    spoilers for how it works in the video:

    Sadly it just crashes immediately because Google has measures in place to prevent this behavior, and the rest of the video is an ELI5 on swap space.

          Very much possible, but I’m aware of what swap is and how does it work. That’s my problem with videos in general - if it was an article, I can easily skim through the parts I know and read only parts that interest me.

            I totally understand. Articles are much better at actually finding information. Videos are more entertaining though. There’s nothing in that video that really couldn’t have been in an article.

      Thank you! I was curious but not ten-minute-video curious. I wonder if there’s a cloud provider that doesn’t block this sort of usage - could it work with onedrive/dropbox/etc?

        The video also explains why it doesn’t really work; the latency is so large, the system is better off getting the files from local storage.

          I kind of assumed that haha, this wouldn’t be something you’d do for practical purposes. Still fun though!
