Ok. So now both Apple and Microsoft are distributors of the Linux kernel. What a timeline.
it’s the year of the linux desktop without the year of the linux desktop.
It’s everyday the year of Linux !
Cool. Podman Desktop should be easier after this. Presumably, it’s still a Linux VM driven by something written by Apple instead of qemu.
No macOS containers though. Being able to spin up macOS containers would have been nice for builds and isolating things like pkgsrc.

If containers are part of your work then you wouldn’t buy a 8GB RAM unupgradable device anyway.
You’re right. I wouldn’t, but someone did for me!
Bad IT departments are a PITA.
If it’s a work computer, tell your IT department it’s getting in the way of your job.
:notlikethis:
You’re doing it wrong. I want to run a macOS container on Linux
But why?
Certain application only has Mac OS or Windows version.
How the GPU support, does it support Metal?!
Mac and Linux feel like cousins than ultra far apart at times.
Embrace <-- You are here
Extend
Extinguish
Fuck Apple
I’ll believe it if I see it.

So I guess now you can run some games.
Yeah, about that… Heroic game launcher is free and can run a loooooooot of pc games. It now runs pc steam directly.
Noice!
I wonder if they’re going to allow GPU access from inside the VMs.
Can you run amd64 containers?
It supports Rosetta2, so yes.
Sweet, that will help me, although it takes away my last blocker allowing me to use my Linux box as my primary blocker.
I guess I will have to comain about performance or something.
However, with macOS 26 (Tahoe) being the final version for Intel-based Macs, Rosetta 2 will be on the chopping block afterwards.

mwa@thelemmy.club It is certified to be UNIX, yes. But Linux is not UNIX. Not that it would matter if Linux was certified to be UNIX anyhow. UNIX is a certification that you go through and pay for. The kernel beneath is not necessarily binary compatible with other UNIX operating systems.
It is based on Unix yeah but Linux and Unix are different enough.
Isn’t it this one ? https://github.com/apple/containerization
Proud of you!
Container and Ai ! Now you get the sparkle junkie virus, guys!
