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.

    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.

        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.

          The joke is about what exactly you’re doing with the cloud with no physical computer in front of you.

            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?

                    What is so hard to understand about one needing two full physical computers, while one needs a single full physical computer?

                    refusing to answer

                    I did answer and the statement wasn’t nonsense. What’s hard to understand about the difference between two and one…?

                    One has redundancy and one doesn’t… not shockingly they are different things for this reason……
