Using Finch to run Apache Airflow using mwaa-local-runner
I was getting hundreds of permissions errors. Oh no, I knew this was going too well. Looking at the current issues within the Finch GitHub repo, I found an issue that I thought would help resolve this problem. Looking at this I created a new docker-compose file to take into consideration some of the comments, as well as adding a new step.

Colima: Container runtimes on macOS (and Linux) with minimal setup
You can also try finch from AWS which combines a similar stack

I work at AWS and helped with testing finch during development

Serious Question: why use Docker Desktop? (from a Linux user)
I've not used this myself, but they are pushing this at work instead of having to pay for Docker Desktop - Check out Finch - OpenSource

Forget Azure SQL Edge on a M1 Mac—Run full-blown SQL Server Linux instead (a how-to)
Lima is still quite new and I am even newer to it so bear in mind that there may be better ways to wield this weapon. There is also a lot of development in this space with the likes of Finch, Multipass and others offering potential alternatives or simplifications to this approach so watch this space!

Packer Workflows with Jenkins
Multipass I love Multipass for quick Ubuntu instances spun up for testing or as a playground. Wish I would have known and used of it sooner.

VMs on macOS using Apple's native Virtualization.Framework
If you just need Ubuntu then you can try "Multipass" from Canonical (https://multipass.run/). Works quite well on my M2 Air. I haven't tried using Linux GUI with it though as I need only terminal based VMs.

Simulate an Ubuntu-like VM inside macOS
Multipass is pretty clutch for trivial VMs on MacOs for sure. I use it for a bunch of ssh jump boxes running vpns to different sites. The macOS build does not support custom images (lest not without [some truly insane hacks](https://github.com/canonical/multipass/issues/1260#issuecomm...) , which doesn’t really matter for what I use it for but it is kind of a bummer. If you need something with a little more grunt but don’t want to go full blown with writing your own QEMU tooling or fussing with something like UTM or Parallels, [quickemu](https://github.com/quickemu-project/quickemu) is a really nice qemu wrapper with sane defaults that can expose a whole lot of power if you need it.

VirtualBox 7.0.10 download links have disappeared
I would be cautious or even distrustful of using anything from Oracle. VirtualBox components come under three different licenses - GPLv2, personal use & evaluation license, and an enterprise license. Their VirtualBox license FAQ [1] gives them enough leeway to change future licenses at will. If an exploit is discovered in your old VirtualBox and they've changed the license, you're out of luck.
We've moved our development to KVM and Virtual Machine Manager on Linux [3] and UTM on Mac [4]. There are other options to run your VM, such as Multipass [5] or VirtualBuddy [6].
On a digressive topic - it was fun migrating our legacy application server stack from Oracle Java (old & poorly considered decision) to OpenJDK, thanks to their license [2].

Lima: A nice way to run Linux VMs on Mac

Hands-on Kubernetes and maybe go for a certification
If you have a reasonably beefy computer, you can always try setting up Multipass and set up 2-3 nodes for a k8s cluster, it's how I'm doing my own certification training. I do have a k3s Raspberry Pi cluster, but with Pi prices being what they are still it'd almost be cheaper to do a cloud setup. ☹️

Colima: Container runtimes on macOS (and Linux) with minimal setup
Whenever I need a VM on my MacOS I reach out to Multipass[1].
It is a project by Canonical and has a decent amount of features to get the job done. However, it only supports Ubuntu VMs and has some rough edges.
