#2Regarding Windows 10 in your browser, Azure Bastion rolled out recently and does exactly that: https://azure.microsoft.com/nl-nl/services/azure-bastion/

How is it unique and innovative if such services existed for over a decade (OnLive)?

There are quite a few attempts to that topic (Parsec Gaming, Shadow Gaming, ..)
I tried a few of them but as for latency relevant online gaming current solutions are rather meh.
For an old laptop I guess its alright and price for casual gaming is probably hard to beat (if renewing every 3-4 years hardware). But as with any cloud/rental after paying its gone.

#5I recently had the unfortunate situation of watching my girlfriend struggle with doing her job (QC for a AAA game publisher) via RDP (and over a VPN).
I looked at Parsec as a solution and it.. didn't work.
Although watching her do normal things over the RDP/VPN combo was still painful, writing emails or using internal chat applications was incredibly latency ridden..
But it made me think very seriously about cloud resources and how we interact with them, especially when it comes to writing text...
Does anyone know of any IDE that is purely remote? as in you type locally and it's automatically syncing in the background on save?
The idea of running your unit tests and compile jobs in the cloud is really appealing, and you don't incur the latency of rendering the UI remotely.

I discovered Eclipse Che at the last DevNexus and thought it was fairly neat.

In terms of IDEs, I think all of IntelliJ's have support for this kind of remote work. Or something close.
There's all sorts of ways to configure vim and a remote terminal to work like this, of you consider that an IDE.

#8> the Golang garbage collector is uncontrollable, so sometimes there are some suspicious long pauses. This greatly hurts the realtime-ness of this streaming application.
That doesn't sound ... inspiring confidence?

Most of the initial innovations seem to be in the hardware, e.g. controllers that hop over your PC/console, game servers in edge nodes, etc. They're incremental improvements, but my latency on Stadia gets down to single-digits at times (though is usually low-mid double-digits), which is something I never saw with OnLive (not a direct comparison since I have better Internet now).
There's some interesting software innovations that may or may not be implemented (I'm not sure?), but I haven't heard of other streaming platforms doing things like running games at significantly higher framerates (to minimize the time between player input and game response) and predicting button presses to buffer a stream before they happen. Those seem like innovations in the space, even if they're under a terrible umbrella of a name ("negative latency").
