This is Real!! MacOS Docker

[@SxC97]

The only issue is the lack of GPU acceleration, but that's on the roadmap so I'm keeping a close eye on the repo.

[@dsedchenko]

It can be overcome with AMD GPU and PCI passthrough

[@nguyenhanh9479]

@@dsedchenko PCI passthrough is not really a solution.

[@hotrodhunk7389]

​@@nguyenhanh9479passthrough seems like such a pain. I believe Nvidia blocks it in non commercial gpus

Another docker series banger by Novaspirit Tech! Thanks SickCodes 🤘

1:54 - Even allows a Ventura install... Please note that I bought a 4,000+ USD Mac Pro in 2018 - 64GB RAM / 12 core CPU / maximum GPU option - and Apple doesn't even allow me to install Ventura.

[@memphisartguy2]

Did a OSX install on Prox Mox this weekend and it was interesting, but with our graphics acceleration its pretty worthless. Even TOP seem to be struggling in the terminal. I haven't gotten any containers to work under Prox Mox yet. Trying to figure it out. Thanks for your videos!

[@ALucaRD807]

wait, that's just qemu. that's nothing new, you don't need a layer of docker on top of it

[@martinstewart5887]

now all we need to do is do it on an m1/2 mac on Asahi Linux with GPU passthrough

[@arozendojr]

Contributing, sorry for my english The ventura version also works great xcode, swift and reac-native, I really liked it, too bad it's slow, 10 min to open the ios simulator, my PC i7-2630QM 2.00 GHz , 16gb RAM DDR3 and SSD 120 Evo 840 SATA MAC size on PC disk 80 gigs on averages after installing Xcode and iOS simulator

[@offroadpatriot7219]

Once GPU acceleration/utilization is implemented. Then this will become actually useful. Don't get me wrong it's very cool but in most use cases it wouldn't work as something people could use until GPU support is enabled.

[@user-jk9zr3sc5h]

This would be used for developers. otherwise I've had Mac OSX running with gpu acceleration in KVM

[@igordasunddas3377]

I think the most recent version of MacOS is Ventura, not Catalina... But it's impressive either way. Wow.

[@NovaspiritTech]

Yup it's possible to run that as well on this

[@MatteoCeccarini]

Why would you want to do that instead of installing it in a KVM, with all the flexibility of GPU passthrough and alike?

[@yossibirenboim7133]

I tried to install on my windows machine , got error: "error gathering device information while adding device information dev/kvm"

[@ruxcooking]

Not a mac user at all but stuff like this is always interesting.

[@beauslim]

So it is using docker tools to set up QEMU/KVM? Cool, but not world changing.

[@user-jk9zr3sc5h]

But very accessible.

[@nickswebtsv]

I’m going give this a go as a local network cache for Apple updates to help save some bandwidth.

[@ominousred]

That's an interesting idea.

[@tedifibri]

undecided

[@anispinner]

Have you tried using Garage Band? I wonder if the speed is passable. Pretty much the only reason of using mac nowadays.

[@igordasunddas3377]

Except battery life, performance and heat (or rather the lack thereof).

[@jahbear6533]

what are the customizations you use for the taskbar and desktop including icons for Ubuntu?

[@citizenclown]

Just so I understand, once you close that session, it is done and you have to do all that over again unless you do whatever voodoo you talked about the "naked" image stuff?

[@MatthewN8OHU]

I think I will have to keep this in mind for when I reinstall Docker Desktop on my laptop.

Here is my workaround to not losing anything on the VM: Pause the VM

[@TechTonor]

I enjoyed the video. If you're considering creating a simular video, PLEASE consider to put a few minutes into what's Docker actually handles in the process. I use KVM's for a few things (running both a few Linux and a Windows VM). Even my native dual boot Windows NVMe drive are optimized to be booted as a KVM in my Linus desktop env, but also by the host machine directly. Here QEMU is in use too, and I found it odd that you're saying multiple times that "It's QEMU but only a single Docker command" and simular statement. I know It's important to simplify the topic a bit, but personally I'm a bit confused about how you taggle the technical details related to this. Cause... Why shouldn't I just run it straight in a KVM instance, right? If so, the Docker related things is only to speed up the process. O? Some other viewers must have had the same thoughts here. So I hope you find the feedback usefull. With that said: Thank you for the video! It's still great to watch your content ☺️👏. DISCLAIMER: I've not found time to dig around in the repo - but that's kinda unrelated, right? 😅

Oh, you are running Mac OS *in* a container, I thought you might ahve somehow gotten containers actually working on Mac!

[@sotonin]

uhm... containers work fine in mac. docker supports mac and has for a lonnnnnng time.

[@_badz]

@@sotonin does it? Are you SURE the containers arent actually running in a Linux virtual machine that Docker desktop creates behind the scenes? Arent C-groups, the thing that makes containers contained, a feature of the Linux kernel and not supported at all by Darwin? Are you sure?

[@diego.e.a]

@KL I ended up doing just that. I'm running a BlueBubbles server on an old MacBook pro. What a night and day difference in comparison to AirMessage.

[@farzadmf]

I guess it installs some kind of a "trial version" or something like that? Or is it completely usable and all?

[@NovaspiritTech]

it's full version

[@farzadmf]

Wow, INTERESTING!! So, MacOS doesn't have Windows' concept of requiring a product key and those stuff? Or this Docker image is done in a way that it doesn't need those?

[@Darkk6969]

Full version. Apple expects you to run this on a real Mac hardware which is why they don't do license keys. Obviously you won't get any support from Apple but it does give a nice working preview of the MacOS if you are thinking about buying a real Mac.

[@farzadmf]

Very nice, but pass for me! I find this super interesting in case you want to try something on a Mac, but I've been using a Mac because of my company and I can say it's wayyyy down my list if I want to buy a laptop 🙂 But, as I said, I really like the idea of this, and I appreciate you sharing it
