devised to help prevent this problem. Out of love for the software of yesteryear, [Greg Kennedy] has put together a bot that posts Windows 3.1 screensavers on Twitter.

A Perl script runs the show in this case. Screensavers are packed into “units”, which are loaded by the script. A basic Windows 3.1 environment is then configured, and loaded into a specially patched DOSBOX that allows automated demo recording in a headless environment. Once up and running, video is recorded of the desktop and subsequent triggering of the screensaver. After a couple of minutes, the recording is stopped, and FFMPEG is used to transcode the video into a Twitter-suitable format. It’s then a simple job of Tweeting the video using the standard API.
