"You _must_ use a Cloud computer in order to make sure you're not doing anything illegal."
Amazon et al. will have to pry my tech from my cold, dead hands.
I'm just trying to isolate myself now from these toxic developments. If society falls into techno fascism after I'm gone, so be it. They wanted it. While I am around I'll shield myself as much as possible by self hosting, custom phone ROMs etc.
But no for me never. I hate cloud.
You'll own nothing and like it. Not even your 'own' data. Everything sitting on someone else's server, free to access by whichever government agency feels like it. This is like communism x1000.
most of the time i'm doomscrolling, but every now and then you wanna play with linux, or llvm, or some VM cluster.
i bought a beefy rig for these 1% events in my life, and the rest of the time its doing basically nothing. seems a real waste.
So, uh. Yeah. I'll get right back on that "cloud PC" thing.
