Exploring Windows XP on macOS ARM64
Researching a little showed that this is basically what can be expected running x86 emulation and the systems will just be wonky and slow, although it was running flawlessly, just slow.
There seem to be ways to use Rosetta2 inside a VM [0] to then translate binaries but I found no official support or documentation (using UTM+QEMU that was), this would be such a cool feature, at least there are discussions about it [1,2]

UTM for Developers
UTM makes it easy to set up and manage macOS and Windows virtual machines. This can be especially useful for developers such as Tauri contributors who need to test their applications across multiple platforms, or for those looking to experiment with different operating systems without affecting their primary system.

What is the best way to run Windows 10 or 11 (whatever is better) on a 2020 MacBook Air M1?
If you don't need high performance and want to use the OS only occasionally, check UTM.app, at https://mac.getutm.app/ (or https://github.com/utmapp/UTM ). Free, open source.

Ask HN: Tips to get started on my own server
If you use a Mac and just want to mess around with linux try something like Orbstack(https://orbstack.dev/) to start up VMs and mess around. The benefit of this is you're going to break things a bunch as you get started. Going from there I'd start looking automating the deployment of the various components the 'old fashioned' way aka writing shell scripts/using SSH. Once you do that then go to using things like Ansible or Terraform etc.

Ask HN: Who is hiring? (February 2024)
OrbStack | Founding Engineer | US/Europe REMOTE | Full-time | https://orbstack.dev
OrbStack is making Docker containers & development environments delightful. Our app replaces Docker Desktop and makes containers faster, lighter, and easier to work with. It's the tool of choice for PlanetScale, Replicate, and other hot companies.
Containers should be a joy to use, not something you have to put up with. Let's build the future of dev envs.
As a founding engineer, you'll mainly work on breaking high-level ideas down into tough systems problems, solving them, and taking ownership of projects. If https://cpu.land and https://docs.orbstack.dev/architecture excite you, you'll be right in place.

How Virtualisation came to Apple Silicon Macs
Before you give up, give OrbStack a try: https://orbstack.dev/
It’s significantly faster than Docker and some users in the Discord community have been able to use it to run hand-built Linux x86 VMs on Apple Silicon.
It’s a paid product though, but you can download it for free and try it out before paying.

Podman Desktop v1.5 with Compose onboarding and enhanced Kubernetes pod data
For MacOS I can really recommend https://orbstack.dev
It integrates very nicely, has very low CPU idle usage and also lets you quickly spawn VMs with bidirectional file sharing set up.
Since I switched I haven't looked back.
- Any idea what this icon is in the menu bar on my Mac? I've got the spinning beach ball every time I hover over it and it's been like that for weeks. What is it and process do I need to kill?
