#virtualmachine
Im Dezember 2022 einen Snapshot bei einer #Virtualbox VM angelegt, jetzt aus irgendwelchen Gründen wiedergefunden und diesen gelöscht, Zack 80GB Platz auf der SSD frei.

I have been having a problem with my main server. It cannot hold "internet" for more than 15 minutes (or less). This has been happening for the last week. A little background is I have a Ubuntu 20.04 virtual machine running on Windows 10 via Oracle VirtualBox.
I share the WiFi connection with the host, and about every gig of data, or about 15 minutes, my host OS network just stops working. It says that it is connected to WiFi, but after every single troubleshoot, it says that the "Default Domain Name Server could not be reached" then resets the WiFi adaptor, and then the internet starts working again until the aforementioned case happens again. If I don't even start the VM, it takes longer to get the 1 gig of data, but eventually no internet again.
What I want to know is where the breakdown is happening. Is my WiFi nic bad? Is my router bad? Is the Oracle VM drivers screwed up somehow?
I'm going to be spending some more time with the #BSD , #ReactOS , and #Haiku #operatingsystems - this week. They've always been seen as the underdogs compared to #Windows , #macOS , and #Linux - from what I can tell, which is sad.
In my opinion, BSD is the closest to "making it" as a daily driver operating system, for me, and maybe for quite a few people, I like the #GhostBSD distro the best, it's what I've been using the most so far.
I do very much value the goals of ReactOS, but I don't believe it's anywhere near "there" yet when it comes to its stability, featureset, and compatibility, but I do hope that one day it will get there, if it gains enough traction with developers and donations/funding.
Haiku is really promising with its recent developments, but still does need more work. It's quite stable, but I have had some issues with it, on some hardware. It has seen a lot of work recently, from what I can tell, and I do hope it goes places more in the future.
If I had to rank them from best most-stable daily-driver, down to worst-not-yet-viable, I'd have to say BSD wins, with Haiku second, and ReactOS last.
They're very good promising operating systems, and I don't see them talked about anywhere near as much as I wish I did, perhaps you should try them out in a #VM #virtualmachine ..? Would be an interesting way to spend an afternoon, if you're nerdy like me~
