interesting, as her service is illegal.

but well deserved, as it clearly shouldn’t be.

the ton of games doesn’t run natively, they run well, but through a translation layer (wine/proton)

Yup, that was what I understood it to be, I’ll admit to just skimming the article, but it seemed rather directly that?

Windows 365 is a service that streams a full version of Windows to devices. So far, it’s been limited to just commercial customers, but Microsoft has been deeply integrating it into Windows 11 already. A future update will include Windows 365 Boot, which will enable Windows 11 devices to log directly in to a Cloud PC instance at boot instead of the local version of Windows. Windows 365 Switch is also built into Windows 11 to integrate Cloud PCs into the Task View (virtual desktops) feature.

So if I don’t have an internet connection, I can’t even boot my computer?

While I personally hate this Idea as well, I have to admit, that there could certainly be rather significant upsides for users.
Cheap Chromebook-like Laptops, but can run Video Games, Video Encodings, Finite Element Analyses, Computational Fluid Dynamics etc no problem. “Your” PC can be accessible from your phone in a Pinch.
You open a weird Link and got a Virus? No problem, just roll back your “PC”
Your home floods/burns down? All the images from your children are still safe.
Never being bothered by needing a hardware upgrade.

I mean, it’s a currently approved PR

There’s also an active Issue about replacing captchas (which are often an issue privacy-wise) with a mCaptcha, where you computer does “Bitcoin-Like” useless calculations which the server easily can verify that you did.
So it would be much more costly to make a billion spam accounts

but your main community [email protected] does show up when you search for nsfw
https://lemmy.ml/c/[email protected] works as well.

so your instance would have to be on the allowlist, but do you have to allow communities as well?

Why don’t communities show up on lemmy?
[email protected] for example can’t be found if I search for the community porn under all.
https://lemmy.ml/c/[email protected]’t exist either, but shouldn’t it?
Is it a federation thing? does lemmy.ml not federate with lemmynsfw?
Is it too new to show up still?

what is the catch there?

Is scaling the server a largely financial issue, or not? @[email protected]

could you reasonably confidently say that you could 10x the amount of users for something like 1000$/mo on liberapay?
If so, would you mind setting a “goalpost” for the community to help lift the financial burden?
