NSUserDefaults··on Show HN: Davit, a Apple Containers UI
Not on iOS unless you also pay annual membership to put it on the AppStore OR rebuild & reinstall the personal-account build every 30 or so days.
NSUserDefaults··on Workers Cache
Reinventing the web, one service at a time. Is it really that hard to build things like this on a per-case base, small scale, all on a bare bones VPS? Do we need a global gateway to help us not screw up the basics? Service looks nice but makes me sad somehow.
NSUserDefaults··on We all depend on open source. We will defend it together
> Today, the undersigned commit real resources — engineering talent, security expertise, and funding — to harden the software we share
NSUserDefaults··on The Doorman's Fallacy in action
A good waiter by the time it comes to payment will know the dynamic of the group and help them organize quickly.
NSUserDefaults··on Apple raises prices of MacBooks, iPads
Now tell me again how the Steam Machine is “overpriced”..
NSUserDefaults··on Quebec town recognizes trees as living beings with rights
Do they pay taxes?
NSUserDefaults··on The time the x86 emulator team found code so bad they fixed it during emulation
Several layers of white is what makes the black really pop. (Just kidding).
NSUserDefaults··on Love systemd timers
Or if you have a printer/scanner combo, you can turn it into a pen pal!
NSUserDefaults··on A 10 year old Xeon is all you need
How about the iMac Pro? Would that work? I was able to put 128gb in it (not as easy as the regular iMac but possible).
NSUserDefaults··on The dead economy theory
Responsibility, reputation, reliability, human connection and empathy (ahem lawyers, right…)
NSUserDefaults··on Search engines alternatives now that Google isn't Google anymore
Maybe just the ones at full or hybrid war with Europe?
NSUserDefaults··on BBEdit 16
The landscape has changed significantly. In 2007, OS X itself (10.5 Leopard) cost $129.
NSUserDefaults··on Postmortem: TanStack NPM supply-chain compromise
Maybe just ai-gapped.
NSUserDefaults··on Train Your Own LLM from Scratch
Been doing it since the day I was born. The beginnings were hard but I’m getting there.
NSUserDefaults··on The West forgot how to make things, now it’s forgetting how to code
Happy to help and eventually take over.
NSUserDefaults··on Turbo Vision 2.0 – a modern port
I recommend the recent Wookash podcast with Chuck Jazdzewski, who was part of the team that created the original TV and much more in that ecosystem.
NSUserDefaults··on Show HN: Tusk for macOS and Gnome
Interesting, looks like it's two completely separate implementations, one in Swift and one in Python.
NSUserDefaults··on Some iPhone Apps Receive Mysterious Update 'From Apple'
Could be a fix for per-device asset optimization that got messed up somehow.
NSUserDefaults··on Windows: Microsoft broke the only thing that mattered
I am delaying it because iOS development is currently making me money but once that stops, I am so looking forward to moving back to Linux. Neither Windows or macOS are going in a good direction. The difference is only in the degree and speed of ensh*ttification. Ironically the only thing I might miss is the often criticized Xcode.
NSUserDefaults··on Is legal the same as legitimate: AI reimplementation and the erosion of copyleft
If you pirate a movie and reencode it, does that apply as well? You can still watch the movie and it is “obviously” the same movie, even though the bytes are completely different. Here you can use the program and it is, to the user, also the same.
NSUserDefaults··on A deep dive into Apple's .car file format
At this point if a file format could have rounded corners I’m sure it would too.
NSUserDefaults··on I fixed Windows native development
So this fixes the problem when msvc is the required compiler. Does the zig C++ compiler bring anything to the table when clang is an option?
NSUserDefaults··on Clean-room implementation of Half-Life 2 on the Quake 1 engine
Can I run this on my 486?
NSUserDefaults··on Time Machine-style backups with rsync (2018)
On a single drive, deduplicate all you want. But you need to have two drives, at least, anyway.
NSUserDefaults··on Time Machine-style backups with rsync (2018)
In that case you are supposed to use your /other/ backup. Which you have.
NSUserDefaults··on Mobile carriers can get your GPS location
Of course. I was just calling the police on my drive home to report some junk on the road and the operator asked me quite directly “is it on the junction you just passed?”. I didn’t mind actually, saved me some explaining. And if I ever call emergency, I can be pretty sure they will find me.
NSUserDefaults··on Notes on Apple's Nano Texture (2025)
I love the nanotexture on my 2020 27” 5k Intel iMac.
NSUserDefaults··on Windows 11 surges among PC gamers on Steam as Linux stalls
Doesn't seem newsworthy, unless you are a Windows-centric news site trying too hard to dis Linux.

The slow but steady move to 6+ CPU core systems seems at least a bit more interesting.

NSUserDefaults··on Stardew Valley developer made a $125k donation to the FOSS C# framework MonoGame
Many use Dear ImGui for example and some do donate afaik.
NSUserDefaults··on macOS 26.2 enables fast AI clusters with RDMA over Thunderbolt
How crazy do you have to get with # of tracks or plugins before it starts to struggle? I was under the impression that most studios would be fine with an Intel Mac Mini + external storage.
