I mean, instead of having your computer do the processing, do the computing, instead of having your computer do the heavy work, you send a request through the internet to a server with a supercomputer and it does your work, merely transmitting the information back. It would be like the computer equivalent of having someone else chew your breakfast for you and it would allow devices with shitty processors to get amazing output from amazing input that it wouldn't otherwise get.

You know this idea isn't new, right? You know this has been done since basically the invention of mainframes, where you only had thin clients that connected to it, but all processing was actually done on a remote and powerful machine.
>I'm high on marijuana.
We can tell.

That's what nVidia and Sony use with their "consoles". In every case you're still incredibly limited by high latency of the network and it's low bandwidth.
I mean, there's cases where that's used and it's applicable but not for a regular desktop user.

It's been tried, but it won't work somewhere with america-tier internet, and it's a barely viable business idea without immediately becoming scummy and shit.
