iOS 26 Beta 2

on
On June 23, 2025, Apple released the second developer beta of iOS 26 (build 23A5276f), marking the first round of refinements since the OS’s unveiling at WWDC 2025. This coordinated beta update also rolled out matching beta 2 builds for iPadOS 26, macOS Tahoe 26, tvOS 26, visionOS 26, and watchOS 26, underscoring Apple’s unified cross-platform beta strategy. Since the initial beta dropped on June 9, developers have been experimenting with the new Liquid Glass design, expanded Apple Intelligence capabilities, and overhauled core apps. Beta 2 focuses on improving legibility, bolstering accessibility, and fine-tuning app experiences in preparation for the public beta in July and the final release expected this fall.

Ubuntu in VMware workstation 17

on
Download the Ubuntu iso here for installation in

VMware workstation 17.0 for a cheap price

If using an earlier version than 22.04 LTS, you'll need to manually update the snap store

sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade

sudo snap refresh


It is easy to install Ubuntu on VMware workstation 17. I find that on VirtualBox the 'sudo' commands don't work and you may run into the error 'user is not found in the sudoers list'



Simply start VMware workstation machine wizard and use a typical configuration



Browse to the Ubuntu iso file and click next



Here you will create a username and password. You will need this to log in and use Sudo commands in the terminal



Enter a location for Ubuntu virtual machine




I have Ubuntu installed on one of my external drives and have the storage size at 500 gigabytes



If you have a lot of ram you can use 16gb of ram for the VM so you can get the most use of your systems GPU 



Tap on done and start the virtual machine 



It's pretty straightforward. Set it up like any typical os. Install 3rd party drivers if you want
