You will own nothing and you will be happy. Bezos already laid the ground for this when he mused about everything living in the cloud a while ago. And where things are going with hardware prices, they think they can make it happen sooner rather than later, is my guess.
They will put a stop to this by jacking up prices of hdds insanely high. You will have no choice. Hdds dont last long, and they are being made with worse quality every year.
I guess we can figure out how to chain together 40+ 500gb hdds somehow…
My phone has more power, storage and ram than my 2008 gaming PC had.
My next phone will be a Linux one and if possible it’ll also be my “main PC”, maybe it won’t work that well but today my main PC is a 6500T and it’s enough for me so my hopes are a bit up :-)
