There was this one from a couple years ago that was about self-driving cars and also sponsored by Waymo. Tom Nicholas made a video which IMO does a good job of covering the problems with that video, and the broader implications of this kind of content on YouTube.

8·3 years agoIts almost certainly a VirtualBox issue. I would suggest changing the graphics controller to one of the other options. I have my Linux VMs set to VMSVGA as that has had the fewest bugs.
If it makes you feel any better, VirtualBox 7 has had quite a few regressions specifically with the graphics stack and has caused problems with all of my VMs. My Windows 11 VM only rendered a black screen until 7.0.10 and all my other VMs are still using old versions of Guest Additions because of the instability with the newer versions.
I’m excited for Cosmic, but not because I’m interested in trying it, rather that I want see how their toolkit does. They’ve done a good job on their Gnome fork so I trust they know what a good desktop looks like.
I really want to see Iced in action because of how it could compare to the current state of GTK.
It has been a little over 2 years since GTK 4 released to positive reception and no one else has ported to GTK 4 yet. Even worse, only Pantheon is actually working on a port, and the other GTK-based DEs, XFCE included, don’t have plans to port to GTK 4 yet. Given the lacking pace of this transition and System76’s decision to forego a port at all, instead developing their own solution, makes me worried that GTK 4 is either much more difficult to port to than Gnome let on, or that GTK 4 has broken something so essential to these DEs that they don’t want to put development time into a port at all.
Given this state, I’m curious to see how this plays out because it could decide if other DEs stick with GTK or choose to adopt something else, like how LXDE was discontinued in favor of replacing it with LXQt.
Edit: Fixed a couple typos
I’ve been using Linux off and on again for the past decade.
The original reason I used Linux was because as a kid I got stuck with whatever old laptop was laying around, so my dad would install Ubuntu to make it usable.
When I built my first computer a couple years ago and started using Windows 10, that’s when Windows stopped working for me. Nothing made me want to switch more than when the major Windows 10 updates broke my software every 6 months.
