Private Mitteilungen drahtlos zu übermitteln, aber ohne Internet - das soll Bitchat hinkriegen. Der Ansatz ist nicht ganz neu.

Today, I celebrate 20 years of Vienna, the open source macOS RSS reader.

Protip: For all of you vibe coders out there using macOS, you can ask Claude Code to send you a notification when it's finished implementing the task you asked it to do.

I have a question...

Why is it that so many of Apple's own apps do not remember their sidebar/inspector's widths?

This is literally free behavior in #AppKit and is also possible in #SwiftUI for #macOS without any work. I know because my apps do it -- both macOS apps (one in SwiftUI and the other in AppKit).

But so many of Apple's first party apps will not persist the widths you've set.

Shortcuts.app was one and now Icon Composer.

I asked the question : Do you want a laptop with Copilot+?

1% said yes.
96% said (hell) no.
3% were not sure.

This is a great example of something being pushed that most really do not want.

Big Tech is very focused on winning the AI war. Problem is, that in their eagerness to do that, they focus just on what they want you to do, instead of what you want to do.

Would be interesting if the new #MacBook also had 5G connectivity, which might explain why #Apple is including a phone app in #macOS 26. https://www.macrumors.com/2025/07/04/the-macrumors-show-macbook-with-a18-pro-chip/

The integrated Audio Converter in #NeoFinder 8.9 for #macOS now has an option to automatically place the exported files in the same folder as the original songs!

That is very helpful if you convert a whole lot of song files at once, and these are all placed in different folders.

technical question:

why do OS installations take ages - we're talking 30+minutes on modern hardware?

what are they doing?

naively I thought

1. just coping 1s and 0s to a disk shouldn't take that long, even 4GB of them.

2. maybe the installer is testing hardware works? surely that doesn't take 30-60 minutes.

we're talking windows, solaris, macOS, not just Linux.

BSDs seem to do (1) above.

A lot of polishing in the new Vivaldi 7.5.

Our goal is to make a browser that is powerful, personal and private. We continue our efforts there. I hope you enjoy it!

The Inspector in #NeoFinder 8.9 now shows the video codecs "hev1" and "hvc1" as separate values, they are really not the same, and only "hev1" is actually supported by #macOS.
