Ask HN: Ubuntu desktop virtualizion service?
I run 2 VMs: one to access sensitive accounts, and another to access risky/questionable sites.
Every month, I reset the images to their original snapshots to get rid of any vulnerabilities.
Is there a cloud service that will let me spawn new desktops that I can remotely connect to, instead of having to run VMs on my own machine?

It is affordable so long as (1) you turn the machine off when you are not using it, and (2) you don't allocate a huge amount of storage. It is easy to attach a 500GB volume but you pay for that even when the server is shut down; the cost for 10GB of storage is almost nothing in comparison.
