Have you considered getting a virtual private server from someplace like digital ocean or MS Azure or whatever? You might find that preferable for something to RDP into.
- PaulHoule 3y agoI’ve done it at times. In EC2 I’d probably want something like a M7i.8xlarge which would cost around $0.80 an hour for on demand pricing, which would be a good deal because I’d only actually spin it up when I was using it. (I use to go to hackathons with an Amazon Fire tablet back when Android has mouse support and the iPad didn’t and having a $10 cloud bill is cheap for having the sleekest bit of kit that anybody brings.) The thing is I do most of my software dev on a “gaming PC” I built myself that has a good graphics card. My RSS reader YOShInOn runs when I am awake and as a web app it is super responsive on my tablet. I just drank a coffee at the gas station and I am tapping this out on my iPad right now. It’s really convenient to use this machine even if I do have a moment sometimes when I’m not sure if the window I picked will open and have to suppress the urge to click again (which could make the window go away!)
