Anybody with experience of cloud computing?
On the Ubuntu website there used to be a section where you could log in and run a Ubuntu command-line session online.
It's not working now.
Are there any other sites like this (that you have tried) ...
where you log in, load a virtual operating system and run a script or whatever?
(There are some websites where you can run a shell in the browser, but that's not what this question is about)
Try StreamFab Downloader and download from Netflix, Amazon, Youtube! Or Try DVDFab and copy Blu-rays! or rip iTunes movies!

But it looks like the vps is intended for businesses... hosting websites and handling email etc.
Overkill for running an occasional linux script. -
VPS are not "for business" any more than Photoshop or Premiere.
Anybody can use one. It's just a tool (server type).
The alternative is a local VM on your desktop.Want my help? Ask here! (not via PM!)

My own PC isn't good enough to run a VM.
Maybe I need to find a friend with a *fast* PC, mount the Linux Live CD iso, then run the script.
Simples. -
I could run Linux VMs 10 years ago.
Use Sun VirtualBox and a good Ubuntu OS. I suggest Xubuntu.
I have that on several computers, including this one where I'm typing now.Want my help? Ask here! (not via PM!)
