Cloud computing will eventually be king. Users will have a tiny very underpowered device that can only effectively receive and stream video, sending commands back to the cloud server. The OS, all installed programs, and data will be on the cloud server. Think of something Raspberry Pi Zero type level of hardware that only needs to receive a 1080p stream. Yet, the cloud computing will give it access to super computer levels of processing.
There are gaming services that allow you to do this very thing right now. Depending on where you are located and how good your internet it, they can be pretty formidable or shit due to lag times. You can also use an OS function, 3rd party program, or service to setup your own cloud-based processing system between two devices you own. You could slave a beefy gaming rig to a shitty underpowered device so you can play AAA level games and programs that are massive resource hogs. You can use that over LAN or access it from remote locations around the world if needed.
Now imagine Microsoft doing this, but charging people for the service by month/year/processor cycles/storage amount or whatever.

Literally a Stallman dystopia story.

Same guy also posted a "Stallman is pro Epstein" article.

It's already happening with a lot of business software. Everyone will be cucked by the cloud in the future. Shit like AWS or Azure is wide-spread already
Some fields like translation literally require absolute ownership of their files so imo there's always going to be options. Bear in mind that most agencies aren't multinational companies and resources are limited; it may become even more niche, but the computer as we know it still has a lot of mileage.

This is the way to get anti-trust shit.
Need to design FPGA computer to run Temple OS.... With WiFi, because God told me so to do.

Then they just need to merge with AT&T, Verizon, Chevron and ExxonMobil.
All this dependence on the cloud, but the state of network infrastructure is abysmal. AT&T and Verizon (now Frontier) have neglected large portions of their physical infrastructure. The cable ISPs are a meme for having poor service. Price hikes and unreliability are all people expect, not to mention a complete lack of competition in last mile delivery. 5g only makes sense because of the level of neglect in our infrastructure.
Cloud is a precarious position for all except large businesses who can afford the scale of network infrastructure required to have any appreciable degree of fault tolerance.
These. Cloud computing will be eternal and will never be stopped. Nobody will ever own anything ever again and the cloud dystopia will last forever. Nobody will fight back. We will all surrender. Literally everyone agrees it's over.
They will. In 15 years data will be fast enough so that everything will be on the cloud.
>there's always going to be options. There won't be because everything will be on the cloud. Did you read the post?
