    I will admit, I miss the smooth graphics of Virtualbox. It’s quite evident with dragging windows around or playing a video inside a VM. Don’t want to touch Oracle stuff anymore though. Anyone here manage to get that working on virt-manager?

        Besides technical nuances, trademarking JavaScript, bribery and so on, the co-founder and past CEO of Oracle, Larry Ellison, who was briefly the richest guy on Earth, is now involved with USA’s Republican party e.g. on TikTok regional sale’s deal and one of the persons making Oracle openly support israeli war efforts.

        Oracle is a shady company. They do this cute little trick where they give out free software, but if it ever appears in a corporate environment and phones home, that’s no longer free and they shake down the company the person they tricked works at. So Sharon in department X brings her laptop from home and hops on the company wifi and virtualbox phones home, now her employer is being sued. They do lot of other shit too but a general rule in the IT world is to stay the fuck away from oracle whenever possible.
