Die unbequeme Wahrheit: Bye-bye, 1,5 Grad! 🌡️
Willkommen in der Klimarealität – dort, wo Physik einfach passiert und CO₂ sich herzlich wenig für Parteiprogramme interessiert.

Spoiler: Der Treibhauseffekt lässt sich nicht wegleugnen – auch nicht mit AfD-Schwurbelei und Reichsbürger-Physik.

Nothing like a Steam sale to underscore just how expensive games are on the Nintendo Switch 2 😅 You ain't seeing your 15 year old Mario game for €1.99, that's for sure
Big year for universal apps; Apple didn't mention it, but the new Journal, Phone, and upgraded FaceTime apps in macOS 26 are all Mac Catalyst. That is now a hefty chunk of the macOS userland

This sneaky new music feature in iOS 18.4 is actually a hidden gem - 9to5Mac

In iOS 18.4, Apple added a new ambient music feature to Control Center. It does exactly what it sounds like,...

Version 3.0.8 of the iCloud Passwords extension for Firefox is now live, addressing an issue unique to the Firefox version of the extension where clicking on an item to AutoFill in the in-page menu would not fill anything... if and only if you held down the mouse button for too long. 🙃 https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/icloud-passwords/
iCloud Passwords – Get this Extension for 🦊 Firefox (en-US)

Download iCloud Passwords for Firefox. iCloud Passwords lets you fill passwords from iCloud Keychain when signing in to websites using Firefox.

In 2003, Apple released a 64-bit dual-core 1.8Ghz system: Power Mac G5.

In 2023, Apple released a 64-bit dual-core 1.8Ghz system: Apple Watch Series 9.

The Watch is faster and has more RAM.

The G5 was too hot to put in a laptop. It'd use up S9's battery in under 2 minutes.

(The actual problem, 67 lines below the error message: .disabled() needs to be applied to the Button, not the ToolbarItem, which I had to figure out by just commenting out random stuff until it compiled.)

Beware UserDefaults: a tale of hard to find bugs, and lost data https://christianselig.com/2024/10/beware-userdefaults/
Beware UserDefaults: a tale of hard to find bugs, and lost data

Excuse the alarmist title, but I think it’s justified, as it’s an issue that’s caused me a ton of pain in both support emails and actually tracking it down, so I want to make others aware of it so they don’t similarly burned. Brief intro For the uninitiated, UserDefaults (née NSUserDefaults) is the de facto iOS standard for persisting non-sensitive, non-massive data to “disk” (AKA offline). In other words, are you storing some user preferences, maybe your user’s favorite ice cream flavors? UserDefaults is great, and used extensively from virtually every iOS app to Apple sample code. Large amount of data, or sensitive data? Look elsewhere! This is as opposed to just storing it in memory where if the user restarts the app all the data is wiped out.
