Would anyone pay for like cheap hosting if it only cost you say ~$0.50 USD per month for a basic space to run your website, twtxt feed, yarn pod, whatever? 🤔 Of course we’re talking slices of a server here in terms of memory and cpu, so this would be 10 milliCores of CPU + 64MB of Memory, more than enough to run quite a bit of shit™ 🤣 (especially when you don’t need to run or manage a full OS)
@prologic@twtxt.net hmmm, I might.
@prologic@twtxt.net careful there, especially with that “whatever” 😂. There is no way you can run all that on a “10 milliCores of CPU + 64MB of Memory”. It will take more than that, and it will cost more than $0.50 USD per month.
@eapl.me@eapl.me What if it were also possible to “pause” your apps and only pay a much smaller amount for say storage? When you use it again you pay something like tiny amount per hour
The entire point would be that you don’t get an antire machine, but a container.
@prologic@twtxt.net are you trying to reinvent cloud computing?!?
@abucci@anthony.buc.ci Sort of. But, if you look around, and I mean look really hard, no-one really officer this kind of “small slice” computing anywhere. Docker tried to do this once and failed. Containers as a Service – CaaS.
