screw the thin client and anything look like pc but no self hosted development tools

recently they were many thin clients software and hardware surfacing, using web as front end and cloud computing as back end, and they thought this is all pc users wanted. always online, data and application are fetch from cloud computing. this is not going to help computing industry overall, the moment we accept this system, there is no freedom anymore, anything going to be subscription model. the only thing that i proud of about computing is everyone has equal power, so long you have a simple hardware you are ready to write your own program. i see this is the fundamental concept of freedom in computing, removing that will make us as slave of the mighty evil empire, and see we are heading to that direction. stop it now, before this industry heading toward telecommunication direction, which is suck.
