Ersei, the developer behind this so-called Cloud Native Computer, says the project was primarily a “silly” pursuit. There is also a problem with booting from Google Drive currently being very slow. However, the dev also boasts that “the possibilities are endless” and would welcome any companies or individuals who wish to get in contact and discuss commercializing this project or something related to it.
So it’s a thin client remote booting extremely slowly over a really high latency connection. Cool, the 1980s called and they want their tech back.

“We’re looking for dumb investors that don’t understand technology so we can sell them a bridge.”
Soo, booting your computer from someone else’s computer?
I mean we’ve had thin clients and PXE for ages?
More being able to use cloud storage and not need a full physical secondary computer. In theory the cloud can be accessed anywhere, even if a portion is down, not the same for a single physical PC.
is the non physical cloud in the room right now?
Nope! That’s the point. It’s in someone else’s room!
Google redundancy.

The cloud is many computers with a redundancy, you putting multiple PCs in remote locations so you can access when one goes down….?
One requires two physical computers, while one requires one and the cloud. Not a hard concept here or anything people.

Okay so you should comprehend how multiple “computers” allow a redundancy over a single one.
Yeah….?
You can’t access a remote physical computer without internet either? So what’s your point here?

I do, clearly you don’t if you need to ask the question.
So what are you doing here exactly? You’re not adding to the discussion, so that would make you a troll, no?
The joke is about what exactly you’re doing with the cloud with no physical computer in front of you.
Wow this sounds useless. Congratulations or whatever.
the thing that gets me is that said dev tried it first with amazon S3 and it worked infinitely better there
Probably a bit more expensive though, depending how much storage you need.
So they reinvented terminals, but worse
Aw yiss, all of my information on Google’s servers siiiiiicc
