VirtualBuddy 2.2 beta 2 adds a workaround for a Virtualization bug that's preventing folks from installing macOS 27 virtual machines in macOS 26 hosts đź‘€ #wwdc26

FB23060493 - Allow building for older macOS deployment targets in Xcode 27

Pasting a huge AI generated explanation to a problem in an issue or pull-request is nothing but RUDE. Don't do it. You look stupid and the receivers of that feel insulted.

We are humans. We communicate like humans. Fine, use the tools you like, but don't insult us.

FYI, installing #Xcode27 beta broke the ability to create VMs on my installation of macOS 26.5.1. Tried UTM and VirtualBuddy.

I had to install the #macos27 beta on a dedicated APFS volume, was able to create the VM there, and copy it over to my production install.

According to an Apple Engineer, it’s a “late incompatibility between the VZMacOSInstaller API on macOS 26.6 and the macOS 27 IPSW”.

It’s also the one Accessibility setting that takes the Liquid Glass slider even more to the right.

Another on my list of small niceties in macOS 27 beta: we have decoupled Show Borders from Increase Contrast for apps using the new design. This is great for people who just want a little more edge definition on UI elements, but don't want to jump all the way to the weighty color changes of Increase Contrast.

❌ Error: The macOS deployment target 'MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET' is set to 10.14, but the range of supported deployment target versions is 12.0 to 27.0.x.

#Xcode27

I just love that toolbars have clear/strict dividers again in #macOS27.

Whoever said your content and UI should blend is a liar.

What a wonderful and welcome fix in #macOS27.

So:
• With Siri AI, Apple deliberately developed a brand-new (and central) OS feature that they knew would not meet the DMA requirements they've been subjected to since 2023
• They went to the EU Commission with the proposal of a technical solution that is not ready and would not roll out before 18 months
• The EU Commission said no because lol what do you mean you plan to disobey the DMA *again* for the next 18 months
• Apple whines
