    I wonder if they’re going to allow GPU access from inside the VMs.

      Apple being Apple, the answer is probably yes. But realistically there’s going to be some stupid hurdle in the way and because they make it a PITA nobody’s really going to do it.

      Which really sucks because the massive GPU and “unified memory” is incredible when they work in conjunction.

      If containers are part of your work then you wouldn’t buy a 8GB RAM unupgradable device anyway.

    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.

      And here it is.

      Small VMs, like everything else.

      While I read the title I was thinking “that sounds like Linux with extra steps” - maybe that’s good enough for some discussion.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
