Well, technically anywhere from 5 to 40, but I still have a nice chance to grow old before libreboot starts building. Also, still slower than dial-up.
I’m imagining a 30 year old Pentium Pro server grinding away in a broom closet somewhere. It’s next to the one still running the old Space Jam website.
8 kbps should be enough for anyone
I was happy as shit if I had a 4KB connection,back in the day. Hell, my first modem was a 28,800 baud. IE, a theoretical maximum speed of 3.6KB.
Once upon a time I mirrored Project Gutenberg. As this was a pain having only 64kbit over ISDN, I was expecting great things from attending a LAN party where we actually had Ethernet speed connection to the internet.
When I started my mirroring script, though, it was not faster than at home. Turned out that the mirror host limited connections to clients in unknown networks to 64kbit.
Luckily I found another mirror host that had no such limits.
Guix user pains. The packages download at that speed.
It’s a tossup whether downloading Librewolf or building it will take longer
Just keep your code under 8 kb. Honestly bloat if you can’t do that /s
