Remote development is where the VS Code vs Cursor debate gets uncomfortable for Cursor fans. Both editors share the same Electron shell and the same extension API, but the moment you SSH into a cloud box, spin up a dev container, or try to code from a machine with 4GB of RAM, the two editors…
Gopher64 has quietly become the emulator that N64 fans point to first in 2026, and the search numbers back it up. Monthly search volume for the term climbed from roughly 390 in September 2025 to 1,600 by mid-2026, according to DataForSEO keyword data, a jump that tracks almost exactly with the emulator’s own release cadence.…
Cursor’s Model Context Protocol (MCP) integration has quietly become one of the most searched setup topics among developers moving between Visual Studio Code and Cursor in 2026. Searches for “cursor mcp servers” now pull roughly 720 monthly queries in the US, and the reason is simple: MCP lets an AI coding agent reach outside the…
An open-source command-line tool built by a solo developer has done something Apple never officially offered: boot a complete, real copy of iOS as a virtual machine on a Mac. The project, called vphone-cli, jumped from a niche GitHub repo to nearly 12,000 stars in under seven months, and as of this week it runs…

Rumors that Apple might enter the game controller business have circulated for some time. But last week, MacRumors reported finding two references in macOS 26.7’s code to two game controllers identified as first-party…
Local co-op died with the living room. Most retro sessions today happen with a friend three states away, and screen-sharing tools like Parsec add a full frame of lag on top of whatever the emulator itself costs you. Netplay skips that tax by syncing inputs, not video, which is why Dolphin, RetroArch, and PCSX2 all…
Every Steam Deck owner eventually hits the same wall: a game launches fine on Windows but crashes, stutters, or refuses to boot on Linux. The fix usually isn’t a new graphics driver or a reinstalled game. It’s a different build of Proton. As of September 2026, Valve’s default Proton sits at version 11.0-2, the community-maintained…
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company posted its highest monthly revenue in company history on September 11, 2026, and the number tells a bigger story than one good month. TSMC booked NT$514.81 billion in August sales, up 10.1% from July and 53.3% higher than the same month a year earlier, according to company figures cited by industry…
