VMs can't boot with Network Mode set to Bridged on Apple M5 Pro machines
- mcfdoesdev 2mo agoThat's super weird.
- kazinator 2mo agoRemember, if shoes were like software, they would explode while you're trying to tie the laces, because the first of the month landed on a Tuesday.
- pjmlp 2mo agoUnfortunately most consumers put up with it, instead of handling it like shoes, returning them to the shop for a refund, or if surviving the explosion, a lawsuit.
- kazinator 2mo agoShoes today are garbage that wears through within half a year; consumers are accepting it and coming back for more.
- mindslight 2mo agoHalf of a year is getting awfully close to the timeline of a many return policies, and most people do like saving money. Just saying...
- somat 2mo agoThe Samuel Vimes Boot theory of economic unfairness comes to mind. Oh wow, it has it's own wikipedia page. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boots_theory https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boots_theory
- ChrisMarshallNY 2mo agoToo bad they don't give Nobels for literature posthumously. That single paragraph could win it. Well ... maybe I'm biased ...
- kazinator 2mo agoI actually have a pair of John Fluevog boots, circa 1999 vintage, which are scuffed but wearable. The most I had to do is glue up some rubber separation in the heels with a bit of epoxy. I wore them as recently as last year; not lately though.
- pjmlp 2mo agoDepends, not everyone buys on street bazaar, and usually most that put up with low quality is because they sadly cannot afford any better.
- HPsquared 2mo agoI wonder how much of the "shoes used to last longer" thing is down to individuals getting older and heavier over time. Also time perception changes with age. It's probably still true, though.
- kazinator 2mo agoTwo real, major issues: - 30 years ago, you couldn't buy sports shoes (sneakers, runners, tennis shoes, court boots, whatever) that have only a foam midsole, no hard rubber outsole of any kind. A very light, foamy type of running shoe called a "race flat" did exist, but you had to go to a specialist store to find that. Without an outsole, EVA foam wears down fast. Stay away from these shoes unless you're looking to use them as bedroom slippers; always look for an outsole. If the shoe is not for a specific sport, look for trail runners, which have more outsole coverage on the bottom, often an uninterrupted one piece outsole. - Most shoes today that look like they have a thick sole are actually hollow. If you peel off the layers of insoles, you see that the outsole is "ice cube tray" shell with voids. When the thin bottom of this tray wears through, they leak water. It just has to wear through in one spot, like the very back of the heel, and it's done as far as resisting water, and when it wears some more, rock can actually push up into the voids. All this can happen well under a year. I distinctly remember growing up with shoes that were solid, heel to toe.
- hnav 2mo agoAs much as it pains me to toss shoes every year, I much prefer the light, flexible construction of disposable shoes to the heavy rigidity of made-to-last ones.
- iamtheworstdev 2mo agoBuy better shoes. Quit buying Allbirds and Hey Dudes
- reaperducer 2mo agoYou are so right. Shoes are one of those things where you get what you pay for. Unfortunately, not everyone has access to quality shoes, either for reasons of money or geography. I was given a pair of really nice shoes once. They've lasted me almost 20 years because I live in a large city where I can stop at a shoe shine stand every few weeks, and also have them re-soled as they wear. Most people buy plastic junk from Amazon because they don't know better. See also: People who work in offices, but still carry around a massive backpack like they're in sixth grade.
- SlightlyLeftPad 2mo agoAgree. I’ve heard great things about RUNLOWE and GOTOE. You can find them as the first 100 results on Amazon if you search for “Adidas running shoes.”
- phoghed 2mo agoAnalogy kind of falls apart when you consumers are willing to put up with quite a lot to save a buck. They happily build their own furniture for example.
- pjmlp 2mo agoOnly a subset of them.
- Aurornis 2mo agoClassic GitHub issue thread: Someone shows up and tries to explain it’s not a bug and never could have worked. Everyone else points out that it does work on other Mac hardware. Person doubles down and tries to claim that the bug was that it ever worked, and not working is the correct behavior. New Mac OS beta release fixes the bug and makes it work. Nothing related to the repo was changed.
- montjoy 2mo agoThis is actually what’s interesting
- doctorpangloss 2mo agoremember how there used to be people whose lifestyle was answering Stack Overflow questions? 3 years from now we're going to be looking at charts showing engagement from GitHub Lifestyle people going straight down too.
- lloydatkinson 2mo agoLike that probably still open huge github issue with hundreds of comments, the one about how docker will blow your firewall wide open.
- fouc 2mo agoAlso classic, someone finally jumping in with a full and insightful explanation. What a turnaround!

- subarctic 2mo agoSo, are they gonna add official support for this in the wifi standard someday? It sounds like the way that this works is a non-standard workaround

- billti 2mo agoI couldn't get bridged networking to work with my M5 machine and VMs running on Parallels. This thread here would seem to indicate it's a known issue (with no updates or resolution :/ ) - https://forum.parallels.com/threads/m5-macbook-air-windows-11-arm-coherence-wont-work-nor-bridged-networking.369660/page-2 https://forum.parallels.com/threads/m5-macbook-air-windows-1...
- arjie 2mo agoThe OP has a thing that solves it for many: update to a beta version.
- ArchOversight 2mo agoThe linked Github also states that updating to 26.6 works.
- juancn 2mo agoI love when things work out in the end! (issue is fixed in the latest MacOS 26 and 27 betas)
- broknbottle 2mo agoWithout looking too deep, I bet their dext wasn’t exposing necessary configuration. I’ve seen this with other third party network hardware and dext, where it was missing certain configuration for bridging to work
- whatever1 2mo agoM5 networking stack is a mess. A lot of corporate deployments had to wait for Apple to patch up things
