Off the Mark by Mark Parisi for April 29, 2023

Are you cirrus? You’re just a phony stratus seeker.

Those two used photoshopped.

Shape shifters.

The app is nothing but vaporware

Storm clouds on the horizon.

The details are a bit cloudy.

Rows and floes of angel hair

And ice cream castles in the air

And feather canyons everywhere

I’ve looked at clouds that way

Two clouds throwing shade.

It’s fun to watch clouds change shapes as they drift across the sky.

I really don’t clouds at all.

Just a thought concerning a slightly different cloud: “The Cloud” is not a fluffy grey/white amorphous object floating in the sky above your head. Instead it consists of hundreds of thousands of data centers, aka “server farms,” located all over the world and connected via the internet.

“Cloud storage” is a method of storing computer data in logic pools (i.e., the cloud). The physical environment storing all that data is generally owned and managed by a hosting company (the provider). The storage space allotted to each used may be spread across multiple servers, sometimes in multiple locations.

The hosting company/provider is responsible for keeping the data available and accessible (for the individual people and organizations who rent the storage capacity and own the data stored) as well as keeping the physical environment(s) secured, protected, and running.

Well, so much for cloud computing.

Cloud filters

If they get together there will be rain…

They both look like Catfish!

I think their relationship is more like “Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs”….
