"the cloud" and "software as a service" are the greatest swindles of the 21st century thus far
unless you can think of another?
this is a good time to mention how bittorrenting is not the cloud, even if the data appear to come out of the ether of the vast internet
@patience that's what I mean, like, to me "cloud" implies distributed and decentralised but the actual cloud is often at best only one of those things
@lambdagrrl nah, it is distributed and decentralized, but it isn't held or "mined" on some corporate server farm
