Getting a Shell in the Docker Desktop Mac VM

2021 Update: Easiest option is Justin's repo and image

Just run this from your Mac terminal and it'll drop you in a container with full permissions on the Docker VM. This also works for Docker for Windows for getting in Moby Linux VM (doesn't work for Windows Containers).

docker run -it --rm --privileged --pid=host justincormack/nsenter1

cURL: Selecting a custom DNS server to resolve domain names
#!/usr/bin/env bash
# this can be useful when developing against a custom DNS server, or
# for example, if you made a change to the DNS settings of a domain, and you
# know the authoritative nameserver IP address for a domain, you could use this
# to bypass the intermediate DNS cache, and apply an HTTP request using the new
# DNS settings supplied by your specified (authoritative) nameserver
