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.

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…..
