Make The Keychain Work When Compiling Your Own NoMAD
Yesterday, I wrote up how to compile your own version of an open source Xcode app and used NoMAD as an example, for those who didn’t want to use the precompiled application bundle. Many software packages have permissions to do do various tasks. NoMAD interacts with the keychain, so will have to use a TeamID, or to expand the term, the Team Identifier Prefix. This means the new version won’t be able to access keychain items created by previous versions of NoMAD, which use the creators prefix (I didn’t reference Joel as “the Creator” – but “a creator” to be clear). Ergo, this article is really just for helping those…

Quick And Dirty Guide To Compiling Your Own Version Of An Open Source Xcode Project For Testing
There are plenty of apps out there that can be beneficial to an organization, but don’t really make sense to live on an app store. This might be because the app uses private APIs, breaks acceptable design patterns, needs to be customized for every use case, is just proof of concept code, etc, etc, etc. Anyone with an Apple Developer certificate can compile an app to test it on their local machine. We can go into more detail later for people that want to then distribute/re-distribute those apps… To get started, first we’ll clone the project to our local machine. To do so, in Github or Gitlab or wherever it…

Test A Fork Of NoMAD Maybe?
tldr: here’s a slightly modernized fork of NoMAD that needs a little testing: https://gitlab.com/krypted1/nomad2 Been working on a fork of NoMAD that will hopefull just modernize code and get merged back in. In general, the changes shouldn’t be noticed with a big exception, it’s a breaking change for machines that run an operating system older than Catalina. Apple changes APIs and so we have the option to either introduce a breaking change or make the code really complicated by retaining existing code or moving to new APIs. So this version starts to transition away from UIKit and towards Swift UI. It also removes Carthage in favor of Swift Package Manager.…

3D Printable Mold to Make Clay Cobblestones
Not life-sized cobblestones, mind you. But those for miniature wargaming. Although according to the size of the printer, I guess you could. The goal with this stl was to be able to print a thing, press clay into it, and maybe experiment with other materials. Theoretically it could be infilled and used as actual terrain pieces, but there are probably better pieces for that out there for download. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5917937
