Open an Application Using Rosetta - Make M1 Apps Run as Intel Apps

Our favorite setup:

Apple Silicon has been out for a while now and most applications have been updated and optimized for M1 Macs. But if you run into a problem where the Apple Silicon version of your application is missing any functionality, you might want to open that application using Rosetta. This essentially forces native M1 Mac apps to run as an Intel app.

The process is simple but somewhat hidden so here's a quick tutorial on how to open applications using Rosetta.
