In case anyone is curious if this would work, LTT tried it: https://youtu.be/minxwFqinpw

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.

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.
